When Woodland Animator comes into play, you may untap target Forest you control. It becomes a 3/3 green Treefolk creature until end of turn.
3/3 |
I like it too but I think this should be rare, it's a hastey 3/3 for 4 or a 3 for 1 when they don't see it coming, a bit too powerful for an uncommon imho! |

Here is my go at creating my own mechanic...
Magnitude X (When you cast this spell, you may put a copy of
it on the stack for every X artifacts that you control)
Ionic Storm 1:r::r::r:
Sorcery -- Rare
Magnitude 1
Deal 1 damage to each creature and each player.
Metal makes the best conductor for chaos
Magma Metal Monstrosity :r::r::r:
Sorcery -- Uncommon
Magnitude 4
As an additional cost to cast Magma Metal Monstrosity, sacrifice an artifact. Put a 3/1 red elemental creature token with haste onto the battlefield.
Might of the Machines 4:g:
Instant -- Rare
Magnitude 6
Target creature you control gets +6/+6 and trample until end turn.
Metallic Growth 1:g:
Instant -- Common
Magnitude 4
You may only cast metallic growth if you control an artifact.
Search your library for an artifact land card and put it onto the battlefield tapped.
Dead Smog :b::b::b:
Sorcery -- rare
Magnitude 2
Target player discards a card, sacrifices a creature, and sacrifices a land.
Death Crunch :2:b::b::b:
Instant -- common
Magnitude 5
Destroy target creature.
Metallic Dreams 1:u::u:
Instant -- rare
Magnitude 1
Draw a card, then discard a card.
Glass-Glossed Footing :1::u:
instant -- uncommon
Magnitude 4
Return target creature to its owners hand.

Lightning Eruption
3RR
Sorcery
Lightning Eruption deals 4 damage to target player. Lightning Eruption then deals 4 damage to each creature controlled by that player.
Burn 3 (Discard this card and any number of cards from your hand and draw the same amount of cards from your deck.)
If Lightning Eruption was Burned, it deals 8 damage instead.
My submission:
Kavu Ravager
5RR
Creature-Kavu Berserker
When this card is Burned, you may put it into play with two -1/-1 counters and two time counters on it. At the beginning of your upkeep, remove a time counter from this card. When this card has no more time counters , remove the two -1/-1 counters and put a +1/+1 counter on it.
Burn 4R (Discard this card and any number of cards from your hand and draw the same amount of cards from your deck.)
6/5

The idea is to have creatures evolve Pokemon/Digimon style into bigger dudes. Kinda like level up, but that looked clunky and counters are annoying.
Gust Weirding 1U

1. design of mechanic/power level - 45/50 solid mechanic, my only concern is it concentrated on tribal stuff.
2. flavor of the card - 15/20 :: i like weirds liked the card, a deduction on not having a flavour text.
3. correct rarity - 0/20 :: no rarity
4. constructed playable/ fun factor - 10/10 i don't see it heavy play but definitly fun design.

My new mechanic is Manalink (Damage dealt by this creature to players also causes you to untap that many lands.)
It would likely be an ability found on green and blue creatures for the most part and a handful of red pinger style creatures. White and black already have Lifelink dominated so they don't need this.
This could be delivered at instant speed similar to Hunter's Insight.

Feedback G (As an additional cost to play this spell, you may pay G. If you do, exile it instead of putting it into your graveyard on resolution. At the beginning of your next upkeep, put any cards exiled this way into your hand.)
Obviously a variant on buyback. The fact that you can only do it once per turn means the mana cost doesn't have to be prohibitive.
Entry:
Ruinous Advance (R)
2RR
Sorcery
Untap all creatures that attacked this turn. After this main phase, there is an additional combat phase followed by an additional main phase.
Feedback - Sacrifice a land
Nobody does "scorched earth" quite as enthusiastically as a goblin. |
1. design of mechanic/power level - 47/50 :: like the way you sprung something out of buyback
2. flavor of the card - 16/20 good card, i like the card text, the flavourtext threw me off a little
3. correct rarity -15/20 :: cards like this is in the border of mythic and rare. IMHO it is a mythic cause it powerful.

"Ride" is an activated and static ability of mount cards. “Ride [cost]” means “[Cost]: Attach this creature to target creature you control with toughness less or equal to the mount's toughness. If at any time the rider toughness becomes larger than the mount's, destroy this creature.
Activate this ability only any time you could cast a sorcery.”
