So, I have this nymph right?

She's a real fine girl, always dresses up, wears this pretty light blue dress all the time. Intelligent, clever, engaging, she's got it all. Pretty nice to look at too, in her mysterious kind of way. Not that I would look at her. I mean, that would just be inappropriate. Even though she is very attractive.

But, she doesn't seem the same around the other girls. It's weird, because they all look like twins, right? I mean, how weird is that? You'd think they would get along. But no, there's a slight problem.

The one wearing the dark blue. She's the ringleader, top in all the subjects, great leadership skills and everything. And she's jealous. She's not strong herself, but with those other girls, they can really pick on her. And she's got them right where she wants them. It's almost as if, she had, created them to do her will or something. No, just kidding, move along, I'm not crazy or anything! Definetely not crazy, no crazy person here.

But together, they make the pretty one in the light blue dress's life quite difficult. She's just not strong enough to stand up to them. Not that it would do much good in this situation. Strength doesn't matter here, the one in the purple dress, she is an abuser she is - you can tell just by the way she walks, she has this... way of making others useless. She kind of blinks her eyelids, does a cute little curtsey and the guy who was about to hit her suddenly decided that then would be a good time to jump off the roof of the school. True story there, I was on lunch duty that day, and watched it all, amazed. Okay, and a little scared. But not much.

There’s this other one, who dresses up in a lush green, who we know is supplying drugs to the school -not that we've been able to prove it- and she always manages to slip this stuff in the nymph's food or drink. I mean, we can tell, because she's got a slight digestion problem. And this stuff just speeds it up. No idea how it does it, I want nothing to do with it.

She’s never asked for help or anything. She seems fine being oppressed, but it pains my heart to see her being victimised, just because of jealousy. I’m not asking for a Miracle here, this girl is worth more than that. She doesn’t need more strength either; it’s not that she needs. Its stamina, and ability to stand up for herself.

So, what I am really asking here is, can you give this poor girl – whose friends are constantly suppressing her talent and ability - one more health. It will give her the strength to stand up for herself. And it will give me joy in knowing that my favourite student will reach her full potential, and also, I want to be able to use 2 unstable gases without her, you know, dying?

The generate unstable gas means, this nymph plants an unstable gas permanent?
This seems way OP with QE, you have about 3 turns after this gets played.

Lol, she's passing gas

...also, yeah, strong if not too strong unless the gas destroys itself after one use.

I'm sure the gas is one use only.. or it would be tremendously OP.. 5 gases (gases right?) is an auto win with no reflection?

Not if they have healing, or permanent destruction, or stone skin / d-shard, or if they kill you first.

If you stack up all the gas and then ignite it all in one go it is much less stoppable.

It's still a lot of damage that bypasses most shields, but yes, it's obviously not unstoppable. Nothing in this game is an instant win.

Except of course having a reflective shield yourself with 999 fire quanta, 6 lances, 520  hp, 6 SoG, and 6 miracles. But even then, it is theoretically possible to lose my being killed before you activate your lances
I ask nothing of humanity but fairness in all things, but I do not expect even that.

That's 30 cards for the last four items, plus an implied 92 earth quanta, and we'll say you only need to kill 100 HP in one shot which means it only takes 134 fire quanta. You'd need a way to pay for miracles as well, and those SoGs have a small cost too.

I'd say you decked out a few turns ago. I'd also say you're cheating since you're holding 6 lances and 6 miracles in a 7 card hand.

Edit: Oh yeah, since you wanted a reflective shield that's another card used up... though you could pull it off against a player who uses a zero-offense dissipation stall deck if you used quantum pillars and Etenity...
