Doctor Roon, Judoon Time Lord
A Doctor Who themed Roon flicker deck. Every card was chosen to represent a character or item from the show.
Each card has an explanation as to what it represents next to it. If I end up making inserts for the deck, the taglines in the parentheses are what I plan on putting on them.

Alterboard
Cards that have effects are either really powerful or match really well with something from the show, but whose art is all wrong. If I start altering the deck these will be the first.
-
Genesis Ark - Rite of Replication
-
Fez - Jester’s Cap
-
Sarah Jane Smith - Seedborn Muse
-
K-9 - Solemn Simalacrum
-
Star Whale - Sky Swallower
-
Vortex Manipulator - Flickerform
-
Weeping Angel - Flickerwisp
-
Cybermen - Phyrexian Metamorph
-
Matt Smith - Magus of the Disk
-
The Silence - Geralf’s Mindcrusher
Cuts
Cards I had to cut or stuff from the show that I found a better match for.
-
Albert Einstein - Presence of the Master, might need to make a cut for this.
-
Perception Filter - Swiftfoot Boots got beat out by the Cloak.
-
Dalek - Hoverguard Sweepers don’t quite look right.
-
Rose Tyler - Karmic Guide is good but Sylvan Ranger is better.
-
Amy Pond - Fathom Mage, Archangel of Thune, Angel of Finality were all good choices but Crusader of Odric won out over them.
-
River Song - Archangel of Strife didn’t quite win out over Kithkin Harbinger.
-
Face of Bo - Godhead of Awe, though its name fits, didn’t look the part like Yavimaya Elder did.
-
Jammie Dodger - Mark of Asylum looks closer but Nevin’s Disk has a better effect. As a bonus, Magus of the Disk gains more meaning if I want to slot it in some day.
-
Jabe of the Forest of Cheem - Lignify has the effect and Ambassador Oak has the name, but Carven Caryatid has the figure.
-
Vashta Nerada - Repel the Darkness looked right but Ghastly Haunting is more potent.
-
Weeping Angel - Blinding Angel has too much movement to be a statue. Angel of Serenity is more powerful in the deck and Angel of Flight Alabaster has the right art, but Sunblast Angel is more thematic.
-
Martha Jones - Cathedral Sanctifier fit better since Martha is a nurse, but the effect was too weak compared to Oak Street Innkeeper.
-
The Silence - Silent-Chant Zubera's effect was too weak, so I’m waiting until I can alter Geralf’s Mindcrusher.
-
Wibbley Wobbley, Timey Wimey - Cast Through Time didn’t have enough stuff to use it with.
-
Silurian - Sakashima’s Student was too much $$$ for not enough benefit.
-
The Moment - Austere Command and Scourglass were the best I could come up with and I needed to cut one more card.
-
River’s Lipstick - Acidic Slime is too much of a stretch
-
Blue Diary - My First Tome got beat out by Thran Tome.
-
Clara Oswald - Prophet of Kruphix got banned
