    The DCC: JUNE 11TH, 2019

    Welcome to the DCC!
    If you have any questions or comments, feel free to post in the DCC Discussion Thread.


    How To Play


    How does this card-making game work? It's simple! Whenever your card receives a vote in the day's poll, you receive [1] point for the month. If your card ends up with the most votes for that day, you will receive [2] additional points for the month. In the event of a tie, each person who tied receives [1] additional point. At the end of each month, the person with the most points on the scoreboard wins that month, then the scoreboard is cleared for the next month. You can participate in as many or as few days as you want in any month.


    Rules


    • Each day you may post any card you want. On the next day all of the posted cards will be put into a poll the thread as long as your card didn't get disqualified - see the next point for more details. If you post more than one card in a DCC thread, only the first card you post will be taken.
    • When you vote, you need to make exactly two votes for two different people. Vote for the cards that are listed in the first post, not other cards being posted in the thread. If you notice that you've only voted for one person, include your second vote in a post, even if you're not submitting a card.
    • If you want to change your vote for any reason, post that change in the day's thread (you can include it with your card if you want). Changed votes in the discussion thread will be ignored.
    • Voting for only one person, for three or more people, or for yourself will earn you an asterisk by your name in the monthly leaderboard. So will failing to vote if you've posted a card. (We're not going to do anything about people who don't vote or post cards; that would be kind of silly.) This indicates that you're on probation for the next 21 days. If you're on probation and you make another improper vote, your card will be disqualified. Repeated disqualification is grounds for warnings and/or infractions for not following the game rules, so please don't do it.
    • Voting for everything in the poll will be grounds for a lifetime ban from the DCC. Don't do it. It just wastes the thread creators' time.
    • If you wish to post a render, please use the hyperlink option when posting your card and make the card name the image link. Renders are usually large enough to clog up the list, so submit a text-formed card and (optionally) a link in the name to the render.
    • This thread is just for your card submission. Take your questions/comments to our discussion thread. If it's a question, comment, or complaint about probation, PM me instead and I'll explain it.
    • Anyone can post the new thread for the day. When you post it, make sure that:
      • You have a poll in the thread;
      • You include everyone's cards (excluding cards that have been disqualified);
      • The poll is marked as public and multiple choice with a one-day time limit; and
      • You update the leaderboard with the previous day's scores.
    (An easy way to post the new thread is to hit the multiquote button on every post in the previous day's thread, then click Post Reply. Select everything in this post, copy it, and then paste it into the first post for a new thread. You'll have to clean up a few small things, like quote tags around the opening post and the previous day's cards.)

    ...his dog, he's just beautiful... I wish you all the best with him, and I'm certain he will give you all the love that my own dog has given me for seven years, and even more! My own dog was a cross between a German Shepherd and a Pincher. He came from a dog refuge (always do that if you're looking for a dog, no need to buy it, there are so many in refuges and they're looking for you, just as you're looking for them) and he died from cancer last September (2018, on the morning of Saturday 22nd, exactly seven days before my birthday...) at 8 (still so young) after seven years in my family, but he's still alive in my heart. I still love him, and wherever he might be now, I know that he still loves me too.
    Honorable mention for chochky (I just love the card but it's missing rarity).

    Apparently, I have a thing for modal cards this month... This is intended as a mirror to my card from yesterday (Coming to Life), in fact these two cards together as a fuse split card (originally called Coming//Going) was one of my early designs for MCC round 1 .

    The DCC: JUNE 8TH, 2019

    Welcome to the DCC!
    If you have any questions or comments, feel free to post in the DCC Discussion Thread.


    How To Play


    How does this card-making game work? It's simple! Whenever your card receives a vote in the day's poll, you receive [1] point for the month. If your card ends up with the most votes for that day, you will receive [2] additional points for the month. In the event of a tie, each person who tied receives [1] additional point. At the end of each month, the person with the most points on the scoreboard wins that month, then the scoreboard is cleared for the next month. You can participate in as many or as few days as you want in any month.


    Rules


    • Each day you may post any card you want. On the next day all of the posted cards will be put into a poll the thread as long as your card didn't get disqualified - see the next point for more details. If you post more than one card in a DCC thread, only the first card you post will be taken.
    • When you vote, you need to make exactly two votes for two different people. Vote for the cards that are listed in the first post, not other cards being posted in the thread. If you notice that you've only voted for one person, include your second vote in a post, even if you're not submitting a card.
    • If you want to change your vote for any reason, post that change in the day's thread (you can include it with your card if you want). Changed votes in the discussion thread will be ignored.
    • Voting for only one person, for three or more people, or for yourself will earn you an asterisk by your name in the monthly leaderboard. So will failing to vote if you've posted a card. (We're not going to do anything about people who don't vote or post cards; that would be kind of silly.) This indicates that you're on probation for the next 21 days. If you're on probation and you make another improper vote, your card will be disqualified. Repeated disqualification is grounds for warnings and/or infractions for not following the game rules, so please don't do it.
    • Voting for everything in the poll will be grounds for a lifetime ban from the DCC. Don't do it. It just wastes the thread creators' time.
    • If you wish to post a render, please use the hyperlink option when posting your card and make the card name the image link. Renders are usually large enough to clog up the list, so submit a text-formed card and (optionally) a link in the name to the render.
    • This thread is just for your card submission. Take your questions/comments to our discussion thread. If it's a question, comment, or complaint about probation, PM me instead and I'll explain it.
    • Anyone can post the new thread for the day. When you post it, make sure that:
      • You have a poll in the thread;
      • You include everyone's cards (excluding cards that have been disqualified);
      • The poll is marked as public and multiple choice with a one-day time limit; and
      • You update the leaderboard with the previous day's scores.
    (An easy way to post the new thread is to hit the multiquote button on every post in the previous day's thread, then click Post Reply. Select everything in this post, copy it, and then paste it into the first post for a new thread. You'll have to clean up a few small things, like quote tags around the opening post and the previous day's cards.)

    Archimediesx - once again because of Quality mistakes, in this case the name should be bolded and there should be no full stop after exalted, too bad because I like that card very much.
    void_nothing - no problems with the card, I like it as it is, I just liked those I voted more.
    Flatline - I'm in love with the flavor of that card (it heavily reminds me of both Ormos and another custom plane I still have in my mind), less with the mechanics.
    I see multiple modal cards today. I had already planned to post this today, but let me join the party too!

    Feline Charm GW
    Sorcery (U)
    Choose one —
    • Create a green and white 2/2 Cat creature token.
    • Cats you control get +2/+1 until end of turn.
    • You gain life equal to the number of Cats you control.
    The roar of the king of the pride makes Arahbo itself tremble.

    @Archemediesx...I would like your card a lot better if it only triggered whenever a creature you control attacked alone.
    @MamaThana...What is setting the value of X? Is your card supposed to cost xBBB?
    @Subject16...Hmmmm. Except in a few niche scenarios, why would anyone choose to not just draw the card? Is this just supposed to be a hellbent enabler, or am I missing something?

    Inside Job 4B
    Instant (U)
    Inside Job costs 4 less to cast if it targets a creature that shares a name with a creature you control.
    Destroy target creature.

    Momentumcraft 3RW
    Instant (R)
    Choose one or both -
    • You may change any targets of target spell or ability.
    • All damage that would be dealt this turn to target creature or planeswalker is dealt to another target creature or planeswalker instead.

    Utopian Bounder 1UG
    Creature - Merfolk Mutant (U)
    Flying.
    When Utopian Bounder enters the battlefield, return target creature to its owner's hand.
    Metamorphosis (Whenever this creature deals combat damage to a player or planeswalker, exile cards from the top of your library until you exile a creature with power equal to or less than this creature's power. Put that card onto the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter on it, then put all cards exiled in this way on the bottom of your library in a random order, then exile this creature.)

    Sad Days Are Upon Us 2UUUU
    Sorcery (M)
    Split Second
    Target opponent cannot tap permanents until your next combat phase.
    Punishment (When this card is put into a graveyard from anywhere, exile it. Any player may chose to cast it from exile for free. If they do, they must choose an opponent to name a number less than their current life total. They lose that much life.)
