You're the most amazing
creature!
I also filled the other 5 color pairs with various frogs
#asks#custom cards#gosh i love signpost sets#they let me make cool mechanics and build-arounds for those mechanics#couldn't come up with a good name for the raccoon mechanic fast enough so i just called it recycle#that's another neat part: since it's just one card i don't have to make the mechanic perfect#if i ever decide to flesh out these cards i can give it a proper name#because “recycle” just doesn't feel mischievous enough#doesn't properly communicate the feel of rummaging around in someone's garbage#“rummage” is already a slang term for discard-then-draw#“scavenge” is a golgari mechanic#all the good words are already taken :(#anyway for the frogs i was trying to make them tie together tools from the first 5 color pairs#like Sac Frog wants either high power-to-toughness ratio from micro insects#or high toughness-to-power ratio from the patience turtles#and i also wanted to have a pinch of frog synergy on all of them#the result is some awkward cards#there isn't much synergy between the color pairs#that's something to watch out for#like in Guilds of Ravnica they gave dimir surveil which synergizes with golgari undergrowth and izzet jump start#smart overlaps like that are really cool#and in New Capenna they had ally color pairs that used tools from two overlapping 3-color factions#like black-red sacrifice#now i wanna make a signpost set with that kind of design
