    Shinobi: Great! Neat combo of mechanics. I would just make it mono red or black, as mono blue shouldn't get a huge direct damage spell like that anymore 8

    Iquati Bookmark 4
    Artifact R
    Recall 2 (If this would be put from your library to your graveyard, you may cast it for 2)
    If you would would draw a card, return a card at random from your graveyard to your hand.
    If a card that would be put into your graveyard, exile it.

    Next: another future sight variant.

    Nether Demon 3B
    Creature - Demon M
    Clarity (This enters the battlefield with a +1/+1 counter on it for each colorless mana spent to cast it.)
    Spells cost 3 more to cast.
    These days, some wizards are finding that they have a little too much sanity left at the end of their spells.
    2/2

    IIW:Yawn

    Prismatic Custodian had me right up until the Rhystic clause. I mean, it's a 6 mana creature, can't you let it just Quirion Dryad for multicolorspells? Allowing opponents to interfere is counterintuitive, awkward and frustrating. also would have been cleaner as a 0/0, 1/1 or 2/2 than a 1/3. Having non-symmetrical p/t on a +1/+1 counter creature forces players to recalculate more than necessary. 7/10

    Starke, Cateran Usurper B
    Legendary Creature- Human Mercenary
    You cannot play Starke, Cateran Usurper from your hand.
    Activated abilities of Mercenary permanents you control cost 2 less.
    Red and black creature cards you own that aren't on the battlefield are Mercenaries.
    3/3

    Roving Eye of Upperclassman 4B
    Creature - Eye R
    Non-Eye creatures you control can't attack.
    Whenever Roving Eye of Upperclassman becomes blocked by a creature, destroy all creatures with Affection tokens on them.
    Then gain control of that creature and put an Affection token on it. Creatures with Affection tokens on them are Eyes.
    3/6

    Quote from Alabran
    Monsoon - URG
    Enchantment - [r]

    At the beginning of each player's upkeep, that player puts a Deluge counter on a land of their choice. Those lands are Islands as long as they have Deluge counters on them.

    IIW: Choose someone else to judge.


    Have you seen quicksilver fountain?

    Drowning UUB
    Enchantment- Aura R
    Enchant player
    At the beginning of enchanted players upkeep, that player puts X cards from the top of their library into their graveyard, where X is the number of cards in their graveyard.
    Shuffle Drowning and enchanted players graveyard into their owner's libraries if you lose more than five life in a turn.

    IIW: Attack target creature.

    UB is likely broken, as it tutors/screws opponents perpetually. RG on is awkward, as the Frenzy ability is just worse than the green one all the time.

    Daiches
    I like them, but the UB is WAY better than the GW. Sure the GW discourages attacking, but without vigilance it's just a wall. The UB guy can do that too, a 3/2 is a pretty good blocker, but it also allows for a beat down. It would have been more interesting if GW had vigilance, or if the other creature was a 4/1 UR guy

    Timothy, Mimeslayer
    Defenders should have defender, not haste. These guys are fine, if unexciting. Both are pretty boring without the other

    bloodyspasm
    I see what you did there. Again, these guys are fine, but unexciting. And they are fairly Meh creatures without their supporter.

    Summon_Legend
    Not sure I really see how these two fit together. Sure they're both 2/3s for 2, and the WB one kind of hoses the other. But then, the WB one kind of hoses everyone, that guy is super annoying. I mean, he hold off an entire army by himself, and just wrecks limited unless you have immediate removal.

    Piar
    Boring, but nuanced. I like that despite having symmetrical abilities, the two play very differently. An elegant pair.

    Enoch
    Interesting, goblins don't strike me as diplomats. Elves don't typically reach, that's more of a treefolk/spider thing. These are fine, but feel clunkier than some of the other designs.


    WINNER: Piar!

    Stabbish, Cactacae General

    Whenever Stabbish becomes tapped, it deals 1 damage to target creature or player and 2 damage to you.

    Cactus: it's a vegetable, look it up.

    Riddle Master- It would be a difficult subgame if it only happened once, but the problem is that after the first time you activate it, you get to know basically everything except the top of the deck. So why not make it "guess the top card of your opponent's deck?" That'd be a lot easier. Also, the stats are really low, considering how hard it is to win. 2/3 flyier that did that effect when it attacked would still be fine at 3. 5/10

    Concussive Wake Chain is interesting. A "Ripple" effect that you have some control over. Having the cost be exiling cards seems random though, and I don't think the ability really needs it, usually. The card itself is neat, I like that it deals damage directly to planeswalkers. Wouldn't it be more elegant to just have it deal 3 to everyone, though? 7/10

    Humify 1G
    Sorcery C
    Explode (When you cast this spell, you may copy it any number of times.)
    Exile target card in a graveyard
    You gain 1 life



    Next: Another card with Explode
