6th Trials - Proving Your Worthiness

"Build a deck that can make creative use of a shard, no elements restriction."

Does this mean that if our deck uses one type of Shard we're forbidden from using another type in the same deck?

No.

You can use up to 12 different types of shard.

By "The art has to be original", does that mean that the trial participant must create the art himself?

Quoted for importance.

[Annele]

what's the ruling on using QPs/QTs?

You can use them, just try to not build the deck around them.

For task 3, is it okay if we change a card in the crucible somewhat but still keep to it thematically?

If the change isn't really big (e.g. +1 cost), yes. If the change is +3 cost, +4 attack, +5 defense no.

Can we change ability quanta?

Well... it's better.

Can we change ability quanta?

Yes. Maybe. See if it isn't too big of a change.

Well... it's better.

Is it mandatory that art has to be self-made, though, or will just using the original version of any art piece still qualify?

Any art will qualify. But self-made art will likely score more points.

For Task I, can we change the type of the reworked card?  For instance, can we change a permanent to a spell, keeping its ability similar?

Also, can we use shards for the trio portion of our deckbuilding task?

You can use shards as long as they aren't the focus of the deck, merely an aid.

Everything completed (or marked as such) should have been checked and things.
If there is something that isn't either marked nor here, and it is completed, give me a punch through Chat or PM.

Except some submissions:

- n00b's Task I (I still don't understand what does the 2nd card do. Transmission? Chaos Seed?)
- mrpaper's Task I (Lack of Lore).
- Zblader's Tasks (Please choose 2.)
- UTALan's Tasks III (There are a lot of new features under balance. Is that intended?)
- Plastiqe's... that thing. (Is that a submission?)

[ddevans96]

Any reason I didn't get any points for Task III?
