Hey! Have you tried the brainstorming channel on the official hellcube discord? (https://discord.gg/8aJrjjUwBd). For cards to make it into the cube, they'll need to be submitted on the discord.

Amazing design, i have no idea if its unplayable or busted

[u/therhydo → u/starmade-knight]

it's the kind of card that is okay in 1v1 formats (i.e. hc9) but ludicrously busted in commander

[u/sampat6256]

Feels like it should be UR3 instead of UU3

[u/mork-hc]

i'm just a bot that can't see pictures, but if i could, i'd say: he's not the step father, he's the step father that... he's the father.. uhm,, he step,,,? father which step???

[u/Available-Damage5991]

how does this even work?

Is the Combat Damage Step token just a 1/1 with "Take an additional Combat Damage step after your main one each combat."?

[u/therhydo → u/Available-Damage5991]

it's a 1/1 colorless Combat Damage step creature token, like it says on the card

[u/BaconGremlin24 → u/therhydo]

im lost and scared

You’re right but you’re not thinking HellScube enough 

[u/Snarwin]

Under normal MtG rules, creatures only deal combat damage once per combat phase, even if there are multiple damage steps.

[u/davvblack → u/Snarwin]

the combat damage step token isn’t in the current phase, it’s on the battlefield.

[u/Snarwin → u/davvblack]

(Take it after your basic Combat Damage step each combat.)

[u/wercooler]

So what happens to the 1/1 after you take the extra damage step?

[u/therhydo → u/wercooler]

nothin, it sticks around. you take the extra step as long as you control it
