philias, same. I also recently decided to quit D&D. I haven't owned a television in probably 10 years, too. Basically all I do is work.

The Last Automaton

Legendary Artifact Creature - Assembly-Worker

When The Last Automaton enters, at the beginning of your upkeep and whenever you cast an artifact spell, put a charge counter on The Last Automaton.

Remove X charge counters, : Put X charge counters on target artifact.

Remove X charge counters, : Copy target artifact with mana value X or less. It enters tapped.

When The Last Automaton has no charge counters on it, sacrifice it.

3/3

I decided to go Bant rather than colorless because I forgot how many Bant cards use charge counters.

Make something that uses charge counters.

Metatokenosis

Sorcery

X target tokens you control each become a copy of target token.

So let's say you have some 0/1 plant tokens, a Map token, maybe some idk 1/1 Soldiers or something and your opponent just made a token made by Godsire.

Make an aura that says "Enchant Planeswalker"

Omg no wait shut up lmao

There's No Time To Explain!

Instant

Split Second

End the turn.

XD

God these are awesome, let's keep it going!

Inexplicably Safe

Instant

Prevent all damage dealt to a single target this turn.

Rayland's eyes clenched shut as the rattle of tommyguns tore through the complex for nearly twelve seconds. After the silence crept in and the smoke began to fade, he was surprised to see himself still standing, unharmed.

I'm getting some New Capenna vibes here so let's make a legendary action hero for this trope thing we've got going on

Lone Wolf*, my bad

Loan Wolf

Enchantment

As long as the only creature you control is your Commander, it gains double strike, vigilance and haste.

"I've been alone my entire life, ever since my family was brutally executed in front of me by the very system I trusted. And when I avenged them by taking down their killers, that same system turned against me. Now I do things alone, my way."

I hate this so much lol

More tropes haha

Plot Armor

Legendary Enchantment Artifact - Equipment Aura

Flash

Enchant creature

Equipped or enchanted creature has hexproof and indestructible.

Equip

Balancing the mana cost is a bit difficult but I think this is reasonable. 7 to flash it out as an aura and 4 to move it around? I can live with that

More tropes lol

So I rolled and got,

This fuckin' thing!

Which totally sounds like a Silverquill spell! :D

Enervation

Sorcery

Target creature gets -X/-X until end of turn and you gain half X life, rounded up.

Either repeat by going Here and turning the spell you got into a spell here,

Or make a card for something you can find in your kitchen

Noble's Squire

Creature Enchantment - Bard Background

Commander creatures you control have vigilance and haste.

2/2

I'm not sure how else it would work but this seems reasonable. It's kind of just a flagbearer though.

A flagbearer is an old term for a card, typically a creature, who makes an anthem effect for others.

I want you to go to a website where you can randomly select a Dungeons & Dragons spell and make it into a sorcery. Like an actually random choice.

I LOVE THAT!! Oh the wild and imaginative nonsense a Bleak deck could do, lmao

Two suggestions? Should probably target, lol

And maybe it would benefit from a "You may pay any color mana when paying for ability costs"?

Otherwise if you're in mono-blue, you can be locked out of using activated abilities you copied

Haru of The Silent Night

Legendary Creature - Vampire Noble

Vigilance, deathtouch

, : Exile target creature.

, : Create X blood tokens.

4/4

This was way harder than it looks. To make it work, "X" can't be counted in the haiku. I assume that will be okay since X is a placeholder value and not a literal word / syllable.

I literally spent the past 6 hours mulling over ways (passively) on how to complete this challenge. Hope it was worth it.

Make a legendary mono-blue creature, where their subtype isn't traditionally a blue color.

For example, a mono-blue dinosaur or a mono-blue giant.

Galla, Voracious Deathclaw

{Jund tri-color symbol} Legendary Creature - Dinosaur

Deathtouch, trample

You may cast Galla by sacrificing any number of creatures and / or lands. When you do, it enters with a +1/+1 counter for each creature you sacrificed and each opponent sacrifices nonland permanents with total mana value equal to or greater than the number of lands you sacrifice.

0/0

Not sure if this would work, by leaving its mana cost as {blank} rather than , ala Asmoranomardicadaistinaculdacar

Repeat if I messed up, or wild if you think it works

Vaeledrix, The Great Culling

Legendary Creature - Demon Cleric

Flying, trample

Pay 3 life: Put a +1/+1 counter on target creature.

Sacrifice a creature, : Target opponent sacrifices creatures with total minimum power equal to the power of your sacrificed creature's.

If a demon ever offers you insurmountable power beyond your wildest comprehension, ask what they gain from it first.

5/4

Vaeledrix feels like a demon from Dominaria, so make something adjacent to him for that plane.

Cash Out

Sorcery

You may begin the game with this card exiled and up for ante.

If Cash Out is in ante, at the beginning of each upkeep, create a tapped treasure token.

If you cast Cash Out, create five treasure tokens.

Since ante is strongly against the rules and the cards are hard to make, let's move on with just a wildcard

"Aura Farming"

Estrid, Masked Intentions

Legendary Creature - Human Wizard

The first aura spell you cast during your turn costs less if it targets Estrid.

Whenever you cast an aura spell, you may pay and copy it and choose a new target. The copy enters the battlefield as a token.

3/3

I would absolutely build that deck. And honestly she's probably a strong Precon level so I'd happily buy it, too.

Make another strong Precon-level commander you would absolutely buy the deck for :)

Soul Surge

Instant

As an additional cost to cast this spell, discard a creature card.

Target creature you control with no abilities gains all abilities of the discarded creature until end of turn, and haste. Sacrifice it at the beginning of the next end step.

A momentary surge of power is all it took to burn her very soul out of existence.

We have blue and black left.

• Create a spell that cares about vanilla creatures (Those with no abilities)

Build-a-Bitch

Creature - Assembly-Worker

When Build-a-Bitch enters, choose up to one plus X colors and up to two plus X keyword ability counters or +1/+1 counters. Build-a-Bitch becomes those colors, and gains those counters.

You don't get to pick and choose.

2/2

So basically 7 (4+3) mana of any combination gets you a WUBRG body that could have something like Trample, Hexproof, Indestructible, Deathtouch and two +1/+1 counters making it a 4/4

Or a WUBRG 7/7 with indestructible

Or a 6/6 with flying and hexproof

Alternatively you can pay only and get something like a White 4/4 or whatever you need at that time.

A 2/2 with Deathtouch and Reach against a flying commander.

Repeat

Repeat
