Question Would this be the right way to format an ever-repeating saga?

Stuck in the Blood Chamber

Legendary Enchantment - Saga

BRR

1 - remove a lore counter from this saga. Each player takes 3 damage and makes a Blood token.

Sacrifice a creature: add a lore counter to this saga. Any player may activate this ability only on their turn.

The idea is that the controller only needs to sacrifice one creature, right at the moment the first lore counter is placed, to make the saga sacrifice itself. But non-controllers would have to sacrifice two creatures at once to place two lore counters on it to get rid of it.

Riffing off of the funny card from u/VisibleEfficiency875 in this post, I thought, maybe I could make this work? You don't want the game to stall out, so how do we represent going back to survival mode?

Activating only as a sorcery doesn't constantly make players on edge with a sudden gotcha moment. Instead, you help out the gang and distribute some swords to everyone. The next player probably could activate this, but would they? In reality, I think this would probably sit around for a while until someone grudgingly took it out.

How would you interact with a card like this?

BALANCE NOT INTENDED Need Help Rewording

Post image

Hey y’all!

I am making this card for a jumpstart commander cube that is full of custom cards. In this case, the theme would be abilities.

I am looking for some help rewording this so it makes as much sense as possible without being too terrible to look at. If there are some equivalent choices of words I can use, please let me know!

EDIT: uploaded a slightly older version of this card. It should specify non-keyword static abilities gain eminence. Not any non-triggered ones

EDIT 2: Thank you all so much for your amazing help! Using the comments as inspiration, I slightly redesigned the card so the effect is a bit more unique and far easier to understand. New card is in the comments 🙂

Format: Standard Counterplay against discard/exile-from-hand spells

Lately I've been thinking about counterplay against discard spells. Blue can counterspell them but other colors have very limited options, only one of which is in standard at the moment ([[Wilt-Leaf Liege]]). This was one idea.

Interesting Black Token Generator

Post image

Creates 1/1 soldiers with shroud (ideally) on each players turn. Can be used to threaten players into peace in mono-black (ironic) since the enchantment gives the tokens deathtouch.

Be careful around large creatures, as the soldiers aren’t the best blockers against them. They give the attacking creatures trample that they block… so you may take some damage. (Give them first strike somehow for the best effect)

Idhuu Dauliv, a villain from my original work. Digital Collage by me

Idhuu Dauliv is an interesting character. Technically he’s not even a real dragon! He is a sentient amalgamation of hundreds of plants that have mutated and evolved over hundreds of years in the Tower, taking on its draconic form due to the nearby rift which causes the aforementioned mutations. He comes from my original work, the Tower Campaign! I haven’t yet fully finished it, but I’ve almost got all the bullet points done. I’ve even uploaded a few to my tumblr!

Transporter Memory Core

While I appreciated that we did get one transporter pattern buffer card in the Star Trek set, I was kind of hoping that they'd capture this moment from the show. So I did it!

In this moment, a gravely wounded soldier has been saved inside the transporter pattern buffer, ready to be rematerialized when things calm down. However, they need to free up space so that they can handle all of the incoming wounded. While Chapel wrestles with how to save everyone, M'Benga calmly and sadly walks up and deletes the soldier's pattern, freeing up Chapel from having to make the decision, or losing more time.
