New card idea

Custom Cards forum

Sorry for the click bait but here is the story.

I had a dream last night that a new fate reforged card had been spoiled. It was a green card (not surprising because I almost always play green).

It was a 1/5 for 1 and a green(by the way can we start calling every 1/5 for 2 a Nyx-Fleece Ram). Its ability was "Green and tap: add green to each player's mana pool for each druid, elf, other subtype, other subtype.(I don't remember them) Then reduce the amount of mana in each player's mana pool by half. The mana added this way does not empty from any player's mana pool. Whenever a player attacks with one or more creatures move all remaining mana from each player's mana pool to that player. It's type was human druid.

This seems like a super weird super fun mechanic so I decided to post it on here. If anyone wants to make the card in photoshop the art was a mix of the from the vault:20 Fyndhorn Elves and Stoneforge Mystic. If anyone has balancing ideas voice them in the comments keep in mind this would be a standard card not only commander.

What a weird dream. Seems like a really powerful card to me.

I mean, this is an incredibly stupid topic, but the most egregious thing is the implication that Nyx-Fleece Ram is a 1/5.

You might have to cut a few lines out of that ability. Cards can't quite fit a novel on them. Also, this is not a very intuitive ability, and a one mana 1/5 alone doesn't quite fit with general rules of magic cards.

I'm with TurboFagoot. You lost me at "Nyx-fleece Ram is a 1/5".

I find it odd that it produces mana and then takes it away.

So not only is the title misleading, but the thread is in the wrong forum. Not a good start.

Fixed.
