That's not how P/T works.
What you have is a triggered ability, meaning the creature should be a +1/+1.

However, it's more likely you want a static ability, or a characteristic defining ability.

~ gets +1/+1 for each black mana you have added to your mana pool this turn.
0/1

or

~'s power is equal to the amount of black mana you have added to your mana pool this turn, and its toughness is equal to that number +1.
*/*+1


I don't understand why this game bothers with characteristic defining abilities, to be honest. With regards to P/T, you lose a lot more than you gain.

The rules don't define mana addition as sequential like card draw. I wasn't sure of the wording so I went with what seemed right.

Yes. Demon Plant Avatar.
The demon avatar of a plant planeswalker
Yes. I said plant planeswalker. Since he's a seed burried underground in this block, there isn't much he can just go do to interact, so that's where the avatar part comes in... And he's black aligned (and other plot things that I don't feel like writing out right now) so it's a demon.

That's what I get for posting hastily, it's actually a 0/1, I just forgot to change it in my file when editing earlier and didn't think about it when posting.
