Im tring to put together a format called world fire and basically world fire starts with doomsday counters and when the counters reach 0 world fire goes off. But I need help with officially making it really good like having a way to add counters by doing certain things and can remove some by doing wrong things

Would it be like if you lose a life you lose a counter instead? Or Izzet more like legit counters that you can add with like Proliferate ex.  {Contagion Clasp}

What it is. Is that world fire goes in the middle of the game and sarts with say 10 counters at the beginning of each  upkeep it loses a counter. When there are no counters world fire is casted with paying its mana cost. But if you plus a planes walker take away a counter but if you take away a +1/+1 counter add a time counter on to world fire.

That sounds fun but there needs to be a way that not just red decks win. Like dont have things that you can just topdeck and win like  {Legion Loyalist},  {Shock}, etc.

Other than that idk how to help sorry

They have to top deck a land than a red burn spell and I could say only 4 colors. All but red

Alot of fair points raised here.  Big problem is the "red deck wins" scenario.  Worldfire is literally meant for late game burn deck to pretty much auto win.  Yes all colors have something you can drop for 1 cost but not near as much as red.  Cool idea man, but just seems a little too one sided.

Mattao19

True but still I'd say stay away from 1 drops or even those pesky  {Dryad Arbor} and  {Memnite} etc.

Also you can make it random like through in a  {Goblin Test Pilot} for fun lol

Suspend 10. It can be treated a such for the format. You could look a lot at the future sight era cards and recommend those as staples for the format. This could be done with lots of chaos spells. {Warp world} comes to mind. The game because a race to amass components. You could even expand on it by having a plane chase style format that suspends randomly revealed crazy mass spells from an independent deck like the planes in planechase. I would recommend adding a planechase style die rolling rule where you can pay mana or use a turn based free roll to affect the counters on the spell. Just ideas, I wont constrain your creativity. Ill check back to see how this turns out.

I really like that idea how bout it be called Armageddon. But yea I think I'll make it like planechase deck cause than that's a little more fair.

Can anybody name any other cards like warp world and world fire.

Worldfire is Intangible.

Worldfire enters the battlefeild with twelve wrath counters on it.

Whenever a player casts a red spell,put a wrath counter on Worldfire.

Whenever a player casts a non-red spell,remove a wrath counter from Worldfire.

When Worldfir has no wrath counters on it,all players exile all permanents, all cards in their hands and graveyards.Each players  life total is reduced to 1.


*Intangible - This permanent cannot be countered or be affected by spells and abilities

This Is A good idea! To make it a little more fun, I think there must be 5 players- 1 mono red, 1izzet, 1 gruul, 1 Boros, and 1 Rakdos player! That would cause havoc... And all 2-colour need 12 of each of their lands and 18 cards of their colours....
