Welcome to the 6th Round of YMTC's The Mole! Only 8 players remain, who is the Mole? To get you started, I have a special-fun bonus round this week. GET YOUR ANSWERS IN QUICKLY! In the case of a tie, I'll award it to whoever answered first: Riddle Me This BATMAN!
Show
Riddle#1
“Someone famous I represent,
I disappeared a continent.
No tricks against me can you play,
Spells in exile there will stay.
Three printed walkers have I met,
Though now my own spark has set."
Riddle#2
A MaRo favourite is who I am.
Born to never interact with land.
Two parents combined my colours be,
A secondary colour is what you’ll see.
I change beasts from very short to very tall,
And used correctly will kill a wall  .
Riddle #3:
How is Samus (Super Metroid) like Zoetic Cavern  ?
Riddle #4:
In Time Spiral, what could be both Brown and Silver?
Riddle #5:
Lobster667 casts a Fireball  with X equaling 30, and divides it equally amongst 3 targets (Mono789, ChaosLight, and eddned) so they each take 10 damage. ChaosLight plays a lifegain/prevention deck though, and casts Angel of Salvation  , preventing the next 5 damage that the Fireball would do, so it only deals 25 damage. Since this is a multiplayer game though, she says she’ll be kind and distribute it evenly. But as that would be a fractional amount of damage, the extra 2 damage she prevents from hitting herself. She then reduces how much damage each player is dealt by 1 so that each player only takes 9 damage.
But wait, 3 times 9 is 27 damage, plus the 2 damage that ChaosLight prevented on herself is 29… what happened to 1 point of the damage? Onto the actual round! Design a card that can be played for 0 or no mana cost. Good luck!

Uh-oh! Another Mole Taunt! And then there was eight. Wait? This doesn't look right. I could have sworn only seven people entered a card. Surely there must be some tragic mistake? Oh wait, I guess not. Which leads me to ask why is it that there is so little effort being put into this contest by its contestants? This is a great contest! Never before has anything like this been done, and you know what? It has real world cash prizes. What more could you ask for?
As we head into the final eight contestants it is my most profound wish that this round succeed and avoid the previous round's more dismal fate. There are no holidays, no great national events, and no excuses. I hate to admit that I myself was bogged down with loved ones and didn't address you last round. So I wish to get things going in full swing again. In an honest endeavor (it has been known to occur on occasion) I would like to see if people can fit their entry for this round into the flavorful world of Innistrad for the upcoming set of 'Dark Ascension'. Do not do crazy, crazy, stuff. I was just perusing a few other contests and thought that it would be neat to do. Some of you have even started designing a few cards here and there for Dark Ascension so show off what you can do!

Real prizes have been done before on YMtC. Why do people keep saying they haven't been!
Real men hold shift.

Loss by Metal
Enchantment
At the beginning of your upkeep, you lose one life. Metalcraft- If you control three or more artifacts, target player gains control of CARDNAME. CARDNAME loses this abillity. The first answer is Karn.
[*c]Island[*/c] minus the * = Island  Really. You need to know this. Also

We are the Izzet
Some think we are scattered after the disappearance of Niv-Mizzet
He is connected to us by the firemind
He has formulated a master plan
Before, we were just experimenters, looked down upon
Now we have a greater purpose
This bit is random
And so is this
Yeah

Howling Summons |   Sorcery
You may tap a creature that transformed this turn instead of paying Howling Summons mana cost. Search your library for a wolf or werewolf card, reveal it, then shuffle your library and put that card on top of it. The howl of a soul transforming for the first time sears the sky, and draws new companions and enemies both.

Desperate Warding Instant (Rare)
Counter target spell. You lose life equal to that spell's converted mana cost. Fateful hour - You may cast ~ without paying its mana cost if your life total is 5 or less (you still have to pay any other costs of the spell).

Hat's off to you Lobster. That card's awesome. I declare you not the Mole.

Well, I was TRYING to prove that I'm not the Mole by forcing Yarium to say 'I'm continuing without Fistarnius, so yeah, obviously he's not the Mole.' but NOOooo, y'all had to ignore it, like it was just another little quip poking fun at reverse psychology. I even stopped posting, to reinforce my alibi. Did anyone notice that?? Goddamn. Here's a card. Wand of Destruction  Artifact ( Rare) Wand of Destruction enters the battlefield with X charge counters on it.  , Remove a charge counter from Wand of Destruction: Each player sacrifices an artifact, a creature, and a land.
