Riptide Prison 6
Artifact
When ~ comes into play, choose a creature type.
Whenever a creature of the chosen type would come into play, instead return it to it's owner's hand.

You name elemental, thus preventing Mulldrifter madness.

i'm seeing a problem with his because the last part of the resolution of a creature spell is the creature coming into play. the trigger cannot be placed onto the stack until the spell is resoved completely and you receive priority again ( Magic rules 408.1f ). hence the creature would come into play before you're trigger would hit.


I would reword it's 2nd trigger to say, Whenever a creature spell of the chosen type is played, you may pay 1. If you do, return that spell to it's owner's hand."


Favor of the Gods 2RW
Enchantment
Whenever a creature becomes the target of a spell or ability, put a favor counter on it.
Creatures with favor counters on them are Indestructible and get +2/+0.
At the end of turn, remove all favor counters from all creatures.

first, awesome card blue. the dredge/cascade combo works nicely and it costs 6 to boot. and you could have a 11/1 if you wanted at some point. this card could do amazing things. especially with bloodbond march.

also, the land above i made in the set i'm making is working with untap mechanics during opponents turns. kind of like using the land during your turn, and it untapping during an opponents turn. i'm also making creatures and artifacts as well. here is a card made to combat the mechanic.

Impatience 2R
Enchantment
Whenever an opponent untaps a permanent he or she controls during your turn, Impatience deals 1 damage to that player.

i keep looking at this card and trying to find something bad...but i can't really. at first i thought it needed to cost 1 more, but with it being legendary prevents abuse. it stay's true to the vaishino bounce. first strike was a nice touch to keep it living. a 3/1 first strike, haste for 3 is nice. great job.

and now...a dual land cycle i've been working on...

Temple of the Titans
Land
~ comes into play tapped and doesn't untap during your untap step.
At the beginning of each of your opponent's upkeep, untap ~.
T: Add R or W to your mana pool.

Don't Point UR
Instant
Whenever a spell or ability specifies a creature type, counter that spell. ~ deals 1 damage to that spells controller.

i like it. cost effective. of course Raijin is one of my favorite DotA characters as well.
the only thing that i might do is add, "Whenever a spell or activated ability is countered this way, remove a time counter from ~." you could remove the casting cost and make it to where the suspend cost must be 3 or more. that would give you more to add to the base creature.

Hidden Phylactery 1BB
Legendary Artifact
Flash
You're life total is 0.
1BBB: Hidden Phylactery is Indestructible until end of turn.

It's Vanishing now. it replaced Fading so that they could just use Time counters for 2 mechanics.

It's pretty balanced. takes 5 turns to go off. only reason i see that it's legendary is to drop them back to back turn 2 and 3.

Invoking the Mana Prime WUBRG
Sorcery
Remove ~ from the game and put 10 charge counters on it.
Whenever you play a spell, remove a charge counter from ~ and add 1 mana of any color to your mana pool. Play this ability only if ~ is removed from the game.
When the last charge counter is removed from ~, return it to your hand.

Well Damning Word was skipped, so here

Blanketing Clause 2UUWW

Permanents target opponent control gain all permanent types until end of turn.

b/c Heatsink Elemental was skipped

Banzai 2RR
Legendary Creature - Goblin Berserker
Provoke
Attacks each turn if able.
Whenever ~ becomes blocked, switch the blocking creature's power and toughness until end of turn.
3/3

as for boggart enlistment

The Hand That Feeds You 1RRR
Enchantment
If a spell or ability an opponent controls would cause you to lose control of a permanent, return that permanent to owner's hand.

Come One At a Time RGW
Enchantment
Whenever a creature you control is forced to block, prevent all combat damage that would be done to that creature. That creature may block any number of attacking creatures and has, ",T: This creature deals damage equal to its toughness to all blocked creatures."

Overflowing Disaster - i like it. instant speed for a wipe fest. i want it to be a -3/-3, but that would probably warrant it being a sorcery. however it's plenty easy to do some extra damage. great balance and design.

Sunrise Prophet WW
Creature - Human Cleric
Whenever Sunrise Prophet comes into play, name a creature card.
When the named creature card comes into play, you gain 5 life. Return Sunrise Prophet to owner’s hand.
1/1

More Than You Could Chew 4RG
Enchantment
Whenever more than one creature comes into play at the same time under your control, creatures you control get +3/+3 and Haste until end of turn.

Interrogator of the Depths - i like the loss of life touch. nicely balanced cost wise. only reason i can see why it is legendary is Merrow Commerce probably. well done.

Earth Warden G
Creature - Human Druid
When ~ comes into play, untap target land.
1/1

Death Binder :sym2b::sym2g::symgb:Creature - Demon Druid
Flying, Trample
Whenever ~ deals combat damage to a player, you may sacrifice a land. If you do, search your library for up to two basic land cards and put them into play. Shuffle your library.
3/3

xRR(R/W)(B/R)

Indecisiveness 2RR
Enchantment
Whenever a spell or ability requires a player to make a choice, counter that spell or ability. ~ deals 2 damage to that player.

it's not bad to be honest. the only thing i would change is make it only count non-token creatures in play. maybe even limiting it to creatures in play. you would still be able to shuffle a Birds of Paradise for a Progenitus. in shards block i think it would see play. swapping your monocolored creatures for your multicolored fatties.

Drain the Node UUU

Counter target spell. The next spell played this turn costs 3 more to play.
