simmilar to ash eater/brimestone eater. only with air. i still love it.+It switches its attack with its life.
Strictly worse than storm crow ;DHhahaha. It's been a long time since I've heard(read) this phrase.
NOOOO! This is a HUGE nerf for :air ! Damselfly just went from a badass finisher w/Sky Blitz to...fodder. :(Don't know if you were being sarcastic, but either way I agree with your statement.
How is this a nerf to damselfly? Other than affecting the automulligan.....Damselfly's damage is halved if this new update sets in.

Yeah, I don't really see this as a buff either and I don't think this will improve Damselfly's already dismal status.
I disapprove of this, but then again, the old Damselfly wasn't much better.How is this a nerf to damselfly? Other than affecting the automulligan.....Damselfly's damage is halved if this new update sets in.
*headdesk* Thank you for reminding me of that :)How is this a nerf to damselfly? Other than affecting the automulligan.....Damselfly's damage is halved if this new update sets in.
Lose the air production? That is what made this card fun in the first place! That was there before the buff.oops. typo. i meant keep. i was thinking about my own card
Fine. Back on topic.It's not a clone of RoL... it's weaker. Its extra point of health really doesn't change anything. RoL is cool because it can couple with Hope to great effect. Gemfinder is cool because it's great in a Golem deck for much-needed :earth quanta. However, the new Damselfly doesn't really have any of this dynamic; it's just a pillar as a creature. And creatures are susceptible to creature control, especially one this fragile.
I would disagree. I like the new upgraded one.
It makes sense thematically that an insect would have no cost.
It isn't a clone of RoL because it has more health, makes :air, and doesn't combo with Hope.
Though I'll admit this card still isn't very strong, it isn't supposed to be.
The upped one is an air pillar with 1 attack, essentially. I see nothing wrong with that.
Fine. Back on topic.The damselfly's stats are 1|1 in the proposed picture in the front, not 1|2.

And no, for the record, I wasn't being sarcastic. I love the new Dragonfly, but the old Damselfly was MUCH better for :air than this new version is. I understand the desire to avoid a 2-ATK creature with no cost, but honestly I'd way rather see Damselfly become 2|2 (or 3|1) Air for 1 :air than for it to be 1|1 Air for free.Agreed.
how about making the upgraded a 2/1 and keep the air production?I think this is a good idea:
Air hath not a pumpspell nor anything that benefits from spamming creatures. (permanent wise)Not yet, anyway. Still, sky blitz is not cheap either.
From a ttw standpoint, this is a huge nerf to damselfly. Even before skyblitz, damselfly was a pro card few people knew about. I don't like this change at all. Damselfly was fine as is.NOOOO!

This is a painful nerf to damselfly.... It basically ruins my deck http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,18220.0.html (http://Fragile Flyers)
It will probably add a turn to the TTW. Really unhappy about this.
2|1 means 8 damage per turn, with adren. That is a nice card. 1|1 is like a joke. Super vulnerable and no bite either.
I am sad this will ruin my deck :(
Damselfly has been changed in the Trainer again. Its stats are now 2|1 with no cost.That actually makes it worth using IMO. Air doesn't benefit much from quanta producers anyways, so being slightly stronger than the other quanta producing creatures shouldn't be a problem.
At 2|1 with no cost this card is awesome and probably bumps Powerful Wyrms ahead of destroyer rush in ttw. I think it could be a bit much to have a free 2|1 creature with an ability but it certainly would be totally game changing. Upped Wyrm is a useable midrange attacker on it's own but air does not have an upgraded card that has an attack 2 or more above cost like many other elements have so it would be reasonable to have a more powerful 0 cost creature than other elements. It is still not as powerful as RoL, with it's Hope synergy so I think it would be fine to stay at these new stats. I also would not complain if it was reverted back to original stats.Since :air has no pumpable spell a free 2/1 card isn't that OP. :air is a pretty agressive like :fire sans the PC, so it makes sense it should be pretty fast.
Edit: I just realized that destroyer rush may become faster as well using free gemfinders as cremation fodder so it may be a battle as to which gains more by these buff, Powerful Wyrms or destroyer rush.
and what about brimstone eater? (1 fire cost 2/1 and no airborne)Then every :fire stall packs 6 and becomes faster. No thanks.
