I would prefer to defer judgment until Wizards makes a decision regarding their status on Magic Online if and when they are released there, but I don't see that happening, so I am obviously against.
Unless I am missing something, any card that says “conjure a random creature card” is virtually impossible to adjudicate in 4CB, since the opponent decides the outcome of the random effect and there are thousands of cards from which to choose. How will anyone be sure the opponent is choosing the random outcome most favorable to them? Of course, a card that says “conjure a random creature card” would be unplayable in 4CB for power-level reasons, but even though nobody would *want* to use it, it still bothers me that it would essentially break the game if someone did.
Edit: Pool of Vigorous Growth is the one I’m thinking of.
You don't get a token. You get a card. BoP has a point. This is crazy.
But it's also very funny. So here, have an Autochthon Wurm. Have fun with it.
By the way, score right now is 3x don't care, 3x not legal during current season.

Not nearly terrible enough, I'm sorry to say you're not eligible to be a Chaos Lord.
A friend of mine who doesn't play magic suggested Leviathan. I was impressed.

The trick is that traditional Backbuild has been answering the question of conditionally bad creature cards for years. (Chaos Lord has the Backbuild issue of requiring Lotus Bloom mana to be castable, which itself is a liability against Flailing Soldier, but you couldn't know that.)
I have not checked anything related to legality announcements for those cards, but
assuming Wizards has not made a decision as described below, I’m for at-least-roughly Wrath of Pie ’s idea.
Specifically: Not legal for now, to be reconsidered if Wizards allows them in MtGO rather than just Arena
Unless I'm confused, there are now slightly less than 48 hours left before the deadline.
You are not. Deadline in less than 48 hours. Don't forget to send your decks!
Reminder:
Adventures in the Forgotten Realms will be legal next round, not this one.
Jumpstart: Historic Horizons is still in flux, but from our current voting it looks like most prefer to keep it out of our competition for this season at least, so that's where we stand right now.

Just want to throw in a reminder that I am out for the remainder of this season. Hopefully I'll have time to jump back in on the next though.

I really appreciated the break due to my busy summer. I am excited to see if my deck measures up to what people did tomorrow.
I'm just interested in how terrible my entry is going to be.
Thanks for the reminder. I had forgotten about that and added you to the list of regulars who haven't sent their entry yet.
Speaking of which: the deadline has passed, and I'm missing entries from many regulars: FTW, Tylert, Gobbo, silk and Serguei, by the looks of things.
I'll give you guys a little bit more time, but I'll be posting decks tonight, so don't wait too long!

I have a super busy week, so I have to post when I can. So can't wait for the last player. Here we go.
