Card of the Day - Terrus Fen, the Anointed

Welcome to Abzan week. This week I will be featuring cards from my favorite wedge. Today's card is a two mana legendary creature.
The nice thing about creatures with off-color activation costs is that you can cast them and use them as a regular creature even if you don't have the mana to use the off-color ability.  Sure, the card gets better if you have it, but it's not necessary.

Card of the Day - Gix, Yawgmoth Praetor

If you're not familiar with Gix, he was one of the original Phyrexian baddies. You can learn a bit more about him here.

Card of the Day - Marek's Keystone

This is the relic that King Micah is sending with Otto to the Gargut Glacier.  I hope nothing bad happens...

Card of the Day - Vadel, Servant of Ulamog

The last of our ragtag group was Vadel, a warlock who worshiped a god that none of our characters had ever heard of.

Card of the Day - Selphi, Bahamut's Heir

Selphi hasn't died yet, but he keeps saying that he's actually a dragon, and we're all pretty sure he'll become an awesome dragon if he does die.

 This is my character in our DnD campaign. He died this week fighting a green dragon. Here's his badass sword too.

Card of the Day - Shaena Greenbottle

This is the first in a series of cards based on the D&D campaign my wife DMs. 

This is our bard, Shaena.  She's a little person.

Card of the Day - Ka-Mohari, WIsh Lord


This guy started in my head as a mono-blue 5/6 for 5UU that drew you two cards each turn. Strong, but kind of boring. I added the rider "Instant spells you cast cost 2 less" so you have some way of casting all the new cards you get. I changed him to Black/Blue and added the life loss to balance out the cost reduction, as well as letting commander players play a Juzam Djinn if they felt so inclined.

After looking through Gatherer and seeing some recent Djinni from Khans of Tarkir, namely the Jeskai clan, I decided to change the word "Instant" to "Noncreature". The cost reduction being for "noncreatures" is very Jeskai. Those monks sure do love their prowess.

I didn't set out to make a 4 color commander, but I think he turned out pretty well, nonetheless. Let me know what you think either here or in the /r/custommagic subreddit.

Guest Card of the Day - Saber Battle

This is Hollee.

I saw the new Star Wars tonight.

I don't know how to design cards.

Adam doesn't know I'm posting this.

All these facts are probably already quite clear from the above image.

Card of the Day - Xaros, the Everflame

This is my submission for the Re-Making Magic podcast challenge; a Legendary Phoenix.  I really value simple designs that are elegant and strong.  I think this fits the bill.

Card of the Day - Maradath, Queen of the Skies

I've recently gone down the rabbit hole of Tiny Leaders.  This is a commander that would fit well in either a soldier deck or a bird deck, or work best of all in a Bird Soldier deck. 

There are exactly 9 Bird Soldiers available in this format, and at least six of them would be awesome in a deck with Maradath as the commander.
