Flickering Embers [MTG/ZnT] Quest

Hey... they don't have Eldrazi or Slivers or that black goo that is Praxis... it's a pretty damn nice world.

This Louise will be the next Chandra.
 
To clarify things, louise has one <Anycolor> mana, and one <Red> mana. So she could cast a <Anycolor>C spell, a RR spell, or a CC spell, if there is a spell that takes two colorless.

Edit: And she can only do instants or sorceries right now, as she's operating on 'take mana, shove mana through wand' level of knowledge.

Gianth GROWT for louise!

Mana cost aside, is our library of spells anything in MTG or do we need to discover them somehow? Because if it's anything, we currently have access to a shit ton of removal and other goodies.


Also, who needs Giant Growth when you have Brute Force?

That plan is a thing of beauty and wonder, and must be done.
 
I has made a mod to my vote for MORE fire power~
 
Come on people. We're a void mage.. We should explore that side of our magic.. Which means going Swamp..

Then suggest something that you can do with 9 BLACK mana and 1 Colorless/Red mana... with 4 x BLACK RITUAL

Alrighty... Just using the cards close at hand (I don't feel like going to get my whole box out).. Here's what I've come up with.

And I'm not suggesting we go pure Black.. I just think we should step away for a second from Red.. Multi Colored is better and really.. Black = Void.. Why not explore that aspect for pure thematic reasons if nothing else?

Please bear in mind the limitations we're currently under;
  • start with (1) any color mana, and (1) red mana (can be converted to colorless)
  • spells are currently mono-color thus to trying things out
  • Only instant and Sorcery spells. No creature summons, no enchantments, no artifacts, no planeswalkers.
Within that limitation... what can you do?
Bearing in mind, Louise has NO idea what she can do and is still thinking of pump magic into wand and get special effect.

Mine is cooler...
 
Crazyfoxdemon, what makes you think Void is Black? Void isn't a part of the MtG setting, its a one Plane phenomenon. It isn't Black, because it isn't tied to swamps or darkness. It's Void, defined as the Absence of something. The fact that it does stuff that requires high level Planeswalkers to replicate is just an awesome bonus.
 
If anything Void seems closer to COLORLESS... and you know who has COLORLESS magic? ELDRAZI~

The way the OP wrote the first choices on which Color to use.

No reply to the fact that I totally outdid your grand explosion?

It wasn't about grand explosion... it's about Louise summoning a 14/1 elemental token and going oh shit! and stopping it with a nice bolt of doom.

Explosions are easy, shatterstorms are easy, killing EVERYONE in the school is easy...

I did the exact same thing only including killing 4 demons beforehand.
 
And going non monocolor, which is a violation of the terms that I set out the options in. Biigoh's option is something someone first experimenting with MTG style magic could feasibly do. Yours involves invoking multiple demons and then using them as power sources for an effect in another color.

And to clarify, while void is not black, black is sometimes void. (But not always. It's just the simplest way to invoke it. Note that simplest does not mean best)
 
Meh, whatever; I'm not really interested in being Chandra: The Sequel anyways...

If I tried a huge write

actually yeah pretty much I'm having this huge plot bunny but I'm scared of what may happen and such because uh yeah I know nothing of MtG.

At all.

MTG is like Yugi-Oh with 1/10 the health/attack/defense power of cards and needs resources to use cards.

It is also an expensive habit if you go "legit" Friday Night Magic matches/tournament as opposed to casuals...

And even then.. It gets really expensive when you start getting into the costs of some Legacy decks...

Hey, that's not right- MTG came FIRST.

Yu-Gi-Oh is a crappy asian knockoff, which happens to have an anime about it.
