    Pretty good, i used to play magic seriously then school forced me to shelf the cards, pwi makes up for that. that being said i hae a few suggestions and proofs for your cards:

    -the cards for FCC and TT bosses should be far tougher. if you can kill em with cheap burn, they are not tough enough.

    -dreadindra's tokens, i think, should have their abilities read as such "...1/2 tokens with haste." then dreadindra herself would have this ability: "at the end of your turn, dreadindra deals X damage to each creature target opponent controls where X is equal to the number of bishop tokens you control."

    - true form should be and enchantment that gives a static p/t effect and 2 aggro related abilities like: "2: enchanted creature may block an additional creature this turn" and "3: when enchanted creature attacks, all creatures able to block it must do so."

    -ocean master, take out the "on your turn" part (not really needed and it limits the card's power)

    -drummer needs an AOE

    -i would give the sin the ability to gain shadow instead of the psychic. also, sin the TB have so many stuns/immobilizes/etc... i would just give them the ability to tap creatures, and/or locked them in the tapped state instead of exile. i think a tap ability that damages all creature target opponent controls would be a good "AOE" ability to give the psy.

    -messenger of fear likewise, i would just have him make target opponent skip untap phase, it's far closer in flavor to sleep.

    -evil balls (i love the name btw) why not give them the basilisk ability (any creature that blocks or is blocked by it is destroyed [immediately rather than end of combat])

    all in all i think your cards are awesome, you brought me back to days of playing in ptq's and friday night magic, and regular drafts before sanctioned play got that popular~!

    Hehe, nice :)

    Soulbanisher is way too powerful tho, 4 mana for 5/5 with a pretty insane ability, yeh, maybe for 6 mana. And drummer is way too underpowered, why would anyone use that card ^^
    The blue "tap for BB" looks too powerful for a common as well.

    some comments:

    if I made them any tougher they would not be pratical for everyday use.

    -bishops don't attack in FC unless you're right on top of them, they just constantly AOE, thus I did not see a reason to give them haste. unless I want to give the tokens defender..

    -the effect of True form was suggested by some local players.

    -explain the oceanic master comment? If it about the token I have done some other work on it, and it makes better sense now. it is a 9/9 that does no damage, just like in FC, it doe no damage unless you touch it.

    -Drummer now has an AOE effect, I should not have included it in the picture it was not yet finished

    -will fix the sin, thanks

    -It is a pain to code "half" so I went for -0/-1 instead, it's not AS devistating, but it will still cause problems to players. random is impossible right now as well.

    -Evil Balls I would have to fidure out the code for that effect, I went with a similar effect that is already coded (and I think HARDcodded)

    @frankie: Thanks. I would appciate a picture with the GM wings on a non-elf class if ya could, I have something very special in mind for that, and I'm sure you'll get a kick out of it.

    To everyone else: if you send me decient pictures with no names in the picture (meaning that the names do not appear in the image after cropping), or a means of cropping it away (such as in the UI, I don't include UI elements) I will be happy to include then in the set.

    Unless mana costs have drastically changed since I last played Magic (3-4 years ago?), WW for a 3/3 with no negative abilities is a bit OP in my opinion, especially for a common...

    Has Magic standards really changed that much over the past few years? b:shocked

    yes, they have.
    W for a 2/2 legendary (with no effect) in kamigawa block (waste of a legend, but does prove the point)

    Magic!!! OMG I used to go to Friday night draft every week for years as well as do all the series release tournaments. When MTGO came out I sold all my paper cards and things went downhill from there, what's out.. side? PWI > MTG any day though. Anyway woots to the OP, thanks for bringing back the memories.

    Oh and I always played the jankiest multi card combo decks for fun but when it came down to a 99.9% guarenteed win it was either "omg better stock up on aloe vera gel cause these nachos are gonna burn tomorrow" Red; or "there aint gonna be no christmas this year kids cause I'm on control" Blue.

    lmao. nice I lose 9/10 in real cards, but when I have access to what I need it's more like win 9/10 lol

    I need 100+ pictures, I don't even have CLOSE to that.. I could use help from the higher levels that can get to places I cannot. (and a picture of a TW crystal, the opening few moments of swarm) would be great

    - I figure that the Bishop Generating Black Creature should be based more heavily upon the Black Titan in actual MTG. Perhaps not generating them in the same way (each attack) but certainly a similar mana cost and Power/Toughness.

    - True Form strikes me as being a carbon copy of some actual Magic Card or nother, though the name eludes me at the current time.

    - Oceans Master is interesting, possibly undercosted and possibly under powered however. Though I am not certain as I have never fought that boss directly.

    - Meditation Aura could potentially be turned into an enchantment based off of the Shrine Mechanics from the Kamigawa Block. I would also price it similar to those cards as well, with a CMC of 3 being the lowest cost amongst the Shrines. 4 CMC is the cost of the White Shrine which does ALMOST the same thing as Meditation Aura.

    - I am kind of personally insulted that the card for the Seeker class is only a 1/1 for 1 mana, considering how powerful that class happens to be in the right hands.

    - Can't really see the Mystic card's name.

    - Lord of Percussion for that mana cost should have either an effect or be a 6/6.

    - Putting a universal battle cry effect on a sorcery that costs 1 mana is probably the most Over Powered thing in your custom set if you ask me. I would literally build a deck around that one card.

    - If a card can only be blocked by creatures with Shadow... wouldn't it just as easily make sense to put shadow on the card in the first place? And wouldn't Infect make more sense on a creature that can only be blocked by creatures with Shadow as well?

    - Also you got the wording wrong on Evil Balls. It should read "Whenever a creature with 4 or less power blocks this creature, exile it at the end of combat." Actually for that matter you probably got the wording wrong on a lot of them, but that was the most obvious one to me.

    Sorry I didn't mean this to be a huge rant on what would make sense or what is ideal about your cards. I just thought I would offer suggestions on how best to improve them. Otherwise I think making a Magic the Gathering Set based on Perfect World International is a hugely inspiring thing to do. I would suggest showing it on an actual Magic the Gathering Fan Site when you actually finish the set as well as some of the people on one of those sites might actually be interested in Perfect World who don't actually visit this forum as well.
