Card of the Day - Goblin Vanguard

Here's another take on Boost.  This one is kind of a reverse Exalted, where more creatures equals more bonuses.  Someone gave me this idea, but I don't remember who it was.  If it's you, let me know in the comments!

Card of the Day - Lifebond

I've been playing Commander on Magic Online a lot recently.  This is a card I wish existed.  I need it for ComeAtMeBro.dec

Card of the Day - Weapon X

Since I've been on this Avengers kick, I thought I'd make some X-men too. Here's Wolverine being awesome.

Card of the Day - Marsh Mist

A different take on the Shade mechanic.  In this form, you don't need to spend a bunch of mana to give him a huge boost.

Card of the Day - Dominant Species

I wanted to make a four color card.  If you break this down into its component parts, vigilance is GW with a smidge of U, deathtouch is BG, and the third ability is GU.

Card of the Day - Spider-Man

I know he's not really an Avenger, but I had created an ability that would suit him rather well, so I went with it.  Also: He's Spider-Man, and therefore awesome.

Card of the Day - Give Thanks

In the US, we celebrate Thanksgiving on the fourth Thursday of November.  It is my favorite holiday for two reasons: 1) everyone is supposed to be nice to each other for the whole day, and 2) I get to eat turkey.  A lot of turkey.  Cause that's what the pilgrims ate.  Booyah.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! 

Bonus! Card of the Day - Mjolnir

Mjolnir is Thor's hammer, in case you didn't know.

Card of the Day - The Mighty Thor

I don't really like starting cards' names with the word "The", but I think it's ok in this instance.

Edit: He really should have flying.

Card of the Day - Captain America

Everyone's favorite super-soldier.  Here's another version.  Note the mana cost:

Card of the Day - Iron Man

Just wanted to make the rest of the Avengers.  Iron Man made me make a new keyword.

Edit: Flying. Duh.

Card of the Day - Keeper of Armaments

This was originally red, but I thought it would fit nicely as a hybrid Boros card.

Card of the Day - Fearsome Knight

Here's a quick idea for a Boros mechanic.  It can be called something else.  Morale? Valor? I dunno.

Card of the Day - Fus Ro Dah

To celebrate the one year anniversary of Skyrim, here's a li'l nugget of fun.

Card of the Day - Eyebiter

This is the best art I've ever seen.  I had to make a card for it because of how awesome it is.

Card of the Day - Veil of Secrecy


This is a one-shot, simplified version of Illusionary Mask.  It seems like a good fit for an Illusion spell.

Card of the Day - Control Undead

Another avenue we could go with is using different schools of magic as spell subtypes.  I've only made Necromancy (black) and Illusion (blue) spells so far, but this could easily be expanded into other colors.  Evocation for red is a bit obvious.  I like that each school focuses on one color, but could have maybe one card of a different color for fun.  If anyone has ideas for White and Green, post here please.

Card of the Day - Village Herbalist

Here's a guy who supports Team Up without actually having the ability.  She's perfectly fine to fight by herself, but she works much better on a team.

Card of the Day - Unassuming Tavern

The start of any great adventure is an Unassuming Tavern in a small village.  Is there a better place to find traveling companions?

Card or the Day - Razor Violinist



Evey team needs a good Bard to boost its stats. This wording of Team Up is the one I'm going to use until we can figure out a better wording.

Card of the Day - Ancient Beholder

The dungeon crawling atmosphere really wants to have nasty baddies.  This guy is a direct port from D&D.  Beholders are one of the most iconic creatures of that game, and deserve a spot in any D&D game.

Card of the Day - Corrupt Vicar

For anyone who doesn't know, Goblin Artisans is hosting a set design event.  This is the first of many cards designed to be a part of the set idea I'm backing: Mondombre.  Gold counters are something I used for my Orzhov design, but they feel at place in a set based on Dungeons & Dragons.

Card of the Day - Finli o' Tego

Finli o' Tego is a character from Stephen King's The Dark Tower.  He's a Weasel Taheen, which basically means he's a guy with a weasel head.  Here's some other Dark Tower stuff I've done.

Card of the Day - Growing Flame


This is another Basic card.  This card could be quite powerful if you have 12 in your deck.  It just keeps getting bigger!  For more explanation of the Basic card type, check this out.

Card of the Day - Bant Signet

Here's one of those "Why didn't they make this?" cards.  I got the idea when I saw the new guild charms.

Card of the Day - Chandra's Curse

This card went through a lot of changes before it made it to this form. When I first created this card a few years ago, it was an enchant permanent that did 1 damage to the permanent's controller each turn.  It was a common that cost R. I called it Heat Curse and filed it away.

As I was looking through my files for a card to post, I found it again. I saw it and immediately thought of a similar card in Innistrad. They even made it a Curse!  I wanted to make it more special, so I added a sense of urgency to it.  A very red sense of urgency.  This is the perfect card to put on an annoying opposing creature.  It's fun to watch your opponent squirm trying to get rid of his own creature.

Card of the Day - Thrill of Battle


I wanted to make an upgraded version of my very first favorite card, Orcish Oriflamme. (There have been more than a few favorites in the years since.)


Edit:  Charge counters! Duh!
