There were a couple of cards that I submitted to the custom cards subreddit that were later printed almost exactly like I posted them. I mostly remember Foundation Breaker (mine was 2GG cost and 3/2) and Damn (mine was 1BB // 3WW for the costs)

Something that has been on my mind for quite some time, and that I would consider learning to mod just to make it happen would be discretizing the potion and enchantment system. By that I mean that instead of having the ability of making potions that restore 50 health, 51, 52, etc., depending on how high your alchemy, you would only have discrete values, eg. 25, 50, 75, 100, 125…, or whatever you choose, and you jump from one to the next instead of going through all the intermediate integer values.

That would avoid a lot of inventory clutter that you get from making potions and leveling alchemy in the process. I remember I’ve seen a mod that does this once, but it didn’t seem very active and updated.

I use mtgcardbuilder. It’s a bit complicated to use but the cards look great.

I designed this card a long time ago, before the printing of Murktide Regent, and then I thought 3 mana was a decent minimum to have a reanimation effect plus a 4/4 body. Honestly, to mimic Murktide I would just make a copy of it in black that cares about creature cards being exiled from the graveyard rather than instants and sorceries.

Assuming this is intended to be an artifact creature, I think it would probably be too broken for modern, legacy and pauper (and any format with good artifact support really) as is. If it were printed in standard I’d expect it to cost 2U, comparing it to [[Cloudkin Seer]], but if you really want to push it, 1U might be a safer, but still incredibly powerful choice.

That’s a cool and clean design. I agree with Mike that this could cost less mana, being a conditional cantrip and needed heavy deckbuilding requirements to do anything more than that. 1 or 2 mana seem reasonable as is. Maybe it could be at 2 or 3 mana if it just drew the card with no conditions asked.

I mostly dislike it for requiring outside game pieces to function, making it overly complicated, all for trying to fit the lore into the mechanics too hard. Similar to the problem I have with dungeons and initiative.
