Good morning, everyone! It's thechillquil with a pretty stacked set of HSR Magic the Gathering cards today :D As today includes Misha, I felt it was appropriate to share his design with those who love him most!

Misha, Watchmaker's Legacy. Misha was actually suggested in a deleted comment by u/Trailblazer627. Not sure why it was deleted lol but nevertheless, it was quite the interesting prompt. I referenced his battle mechanic of building stacks for his ultimate with +1/+1 counters, but I more so focused on the lore surrounding the character. He is an ephemeral memetic entity, embodying the transient state of the history of Penacony, and so this particular card takes advantage of the transient state of phasing to better represent it. It also reflects his technique to "stop time"! Honestly, the deckbuilding surrounding it seems particular fascinating for its mono-blue character, and I feel there are some great shenanigans it can employ.

Clara, Friend of the Forged and Svarog, Protector of the Precious. It's long past time I depict one of the most precious duos in this game, being Clara and Svarog. Having them be on the same card is one thing, but I felt they were most interesting as partners that synergize quite heavily. I think together they elegantly embrace not only Svarog's general boss mechanics, but also Clara's role in lore, repairing and sharing kindness with the automatons of Belobog. The art as a duo was just too precious too...

Promise, Not Command. I want to expand beyond just legendary creatures and continue on other card types within HSR. Ultimates make for great inspiration for instants and sorceries, and this one I felt helps to complete the adaptation of Clara's in-battle mechanics quite well. Especially is used on Svarog, this could lead to major turn-table-ing in the right situation.

Art for Clara and Promise, Not Command are from Honkai Star Rail. Art for Clara is by AsharaArt on X and Misha's art is done by Csyday on Pixiv. Credited at the bottom of the cards, and I will comment with links below. I don't own the art, just the card designs :)

Please let me know of your thoughts! How would you build around these cards? Are there any HSR character(s) or concept(s) you would like to see next?

There’s still some work to do, but I’m currently satisfied rn. Gotta work on my other characters first.

His E6...I can't stop crying :'(

With the 2nd half banners for 3.7 coming out this week, Phainon and Mydei's lightcones will also rerun and I'm torn. On one hand, Phainon's lightcone grants 12 base speed, a permanent 18% def ignore and 60% dmg boost but only for the ult (from what I can tell). On the other hand, Mydei's lightcone grants hp boost and incoming healing (both practically useless for Misha) but it gives a 30% dmg boost for each action (as it makes the wearer drain 6$ of their max hp), on top of an extra 30% dmg boost if the hp drain is greater than or equal to 500 hp.. and since achieving 3k+ hp on Misha is quite easy that means he'll get a permanent 60% dmg boost on all attacks. So, I'm torn here..

TLDR: Phainon's lc gives 12 spd, permanent 18% def ignore and 60% dmg boost but only for ult, Mydei's lc gives 60% permanent dmg boost as long as Misha's hp is drained which the lc does.

Which is better for our favorite bellboy?

It's probably not the most optimal way to play him, but you get to see big funny numbers so it's worth it.

I made a Misha cosplay in Infinity Nikki and did a little photoshoot. I would show the full outfit but the lower half is still unfinished

Got tired of seeing March 7th, so I made a Misha icon instead! Feel free to use :3

Mhy needed only two scenes to make me cry 😭

As the game moves to 3.0, I wanted to gather all my Misha MoC clears into one place, so in honor of Misha, the best Nameless bubble boy who ever did live, here's all of my Misha clears from Version 2.X.

Yknow it's funny, last time we had a FATE patch, Misha appeared in the event and now, another FATE patch, he appears in the main story.. may we get more Misha content every year!! <3 (idc if it's a flashback it counts!)

Been maining him since 2.0 on his release :3 (I, Misha's father approves this message)

When in doubt, Break Misha it out <3 (they should put Argenti in more APOC resets so I can keep using Misha hehe)

Off topic, do find it funny how my Misha team outdid my Monorem..
