Ok, heres how this works. You create a card to the specifications of the person above you, then list your own card idea for the next person. I'll start.
Variety XX
Sorcery
If X is 2 or lower, draw X cards. If X is 3, put X +1/+1 counters on X target creatures. If X is 4, return X target creatures from your graveyard to the battlefield. If X is 5 or more, Variety deals x damage to target creature or player. If X is 10 or more, you win the game.
Create a life gaining multicolored Turtle with power twice it's toughness or vice versa.

((ninja'd but I'll do this one))
Vaults of Orzhova
Artifact
, : Create a colorless Treasure artifact token with ", Sacrifice this artifact: Add one mana of any color."
When Vaults of Orzhova leaves the battlefield, each opponent creates a colorless Treasure artifact token with ", Sacrifice this artifact: Add one mana of any color."
I was originally going to do a Land, but wasn't sure if it'd be balanced at all considering the rarity of land destruction. Also, I figured this'd work better with the Safe Cracker. =)
How about another place or thing to rob?

Quoth the raven 'Nevermore' -Edgar Allen Poe
Create a new card type
February 13, 2019 11:03 p.m.
Spread the Wealth
Alliance
(Start the game with this card face down in the command zone. Turn it face up after all players have drawn their starting hand.)
Lands you and your teammates control have ", : Target player adds one mana of any color."
My idea here is that in a team-based format like Two-Headed Giant or Emperor, each player can start with an Alliance. Before the game starts, your team picks an Alliance and uses that for the match.
If you think this idea could work, create another Alliance. If you think it needs some adjustment, create a card that shows that adjustment. Otherwise, wild card.
February 13, 2019 11:28 p.m.
Oath of Kaya
Legendary Enchantment

As Faction Alliance is turned face up, you and your teammates choose 2 colors.
Spells you and your teammates cast can be cast as though one color symbol of one of the colors chosen with Faction Alliance was a phyrexian mana of that color. (For example, if the chosen colors are red and green and you cast a spell with a mana cost of , that spell could be cast as if that spell's mana cost was or .)
Another Alliance!
