Spoiler for Gravity Temple | Gravity Clocktower:

NAME: Gravity Temple ELEMENT: Gravity COST: 3 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: : Stall Sacrifice a Gravity Pillar to delay opponent's creatures for one turn.	NAME: Gravity Clocktower ELEMENT: Gravity COST: 1 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: 0 : Stall Sacrifice a Gravity Pendulum to delay opponent's creatures for one turn.

ART: IDEA: CleanOnion NOTES: Many pillars make a temple. Many pendulums make a clocktower. Deck archetype: Monogravity Stall Spoiler for Hidden: Hover over cards for details, click for permalink Deck import code : [Select] 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 55k 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 576 744 744 744 744 75m 75m 75m 8pl Problem: Not enough stalling. Solution: More stalling. Works best with Mark of Gravity. SERIES: New Year's Resolutions

Spoiler for Scapegoat | Scapegoat:

NAME: Scapegoat ELEMENT: Entropy COST: 3 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 2 | 6 TEXT: Whenever one of your creatures is targetted, Scapegoat is targetted instead.	NAME: Scapegoat ELEMENT: Entropy COST: 3 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 3 | 8 TEXT: Whenever one of your creatures is targetted, Scapegoat is targetted instead.

ART: none IDEA: andretimpa NOTES: Technical stuff: The targetting is redirected even if scapegoat is immortal (it requires you to have a non-immortal creature to be targetted though). The ability is passive. Doesn't affect AoE. If multiple scapegoats are in play, targetting is redirected to the one that acts first (that is, the one that is earlier in the attack order). It affects you targetting your own creatures. Competition stuff: This card is intended to be used in rushes to make them more resilient against CC, which is one of the main weaknesses of this archetype. The cost and drawbacks of the ability makes it specially suited to PSNbows that don't rely on buffing its own creatures. SERIES: competitions

Spoiler for Sacrificial Slab | Sacrificial Altar:

NAME: Sacrificial Slab ELEMENT: Darkness COST: 3 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: N/A TEXT: Each turn lose 3 HP in exchange for .  Click to remove.	NAME: Sacrificial Altar ELEMENT: Darkness COST: 4 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: N/A TEXT: Each turn lose 4 HP in exchange for . Click to remove.

ART: N/A IDEA: Silver Emerald NOTES: For quite some time, the bane of my monodark experience were those decks which either could generate quanta faster than I could remove it (rainbows and the like) or didn't need much quanta to get by (especially poison-reliant decks). In either case, my opponent just seemed to be a little faster because my highly damaging cards were cost-prohibitive. As such, this card aims to provide a tactical decision while supplementing other methods of quanta generation - it comes at a cost, in keeping with the different vampiric abilities and cards also in Darkness. Just in case you don't want to completely kill yourself for quanta, it (like the Shard of Patience) is removable; but take it down too early and you won't even recoup the quanta you spent. SERIES: N/A

Spoiler for Inspiration | Abstraction:

NAME: Inspiration ELEMENT: Entropy COST: 15 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: remove all but your quanta. Reshuffle your hand and draw 4 cards.	NAME: Abstraction ELEMENT: Entropy COST: 20 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: Transform your hand into random cards. Draw 3 cards.

ART: Free and DDEVANS96 IDEA: Tereret NOTES: Made for the New Year's Resolutions: SoSe bows, that's the why for being elementless. A bow would have no problem on getting 20 quanta (only 7 turns for a pillar) and it allows retrying the cards you disliked SERIES: New year's

Spoiler for Tungsten Saboteur | Rhenium Saboteur:

NAME: Tungsten Saboteur ELEMENT: Earth COST: 7 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 6 | 7 TEXT: Burrowed creatures have momentum.	NAME: Rhenium Saboteur ELEMENT: Earth COST: 7 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 7 | 8 TEXT: Burrowed creatures have momentum.

ART: Removed. It was placeholder-only anyway (by Mikkel-Mulr @ deviantart.com). IDEA: UndeadSpider1990 NOTES: Here's a riddle for you: what's blue and wavy and ruins everybody's day? Spoiler for answer: Phase Shield!! Presented as the Shrieker's answer to pesky shields—plus fancy metal names to keep it Earthy. The ability is called Undermine and is active, meaning it can be lobotomized. It affects all burrowed creatures, including the opponent's, and will remove momentum again if those creatures unburrow or if all Saboteurs are lobotomized or leave play. SERIES:

Spoiler for Reconstitution | Reconstitution:

NAME: Reconstitution ELEMENT: Darkness COST: 3 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Whenever you discard a card, put it on the bottom of your deck and drain 5 HP from your opponent.	NAME: Reconstitution ELEMENT: Darkness COST: 2 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Whenever you discard a card, put it on the bottom of your deck and drain 5 HP from your opponent.

ART: IDEA: russianspy1234 NOTES: The archetype I chose to boost is Inistosis, specifically the one that uses Shard of Bravery as a draw engine.  One problem with that deck is that is that if you draw your combo too early, and are unable to play it, you might end up needing to discard cards.  There is also the issue, especially in arena, where you might end up facing a deck that the combo doesn't have enough muscle to defeat.  This card adds some surviveability and allows the deck to grind a bit while you stall, as well as making you not need to rely on the single card in your deck that can deal damage and losing to a 1 HP deck. SERIES:

Spoiler for Scribe | Scribe:

NAME: Scribe ELEMENT: Time COST: 4 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 4 | 1 TEXT: Your Quanta Pool can not be altered during your opponent's turn. Immaterial	NAME: Scribe ELEMENT: Time COST: 3 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 4 | 1 TEXT: Your Quanta Pool can not be altered during your opponent's turn. Immaterial

ART: Found it here http://www.historymuseum.ca/cmc/exhibitions/civil/egypt/egcw05e.shtml IDEA: Manuel NOTES: This card should help against one of the most used deck type in platinum: swallow with Black Hole or swallow with discord. Since black hole is useless with this card in play and is immaterial, so it can not be swallowed. At the first sight u can even think that this card can help u against mono , but vampire pretty much outdamage u and they can heal back every dealt damage. It can help in deck like ghost/nightmare or silence is golden. SERIES:

Call me a noob but, is voting on your own submission uncool?

This is something people have to decide for themselves.
Some (a minority imo) people think it isn't right.

Personally, if you don't believe in your own submission enough to vote for it, who else will? I'm fairly sure that in a general election, the leader of the republicans uses his/her vote to vote republican. The same should apply here. If everyone votes for themselves, everyone sits at one vote, and the neutral votes decide it. This is preferable in my opinion.

Inspiration/abstraction isn't loading for me, same for scribe

They didn't removed the card art in time, so it's intentional (better than disqualifying them).

[JonathanCrazyJ]

You can still read in their notes what they do and how they cost, so may vote for them on their design merit if you so choose

Good I think it should be OK, purely as there'd be no real way to police it anyway (In this forum, at least )
