Legendary packing Penguin

« on: August 04, 2005, 03:38:02 pm »

So, I figure we can get away with making penguins the stars of the pack mechanic, and with that in mind, I decided to make another packing penguin:

Boki Boki, Emperor Penguin
2GG
Legendary Creature- Penguin
Pack 3- All Penguins get +1/+1
Pack 4-All Penguins gain "T: Target creature is blue until end of turn"
Pack 5- T: Destroy target blue creature
2/2

People are probably going to complain about a green card changing colors, but penguins have to have something to do with the color blue, and since blue and green are enemies, I think this is an acceptable use of the color change ability. Anyway, does anyone like it?

Boki Boki, Emperor Penguin
2GG
Legendary Creature- Penguin
Pack 3- All Penguins get +1/+1
Pack 4-All Penguins gain "T: Target creature is blue until end of turn"
Pack 5- T: Destroy target blue creature
2/2

Why are penguins green? They'd seen to be blue at least to me.

I created my penguin in green because I wanted Penguin to be a flavour type with Beast being the dominant creature type. The abilities I wanted to give it belonged in green, as well. I don't think that penguins necessarily have to have anything to do with blue. They're aquatic and they live in cold environments, but [card]Bull Hippo[/card]s are aquatic and [card]War Mammoth[/card]s live in cold environments. That said, I don't want to heavily emphasize penguins as a creature type. As I've said before, penguins are intrinsically funny, so if we create too many penguin cards (as this card suggests we should), they cease to be serious cards.

Did you know that Red is the color or art and music and passion? Combine that with Green, the color of nature, spiritualism, and community and you get a hippie commune of drum circles, dreamcatchers, and recreational drug use. Let's see that win a Pro Tour.

Also, this is another pack card with three instances of the ability. We really need to be making cards with one instance of pack, not three.

The word "penguin" is intrinsically funny. Great Auk gets by the "serious censors" by not actually having Penguin in the name.

Comments heard. I guess I'll let this one hit the dust if no one feels its interesting enough to keep going.
