It's new years eve once again, and I need to somehow top last year, so...

You're more amazing than Wartortle

Oh shit! 😲😲😲 He went there!🤯 But remember that trying to keep going bigger and bigger isn't sustainable long-term ☢️ Endless growth is the philosophy of the cancer cell 🤮

Anyway let's throw a party! King!

Party King

Once upon a time, a mighty dragon in a castle filled with a great hoard of treasure was slain by a mysterious knight, and that knight claimed the castle as his own and became a king. He used the wealth of the hoard to throw extravagant parties, hiring wizards and artificers to create enchantments and magic items to make the parties truly legendary. Over the centuries, the crown of the Party King was passed down, and even today the castle's epic parties continue.

But the secret behind the story is that the dragon was never slain at all. The dragon, having grown bored of collecting riches and interested in human culture, donned a magic crown from his hoard that allows the wearer to shapeshift. He spun the tale of his defeat, and threw his first party, a celebration of his death (and of his new life). The dragon-turned-king is happy with his new life, but secretly wishes that he could enjoy the parties in his true form…

The king's festivities are motivated by pure hedonism, but magic researchers find much to enjoy about them. The king is willing to spend heaps of gold on enchantments and magical items, giving wizards more funding than they could ever hope to find anywhere else. The resulting works are intended for entertainment, but one man's firework is another man's rocket ship, and so the Party King incidentally funds great leaps forward in magical knowledge and research.

I also made this card, inspired by Sorrow's Path

#idk whether this is balanced because it's Really Weird #sorrow's path is an interesting card because you're reading it and you're like “oh okay this seems interesting and maybe even overpowered-”#“oh it wipes your board whenever you use it. never mind.”#but this one costs mana to use so it's different #and then the control changing ability i think is fine because it costs a total of 5 mana and for that price you could just Invoke the Winds #normally “gain control” spells cost 7 mana like Lay Claim but this one is both conditional and has a downside so it's fine #also “exchange their blockers” is totally made up wording but i hope it gets the point across #it's not in the comprehensive rules but nothing in the section on the word “exchange” contradicts it so it's probably fine #ALSO the control changing ability originally costed 5 mana but didn't sacrifice the carousel and um. yeah that's probably a bad idea #some things should Not be repeatable #oh hey i'm getting to show of the “one man's firework is another man's rocket ship” line!#i was trying to find a way to explain how the Party Enchantments contribute to magic-science progress #so i tried to think of examples of that in real life and fireworks popped into my head and :O that's perfect!#ka asks
