Hello and welcome to YMtC Ingredients! This contest will be setup like the food network contest, Chopped, but there is a single designer each round. The designer is responsible for creating a card using all four criteria ingredients decided by the previous designer, critiquing the design before them, and supplying four new criteria ingredients. I will start with four easy ingredients:
  
- Converted mana cost matters set.
- Trample
- 5/X
Contest-Specific Redeemable Prizes: DaytimeLantern - +5 points on any score-based contest. Redeemable once. If contest is multiple rounds, only redeemable in a single round.

Okay, here is the clincher. I've been waiting to say this.
The "cam girl" this was inspired by was just a girl from a social networking website, Stickam. Her name was TinyTerror and she was just a regular girl who was on her webcam, totally unrelated to any type of adult content.
I hope you all feel really smart now. 
This is like someone coming into class with a bloody nose and everyone's like "Jeez what happened to you" and they're like "I ran into a wall" and everyone laughs at them for being an idiot but then at the end of the class they say "HAHA JUST KIDDING I PUNCHED MYSELF IN THE FACE!!!!!! TALK ABOUT OWNED HAHAHAHAHA"
I really enjoy imagining this from Kevin's perspective. Because in Kevin's world, Rosewater actually reads everything he types. Mark is sitting there right now, reading this, and thinking "The greatest trick the devil ever pulled. . ." Or some such. He chuckles low, then clicks on "The Best Of KEVINSET" and says "Yes, this'll do just fine. A busty lady with banding who deals direct damage to Zones!? Why this will be the star of my next set, and no one will ever believe you Kevin." Then he closes his Macbook, so his servant may move it out of the way, while another servant puts a Fetal Richard Garfield Clone lathered in Steak Sauce in front of him. Then Mark Feasts.
Sorin walked into the chamber where his newly wed bride, Vampy, awaited. A beam of moonlight illuminated his brilliant silver hair as he strode with confidence towards the bed. His shirtless body showcased his powerful abdominal muscles and he was wearing jeans with holes in the knees.
I wish more girls play magic cards... 
Have you considered assassinating Kevin?

Some flavor text could tie the current name to the card mechanics. The card feels a little lackluster, too. In fact, it doesn't feel very red. That being said, it is an effortless attempt at including all of the ingredients and it feels very natural. There are just a few minor tweaks that need to be made to make the card perfect. Mindsource Deviant -   Creature - Human RoguePlayers may skip their draw step. Fateful Hour - Whenever this creature deals combat damage to a player, if you have five or less life, the defending player puts all but one card from the top of his or her library to his or her graveyard. 1/1 I couldn't quite get the hybrid mana cost in there, but I chose to do Phyrexian mana instead. Ingredients:
- Tokens matters set.
- Orochi
- "doesn't untap during its controller's next untap step"
- Enchantment
Contest-Specific Redeemable Prizes: DaytimeLantern - +5 points on any score-based contest. Redeemable once. If contest is multiple rounds, only redeemable in a single round.

Obviously need the player to make opponent's draw, or a sac outlet. I like it, except phy-mana, which doesn't serve any purpose. Genju of the Orochi :2m  Enchantment - AuraEnchant Forest Enchanted Forest has "  : Put a 1/1 green snake token on the battlefield and it. Enchanted Forest doesn't untap during its controller's next untap step. Ingredients: - Multicolour - Related to combat - Contain the word "dies" - Exalted

Ghostflame Enkindler |   Creature - SpiritExhalted Whenever a non-token creature you control dies, if it attacked alone this turn, put a 1/1 white spirit token with flying and exalted into the battlefield. 3/3 Ingredients: - Creature - "creature(s) with a power of 2 or less" - The creature itself must have a power or 3 or greater

Remember to critique the previous design! @Sebanovich: It's incredibly overpriced. Sure, it creates creature tokens, but it is also limited to Forests and the drawback is substantial. I would make it   . I like that the flavor comes from Kamigawa, being a Genju and everything. I'm not sure what the "and it" part of the ability does. @Tekkahedron: This card is pretty powerful, from a limited perspective. There are a few grammar issues (exalted and "onto the battlefield"). Overall, a solid design. Heartwood Carver -   Creature - BeastTrample If Heartwood Carver is blocked by a creature with power 2 or less, prevent all damage Heartwood Carver would deal this turn. Its tusks frighten the mice and the rabbits of the forest, but the frailty of their life frightens this beast.8/2
Ingredients:
- Simic
- Wolf creature type
- +1/+1 counters
- the graveyard
Contest-Specific Redeemable Prizes: DaytimeLantern - +5 points on any score-based contest. Redeemable once. If contest is multiple rounds, only redeemable in a single round.

For 4 CMC, I would like at least Graft 3. The activated ability is not green, it's more white or black. I like the flavor connection between the creature's name and it being a Mutant. A decent design. Thornache Hoofer -   Creature - Beast
Trample Thornache Hoofer can't attack unless you control an untapped Forest. The trees bend under the weight of this immaculate beast.5/5 Ingredients:
- Nonbasic land
- the top of your library
- Cascade
- blue mana
