>U: Activate a heroic ability
Since 1-drop enchantments and auras area already a thing, I think most heroic/constellation effects accounted for this already. On paper it's breakable with Nylea's Colossus, but considering that if you can get that out and repeatedly cast this over and over again, you're in a spot to win anyway.
>Magus of the Wood
Don't like it. Going around untapped forests means it's going to be too easy to kill it without thinking about it. Making it something like X + 1 would work. It wouldn't make it an extraordinarily good card or anything, but it would at least not ask that you make sure you accidentally don't activate any death triggers on casting a Rampant Growth or anything.
>Serra Fuku Angel
It's good sans for that second level being a 2/3. All you have to do is make your turn 2 play a Tranquil Cove and you're now attacking with a 2/3 with Lifelink and Vigilance against whatever 1 drop your opponent played. The 3 sets it over since even if you went second, you could still reasonably swing this into a myriad of 2 drops your opponent would have and contend with them, and since it has vigilance there's practically no risk in doing so, and those are only the problems in limited. Making it a 2/2 might fix it in that regard.
<That typeface
With the M15 update to card designs, WotC made all cards in a new font they call Beleren. The MSE guys decided to make the program look for that typeface, but since Beleren as a font has copywrite around it, they didn't include it in the download. If you download the font, it should make your cards' rules text render properly. Don't ask my why they're worried about infringing that trademark while also having functionality for displaying the 6 mana logos and the tap symbol.

Had Beleren installed, but it seems the problem was the one I had wasn't the real one (since it was included in MSE). Why they would do that instead of defaulting to another font of Beleren isn't present is beyond me.
>Magus of the Wood
I considered X + 1, but wanted to make it as similiar to Wood Elemental as possible without being a piece of crap like Wood Elemental (Hence being a Magus).
>make Serra Fuku Angel a 2/2
Kay. Also had a small bit I wanted to have but didn't have the space for and now do since the fonts are working.

>Needing more than two cards tutored to win the game.
If you need nine tutored cards in hand to win a constructed game, you probably suck at Magic.
That deck would be a gimmick, since your combo doesn't actually win you the game. It gets you the pieces you would need to win the game, but you'd have two cards that are pretty much dead weight without each when you could just stop being cute and run Diabolic Tutor.
The only real deck that this could work with synergy is if you would run it in some deck that explicitly cares about X spells, but even then you're usually paying more per spell than usual anyway, so you're not going to be in a good place for this anyway.
Funnily enough you chose to set it at 3 whenever I'd argue that 2 breaks it even further since it practically turns itself and the revelations into Demonic Tutors with a chance at life gain, so maybe I'll lay off the scotch next time and make it XX2 instead next time I make a crappy little example..

The prince's tap ability is garbage as written. Replace it with "T: Exile target creature or artifact with a converted mana cost equal to or less than @'s toughness. Put a +1/+1 counter on @.
>>420881
No, it isn't. Partner doesn't grant the ability for non-creatures to be commander. While it is implied that having partner means it should be allowed as a commander, Magic uses statutory rules for everything. Everything needs to be spelled out in formatted legalese or be a keyword that references to formatted legalese in the rulebook.

That's fucking stupid. There's no reason why you should be able to start rolling a Katamari and be able to include a Steel Wall from the get-go, to be able to roll a pair of (Lightning) Grieves to then roll up a Locket. That's backwards - Magic doesn't consider the literal size of an artifact to be the main factor for its mana cost.
>Partner doesn't grant the ability for non-creatures to be commander
Partner was designed before Jace, Cunning Cataway - just like how Wizards changed how Partner functions to accommodate "with" (or Planewalkers entirely in order for that Jace to work) if they really wanted to print a noncreature Partner card for use as a commander, they'd amend 702.123a to only care about legendary permanents, since that would eliminate redundancy on wording. They didn't do that for Battlebond since it would have made Partner With clunky to introduce for something they wouldn't be using.

>The Prince
Magic's mechanics rarely represent real world logic one-to-one, and it takes a special kind of retardation to think they have to. Just go with something that works, maybe add a cost to the ability and stop being bad at cards.
>Partner
Partner still has no exception to allow cards that are not normally a commander to be your commander. No amount of citing rules changes to other keywords can change that.

>Is Prince supposed to require some outside buff to toughness to do anything?
Yep. Prince is too small to do anything without a Katamari giving him a head start. Maybe being 0/2 would be better, but honestly if the card were printed buffing it would be the go-to for most players, so it hardly matters.

(you) seem really mad. Are you doing okay? Being criticized for not being good at making cards really shouldn't get you this mad. All I did was point out that magic doesn't really care much about making sure cards, even flavorful ones, make perfect sense for their mechanics, and remind you that you can't make the rules do things they don't actually do.
Please, I'm begging you, get some rest. Or therapy.

That could work too, but you'd have to have some other cost besides mana to get it on the table even at CMC6. Discarding at a cost has barely been fucked with in 20-something+ years of magic because a single card is worth so much more than two mana or three life.

Because I like poison counters in general, but agree with R&D that giving poison counters and -1/-1 counters based on Power is too meta warping. So I thought I'd toy with bringing back the Venomous mechanic.

Okay. Then let me rephrase my previous statement. It effectively reads "0: each player loses 2 life." But if you're not playing against Poison, it reads "0: each opponent loses 2 life." Card is absolutely insane.
Meta warping? When? All the creatures with Infect suck except for Phyrexian Crusader. At any rate tying the number of counters gained to power seems like the least parasitic way to implement poison counters since pump and -X/-X effects are always being printed and placing -1/-1 counters instead of dealing damage makes them feel dangerous to creatures and players.

Persist would be much better for a Dark Souls setting than Undying, both because you get weaker after death and because it's a setting that's more about rot than growth, so it would be a -1/-1 setting, not a +1/+1 setting. Also because if you want to beat Dark Souls, the main thing you need is persistence.
