NOTES:
"Take your time today"

"Remember, time is relative… especially when near objects of enormous mass"


Created because science inspired cards are awesome :D

Gives a way to use gravity pull more than 6 times in a deck and provides added defensive utility to it.

The delay chance stacks. So if there are 3 of these in play, creatures that get blocked by gravity pull will have a 45% chance to be delayed.

This chance will include copies of the card on BOTH sides of the field. So if both players have a stack of 2 of these then the chance to delay would be 60%

This effect also acts as an inherent counterbalance against using gravity pull to kill enemy creatures since you will risk delaying your own.

Seems a bit UP? Skill cost should at least be equal to gravity force cost (2|1), maybe 3|2 if reusable GP seems too powerful (it doesn't to me).

Voodoo dolls can make gp on a stick fairly abusable. I can bring the skill cost down to 3|2 though. I aimed a bit high just to be safe... I just don't want to see voodoo trap rushes becoming TOO easy.

Hm actually quite interesting. It's not bolt on a stick but could be and it can also be used as protection, I like it. However like most of your cards Odin it's up and deserves a cost decrease of at least 2 on both ability and card cost i think. I agree that it's better to start up and work towards balanced ( thats also how Zanz works ) but sometimes you go to up.

But overall you are really good at finding new mechanics.

I don't know if that would be so abusable? It demands at least a trio and that would cost speed and even then it would have it's weaknesses.

Okay, I've dropped both casting and activation costs a good deal.
so instead of 5|5 cost with 4|3 activation, it is now 3|2 cost with 2|2 activation
Is this good or will it still be UP?

Hmm, how so? VD + BB + This is a quartet (Though it can use time's drawpower) and this is a perm so there's a one turn delay. I'd say that VDB can be faster and with same combo-luck (maybe VDB can be even better, as SoB>Precog/hourglass)

I was thinking more that if i drop the cost and activation too low that it could get put into a voodoo bow
this + dolls + fractal.
