Why is the wording bad? Is it that with "would", you always use "if" instead of "whenever"?
I want it to deal all the damage any of your spells or creatures would deal. This way, the damage can get around protection, or you could put infect on it and have all damage be infect damage, or other shenanigans.

Arguably even better, especially as it doesn't tap to so so.

Go look at some spells, and then remember that as an activated ability they should be more expensive.

What do you guys think of brown as a sixth color? It would be the color of the laws of physics and other deterministic laws with the theme of space. The colors game play would be using delayed effects, making suspend a brown mechanic for example, in order to get larger and stronger effects. It uses time as a theme.

Could you explain what you think is wrong it? Does a card like this one look better?
>>
>>46395849

Imagine printing hundreds of brown commons. How is that going to work out?
When a color's identity is nothing more than "complexity" it's shit. It's going to take actual effects, rather than how it goes about doing them, from other colors.
"Space" isn't a theme that can be or even wants to be in every mtg setting.
It's garbage.
>>
>>46395742
Such abasic , practical color in terms of flavor would align more closely with colorless.

That aside, if they were to make a sixth color it should be Purple, but even in that case there isn't really enough space for a new color without creating entirely new design space.
>>
>>46395957
>without creating entirely new design space

Or by narrowing down some colors and stealing from them.
>>
>>46395742
Well they would probably stick to the color spectrum.

Like the color you get if you blend green and red Or blue and red.
>>
>>46396012
But then those two colors don't feel like themselves, and this new color just feels like a multicolor mix.

Unless you steal really narrow and obscure effects, it won't feel distinct.
>>
>>46396076
They've already phased effects from one color to another, though.
I'm not saying it's a good idea. I hate sixth color and think snow mana and colorless mana requirements are the closest thing mtg should get to a sixth color.
I'm also convinced anyone who wants a sixth color is just too obsessed with novelty and isn't thinking about the actual health or good parts of the game.

White has been getting assassinate effects since Portal.

Make the discard random. It makes it more red (other than Faithless Looting, every instance of red draw-then-discard has the discard be random) and less like Ideas Unbound.

Here's a batch of commons from the set I'm working on. Going for a more futuristic block in general, and Blue/Black/Red is going to be focused largely on spells as sort of psychic abilities.

I haven't gotten around to selecting fitting creature types for most of these, as I'm unsure whether adding a new type for Psions would be wise.

Outside of that, the main thing I'm worried about is the costing on Cipher abilities.
>>
>>46422875

>Ego Imposition
A lot worse than hidden strings for only being one mana cheaper. Barely worth a card.

>Barrier Kinetic
this can be a 1/3

>Spacial Distortion
>2 damage to that permanent's owner
While owner is correct here, I'd prefer if it did damage to that card's controller. Makes it feel better as a Brand type of card when you use it like that, and makes it play smoother by a little bit.

>Novice Kinetic
I could be wrong here but this feels more like an uncommon to me.

>Levitation Specialist
This has no real reason to be black. I dislike it.

>Absorbing Mentalist
>~ deals 1 damage to target creature.
This is uncommon.

>Thought Twister
The repeated scry seems too cheap to me. I'd make it uncommon or make the scry a bit more expensive.

More just a nitpick, but I'd rather it be a symmetrical base because of the +1/+1 counters on it.

>Pyretic Wanderer
I dunno, this is funky. I don't like the burn being attached to a 1/1 for 1. Maybe make it a squire?

>Furious Shriek
On the flip side, I'm trying to think of some way to make this card more powerful. It seems like too much antisynergy with how cipher triggers.

This should be an uncommon. I like it a lot though. There, it could maybe be 1R too.

I'm not sure how to fix Ego Imposition

Barrier Kinetic was meant to be a mirror of Blade Kinetic, as how Levitation Specialist was meant to line up with Fear Inducer.

Other than that, I'm not sure if I agree with you on some of these needing to be uncommon.

That said, I do appreciate the advice. I'll try and tweak some of those you mentioned.

>>46423245
I see what you mean. While I do feel like it would work in black, I can see how that much shuffling would get annoying.

I'll probably just throw it out and add in something else.

Shuffling cards into library has historically been green or blue.
You can also just put the card on the bottom of the library, which is functionally similar.

My guess would be 'does not untap during next untap step' which would synergize well with the cipher mechanic.
>>
>>46425876
Fair enough. I'll replace that with something better then.

As for your suggestion for Ego Imposition, that seems rather similar to Hands of Binding, which was 1 mana more. That does fit rather well though, so I might just change it to be an effective reprint of that. Maybe make it an Instant so it's a bit better on the initial cast.

Is this too OP for an uncommon land series?
>>
>>46426964
It's interesting. I think it might be better as Rare, but that's mostly because it easily solves color issues.

Being an enchantment does make it rather vulnerable though, and entering tapped sets it behind. Being a basic land is also a nice upside though.

Also, I'm pretty sure that art is already being used for an Island.
>>
>>46426964
I think I would make the cycle rare just because of how they would play in draft. Also, you should put in italics, above the other abilities, the intrinsic ability that the land gets for being an Island.
>>
>>46426964
Take away the island subtype and I think it might be alright.

I feel like the main effect may just be outright too powerful for anything below a rare, though.

That said, rarity of mana fixing varies so heavily by how multicolor heavy a set is, that it's almost pointless to comment.

Nonbasic lands below rare are usually pretty garbage though.
>>
>>46426964
Maybe compare it to Urborg, and the cycle of artifact lands. Enchantment hate can deal with a cycle of these, however, and they might not be as busted as the artifact lands. I feel like you should remove the basic land type just because I think the design would look cleaner without it, but mechanically it might be fine. If you keep it, maybe try changing the ability to "Other lands you control have […]". But fetching even a single one of these means you don't need any other single dual/tri/pain land in a deck full of basics to make it a multicolor deck. And enchantment searching can pick these up too. White/Other decks would be happy.

>>46438194
Shadowmoor was really focused on Color as a mechanic. There were a lot of cards that triggered when you cast spells of a certain color, which meant picking hybrid cards was more in-depth.

For example, if you were playing R/W, you'd go with a lot of R/W hybrid cards for some consistency. However, you might also pick up some W/G cards with effects when you cast a White or Green spell, which means you might also be tempted to pick up some R/G cards to combo with it, even if you're not including any Green at all.

To make it distinct, you'll want to somehow avoid encouraging this sort of overlap, or at least not focus on colors. Going for +1/+1 counters over -1/-1 will also help.
>>
>>46438194
do fate reforge style hybrid
>>
>>46438194
You could probably accomplish it by just making it only ally or enemy colored. All other uses of hybrid have been in blocks that use both, so just using one might be enough to make it different.
>>
>>46429643

I disagree, being able to pay a little bit of mana many times is very powerful, especially in draw-go. UU for "Investigate, then investigate" at instant speed is definitely undercosted compared to the investigate cards we've seen so far, and U+U is significantly better than even that

Ignoring the color pie mechanically, it still doesn't feel very Red. That sort of thing fits better in mono-black, as black is more prone to paying life for an effect like that.

That's the beauty of red. Say you've been enchanted; this specific vex causes you to be completely pacified. But you get this itch, this base feeling that something's off. You can't make logic of it, you can't put it in words, but you feel it. Like a smell you can't recall but remember so fondly.

Because that would be really fucking boring. Seriously, think about it.

>>
>>46447622
How about reworded so the spell deals damage to you, instead of a life cost?

Why make this?
Same reason any card exists that says "destroy enchantment". To kill enchantments. Unfortunately red and black can't do this, at all. If they pay 3x the mana and take a bunch of damage in the process I think it can be something that red and black are capable of doing.
A red one could be Stubborn Will and the black one could be Abyssal Intervention
>>
>>46447951
Alternatively, you can splash green or white if you really need to destroy an enchantment. Or play Spine of Ish Sah.

Black/Red anti-enchantment should be in the form of Aura Barbs, where they punish the player for having them.
>>
>>46447951
Blue also can't destroy Enchantments. Does that mean they should get cards to do so?

I'd argue no. Blue has ways to deal with them using bounces, counterspells, and gaining control of things. They have tools to play around enchantments without outright destroying them.

I think the same thing should be done with Red and Black. Give them tools to deal with them in a way that fits their color, rather than just color-shifting and up-charging White and Green effects.
>>

Blue is the only color with maindeck enchantment hate (aside from BG destroy spells). Blue has it easy man. You can't often deal with enchantments regularily.
While it could in the form of non-destruction, it needs to functionally remove it from the boardstate. A deck built around an enchantment cannot be dealt with by red.
>>
>>46448294
play Aura Barbs and kill them before their enchantments matter.
>>
>>46448294
How does that change what I said? Blue still isn't destroying Enchantments. It's doing Blue things to deal with them.

Similarly, Red should deal with Enchantments in a Red way. Not in a White way or a Green way.
