Some more Faeries would be nice.
Mistbind Clique
Spellstutter Sprite
Oona, Queen of the Fae
Glen Elendra Archmage
Now that we have Esper Charm, I imagine that the rest of that cycle is doable. The rest of the command cycle from Lorwyn block would be nice too. Cryptic Command is the main one I'd like to see, but the others would be nice too.
Other cards I'd like to see:
Tidehollow Sculler (should be doable seeing as we have a couple other cards similar to Oblivion Ring)
Preordain
Forsee
Teferi, Mage of Zhalfir
Roil Elemental
Rift Elemental
Flame Wave
Cloudgoat Ranger
Merrow Reejerey
Silvergill Adept
Cursecatcher
Enclave Cryptologist
Lullmage Mentor (Might be a little too difficult)
Merrow Commerce
Sygg, River Cutthroat
Guul Draz Assassin
I think I'm going to start teaching myself Java so I can actually be helpful and contribute, rather than post these lists of blue cards with complicated rules texts.

My first serious attempt to add a card:
Name:Captivating Vampire
ManaCost:1 B B
Types:Creature Vampire
Text:no text
PT:2/2
K:stPumpAll:Creature.Vampire+Other+YouCtrl:1/1:No Condition:Other Vampire creatures you control get +1/+1.
A:AB$GainControl|Cost$tapXType<5/Vampire>|TgtPrompt$Select target creature.| GainControl$ True|ValidTgts$ Creature|SpellDescription$Gain control of target creature. It becomes a Vampire in addition to its other types.
SVar:RemAIDeck:True
SVar:Rarity:Rare
SVar:Picture:http://www.wizards.com/global/images/magic/general/captivating_vampire.jpg
SetInfo:ONS|Rare|http://magiccards.info/scans/en/m11/87.jpg
End
The only thing I didn't know how to do was make the creature a vampire in addition to its other types. I believe the best card to look to for inspiration on the final ability is Ashnod's Transmogrant, which I've done, but that's as far as I've gotten. Expert help would be appreciated.

SoulStorm,
We probably need an "AssignType" Ability Factory for Captivating Vampire (and to convert Transmogrant from a codeblock to an AF). There are a bunch of cards that either grant an additional type, or override the type a card has. I'll put this on the growing list of future AbilityFactories.

Another one to consider in the future would be an AF that would either add a color to a card or change the color of a card. Granted, while it is nice to have goals we still have some work ahead of us to finish the parts that we have started.

Glad I could help in the process of giving you one more thing to do.friarsol wrote:SoulStorm,

I agree. Especially, for those of us who have gaps in their card knowledge from not playing the game since X expansion, or only started in Y expansion. I keep looking at some of my old favorites.SoulStorm wrote:Glad I could help in the process of giving you one more thing to do.I think my biggest challenge is going to be identifying cards that can be added using only card text. Sometimes it's difficult to tell if something can't be done or if I just haven't figured out how to do it yet.
If you have the source, there's a PerSetTracking.py python script that can be run to see whats missing in each set. When I feel like adding cards I run that, choose a random set, and see which of the cards seem like they have an ability that has been done already.

Is it possible to add Vedalken Shackles and the other free stuff from Alliances (Contagion, Bounty of the Hunt)?
