This is one of the funniest threads ever!

I need to make a card for myself, but if someone else wants to take a stab at it, go ahead. Use any suitable dragon pic, and make me Legendary Creature - Dragonlord. I'd need to have the Warwolf flag somewhere in there as well.

Funny stuff.
Is there a good website which explains the rules these cards are based on?

Take a look at one of the earlier pages of the thread, page 4 or 5 I think. There's a detailed explanation there.

Edi

It's amazing how well you people translate into MtG cards.

ROARRR!!!

Here, my previous explanation: Linka.

Website with rules: Linka.

Downloads/Editor: Linka.

Rough rule of thumb for homemade cards: Linka.

Note: multicolour creatures are generally cheaper because
a) a larger number of "protection from <colour>" abilities will hinder them, and
b) a more varied range of lands is neccesary to summon them.

Note: several cards here make the error of saying "this creature cannot be attacked", but creatures are never "attacked" per se, they are "targeted" by spells and abilities, they can suffer from global effects and they can block or be blocked in combat.

Heh. Saw this thread and remembered I still had an old copy of van Laarhoven's MTG Editor lying around. I always liked the way it did fonts for the cards.

Thanks.

So pretty! And that quote! *laughs and shakes head* Thank you, RI.

Try this for Zaia, use her baby pictures.

card:

Baby Zaia
Legendary baby


Cuteness: Aslong as Zaia is not angry, Zaia cannot be attacked

[insert energy cost here]ZAIA: When Baby Zaia(or Zaia) turn into ZAIA,+2/2, make ZAIA angry for 4 turns.


4/4

Sounds allright? Would be an intresting combo with Z and babyZ.

For reference, baby pictures of Z

Zaia the first
Zaia the second

Zaia the third

I tried to do it, but the cuteness factor overwhelmed by MtG editor and it exploded. My desktop is a mess. Little Bat-bits everywhere...

And I am this close to having Edi's card done.

I wonder if someone can MtG me...

Preliminary version:


Do you have a better picture of the Acclamatorprise lying about? Others, I'll just use your avatar.

Do I have to get down on my hands and knees and beg for someone to make a card of me?

As others have asked, what do you want on it? Pic, quote, abilities, color, vague ideas? Anything?

Why not just say "Affinity for Pro-Trek debators" since the cost reduction rule is essentially already in existance?

Yes. Yes you do. And kiss our feet while you're at it.

There is a difference between that mechanic and his ability, if a small one. 2 Pro-Trek Debators would be required to fufill the ability if implimented the other way. However, the difference is of little consequence; I suppose I could change it.

Edited.

Eh, here we go:



Pretty basic until you relate what your claims to fame around here are. Otherwise it is a mite hard to judge what abilities to put on it.

* Also a better pic of your avvie might make the card look nicer.
* In debates, how agressive/resilient are you?
* What are the most important points that you like to debate?

I'm aware of that. But it seems a pretty trivial difference, and since the "affinity" mechanic already exists, why not just use that?

Not that it is a big deal or anything - just making suggestions and such.

Um, well, uh, you know what? Just put, some, uh, you know what screw it, I havent done anything worth mentioning. Oh, I am the only one on the board to write a Harry Potter fanfiction with guns and bombs and stuff.

OK, I'll see what I can do about it.

Update: Here, how's this?



This ability is similar to the regular "ping" ability which is "tap to deal 1 damage to target creature or player", except here you tap to produce a sacrificial token that does the job. Cost is similar to creatures with the "ping" ability and the same P/T scores...

EDIT: as an aside, a higher resolution picture of your avvie would be very helpful - or perhaps an alternative image altogether.

YET ANOTHER EDIT: Actually, yours may be more powerful since you can build up a set of such explosive fanfics and detonate several simultaneously, potentially taking out more powerful creatures (one has to deal damage equal to a creature's Toughness in the same round to destroy it). Also, "protection from red" would be useless since the tokens that deal the damage are colourless...

If I were to make a serious 'me' card, does anyone have any suggestions for abilities? I just seem to be here.
