The one problem i see, is that becoming a god is definitely a rare / mythic only thing. IT could work as an ability word similar to the hideaway cycle tho! Ex:<br /><br />Basarios the Blade 3BB<br />Legendary Creature - Human Assassin<br />Whenever Basarios attacks, you may destroy target creature. If three or more creatures died this turn, you may put a divinity counter on Basarios.<br />Ascend - If Basarios has a divinity counter on it, it is an enchantment and has "Whenever an assassin you control attacks, you may destroy target creature" (Its no longer a creature)<br />1/1<br /><br />Now obviously this design is flawed as its powerful and if you killed 3 creatures in a turn, chances are the fact that he ascended probably no longer matters, but he was the first named character from the set that came to mind that was featured in the flavor but has no card yet.

Seal of Doom and Killi...Here's what I sat on. <br /><br />Seal of Doom and Killing Glare would be interesting reprints. <br /><br />Reinforce is a possible returning mechanic that works both mechanically and thematically.<br /><br />Here are two ability words that care about +1/+1 counters. You could stick with that, or be more modular and care about power instead:<br />Great Vigor {G}<br />Instant (cmn)<br />Target creature gains trample until EOT.<br /><i>Greatness</i> — That creature gets +X/+X until EOT where X is the number of +1/+1 counters on it.<br />+<br />Epic Cleave {X}{R}<br />Sorcery (unc)<br />Shoulders of Giants <i>(~ costs {1} less to cast for each +1/+1 counter among creatures you control.)</i><br />~ deals X damage to target creature.<br /><br />The ability to cast a creature turn after turn could help you stall or race a big monster on the other side. I had some other reason Army would be relevant, but I can't see it now.<br />Flock of Crows {2}{U}<br />Creature—Bird (cmn)<br />Flying<br />Army <i>(When ~ ETB, you may search your library for a card with the same name. If you do, shuffle your library and put that card on top.)</i><br />2/1<br /><br />Finally, I also explored some more ways devotion could be leveraged:<br />Will to the Grave {B}<br />Sorcery (cmn)<br />Destroy target creature with CMC less than or equal to your devotion to black.<br />+<br />Will into Being {1}{G}<br />Sorcery (rare)<br />Search your library for a creature card with CMC less than or equal to your devotion to green and put it OTB. It's an enchantment in addition to its other types. Shuffle your library.Jay Treathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09428861685923241850noreply@blogger.com
