I dunno. I like the sorcery/instant path personally. It seems like she's doing something, not being enchanted.
Thinking a bit ahead though:
We all have to think like MaRo here to get the card made, because when its time to submit mechanics, he gets to choose which ones go up to vote... I think that the card's art matches black more than any other color. Perhaps maybe even multicolor black white or black red... but black feels more in flavor of the card. So when its time to submit mechanics and you want yours to be a contender, choose a black mechanic.
I went with enchantment, because an instand/sorcery is easier to neuter. And plus, it would be a nice change with an enchantment.
I think it could definitely be a White or Black card. It's completely weird with a blue frame, and with green and red you're streching it a bit in terms of pleasing to the eye.
After looking at the mock ups provided by LordOfDeath, I think the art, as it is right now, looks best on black, second best on green. It looks a bit funky in blue and red and doesn't feel right with the white. I wasn't that surprised with how the art looked in the different colors though... I never did understand why so many people said that the art looks white. I always thought it looked like a black card for the most part.
Well, I picked 'creature' for the card type...but it doesn't look like that's going to win.
At least the art I was hoping for won. It was the only one that looked like a magic card.
Instant/sorcery would be best. Enchantment would be fine. Creature would be weird.
It looks the good on green, black, and white. It could fit mechanicly with those colors as well.
It doesn't look that bad on red, but it doesn't looks like a red spell. Blue is kinda wrong, although I am not sure why.
Quote from The Squirle master »
I vote enchantment. We've already done a creature, and instants/sorceries can't be reanimated
Well, aside from Yawgmoth's Will, and everyone knows how much jank that is, there is Recoup and several cards like Regrowth and Eternal Witness that recurse cards in your graveyard.
Besides, I think this looks like it could be a reanimating effect of some kind. Instead of something to reanimate, it could be something that reanimates.

I think it's a combination of the white magic spilling out of her hand + the mothering almost-smile on her face.
i thought it looked like a enchant creature, like the dust is coating her and giving her something like aprotective shell.... i wish 4 had won, it would be a great enchantment.
cause.. i would love it as an enchantment.. but sadly in the current environment enchantments are considered too slow so chances people pick it as an enchantment are really low..
and if it's a creature.. it'll probably be a weakling with many abilities.. when i prefer a powerhouse/timmy creature with the standard fighting skills (a finisher with things like trample, regenerate, strikes (first or double) and such) more than a weakling with unusual abilities

I really dont care what type of card it ends up being, as long as all of these promotional cards, and by that i mean any card not made by the designers etc, are playable. I think the way it will be the most playable though is if it is either a creature pushed for WW or a powerful enchantment, but it is hard for enchantments to see much play, so it will have to see quite a bit of play.

Bah, I actually like #7 the best of those. It and #8 had the best possibilities for cards, but since this thing won... I'd like to say Creature ( come on white sorceress queen!) but i think Enchantment would be more fun to build.

It was easily the best artwork out of them all. I picked instant or sorcery, I think thier is more versitily that way. I would like to see it as a black, white or blue card. I just hope it is playable. Neither of the other cards have had much of a impact. Cruciable does see play in T1, but Forgotten Ancient was a bust. Just make it interesting and playable I think if this 1 isn't played that people may get uninterested with the process and stop partisipating.

I think I'm going to go with Enchantment. Enchantment is the choice that calls out to me.
eh... whadda you know? :biggrin3:
oooooh maybe they'll make it a new enchant world! those were always a big hit with the kids!
i can see it now, as soon as the news hits that it's a new enchant world the cries of "they're ruining magic! I'll never play again!" will be heard echoing through the city streets...
Eh, I voted Instant or Sorcery as well. I think any of the three have potential to make a cool card, but as has already been stated several times, we've already done a Creature, and I'm not a big fan of Enchantments.

"...because without beer, things do not seem to go as well."
The art does not really look like anything but possibly an enchantment. It would probably look best black or maybe green in my opinion. Maybe something like (off the top of my head):
Yea, the obvious babe art won. Who saw that coming (shame on you for voting with your stick).
I will say this, looking at the quick card post someone posted with the art, it looks way better than I thought it would on a white card. I was sure the coloring would make it look putrid (lack of coloring with a white border, that is), but it looks pretty good.
BUT - why is everyone cropping off the top of her head? Hello, framing? I am no art student, but even I know you don't do that to make a pleasing image. Without the original in front of me to look at, I have to assume it is because the original has the head cropped off.
I chose instant/sorc only because hot chicks normally don't stick around :-p
I think it would be a cool enchantment... I think White with some effects that could be green... how about...

It could very easily work with, and be versitile for, all 3 types.
but i ended up chosing Instant/sorcery.
cause.. i would love it as an enchantment.. but sadly in the current environment enchantments are considered too slow so chances people pick it as an enchantment are really low..

I personally voted for enchantment because I love lasting effects. I want to make this some kind of tool for white-based control personally.
