Soulselling
Instant
:X:


As an additional cost to play Soulselling, pay X life.
Soulselling is black.
Draw a card for each life you paid when you played Soulselling unless any player pays 1 life, then discard X cards. You lose 1 life for each card discarded this way.

"Some people will bleed thier souls dry just to get a step ahead."

made it like this because if countered , u only lose the life u paid, if goes through, you will lose another amount of whatever u paid, and u gotta discard,.. and made the life pay instead of mana , so anybody can usee anytime

Sorry, this is busted.

1) What if they aren't playing white?

2) Even if they are, this is an instant, so it can be played at EOT after they tap out.

3) This doesn't even require you to play black mana. It would be a 4 of in every single deck (this normally is a dead give away for total brokeness)!

if this card read CC: 3, instant, pay 3 life draw three cards unless a players pays :w:, it would still be broken.... and this can scale *up* in power from there!

Anything like this:

Soulselling :X::b:
Instant

As an addition to play Soulselling, pay X life.

For each life you payed, draw a card unless any player pays :w:


As said, über broken, even when I added the :b: in it's CC

still very broken.

Try something along these lines:

Soulselling :X::b:

As an additional cost to play ~, pay X life

Draw X cards, and you lose X life.

Any player may discard 2 cards from his or her hand. If a player does, counter ~.

i know that you didnt have the counter clause but it makes it less confusing and "less" broken... its still broken i think... well not really. i may have balanced it out idk.

You have to make instants have a mana symbol. Look at all of the suggestions that everyone gave you. All of them have a mana symbol in them.

I want you to go though all the 0 mana cost cards, except Kobolds. Then tell me if any mono color deck can play them. Tell me if any old mono green deck can play Slaughter Pact. Don't give me any Platinum Angel bull****. Tell me if any old mono black deck can play Evermind. Or if any old mono red deck can play Restore Balance. That's pretty much why this is a no-no.
