Last Week's Winner



The poll: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=28684
The quip: It's a miracle! Or a well-laid plot. Either way, Hello World exiled the competition.
The Winner


The Contenders

Artillery Dreadnought
Artifact — Vehicle
Whenever ~ attacks, it deals X damage to up to X targets, where X is the number of times it was crewed this turn.
Crew 3
The consulate would never be lacking firepower if not for their lack of manpower.
3/6

Banner of Past Saints -
Artifact - Equipment
Equipped creature has ward , where X is one plus the number of creature cards exiled by ~.
Whenever equipped creature attacks, you may pay . If you do, equipped creature gets +2/+2 and has indestructible until end of turn. Then, create a copy of each creature card exiled by ~ tapped and attacking. At the beginning of the next end step, exile the equipped creature and all copies created by ~.
Equip

Manaplasm Residual

Creature - Ooze
Trample
This creature enters with two +1/+1 counters on it.
Whenever a spell is countered, double the number of +1/+1 counters on this creature.
When Igor the Lab technician decided to mix up the leftovers of the day's trials, he was expecting to create a harmless brown goo. He was mostly correct, but sadly for him, not completely.
0/0

AvalancheMountainous Barrage deals 2 damage to any target. If you cast another spell with the same name as this spell this turn, it deals 4 damage instead.




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.

At the beginning of your precombat main phase, you may draw a card. If you do, end the turn.

It was a fair call. I got sick and took some days off from work so the days of the week sort of lost all meaning.

Preserved Lotus would be a pretty sick design if it used Shield counters instead.
