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.

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 Rogue
Players 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 - Aura
Enchant 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

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 - Beast
Trample
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 
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.

Probably right on Graft 2 vs 3, though exiling yard cards and untapping are both in green.

Also, I should have clarified what I meant. Wedge colors are: , , , ,

It is a balanced card and fits the precedent created with Woolly Thoctar , but does not add much design space with and . It would be more expensive, but could exist only in .


Mindscorch Falls
Land
: Add to your mana pool.
, : Use this ability only when you Cascade. Exile the top card of your library until you reveal a nonland card. Use the converted mana cost of this card instead of the spell cast to Cascade. Put cards exiled this way on the bottom of your library in random order. (When you cascade, exile cards from the top of your library until you exile a nonland card that costs less. You may cast it without paying it's mana cost. Put the exiled cards on the bottom of the library in random order)
The intensity of the Falls represents the turmoil in the minds of those nearby

Ingredients:

  • Non-standard mana costs
  • Tokens
  • Uncommon Rarity
  • Benefits target opponent.


Edit: Looks like someone got in before me. That's what I get for wandering off while writing this post :P
