Confusion counters? Especially if there are multiple cards that interact with the counters, it might be confusing to figure out what the total effect is :D

Confusion Counters
Detriment Counters
Fume Counters
Buttsniff Counters

Actually, the Decay part of it came from the effect not the creature type. I thought that all Decay counter stuff should be bad, but not just for your opponents.

The all counters type of enchantments: I thought they would "Synergize" with the remove counters type stuff that is in our new set already.
Maybe a bunch of creatures that have abilities to move or remove counters.

*BTW - I really like the word Synergy, it sounds like we actually know what the heck we are doing.*

I like Synergy counters. That sounds like it would work.

I like the concept of having all of the counters cards like this be Synergy. The Squids. The Carrier. The Enchantments. Everything.


Is anybody making a new file of all the newer cards and art additions?

I like Ransac's Buttsniff counters idea.

How about this:

Matchbox 3
Artifact
Matchbox comes into play with 5 Match counters on it.
2,T, Remove a Match counter from Matchbox: Remove a Buttsniff counter from target creature. If there are no Match counters left, sacrifice Matchbox.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, the names will probably be changed, but I couldn't think of another name.

Huh... interesting. A card with the sole purpose of removing other types of counters....

With such a limited role, you could reduce the cost to 2 or 1, I think.

Yes, this is what I was talking about.
The Matchbox cc could be 2.

And......

Goblin Rockmover
2R
Haste
Whenever <this> deals damage to an opponent, you may remove a counter from target permenent.
2/2

How about a new mechanic? Or just a few creatures with this ability, kind of like the en-Kor creatures.

Support: An activated ability
Creatures with the support ability can redirect damage from other creatures;

Example

Bodyguard
3W
Creature - Human
1,T:Support (when target creature would be dealt damage, you may redirect all or part of the damge to <THIS>)
1/4

We have an awful lot of mechanics right now. Keep bringing them in, but remember that we'll be cutting them down, too.

Nothing wrong with that. What we NEED though is someone to compile the set in the MTG editor file so we can see where we are at.

I've bumped all of the old threads. Someone compile those. I've printed off this thread and the Finalize thread and am updating the MTG Editor file (I hate doing this :( )

Hmm........ I have no clue what FTP means. But if you want one of us to e-mail the program itself, I don't have the .zip file anymore (at least, I haven't been able to find it).
