what should I do?

Post by dry_cereal » Thu Dec 16, 2004 7:15 am

I've been sitting on this card for a while.  I'm making a set of dry cereal cards.  So far there are:

the pantry
mox crispie
fiber inspiration
chex and balances
and apocalyptic spoonful

I don't know what I should have apocalyptic spoonful do.  Any ideas?

You should have at least one for each color, plus a land, and artifact, and a multicolor.  At this point you have:

the pantry - green, I guess, or maybe a land ???
mox crispie - artifact
fiber inspiration - sounds pretty black to me  :o
chex and balances - white wonder

figure out its color, and maybe that will help

the pantry is a legendary cabinet
mox crispie is an artifact breakfast
fiber inspiration is an interrupt
and chex and balances is a sorcery

Couple of bowls of bran flakes and some prunes.
Now that's an apocalypse waiting to happen. ;D

How about:

You may play crimped cards without paying their mana cost.
or
Image: Put a crimped card from your hand into play.

(alternativ card name: Collectors Squeezer or Dry's Pliers)

Sorry, played to much Unhinged  ;)

SUPER Colon Blow!
Man, I tried to find a screenshot, but I failed :(

Apocalyptic Spoonful:

X, Tap: Destroy X cereal tokens.

Seems simply enough right?

Whenever a Cereal comes into play, you may have it deal 1000 damage to target creature.

Now of course, Apocalyptic spoonful doesn't sound much like an enchantment that would happen every time you have a new cereal.  Hmm, this will require some thought.

Apocalyptic Spoonful
Enchant Cereal
When a Milk comes into play, remove from the game all permanents other than that Milk and enchanted Cereal.
Snap, Crackle, KABOOM!!!

ANALOG_KID's flavor text is perfect for that idea.  The concept, of course, being that the milk detonates the cereal.  Though I'm not quite sure why the cereal would survive.

Here's an idea:

(Picture sort of like autumn willow - maybe more imaginative or risque)

Mothers Milk:

Instant - Immediately eliminates ALL cereal effects.  Cannot be countered except by the effects of expensive jewelery.

Mothers Milk makes even the driest cereal soggy!
