There is a popular discord (PlayEDH) where people play MTG over webcam against one another. Due to the nature of MTG it's important that the deck each player is wielding be properly balanced in power level against each opponent. (For those unfamiliar, it's possible to construct highly efficient, and expensive, MTG decks that trigger game-winning infinite combos within 1-4 turns. There's a continuous scale of deck eff…

You been to FNM too? /s

The cool thing about this project is that, from what I could generate, these could be legitimate cards. 2/2 blue flying. 3/4 zombie. 2/6 red giant. This is actually really cool. I’d love to see an AI generated green red aggro deck from this just to see how it would play.

This is really cool! I noticed a few things you might be interested in: It looks like there might be issues rendering mana costs that have, e.g., 1GG where it does not render the second G. That is to say, it's rendered but only the barest left edge can be seen. This appears to only be the case if the card's name is sufficiently long (I noticed this with "Bethen, Cenn's Heavenly Sleep"). That being said, I have no ide…

I'm having too much fun with this. I just generated Pyromancer's Purge[0] (it doesn't do anything and I can't stop giggling to myself; I want more of these that seemingly do something but then actually just nothing): 1R Instant This spell costs 1 less to cast if you control a creature with power 4 or greater. Scavenge 1R (1R, Exile this card from your graveyard: Put a number of +1 / +1 counters equal to this card's p…

The flavor text really makes the card. "It scavenges with a tide of deceit" makes it feel as if the AI knew the card did nothing when scavenging.

Illustrations are impressive, but text seems very fragile. I generated in sequence from names:

  Ice Lake 
  Land - Islanders
  T: add U or R

  Tiger Lake
  Land
  Tiger Lake enters the battlefield tapped
  T: add U or R

  Alder Lake
  Land
  Alder Lake enters the battlefield tapped
  T: add U or R 

  Cannon Lake
  Land
  Cannon Lake enters the battlefield tapped
  T: U or R 
"Rocket Lake" is completely wrong:

  1R 
  Two-Headed Dead 
  Instant
  Rocket Lake deals 1 damage to target creature

  Comet Lake
  Land 
  T: add 1
  1,T, sacrifice Comet Lake: search your library for a basic land card, put it onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle 

  Coffee Lake
  Land
  T: add 1
  T: add U or R 
Whiskey Lake is drunk:

  Whiskey Lake
  Land
  T: add 1
  1,T: add U, U, U or U, U, or U, U, or U,or U,or U,or U,or U,or U,or U, [truncated]

4G "Put +1/+1 counter on creature" sorcery. Each part is plausible, but the combination unappealing :)

There was a very popular Twitter account that was tweeting out a similar concept (starting way back in 2015, even!) https://twitter.com/RoboRosewater LoadingReadyRun, a very popular MTG YouTube channel, even did a cube draft using only cards that were generated by RoboRosewater that I thought was funny to watch https://youtu.be/UuG5YLbwsQk

There's one for Netrunner as well: https://twitter.com/roborunnercards
