Opulent Lechery
:b::b:
Enchantment
Pay 1 life: Exile target card from your graveyard. Exile target card from an opponent's graveyard. Draw a card. Play this ability no more than once each turn.
Mystic of the Sun
WR
Creature - Kor Wizard
R, tap: Deal two damage to target creature.
W, tap: Target permanent gains protection from the color of your choice until end of turn.
1/4
Some ideas:
Gemstone Crypt
Land
When ~GC enters the battlefield, pay X life. ~GC enters the battlefield with X mining counters on it. If there are no mining counters on ~GC, sacrifice it.
Tap: Add :1: to your mana pool.
Tap, Remove a mining counter from ~GC: Add one mana of any color to your mana pool.
Brass Mox
Artifact
:0:
~BM enters the battlefield tapped and doesn't untap during your untap step. At the beginning of your upkeep, you may pay 1 life. If you do, untap ~BM.
Tap: Add one mana of any color to your mana pool.
Magus of the Oath
Creature – Elf Wizard Druid
:g::g:
1/2
Tap, Sacrifice ~MotO: Reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a mono-green creature card with power 5 or more. Put that card onto the battlefield and all other cards revealed this way on the bottom of your library in any order.
Magus of the Balance
Creature – Human Wizard
:1::w::w:
2/2
During your upkeep, each player chooses a number of lands he or she controls equal to the number of lands controlled by the player who controls the fewest, then sacrifices the rest. Players discard cards, sacrifice creatures and remove counters from all planeswalkers the same way.
Magus of the Force
Creature – Merfolk Wizard
:2::u::u:
1/4
Channel – Return basic Island on top of your library, Discard ~MotF: Counter target nonmana ability or nonpermanent spell.
cont.
Magus of the Hatred
Creature – Dauthi Wizard
:b::b:
1/2
Shadow.
:1::b::b:, Tap, Pay X life, Sacrifice ~MotH: Target creature gets +X/-1 and gains shadow until end of turn.
Magus of the Wildfire
Creature – Dwarf Wizard
:1::r::r:
2/2
:0:: Each player sacrifices four permanents, discards 4 cards and ~MotW deals 4 damage to each player. Use this ability only if 6 or more mana has been spent by your opponents to play spells this turn, and only once each turn.
Magus of the oath would be perfectly balanced as a 1/1 or even 2/2 for the original mana cost of oath of druids, being himself a creature:
Magus of the oath 1G
Creature - Magus
~ oath of druid text.
2/2
It's an hatebear for creature, quite the elegant design. You can't use it to cheat things reliably either since he's a creature himself and can be found via the oath trigger.
Spell maguses have been T, sac effects. A 1W magus of balance at 0/1 could be not broken (telegraphed, removable).
Brass mox is hilariously OP.
EDIT: a cycle of Leylines cause why not
Leyline of growth 2GG
Enchantment
~ Leyline clause
At the beginning of your opponent's upkeep, search your library for a basic land card, reveal it and add it to your hand.
Leyline of creativity 2RR

A pair of artifact in honor of the Vise/Rack
Mishra's Great Dam 1
Artifact
At the beginning of your upkeep, you may put a basic land card from your hand on the bottom of your library. If you do, draw a card.
This should fix all those floods on the crops! - Mishra, to Urza

You are too limited, look, we can fix both! - Yagwmoth, to the Brothers
Tsabo's Moon 2
Artifact
Activated abilities of lands that aren't mana abilities can't be played.
An alternate blood moon that hit fetches the hardest, but also is incredibly good vs wastelands/ports in sol decks as it allow you to still mantain your greater mana generation while hosing your opponent mana development and mana denial strategies. Bonus random hoser of karakas and dark depths.
I think this would be fairer than Blood Moon, though it should replace it not be an aditional card.Quote:

I initially wanted this to cost just :b:, but it works so well against enemy fetchlands, that a player shouldn't be able to cast it the first turn under normal circumstances. Otherwise, it works really well with Smallpox, Pox, enemy Wastelands, Innocent Blood, Liliana of the Veil, etc.
School of Fish
5UU Instant
Put a 4/4 Fish onto the battlefield
Storm
Why can't I have this crappy card? High Tide->Turnabout->doyoulikefishsticks?
also,DragoFireheart CONFIRMED to have developed Mental Misstep. Wow... Drago bless my post, maybe WotC will do my dream Time Spiral 2.0 and we will have this time-shifted storm spell.Quote:

1/1
Morphing Memories :4::u::u:
Instant
As an additional cost to cast Morphing Memories, a player of your choice discards his or her hand.
The chosen player draws ten cards.
Mana Fading :1::b::b:
Enchantment
Permanents don't untap during their controllers' untap steps.
At the beginning of each player's end step, that player loses X life, where X is 2 plus the number of untapped permanents he or she controls.
Pawn of Yawmgoth :1::b::b:
Creature - Zombie Wizard

Many a Planeswalker have tried, most go blind ;)
Seeker of Legends :w:
Creature - Human Soldier Scout
When Seeker of Legends enters the battlefield, you may search your library for a legendary card and reveal that card. Shuffle your library, then put the card on top of it.

The Hero Legacy Deserves (2)
Instant
The Hero Legacy Deserves costs (1) less to cast if you control a basic land.
Draw 3 cards, then put two cards from your hand ontop of your library in any order.
For the rest of the game cards named Brainstorm cannot be cast.
"They said they'd quit if we banned it."
I don't think a cantrip like brainstorm is going to feel on-color if you just strap some conditions onto it. Better some variants which fit better with the color pie:
Fall Back W
Instant
Scry 3, then manifest the top card of your library.
Put a permanent you control on top of its owner’s library.
Paranoid Fetchings B
Instant
Reveal the top three cards of your library and put them into your hand. You lose life equal to their total converted mana cost. Then discard two cards.
Storm Brain R
Instant
You may draw a card. If you don’t, draw a card at the beginning of the next turn’s upkeep.

Mirri's Tactics G
Instant
Whenever a creature deals combat damage to a player this turn, you may draw a card. If you do, put a card from your hand on top of your library.
Draw a card.
White is easily the most difficult to do, as it's not associated with library manipulation or card drawing at all.
A card disadvantage bauble-brainstorm would not break the color pie at all, and at 0, even with the card disadvantage it'd be played.
Brainstorm's bauble 0
Artifact
Sac: draw 2, put 2 back on top.
I'd like fewer games to be completely one-sided, so:
Sensei's Broken Toy :1:
Artifact
:1:, Sac ~: Scry 2, then draw a card.
:2:, Sac ~: Exile target card in a graveyard.
:4:, Sac ~: Return target spell or permanent to its owner's hand.
It used to spin for hours, but no longer.
A colorless Preordain to combat mana screw. A weak way to interact with just about any nonsense that your deck would normally just lose to.
I like it. I'd change the number arounds, but I like the intent.Quote:

Just for funsies... what would a Yawgmoth Planeswalker look like? I will post my idea of one tonight... anyone else want to join in and we can see who's idea is the coolest/best?
Æther Bauble :1:
Artifact

What do you think?

That -2 ability is grossly OP.Quote:

Enter the Infinite or Ulamog, the Ceaseless Hunger come to mind, but I'm pretty sure there would be better choices.Quote:

I'd like this but as an enchant world type of card, where both players get to use its ability. Like:Quote:

I was reading Byant Cook's TES Mailbox #10 and they asked him for custom cards he'd like to see and one he said was this
But that made me think of thisQuote:
Thalia's Undoing
:b::b:
Sorcery
All creatures get -2/-2 until end of turn.
Kills Thalia if she's on the board, and -3/-3 for 3 under Trinisphere isn't badQuote:
Taxes-in-General Undoing
:0:
Sorcery
Taxes-in-General Undoing is Black
All creatures get -X/-X until end of turn, where X is the mana spent on this spell.
Æther Fuse :2::u::r:
Instant
Counter target spell. If that spell is countered this way, destroy each permanent that produced mana that was spent to cast it.
Screeching Cobra :g::g::g:
Creature - Snake
Noncreature, nonland permanents have "At the beginning of your upkeep, sacrifice this permanent unless you pay :2:."
Its hissing isn't audible, but it resonates within inorganic elements with such force that they can shatter in seconds.
4/4
Void Elemental <>
Creature - Elemental
Whenever Void Elemental becomes the target of a spell or ability, you may pay 1 life. If you do, exile Void Elemental, then return it to the battlefield under its owner's control.
<>: Exile Void Elemental. Return it to the battlefield under its owner's control at the beginning of the next end step.
It's hard to interact with something that doesn't exist.
1/1
Engineered Magnet XX
Artifact
Engineered Magnet enters the battlefield with X charge counters on it.
Whenever an artifact with converted mana cost equal to the number of charge counters on Engineered Magnet enters the battlefield under an opponent's control, gain control of that artifact.
Griselbrand's Amulet :1::b:
Artifact
As Griselbrand's Amulet enters the battlefield, choose a nonland card name.
Spells with the chosen name cost an additional "pay 7 life" to cast.
X-for-1 counterspell with land destruction. I guess Cryptic Command just wasn't good enough for you.Quote:

Would this be too good, interaction with Isochron Sceptre aside?
Draw Hate :b:
Instant
Target player can't draw cards this turn. Exile Draw Hate.
You can either jam the natural draw phase of your opponent (to give it use outside of cantrip hating; I'm aware that's very strong and is sometimes a Time Walk) or counter a cantrip.
I think UBx plays this though. It's basically a 1-mana leovold that makes a pyromancer token (though at least it doesn't delve to Angler, very clever)Quote:

If a player would draw a card other than the first card they draw in each of their draw phases, that player skips that draw instead.
That's also never going to happen but you need a hammer like RiP that doesn't synergize with the thing you're trying to hate on itself. Even then RIP gets played in Snapcaster decks and DRS decks occasionally so your mileage may vary.
Some love for red.
Impetus :r::r:
Sorcery
Search your library for a creature card with "This creature attacks each turn if able" and put it onto the battlefield. Then shuffle your library.
Slave of Niv-Mizzet :1::r:

:r:: Slave of Niv-Mizzet gets +1/+0 until end of turn.
2/1
Forked Spark :r:
Sorcery
Kicker - Sacrifice an untapped land.
Forked Spark deals 2 damage to target creature. If Forked Spark was kicked, it deals 2 damage to up to one other target creature. If the sacrificed land was a Forest, Forked Spark deals 3 damage to each of those creatures instead.
Frenetic Exploration :2::r:
Sorcery
Choose a nonbasic land card name. Search your library for any number of permanent cards with the chosen name and put them onto the battlefield tapped. Then shuffle your library.
Revered Nomad :1::r:
Creature - Human Advisor
At the beginning of your upkeep, reveal cards from the top of your library until you reveal a nonbasic land card. Put that card into your hand and the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order.
2/1
I would like an effect like this one :
Choose a legendary creature you control. It becomes your commander if it shares exactly the same color(s) identity of your commander.
Without looking up the other creatures, RR for ruric thar the unbowed from deck is bustedQuote:
