I posted but using a word count since I can't use MSE I'm using a word could online and I have too many characters with and without spaces so will be continuing to edit it until times up. Thank you @bravelion83 for earlier giving me an idea of character count to strive for.

No problem! Happy to help!

Well dang, I posted so late and didn't give myself enough time to revise, and I forgot the plot keyword! My entry was meant to have "Plot - RRR, Sacrifice three artifacts." Oh well, didn't think I'd get this far anyway, and next month is near.

Indeed, that's a DQ for not meeting the Main Challenge. I'll judge your card anyway after I'm done with the others.

EDIT June 25th 8 pm CET - Judgments complete. Awaiting @void_nothing's ones. I'm expecting him to post his judgments while I'm asleep tonight and I'll see them tomorrow. If they aren't there by then, I'll post Round 4 keeping only my own judgments into account.

As for the intended flavor, what I get is that your outlaw somehow wants to "restore his home" via "a cataclysm" that I guess is what this card is supposed to represent. But why does he want to "restore his home"? What's broken on his home plane? What is this "cataclysm" that others call "a miracle"? I guess it involves the sudden and impressive growth of plants, but why do plants growing help him in restoring his home? The flavor this round was intended to give answers, but here I feel it poses even more questions rather than answering the questions that have been established before.

And does name of first card fits as answer to some of your questions? If not then it's just my fault.
Anyway that intended flavor is a bit hard as task - for example you need to know both Loot, the Key to Everything and Omenpath Journey to fully understand Jace's motivation.

"Grimaz, Ever Hunger". It tells me that he(?) is always hungry, so does he just want to eat the magically grown plants as food? That's what I get from that... but I might be missing something, in which case it's my fault for not seeing it. In my opinion, others managed to fit the intended flavor more clearly, and I did give some 2/2 in Main Challenge, so it was possible. As for the high difficulty, part of it is intended, we're at the semifinals after all... Rounds are supposed to increase in difficulty during any given MCC month. Also, I've been telling you all since Round 1 that there would have been a time to explain why your outlaw ended up on Thunder Junction, and Round 3 was intended to be exactly that.

June Round 4 is now up.

July's round 1 will be up before long!
