Is it just me or did the last round's judge have no idea what he was talking about - that round was run more like modify-a-card than create-a-card with the way he judged...didn't even have a sense of humor...

Anyways, enough with my useless discontented ramblings, heres my card:

Enchantment - Aura (U)
Enchant Permanent
Decree of Singularity can't enchant basic lands.
Flash
Enchanted permanent and all permanents with the same name as that permanent are legendary.

Agreed.

Interesting card. One blue mana to destroy target permanent if another permanent of the same name is in play. |

Thanks man!
Yeah i know it's a little powerful, that's why i nerfed it, the original version had "discard a card at random", but it felt too much like a rare. However, anything that lowers its 1 power makes it easily killable through blocking because it doesn't have any kind of evasion (unlike the similar rare hypnotic specter), so i believe uncommon is fair.
PS: I'm proud of the flavour tbh xD |

Ok, i'll make an in-depth analysis as to explain why i decided not to nerf it further:
(Assuming that the card is implemented in the current format)
Reason number 1: It would lose flavour: If i had decided to make it a 2/3 or 1/3 and eventually monocolored, it would prejudice the concept of the card, thus i decided not to.
Reason number 2: It would be unplayable: You are comparing it to ohran viper, a card that not only is monocolored but also existed in a format where removal did not include lightning bolt, incinerate, gftt, dismember, searing blaze, etc. What i'm saying is that ohran viper would have ZERO chance of playability in the current format, even as an uncommon.
Reason number 3: There was no need to: The card forces you to play BG, which is not that strong of a color combination right now... it could find its place as a singleton in pod builds, but it certainly wouldnt cause the impact oblivion ring caused as an uncommon.
So, i decided to nerf it from "discards a random card" to "discards a card", and that seems enough to me.
But let's see what the judge thinks xD |

Totem Armor
If a source would deal damage to enchanted creature, prevent that damage. The source's controller draws cards equal to the damage prevented this way. |

yeah, it costs 2W but has a narrower application than oblivion ring. i was just dreaming of a card that hits both splinter twin, valakut, and sometimes even caw and steel. the current t2 has a hard-on for duplication. (see Doubling Chant) |
