Thats how all of the cards are gonna be like but i was trying to make is R/B but its colorless unless you have it with the mana symbols

Skyshadow731

yea i know thats why im posting it here to alter it.

I think this needs to be an enchantment instead of a sorcery. Also there needs to be a clause to remove counters. For example "at the beginning of each players upkeep remove an Armageddon counter..."

Caininite

Change Armageddon X to Suspend X and I think you would be set.

Skyshadow731

well thats a pretty good way of typing it except there isn't gonna be a cmc. in the armageddon counters i can do the starting with you. than the ability would be like destroy all permanents and exile each players hand each player loses life equal to half the amount of permanents destroyed rounded up

I love these kinds of projects. Ill do my best to preserve your origional intent.

{R}{B}
<name> can not be countered.
Starting with you each player may pay any amount of mana and/ or life. Exile <name> with X Armageddon counters on it where X is the total amount of mana and life spent this way.

During each players upkeep remove an Armageddon counter from <name> if it is in exile. When you remove the last Armageddon counter destroy all permanents and each player discards their hand.

Balanced at rare, written to rules, and fun design.

heres the newest one with the correct text.
The "during each upkeep remove a counter" part should be in the reminder text for armageddon, not on the card itself, and the ability should read, "Each player gains life equal to the number of lands in play." Other than that, it's pretty awesome! I like the idea of armageddon

Thats not really a use for reminder text. I am liking this mechanic so far.
