Ok....
SO.
I play MtG and I've decided to build my first deck ever. I decided to make it a Knight deck because I love knights in armor and shit.
I chose a commander (Sidar Jabari of Zhalfir) but I wasn't a huge fan of the art or anything, so... I turned to proxies to make the same card but with a new name and new art.
LISTEN, DO NOT JUDGE ME. I WANTED A KNIGHT COMMANDER AND HE WAS PERFECT WITH THIS EFFECT AND COLOR SCHEME.
I am now going to justify how perfect he is for this card where I only changed the name and art.
It costs 4 mana to summon him to the field. Three Houses has 4 routes. Boom. Perfect
He is a White, Blue, and Black card. White for being a heroic savior. Blue because.... Blue Lions. And Black for his darker side. Boom. Perfect.
Legendary Creature - Human Knight... He is a human. He is a knight. And he's legendary. Boom. Perfect.
The little icon is from Teatime (the only other thing I changed for this commander actually), which come on! How perfect is that for Three Houses?
First effect - Even if he's not on the battlefield, he has an effect on the game! Just like in Houses, where his loyal knights are loyal even if he is not present. BOOM. Perfect.
Second effect - .... OK, admittedly Flying isn't exactly a Dimitri skill BUT he CAN be on a wyvern so it counts! BOOM. Mostly perfect.
Third effect - Dimitri hearing the dead from beyond the grave! He will bring the dead vengeance! BOOM! Perfect!

I really liked my Dimitri cards I made, so I decided to finish off with the other lords! I didn't spend AS much time on them, though, but I did my best with quick edits.
I had a few rules I tried to follow
Make as little edits as possible to the original cards
Try to only use legendary human cards
Try to match the skills and colors of the cards to the characters themselves
I'm not going to explain Dimitri since I already did in a different post. I'll just explain the other three.
Edelgard
Based on Marchesa, the Black Rose
Although Edelgard isn't necessarily a wizard, her affinity for magic makes this an ok match
I like the idea of her dethroning others, since she is kinda doing that by being a conqueror
Red - For her color scheme. Red in magic also tends to hurt others. A lot.
Blue - Seeks perfection. Blue in magic tends to take control of the field.
Black - Having the last word on her own life . Black in magic really likes their graveyards and dealing with life points.
Claude
Based on Rem Karolus, Stalwart Slayer
This is the only one of the four where I changed the creature type. The OG card was Human Knight. But Claude isn't really a knight, and I felt that this card (of the cards I researched and could find), was the closest to being something that matched him. So I changed it from Knight to Advisor, for being known as a tactician.
I called him Scheming Scion because a) alliteration and b) he is called both these things officially in his cipher cards
Flying because.... yeah, he's the flyer of the group. Haste - With being the man who is supposed to be two steps ahead, it only makes sense that he would be able to attack the moment he comes on the battlefield.
I think the skills work fine. Being a tactician, he would find a way to hurt others more, and prevent damage to his own side (works really well with Hopes too, tbh, since that is kinda what he aims to do).
Being the weakest of the lords (technically, by physical strength), I think him being a 2 versus the 3/4s of the others works fine.
Red - Adventurous and looks upon the world.
White - The closest to yellow for his color scheme.
Yuri
Based on Ramses, Assassin Lord
Devastating Beauty - Not only is he devastatingly beautiful, but he's also devastating as in dangerous.
Deathtouch makes sense for him imo, since he is an assassin-type character
I like the idea that he has an alternative win condition. It just fits his character imo. "If myself or another assassin under my command kills you, I win."
There isn't really a purple color, so I went with blue and black as close proximates.
Blue - Trickery, manipulation, and control.
Black - He's an assassin so... you know. Death.
He's a little bit stronger than I would like but the card was that strong so... here we are.
