Resplendent Mage [2](U)
Creature - Human Wizard C
(W), (T): tap target creature.
2/2

Yeah fairly standard blue action with white control.

Thought Plunderer [4](U)(B)
Creature - Kithkin Rogue U
Flash
When ~ enters the battlefield, you may cast target instant or sorcery card in a graveyard without paying its mana cost. Then exile that card.
2/3

Gees, good job it costs a fair bob. How can you cast a sorcery in their turn using flash?

Violent Eruption [1](B)(B)(R)(R)
Sorcery R
~ deals 5 damage to each creature. Creatures dealt damage in this way can't be regenerated.

Hmmm I really dont no what to say about this. Trying to compare it to board wipes like chain reaction etc. Think its ok.

Lothlann Huntmaster [3](R)
Creature - Elf Scout C
When ~ enters the battlefield, put a 2/2 green Wolf creature token onto the battlefield.
2/1

A red elf that creates a green wolf? Whats going on? Kinda like it but not sure where it would see use. Cards that create more than 1 thing giving you card advantage are always nice from my perspective though.

Devout Preacher [1](G)
Creature - Viashino Druid U
If (W) was spent to cast ~, creatures you control get protection from the colour of your choice until end of turn.
2/2

Nice touch.

Yeah ok.

Slimy Horror [2](B)(G)
Creature - Ooze Horror U
Deathtouch
As an additional cost for a spell or ability an opponent controls to target ~, that opponent must pay 2 life.
3/3

Youre lightning bolts to kill this guy cost you 2 life? WIN! Nice creature.

Light of Vengeance (R)(W)
Instant U
Prevent all damage dealt to target creature or player this turn. Damage prevented in this way is dealt to another target creature or player of your choice.

Ooooof. Its like Swerve for damage. Ouch.

Collect Information [1](G)(U)
Instant C
Draw a card for each creature you control.

Bit undercosted i feel. Compare to something like souls majesty.

It's a riff off (U)(B) cards like Memory Plunder and Wrexial the Risen Deep. You can cast a sorcery out of normal timing when you use cards like that.

A red elf that creates a green wolf? Whats going on? Kinda like it but not sure where it would see use. Cards that create more than 1 thing giving you card advantage are always nice from my perspective though.
I could have said something about that. These are cards belonging to a world I created for a different purpose (a roleplaying game) where all humanoid races can be aligned pretty much to any colour (or rather, any colour's philosophy - I did not create this world with MTG in mind). Hence (B) Kithkin, (G) Viashino, (R) Elves etc.

Bit undercosted i feel. Compare to something like souls majesty.
Changed to [2](U)(G).

Now some legends:

Itachi the Old [1](W)(U)

Holy crap. Dude, hes insane, even legendary i reckon hes got cost 1 more. The white side of it is just ok, but cast a blue to draw a card?!  =P~

Eldros Night-Stalker [2](U)(B)
Legendary Creature - Vampire Assassin M
Flying, shroud
When ~ deals combat damage to a player, that player discards that many cards. If that player can't, you gain that much life.

3/2

This is what vampires needs to rule the roost; shroud. Even without his ability i like him. His ability is a bit odd though. Say i have 2 cards in my hand and he hits me for 3, i cant discard 3, so do i NOT discard them and u gain 3 life or do i discard 2 and u still gain 3 life, or 2 life??

Rassur, Victor of a Thousand Fights [3](B)(R)
Legendary Creature - Viashino Barbarian Warrior M
Deathtouch, haste
(T): ~ deals damage equal to its power to target creature. That creature deals damage equal to its power to ~.
"DEATH!"

4/4

Nice, though the lore is along the lines of Orkish Warg-master!

Caemlos, Hero in Exile [1](R)(G)
Legendary Creature - Elf Rogue Warrior M
Protection from creatures and from artifacts.
"I may be removed from my people, but I still have my wits and my pride. And none will stop me."
        - Caemlos

3/2

Meh, this guy doesnt feel legendary to be honest.

Baladil, General of Kerek-Varoz [2](G)(W)
Legendary Creature - Dwarf Soldier M
First strike, vigilance
Other green creatures you control get +1/+1 and vigilance.
Other white creatures you control get +1/+1 and first strike.
"The invaders broke before the hammers and shields of Baladil and his warriors. May their fathers and sons be blessed."
        - Chronicles of Kerek-Varoz

3/3

Whereas this guy is mental! I think hed be fine without first strike and vigilance as he is, but with them he's a massive threat. Really feels a legendary guy.

Saranis, Zealot of the Broken Sun (W)(B)
Legendary Creature - Human Cleric M
Whenever a card leaves the battlefield, you may pay [1]. If you do, target player loses 1 life and you gain 1 life.
"Through death comes life, and through life comes prayer."
        - Creed of the Broken Sun

2/2

He feels a bit too weak, a 2/2 puts him in range of everything really, disfigure, burst lightning let alone bolt and pyroclasm and due to his ability he will be dead very quickly so its never gonna get used realistically.

Luminon Steelbright [1](U)(R)
Legendary Creature - Elf Wizard M
Flash, haste
(R)(U), (T): Counter target instant or sorcery spell. If ~ counters a spell in this way, exile that spell.
You may cast instant or sorcery cards exiled by ~.
He has learned every spell known to every people in all the nations of Adorath. They were not enough.
2/2

Holy crap lol. This guy rocks. Blue and red aint easy to use but with this guy and swerve you got the basis of a deck that really f***s your opponent.

Dhurthu, Menace of the Darkwood [4](B)(G)
Legendary Creature - Dryad Horror M
Deathtouch, forestwalk, swampwalk
When a creature dealt damage by ~ is put into a graveyard this turn, put X +1/+1 counters on ~, where X is that creature's toughness.
The few travellers who have ever survived the Darkwood will tell of a shadow that stalks the trees, blacker than night and deadlier than poison.
2/6

Interesting, always hard to judge these types of cards because on turn 6 who knows what life people will have, but its always a fun gamble. I made a deck around death's shadow consuming my own life, and thats what makes magic awesome for me. This type of card where you make a mental deck and take risks for whats potentially a massive payout and heaps of fun.

On the other hand only for enchantments? Still he could be [2](W)(U) and 1/4 without difficulty.

Yeah I wasn't sure about that either. Originally it was a mill card, but then I didn't like it that much so I made it discard, then realised he would probably strip your opponent's hands too quickly for the ability to be relevant, so I added the next bit. Not sure what to do about him.

Meh, this guy doesnt feel legendary to be honest.
Really? He has two protections that hardly ever appear (I certainly don't remember ever seeing pro creatures before on any card), and his flavour I just couldn't resist. Maybe he could have some other minor ability?

He feels a bit too weak, a 2/2 puts him in range of everything really, disfigure, burst lightning let alone bolt and pyroclasm and due to his ability he will be dead very quickly so its never gonna get used realistically.
Yeah he probably is a bit weak, but there are weak mythics some time.

Nice. Horse's dont have fingers dude  :-k
Nor can you shave moonbeams. He's crazy. What's your point? ;)

Oops my bad, missed that. In that case hes not that good lol!

I just want him explaining really.

I didnt say it wasnt a cool card or good flavour, i just said thats not legendary enough for me, protection from creatures, whilst being awesome, doesnt seem enough to stop another copy being played if you get me.

I do get you. Could he have instead "Protection from permanents"? That would be fairly weird, cool and more legendary!

He could but the thing is hes only a 3/2 so being essentially immune to creatures isnt that exciting for a card you would only put 3 in a deck of max cos you can only play 1 at a time. Hes a jhessian infiltrator really!!!

Resplendent Mage [2](U)
Creature - Human Wizard C
(W), (T): tap target creature.
2/2

Nice.

Thought Plunderer [4](U)(B)
Creature - Kithkin Rogue U
Flash
When ~ enters the battlefield, you may cast target instant or sorcery card in a graveyard without paying its mana cost. If you do, exile that card.
2/3

Neat.

Violent Eruption [1](B)(B)(R)(R)
Sorcery R
~ deals 5 damage to each creature. Creatures dealt damage in this way can't be regenerated.

Name already belongs to a card. Aside from that, pretty cool, although I'm not sure it'd see play with double-red in its cost.

Lothlann Huntmaster [3](R)
Creature - Elf Scout C
When ~ enters the battlefield, put a 2/2 green Wolf creature token onto the battlefield.
2/1

I actually think this one is lame, and I'm not sure how it's a combination of colors (aside from the creatures). Was it supposed to be (G)(R) or it's supposed to be clever design? Could well be a (G) card.

Devout Preacher [1](G)
Creature - Viashino Druid U
If (W) was spent to cast ~, creatures you control get protection from the colour of your choice until end of turn.
2/2

So it WAS clever design above. Nice one.

Blessed Tutor [2](W)(B)
Sorcery U
Search your library for a card, reveal that card and put it into your hand. You gain life equal to its converted mana cost.

COOL! Or course, you realize you just made a spell that lets you gain TONS of life with the new Eldrazi, right?

Storm Elemental [3](U)(R)
Creature - Elemental U
Flying, haste
4/4

A little powerful, but ok, I think 4/3 would be better, keep it in Bolt range.

Slimy Horror [2](B)(G)
Creature - Ooze Horror U
Deathtouch
As an additional cost for a spell or ability an opponent controls to target ~, that opponent must pay 2 life.
3/3

I wouldn't help bad players, I'd make not reading the card actually punish them! Make it "Whenever a spell or ability an opponent controls target Slimy Horror, that opponent loses 2 life". If they don't read the card and point removal at it while low on life, they die. Simple.

Light of Vengeance (R)(W)
Instant U
Prevent all damage dealt to target creature or player this turn. Damage prevented in this way is dealt to another target creature or player of your choice.

Quite powerful, I think it might be too much, perhaps from a source?

Collect Information [2](G)(U)
Instant C
Draw a card for each creature you control.

Instant? Ouch. I think sorcery would be more than fine.

3/2

I think he's absurd. Just that.

Rassur, Victor of a Thousand Fights [3](B)(R)
Legendary Creature - Viashino Barbarian Warrior M
Deathtouch, haste
(T): ~ deals damage equal to its power to target creature. That creature deals damage equal to its power to ~.

4/4

Nice enough.

Caemlos, Hero in Exile [1](R)(G)
Legendary Creature - Elf Rogue Warrior M
Protection from creatures and from artifacts.
"I may be removed from my people, but I still have my wits and my pride. And none will stop me."
        - Caemlos

3/2

Way cool.

Baladil, General of Kerek-Varoz [2](G)(W)
Legendary Creature - Dwarf Soldier M
First strike, vigilance
Other green creatures you control get +1/+1 and vigilance.
Other white creatures you control get +1/+1 and first strike.
"The invaders broke before the hammers and shields of Baladil and his warriors. May their fathers and sons be blessed."
        - Chronicles of Kerek-Varoz

3/3

Neat again.

Saranis, Zealot of the Broken Sun (W)(B)
Legendary Creature - Human Cleric M
Whenever a card leaves the battlefield, you may pay [1]. If you do, target player loses 1 life and you gain 1 life.
"Through death comes life, and through life comes prayer."
        - Creed of the Broken Sun

2/2

Even YOUR cards? Ouch! I like it, though.

Luminon Steelbright [1](U)(R)
Legendary Creature - Elf Wizard M
Flash, haste
(R)(U), (T): Counter target instant or sorcery spell. If ~ counters a spell in this way, exile that spell.
You may cast instant or sorcery cards exiled by ~.
He has learned every spell known to every people in all the nations of Adorath. They were not enough.
2/2

MIGHT be too much. Not sure.

Dhurthu, Menace of the Darkwood [4](B)(G)
Legendary Creature - Dryad Horror M
Deathtouch, forestwalk, swampwalk
When a creature dealt damage by ~ is put into a graveyard this turn, put X +1/+1 counters on ~, where X is that creature's toughness.
The few travellers who have ever survived the Darkwood will tell of a shadow that stalks the trees, blacker than night and deadlier than poison.
2/6

Good.

Guardian of Light [4](R)(W)
Legendary Creature - Phoenix Avatar M
When you play ~, choose target opponent.
~'s power is equal to your life total.
~'s toughness is equal to chosen opponent's life total.
Pay 2 life: Regenerate ~.
Its light brings joy to its friends and fear to its enemies.
*/*

Groovy design.

Marrisso, Alchemist Extraordinaire (G)(U)
Legendary Creature - Dwarf Druid Wizard M
(T): Add (U) to your mana pool for each blue permanent you control, and (G) to your mana pool for each green permanent you control.
"I can make that for you! Fifty ounces of grated horse finger, nine shavings of moonbeams and a dash of pepper."
     - Marisso

0/3

Why do they all sound arabic/israeli to me? I liked this one, but he might be too abusable at 0/3, tough to kill and ramps up a lot. You open with a dude turn one (heck, a Wild Nacatl can do the trick!), you'll be ramping up to 6 mana third turn! AND blocking an eventual attack. He should have another cost, like costing you life or something. He IS legendary, though...
