The Rules



How To Nominate:
Quote the post with the card you want to nominate. Delete everything in that post other than the card. Copy and paste your quote into a post on this thread.
If you did it right the quote tag should link to the original post.

What's Eligible?
Any fan-designed M:TG card posted since the most recent CotW thread went live is eligible. It doesn't even have to be the first time the card was posted. Yes, Un cards are valid. No, Yugioh cards are not.

What's Not Eligible?
  • Nominating your own cards. You can only nominate cards by other people.
  • Nominating a card from your own repost, regardless of whether or not the original post was yours.
  • Nominations that result from collusion. If a nomination is made in exchange for some sort of favor, or under some sort of threat, then the nomination is void.
  • Cards that have already won CotW are not eligible for future CotWs.
  • Nominations that I consider to be jokes or trolling.

A Note On Contests:
Many contest holders feel that having an entrant nominated for CotW will skew the results of their contest. To prevent this while still allowing those cards their chance at nomination, any card submitted to a contest is eligible for nomination to CotW as though the date the contest (or pertinent round of the contest) ended was the date the card was posted.

Asura Intervention
Instant (R)
Whenever a source would deal damage this turn, prevent that damage, gain that much life, and draw a card.
As the decree to suspend the battle echoed across the sikes, the flying warmachines of Esper and the wyrms of Jund alike descended to sit down in quiet contemplation.


Displacement
Instant
Creatures phase out.

Aurelia's Leadership :4::w::r:

Prevent all damage that would be dealt by creatures you don't control this turn.
Whenever a creature you control would deal combat damage this turn, it deals twice that much damage instead.

Vile Betrayal is neat but I feel like Alligator tears and crying wolf have much more utility.
