Continuing our coverage of the Micro-Set project from last week’s episode! See the bottom of this post for all the details.
Arms and the magic we sing of fate
And Voc-Gal’s micro-set Battle rate.
Meanwhile the well-built set speedily came to the isle of the two Sirens, for a fair and gentle wind bore her on. Then presently the wind ceased and there was a windless calm, and a god lulled the waves to sleep.

IgnitedxSoul’s original pitch for the Micro-set:
A Micro-set is 45 Unique Cards with cohesive flavor and mechanics that obeys the following guidelines:
Rarity Counts:
6 Rares (or Mythics)
12 Uncommons
27 Commons
Restrictions:
All Rarities:
-No Lands
Rares (or mythics) / Uncommons:
-No two cards of the same rarity share a color identity
-At least 9 creatures
Commons:
-4 of each Mono-Color
-3 Colorless
-4 Wild Cards (All with unique color identity from eachother)
-At least 12 creatures
NOTE: A micro-set should feel like a distilled version of a standard set as much as possible. Minimize the number of non-evergreen/deciduous mechanics and have an overarching theme for the set.
