'Tis the season: Brimstone Volley
This is one for the creative types, while I continue to try and grade my last challenge, and while I wrangle up my drafting team for the resumption of the Daily Draft Debate.
Perhaps you have seen my incredibly disturbing Grixis carol, "It's Beginning to Look a lot like Grixis." Well, as promised, this year, it's your turn.
Your job is to post a MTG-themed carol remake of a popular holiday song. Post in the comments. Winners get featured in the next challenge article, plus some shiny T/O bling. Here, I'll get you started.
Norin the Wary -- Per "Frosty the Snowman"
Was a very cautious man /
With a magic torch and a warhammer /
God knows what in his right hand /
Is a red legend they say /
But he's not aggro /
He's a coward so /
He will flee from any fray /
He must be rather phobic /
Of spells and the combat phase /
For if planeswalkers attack or cast /
In the exile zone he stays! /
He's a very famous name /
If you judge creatures /
By what they die to /
He's the best creature in the game /
Knew the game was a dangerous spot /
So he ran away /
To fight another day /
But then again, probably not /
Out there in exile /
With his weird torch in his hand /
He met up with some suspend spells /
And some pathed dudes as he planned /
But then he stopped a moment /
And saw Juniper Order Ranger /
And with an Aura Shards and a Cream of the Crop /
He lost his feeling of danger! /
Great in combos, so he learned /
And he gave a shout /
As he exiled out /
"I'll be back again next turn."
Thumpety thump thump /
Thumpety thump thump /
Look at Norin go /
Thumpety thump thump /
Thumpety thump thump /
Into the exile zone! /
Love it. Can I enter more than once? I have one ready, and I'll post it now, but I can do better with some more time and thought; I just want to help get the ball rolling.
Without further ado,
Momir Vig
to the tune of 'Jingle Bells'
Tutoring for creatures
comboing with elves!
To Novijen we go,
Grafting all the way!
Making creatures ours!
What fun it is to laugh and cast
A well-timed Mystic Snake !
(chorus)<br />Momir Vig, Simic all the way
oh what fun it is to make
monstrosities all day.
Momir Vig, Simic all the way
oh what fun it is to put
teal creatures into play!

This looks fun. But I'm just going to have to wait for the musicals edition so I can release, "Five Hundred Twenty Five Thousand Six Hundred Deceiver Exarch s". It's a work in progress. You've just read the entirety of it so far...

To the tune of "Jingle Bells":
Absorbing damage,
Blowing up a dude,
Swinging for the kill,
Is Gideon Jura 's day
He's just so OP
When he's played right
That is why Blue-White players
Have him in all their decks!
[Chorus]
Gideon, Gideon,
Why are you so good?
When you say "Attack me"
The creatures come your way
Gideon, Gideon,
You need to be banned!
You simply
Dominate the board
When turn five comes its way!
