Goblin Kaboomist

Creature — Goblin Warrior

At the beginning of your upkeep, create a colourless artifact token named Land Mine with ", Sacrifice this artifact: This artifact deals 2 damage to target attacking creature without flying." Then flip a coin. If you lose the flip, Goblin Kaboomist deals 2 damage to itself.

Nice! Been meaning to do something like this, you've done it way better than I could've. Only thing I reckon is that the treasures from Tavern Scoundrel probably can't be relied upon enough for as many Feedback Bolts, Goblin Engineers, and Shrapnel Blasts that you have.

Ichor Wellspring might serve you well, as well as a set of Treasure Vaults. Goblin Kaboomist could be stunning across the board, would love to see if it has a place. A couple of Mystic Sanctuarys would also go miles, I think.

Just doing a quick look at the MTG Wiki:

The mechanic Overload arose out of a mechanic designed by Ken Nagle in the first round of the Great Designer Search 1.

Ethan Fleischer's Evolve Mechanic from the Great Designer Search 2 found its way into the game.

Shawn Main created a mechanic in the Great Designer Search 2 that would be renamed and placed in the game as Battalion )

Looting becoming part of Red's Color Identity has its birth in the Great Designer Search 2.

You Make the Creature contest resulted in the creation of Spiritmonger .

You Make the Card contests resulted in the creation of: Forgotten Ancient , Crucible of Worlds , Vanish into Memory , and Waste Not .

The Winners of the Magic Invitational were allowed to design a card that would feature their likeness. From that, we got:

  1. Olle RÃ¥de's Sylvan Safekeeper ;
  2. Darwin Kastle's Avalanche Riders ;
  3. Mike Long's Rootwater Thief ;
  4. Chris Pikula's Meddling Mage ;
  5. Jon Finkel's Shadowmage Infiltrator ;
  6. Kai Budde's Voidmage Prodigy ;
  7. Jens Thoren's Solemn Simulacrum ;
  8. Bob Maher's Dark Confidant ;
  9. Terry Soh's Rakdos Augermage ;
  10. Antoine Ruel's Ranger of Eos ; and
  11. Tiago Chan's Snapcaster Mage .

The 2005 Magic Invitational had a vote for a fan-submitted card. Tsuyoshi Fujita's winning entry would eventually become Gemstone Caverns .

Magic 2015 had a number of cards created by famous Magic fans. These cards are:

  1. George Fan's (Plants vs. Zombies) Genesis Hydra ;
  2. Penny Arcade's (of the Penny Arcade webcomic and creator of PAX) Avarice Amulet ;
  3. Markus Persson's (creator of Minecraft) Aggressive Mining ;
  4. Richard Garriot's (creator of Ultimata) Shield of the Avatar ;
  5. David Sirlin's (designer on Street Fighter II) Master of Predicaments ;
  6. Rob Pardo's (lead designer for WoW) Xathrid Slyblade ;
  7. Isaiah Cartwright's (lead designer for Guild Wars 2) Warden of the Beyond ;
  8. Justin Gary's (winner 2003's National Team Championship in Worlds) Spirit Bonds ;
  9. Stone Librande's (lead designer Diablo III) Goblin Kaboomist ;
  10. Brian Fargo's (Founder of Interplay Entertainment, which made the original Fallout games) Yisan, the Wanderer Bard ;
  11. Mike Neumann's (creative director for Borderlands) Chasm Skulker ;
  12. James Ernest's (creator of Cheapass Games) Hot Soup ;
  13. Edmund McMillen's (indie game designer) Cruel Sadist ; and
  14. Brad Muir's (game designer of Double Fine, which made Psychonauts) Ob Nixilis, Unshackled .

I think that should answer your question. There also have been a number of players who were hired directly as a result of their play in tournaments or performances in things like the Great Designer Search, so, in a sense, could be considered fans turned card creators. However, once they become part of the design team, they are no longer merely fan creators, so I am not sure they would be responsive to your question.

Royal Servitude

Enchantment - Aura

Enchant creature or planeswalker. Activated abilities of enchanted permanent cost more to activate, unless it is a mana ability.

You control enchanted permanent. At the beginning of your upkeep, if you are the monarch, create a tapped Treasure token.


So Goblin Kaboomist exists, and therefore land mines exist, canonically, in the MtG world. Make another card that creates and interacts with land mines.

When I made the card, my brain saw "evasion" and thought "Protection". The activated ability is the main part of the card. That's my bad, sorry.


Angel's Blessing

Instant

Choose 2:

  • Gaing 5 life.

  • Scry 4.

  • Up to two permanents you control gain protection from a colour of your choice until end of turn.

  • Draw 3 cards. You may only choose this if you have gained life this turn.


Goblin Kaboomist makes land mines, which means Anti-personal explosives are now a part of MtG cannon. Make another card that makes Land Mine tokens, bonus points if it is a vehicle.

My spoilers in the comment above arnt working for me so im trying something different. "If you want to sift through some cards you can look at each section, but I would recommend just looking at the first grouping to start with, as I went a bit too far with the other lists. Those lists are fine to just look at ideas or "good cards" but there are far too many to call them suggestions.

If you want to sift through some cards you can look at each section, but I would recommend just looking at "The short list" to start with, as I went a bit too far with the other lists. Those lists are fine to just look at ideas or "good cards" but there are far too many to call them suggestions.
