I've still been making cards, I just haven't bothered to post all of them here (some of the last few have been more serious cards that would seem rather dull to non-Magic players.) Nevertheless, here's a cycle I thought TI would enjoy, with bonus flavor guides!
Generally, the first ability represents early onset, and the sacrifice ability is an acute attack.
This was the first one I made. Yes, the ability is off-color for blue; that's why its has the toughest mana requirements. This one also set the flavor for snow enchantments. It has snow in its mana cost because patients with diabetes insipidus crave cold drinks, and as for the rules text... well, they're not very good at retaining that water
wink .
Thyroid storms come in two varieties: acute and... very acute. The two abilities on the card are all about firing s**t everywhere and seeing where it hits.
Acromegaly is an overproduction of human growth hormone, usually caused by a pituitary tumor. Our abilities represent a growing and a full-grown tumor. As you can see, the result is a beefier player.
Pseudogout is caused by urate crystal building up in joints, causing pain (sort of like arthritis.) Here we can target specific joints (creatures) or have a severe attack.
Pernicious anemia is caused by the immune system attacking the body's normal cells in the digestive tract (hence the provoke ability--provoke forces the opponent's creatures to block.) The result is giant blood cells (a.k.a. giant creatures.)
Cut from the list: bubonic plague, anasarca, presbyopia, myelomenigocoele. Maybe I'll work one or two of these into multicolor cards at some point.
