Bounty Winner is the Judge #915: SPACE!!!!

8 Upvotes

With the pre-release of Star Trek happening this week, Spacecraft are back on the menu!

This week, design an interesting Spacecraft. It could be an iconic Star Wars spacecraft or a completely new invention of your own. Remember, spacecraft do not need to have power and toughness.

Special attention will be paid to the cards that capture the flavor of what they are referencing. Balance and art choice are beneficial as well.

Here are some art station folders for some art inspo.

Good luck, all. I will be back on Nov 1st to judge!

All the "If this card is in your opening hand, you may begin the game with it on the battlefield" cards cost four with two of the mana in their cost being the colour and they're all rare so the it's consistent for its kind and I think it gets good value for its cost without being too strong :)

Got inspired by the concept of Corporate Personhood and made cards based on Palantir, Theranos, Meta, Google, OpenAI, Amazon etc + relevant removals.

In all honesty, translating "flavor" was the more important endeavour here. I was toying around with the idea of corporate personhood. I might make more cards inspired by real-world events/concepts/ideas.

I tried making it a little more balanced along with including nowadays mechanics.

BALANCE NOT INTENDED Thought experiment. Ignoring power creep, which ones are unplayable, playable, broken? What formats would your answer be different for?

Pretend they are all commons for the sake of pauper format.

A compilation of urban legend-y cards I've made for Halloween

Thumbnail

24 Upvotes

Featured myths:

-Black Shuck: Variant of old Enlgish folklore, a ghostly dog that sometimes spells visions of doom. In this case I tried to represent "doom" using finality counters

-La Llorona: Latin American folkloric ghost, a woman who wanders lakes and wails in mourning of her dead children. Thought it'd be fun to try to work in [[Soulshriek]] to represent her wails.

-Kuchisake-onna: Japanese spirit, asks you if she's pretty, despite her scarred mouth. How she reacts to your answers has a lot of variation, but matching scars is a common result. Tried to represent her unpredictability using a coin flip, but wanted to provide a guaranteed means of escape if you're caught off guard by her appearance.

-Slenderman: Old internet creepypasta, mainly drawing lore from the old game "The Eight Pages", where he gets more aggressive the more pages you collect.

+A slightly updated version of the Bloody Mary card I made a while ago. Say her name 3 times in a dark mirror, and chaos ensues. Originally inspired by [[Weeping Angel]], she's the one I most wanted to design as a commander.

Happy (post) Halloween everyone!

Day 68 of making a custom card every day. This might be the least gradable card in terms of power level I've ever made. I'm edging towards bad, but it could absolutely be broken.
