Sorry all, nothing new tomorrow, this week was a total wash. So this will be repeated on the 13th!

Pilots typal...?

Training Institute
Land
: Add
: Add one of any color. Use this mana only to cast Pilot or Vehicle spells.
, : Create a 1/1 Pilot creature token with “This token saddles Mounts and crews Vehicles as though its power were 2 greater.”


Sometimes, you just need a utility land. Create a Class enchantment that flips over once you've leveled it up enough with the intent that the flipside be the challenge after yours.

I meant to step back and look at the "Creatures Attacking Your Opponents" challenge, not the Ozjohn challenge.

Ozjohn Castle
Land
Ozjohn Castle enters tapped.
: Add
: Exile the top card of your library. You play it this turn. If it's a creature, it gains Haste until the end of the turn.
"SURPRIZE! No one expects me here!"


I was going to submit this for the previous challenge, but got ninja'd, so I think I'll circle back around to it for my own challenge.

Goblin Charge-Commander
Creature - Goblin Warrior
Creatures attacking your opponents get +1/+0 until the end of the turn.
"I LOVE the smell of confusion in the morning! And the Afternoon! And the evening! And at night!"
1/1


You know what? Let's make a horizontal cycle of these. Aim for something Limited viable, or Uncommon in complexity.

Recruitment Contract
Sorcery
Create X 1/1 White Human Soldier Tokens. Each other player may pay up to X to create that many 1/1 Red Goblin Tokens. For each token created, gain 1 life.


Create a Pseudo-Levelling creature, as that's what I talked about in this week's Pattern Recognition! Go read it!

Pattern Recognition #385 - The History of Benalia

One of Magic's oldest and most underdeveloped regions, Benalia has a long and storied history to it - if you're willing to dig into the game for it. Lucy for you, I am!

Pattern Recognition #384 - Cube

A cube is a shape with six faces, each of the same size and shape all touching four other faces at a perpendicular angle. Often referred to as a 'd6'. Or it could be a pile of cards designed to be drafted!
