FF Magic Cards!

[FFnut]

I have finally decided on what I should do with my life - and that is to create Magic: The Gathering cards based off of Final Fantasy! My friend hacked a Magic Card Maker demo to make it a full version, and he gave it to me. The question is... should I go through with it? And if so, could you guys give me some ideas (Power/Toughness, color, cost, abilities, or even just what it should be a card of) to start off with?

 

[Gumdrop]

I'll try and help if you like, but I don't know how I can....

 

[FFnut]

Just give me some examples of what you want me to make, and I'll make it. Just tell me what you want on the card and what "color" it should be, and I can fill in the holes.

The colors are:
White - Represents light and civiliation.
Red - Represents fire and recklessness.
Green - Represents nature and brute force.
Blue - Represents water and trickery.
Black - Represents darkness and decay.

For some more obvious things (i.e. Ifrit) you don't need to give me a color, just a name will be fine.

you do know that there are real magic the gathering cards with final fantasy pictures
on them

 

[FFnut]

You do know that I could not care less? I want to make FF Magic Cards. Someone else made a few already? Big deal. I can make my own, it's not like just because there are some already I'm suddenly not allowed to do it.

I'm not sure why FF cards are worth making? Can you sell them? Are they like Baseball and Football cards that have value?

 

[FFnut]

Nah, they're just for fun. You have to remember, I've got almost nothing to do in my spare time. You could print them out and put them in a card sleeve (if you play Magic: The Gathering, for instance) and use them like real cards.

Would you want to submit them here to this site? SO that users can download from here?

 

[FFnut]

Sure, no problem. I've got a good number of them already.

 

[XeroFF7]

can u show them to us i want 2 c them and how kool they look

hopefully they look kool

 

[FFnut]

I'll have to upload 'em to my site, but yeah, I'll show you a few.

 

[XeroFF7]

when and what time

 

[FFnut]

"When" and "what time" are both questions related to time and therefore are redundant... but the answer is "now."

I made the two of these after a particularly nasty playthrough of FF8.

That is the absolute coolest picture of Alexander ever. I think I may have overshot on the cost for this card - maybe I should take off a white to balance it better?

 

[XeroFF7]

foe the forest the ability it should cost 1 less green

 

[FFnut]

Three green for an unblockable eleven damage attack? You think that costs too much mana? The cards cost a two greens and six to play, I don't think a 3 green cost is going to bother the player much at all.

 

[XeroFF7]

no the other 1 the 6 and 2 green

 

[FFnut]

They have the 6 and two green because that's what each card costs. Remember, this is setting up for a two-turn victory. I can afford to make them expensive.

 

[XeroFF7]

o ya thats right but 16 mana in 2 turns i think u need some soul rings

 

[Mong00se]

Well people are putting Urza's lands (tower, PP, mine) into their decks now to help out tooth and nail, so 8 mana wont be hard.
