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.

Make a card that goes infinite with a previously printed real card in a two card combo
February 15, 2019 9:35 p.m.
Firestorm44 says... #11
Combos with cards that can sac basic lands, specifically Dark Heart of the Wood and Zuran Orb .
Zendikar's Refusal
Instant
Until end of turn, whenever a basic land would be put into your graveyard, you may instead return it to the battlefield tapped.
The combo works by you having Zuran Orb out and playing this. Then, you can sac your basic lands an infinite number of times to gain infinite life and infinite landfall triggers.
Create another card that goes infinite with a different previously printed real card.
February 15, 2019 11:05 p.m.
Blood Rite of Dusk
Enchantment
Sacifice a Vampire: Add or
, Sacrifice a Vampire: Return target Vampire to the battlefield from your graveyard. Exile that creature at the beginning of your end step.
Combos with Elenda, the Dusk Rose
February 16, 2019 12:19 a.m.
There's no real advantage from this infinite combo, much like the Felidar Sovereign + Aminatou, the Fateshifter combo, but with a third card, you can easily generate a lot of value. If there's an anthem, or another Vampire at the beginning, you can generate infinite mana or infinite Vampire tokens. If you have a Mortician Beetle , if can get infinitely large, Soul Warden would gain infinite life Desecrated Tomb would grant infinite Bats.
February 16, 2019 12:26 a.m.
Honestly, It's difficult to make a card that goes infinite with one card without being extremely broken.
Try an make one.

Make another Star-Wars themed card
February 16, 2019 7:06 p.m.
I’m not sure whether to go for an unglued card in this forum, so here’s two star-wars ones.
Lightsaber Artifact
: Equip to yourself.
During your turn, you gain power equal to your devotion to white, blue or green and may attack another player or planeswalker.
When you attack an opponent, take damage equal to their devotion to red and black. If you would deal more damage than you would take, gain the high ground. (You can’t be attacked except by creatures with flying)
It’s over Anikan!
Or, alternatively...
Order 66.6
For each creature your opponents control deals damage equal to its power to its controller. Each opponent may sacrifice any number of creatures in response to negate this effect for the sacrificed creatures.
Until end of turn, you may cast a spell with CMC equal to the number of creatures sacrificed this way without paying its CMC.
First they betrayed their masters, then their masters betrayed them. Now I stand ready to rule the galaxy
Challenge: Create another equipment you can equip to yourself (and explain how damage / combat works)
