Today's Challenge:
If you can't, you lose the game

.::To Enter::.
In a single post:
  • Name exactly two other players to vote for their entries for the previous challenge. (In the event that there are two or fewer entries that you are allowed to vote for, you may vote for only one.)
  • Make a card that fits the current challenge.
  • Include an "If I Win" (IIW) for tomorrow's challenge if you win.
Each day we use the challenge of the previous day's winner. In the case of a tie, we'll use the IIW of the tied player who has least overall points. In case of a further tie, the IIW of the earlier poster will be used.

Hm: netn10 That's one beautiful black Tooth and Nail. These are all great but I had to choose between you and folding_music. Abusable mana ramp vs tooth and nail is a hard call but the combo potential is what won it for him. A grixis vamp is an automatic lock for me

Final Double Jeopardy R

The next time an opponent would win the game this turn, instead they don't. Your life total becomes 1 and you phase out.
At the beginning of your next turns end step, pay X plus one life, where X is equal to your life total. If you can't, you phase out of the game. (You lose the game.)
