IDEA:
AD TienzuStorm
NOTES:
An idea I've had for a bit but never made until now.

Obviously, this goes very well with buff cards like Blessing and Momentum since the buff is doubled upon using Equip.

I suppose this is actually very similar to Deja Vu, but it has enough unique features to differentiate the two I think.

Even as a vanilla creature this would be a very cheap card. I'd suggest upping the cost or lowering the stats

Not very, but I suppose so.

Perhaps 4 for 5|4?

It would be interesting to see these in a light/aether deck with gravity mark. Or some combination just to get fractals into the mix.

Even with just three copies of this on the field, chaining the abilities...
(EA)4|5 + (EA ability)4*2|5*2 = 12|15
(EA)4|5 + (EA ability)12*2|15*2 = 28|35

If I'm reading the ability correct, fractal isn't even necessary. Three of these babies makes a 28|35 monster!

Indeed... with stat doubling as it is, PU may even be worthwhile.
Given that cardinal towers are in forge (and thus will probably get put in cygnia) the combo is fairly doable using light mark and cardinal towers.
Alternately, mito might be worthwhile as well which could run off of grav mark and spiritual pillars.

Stat doubling might be tricky to balance right... I think slightly lower starting stats would be good here though.

Hm, well I was trying to go for a support kind of midhitter for Light unupped (although yes, I did maybe sorta made this too powerful for a cost efficient creature).

I'm thinking now that 4 :light for 4|5 wouldn't be too bad, even 3|5 if necessary (although I'd really prefer that this is somewhat usable on its own).

If you aren't too attached to the doubling feature, the card would still be nice just adding the stats across.

EA would function like a more predictable but slower Chaos Power. Guaranteed +4|+5 but having to wait a turn to use it doesn't sound horrible. It's a lot more expensive, but it doesn't require a monster in order to use the card. Plus, the turn you're waiting to use the ability, the card is still doing the damage it would have otherwise done when added to another card.

Updated with +1 cost to both versions.

Seem relatively balanced now?

i think Enchanted Armor is a very great card
with simple to understand card text which is kind of awesome as well.

Sacrifice this card and transfer double stats to target creature

the gameplay effects of Enchanted Armor are very interesting,
with just one skill, player get to sacrifice, doubling stats and buff creature.

Enchanted Armor will probably be appealing to all general elements players.

Decent midhitter between Pegasus/Crusader and Archangel with a very useful boosting ability. I'd like to see this in play.

+1 for Crucible ready.

I still think there is too much potential for stat inflation on this thing...
