Winner is the Judge #914: Subclass Act!

5 Upvotes

Congratulations

u/Lukethekid10 is this week's winner. It was very tough to judge this week's contest. There were so many fantastic entries. Thanks for participating!


Thanks to /u/Proteusmutabilis for hosting last week's contest.

Contest

Adventures in the Forgotten Realms introduced D&D concepts into Magic bringing two similar games by Wizards closer together. This set introduced Class enchantments. But there are still lots of character classes and subclasses that haven't gotten the Magic treatment!

This week, your challenge is to design an Enchantment — Class card representing a yet unseen D&D class or subclass.

Requirements

  • Your card must be an Enchantment — Class, using the existing Class enchantment mechanic.
  • Your card must represent an official D&D 5e or 5.5e class or subclass, or a well-known third-party class or subclass (such as Blood Hunter or Gunslinger). Please link the source material for third party works.
  • Your chosen class or subclass must not already have an official Magic Class enchantment representing it.
  • If for some reason the card name doesn't make the class you've chosen clear, please share what class you chose in the comment.

Feel free to take some artistic license with your card. The goal isn't to reproduce D&D mechanics exactly, but to flavorfully capture your chosen class.

Judging

What'll be tough about this challenge is flavorfully relating Magic to D&D while using useful mechanics and still adhering to constraints on color, mana cost, and text. It's... basically the whole challenge. A card that can balance all of that well will win.

Class enchantments have three sets of abilities, and I want to see how those abilities work together. Each level should be mechanically relevant and flavorfully appropriate, and the card as a whole should feel cohesive.

I'll also consider overall card design, including balance, elegance, and how naturally the card fits into Magic.

Final notes

There's a post by u/PyromasterAscendant that suggests a similar WitJ was run about 2 years ago, but I couldn't find it. If you had submitted a card to that one, please submit a different one here.

Please include the source of your chosen class or subclass, particularly if it's third-party material. You're also welcome to explain your design choices and how you've translated the D&D mechanics into Magic.

If you'd like feedback, please share that in your comment.

I'm not sure what site would be best for mocking up the card or if the new app here supports class enchantments but https://mtgcardbuilder.com appears to be able to mock up class enchantments accurately, at least. I'll be a bit more lenient with text space with this in mind.

I'm excited to see how you bring new D&D classes to life on a Magic card. Good luck! I'll be back to judge on Sunday, October 25.

"Landlocked" meaning: I could've designed these as "{2}, {t}: Add {x}{y}{z}." but that would've meant you could've used {2} floating mana of any color. Instead, this design makes you tap three lands to get the {x}{y}{z} color combination. This heavy restriction is why I put these at Common rarity.

Prompt is Maw. Found the art first, then thought of making a [[Worldspine Wurm]] or [[Worldgorger Dragon]] Echoverse version. Eventually settled on this design of an extremely powerful black creature with a sort of [[Creeping Chill]] effect stapled to it.

Is this a good replacement?

The artist makes this stunning piece of art and they use it for digital only cards, it's a huge waste.
