Should be tap and sac, or else that's more or less a Black Lotus right there. If it's tap and sac, it's probably fine.

The Darksteel Hilux should be an equipment with rules:

~ is indestructible.

Equipped creature is indestructible and becomes 3/3 (possibly 4/4).

At the beginning of your upkeep, pay 2. If you don't, equipped creature can't attack or block until the beginning of your next upkeep.

Equip 2

^^ I don't get what's so "Huh?" about it. It's Green going "Weapons suck. Fight with what you were born with, fuckwit."

^ Immortal Coil is already a card. Also, is Embalm an instant or sorcery, and is it supposed to last forever? If it is, you should probably either make it an enchantment or have it kill the creature and make a token. Also, in Magic creature type land, mummy is a type of Zombie.

And something can't be indestructible yet have no abilities.

  1. Damn. And I was so proud of coming up with that name too. >_> Was trying to think of a way I could make a double-faced instant work but realized "wait, it would be way easier and less confusing to just give it a kicker instead."
  2. Sorry, was supposed to be an Aura. Was going for a Lignify type thing with a more Innistradian flavour.

^^ Actually, something can be indestructible and have no abilities, as long as the indestructibility is granted by something external to the permanent itself.

EDIT: The wording on that version of Embalm needs to be:

Enchant Human creature
As Embalm enters the battlefield, it loses Enchant Human creature and gains Enchant Zombie creature.
Enchanted creature is a 1/1 indestructible Zombie with no abilities.

It becomes much nicer if you let it target Zombies again, so it has "Enchant Human or Zombie creature" and loses the second line.

EDIT2: Another card:

Still as Statues 1U
Instant
Target creature becomes an artifact until end of turn. (It's no longer a creature.)
Draw a card.

@Tropers.Glidergun: Well, wouldn't "fight with what you were born with" be more like "Creatures' power and toughness are both equal to 1" or something like that, rather than -2/-2, which can actually kill stuff itself?

Or something like "Auras and Equipment cannot raise the power or toughness of creatures they are attached to."

I think I like "Unattach all auras and equipment." better. It's simpler and doesn't give green a black ability.

Nah, I have a better idea:

Hogging the RAM 2UU

Enchant Player

If enchanted player controls more than 6 lands, then all creatures that player controls have last strike.

(Last strike works as you might guess, the opposite of first strike, guaranteed to deal damage last.)

It's worse than Mind Rot, so there's no reason for it to be a three mana sorcery. If you made it an instant and let it target any player, you could get more interesting results. Even then, I think pricing it at two mana would be fine.

It was either a stereotypical idiot troper or an unsubtle parody of one. It was laden with insults of Fast Eddie and "You can't ban me" claims.

Was going through the Index of Gothic Horror Tropes, wondering what else might show up in Innistrad, and I got inspired.

Alluring Stranger 2R
Creature - Vampire Rogue
3RR, T: Gain control of target creature until end of turn. Untap that creature. It gains haste until end of turn.
2/2
