Un-set syle cards

[KingAlanI]

Okay, anyone have some good ideas for Unhinged or Unglued-style cards?


I'll make a stab at my own question

"Library of Altoona"
Card Type: Not-So-Legendary Land
P/T: N/A (actually have the card say this)
Rules Text:

Tap to add two chartreuse mana to your mana pool or tap to draw on Yu-Gi-Oh card; use the card-drawing ability only if you have exactly seven years in your lifetime.

Yu-Gi-Oh!

Okay, how about:

Bak, Pig Servant 1GW
Creature - Pig
Walk.
Non-flying creatures without the ability to walk can't attack. (The ability to walk includes Islandwalk, Forestwalk, Denimwalk, etc)
GW, T: Remove a creature you control from the game. As long as that card is removed from the game, <this> gets +X/+0 where X is that cards power.
3/3

You know, Hurloon Wrangler aside, this card could work as a normal card too. Just replace "Walk" with something like "Sorrow's Pathwalk" and change the second part to "Non-flying creatures without landwalk abilities can't attack." It would be pretty good...

Thanks.. I just liked the "ability to walk" phrase..

Did you catch the (horrible) joke in the name?

I'm afraid I don't get it...

I'd hope anyone gets the horrible joke in MY card's name.
I like the comment in mine anout Yugioh being played by 7-year-olds.

2 chartreuse mana-any color of mana can be used for Colorless, right? So this card has an actual MTG gameplay use.

The Pig Servant is interesting, but not in the kind of silly Un-Set only stuff kind of way.

The idea is that other creature 'piggy back' so that they can attack..



And Altoona? I'm afraid I need an explanation..

 

[KingAlanI]

"Altoona" is the name of some small US towns, do a English-language Wikipedia search for a list. Perhaps Library of Podunk would be a bit more understandable?
It represnets the library of some small town as opposed to library of Alexandria.

Thanks for the explanation.

I wouldn't have gotten "Library of Podunk" either.. seems I'm missing part of the American lingo.
