My favorite use was to create a Discord bot where you could say any card title for a made-up MtG Card, and it generates the card for you, using DALL-E for the card image.
For example, here's one of my personal favorites using the input "Barney the Dinosaur":
Since the bottom text is not in cursive, you and your opponent are actually required by the rules to love eachother and eat leaves.
Italic?
Ah, yes. It's called "kursiv" in my native language, hence my mistake.
Cool fact! Thanks!
A rare intersection of RAW and RAI.
I like that for Barney the Dinosaur, it gave you a green dinosaur instead of a purple one, and its shirt says Barry instead of Barney lmao. Truly fucking nailed it.
Also, like not completely broken. 6 mv for basically 3/3s that could be wiped at any moment is pretty on par for green.
Lol I know absolutely nothing about Magic, so this is total gibberish to me. Is this card really good but not too good "broken" or really bad but not totally useless "broken"?
I would say it's a very good card, but it's also quite costly to play. I honestly wouldn't think twice if I saw a similar card in an actual game.
tapping a 6/6 to make 1/1s would feel weird AF, though
Actually, combined with its other effect, you'd be tapping it to create 3/3s with trample. Not a bad deal at all.
Edit: Oh, and vigilance. I missed that, ironically.
Holy shit I didnโt notice that
until doomblade :p
1/1 with trample ๐คฃ
I have seen more useless cards than a 1/1 token with trample. Get a +1/+1 counter farm going and that's pretty good.
3/3 as long as this card is around, but the thought of a 1/1 trample does crack me up.
Omg do u have a repou can share for that it sounds like so much fun
Unfortunately, I was lazy, and I'm webscraping a free MtG card generator to create the cards. I don't really want to put that code out into the wild and cause problems for the host of that service.
If I can find time, I'll see if I can figure out a more ethical alternative. When I do, I'll ping you!
Omg thanks I'd really appreciate that
Where can I find this bot?
See this comment.
Tl;dr, I'll let y'all know when I'm able to share the code.
Fair enough, good on you for avoiding a death hug scenario
