CCDD 013117—Die Fighting

Cool Card Design of the Day
1/31/2017 - For some reason, when this title popped into my head, it wanted to be seen in three different colors. Which do you prefer?

Match Structure

Currently, match structure at a Magic tournament is this: Play best-2-out-of-3, unless you run out of time. Except 2HG and other multiplayer formats that go long, in which case you play 1 game, until time. Or if it's a feature match at the end of a big tournament, then you play to best-3-out-of-5.

The winner gets 3 points, and the loser 0. Or if it's a draw, 1 each.

Cool Card Design of the Day
1/25/2017 - In November, I was thinking about how great monstrosity is (because it's a kicker effect that you don't strand in hand waiting for full value). It also makes for a great solution to keeping one-drops relevant later in the game.

Goblin Game 2017

Hey Artisans. Just a heads up. In honor of Goblin Week 2017, tomorrow (1/26) morning I'll be doing my annual Goblin Game on twitter. A quick refresher of the rules*:
*This is a goblin game. All rules are strictly optional.


Once we start, I'll be posting goblin art every 20 minutes over the course of a few hours, along with design restrictions. Reply to the tweet with your design for a red goblin creature that fits within the restrictions. Keep your submission limited to 1 tweet.

That's it. Looking forward to seeing your designs!

Cool Card Design of the Day
1/25/2017 - Here's a vehicle with revolt that can give you two artifacts for improvisation. I was only aiming for the first two, but the latter doesn't hurt.
