    Default whats wrong with this card? (new create a card game)

    In this game you make a card is wrong or doesnt make sense rulewise. Users have to determine whats wrong with the card. This game can help newbies learn about the rules.

    If you are a judge or know the rules very well or something then most likely it will be easy for you to spot whats wrong with the card - so dont answer in this case, but feel free to post cards of your own. there can be many cards posted at same time you dont have to wait for someone to answer earlier cards. when answering, quote the card (s) you are answering about.

    Here is an example:

    Energizing Liquid 2WW
    Instant
    Target creature with protection from white gains +5/+5 and first strike.

    The answer to whats wrong the card above is that since Energizing Liquid is white itself, it cannot target a creature with protection from white.


    ok so here is one:

    Blue lightning 1U
    Sorcery
    Counter target spell. If a spell was countered this way, target creature an opponent control gains protection from blue until end of turn.

    no its not that, because when blue lightning resolves the creature is a legal target (assuming it didnt already have protection from blue) so there's no problem with blue lightning giving that creature protection from blue.

    keep trying though...

    Counterspells don't work as sorceries. Simple.

    yep you got it

    Sorceries can only be cast on your turn, and when the stack is empty. and a spell cant target itself. So there is no way to cast a counterspell as a sorcery

    A couple more (these might be a bit harder)

    Lunatic Warrior 1RB
    Creature - Human Soldier
    When lunatic warrior enters the battlefield, target player discards 3 cards and you lose 3 life
    T: The next sorcery spell you cast this turn can't be countered
    1/3


    Look into the future XUU
    Instant
    Reveal the top X cards from your library. You may put a card from among them with converted mana X into the battlefield. Then remove from the game the rest of the cards revealed this way.

    Arctic Beach
    Land
    When you cast Arctic Beach, you may return two target land cards you control from the battlefield to your hand. If you don't, sacrifice Arctic Beach.

    i guess noone knows the answer, it was that colorless is not a color... all the other abilities i put many of them to distract you from the incorrect one

    whenever a creature you control reaches negative toughness, you may pay 1. If you do, regenerate that creature.

    Since nobodies said anything... I'll point it out. The card IS white, it can't target a creature with protection from white.
    I knew you liked to nitpick, but to actually start a thread to make people notice their mistakes with creating cards? WOW!!!

    Once a creature has a toughness less than zero, it's destroyed anyway, so it's pointless to say negative.

    If the card is an instant or sorcery, THEN it would be wrong. Instants and Sorceries never enter the battlefield.

    Is it that you cannot cast sorcery when in attack stage?

    Yep you're right. cards that say to put something into the battlefield always specify someting like "permanent card" or "creature card" or "land card". see for example Growth Spasm or Wild Pair
