CCDD 091014—Meadhome Guardian

Cool Card Design of the Day
9/10/2014 - Was thinking how Goblins are the most common tribe to get tribal mechanics in any given set, and wanted to explore a way to turn that on its head. Meadhome Guardian could be {2}{W} and even common, depending on the set.

    "Goblin creatures your opponents control..."?

      Considered that. Might be right. Goblins are used to being made to attack, and I'm okay have a bit of downside here considering how well it works in theme. But yeah, maybe the other way.

    I'm not in love with the second line of text.

    I would rather something like "Goblins that attack in this way don't untap during their controllers next untap step" to communicate that the goblins are drunk.

      Hmm. I was just going for "I can block and kill two 1/1s each turn" but I love the idea of tying the name in and getting the gobbos drunk.

      Okay. So I had no problem with the second ability until Tommy put up this suggestion. Now I demand a change. DEMAND I TELL YOU.

    On the other hand, I think a WW 2/3 that can block an additional creature would make a great uncommon.
