In that case, you should remove the restriction of being unique to an element.

Spoiler for This is a disaster. We need a miracle!:


IDEA:
Based on Miracle.
NOTES:
  • Your HP is set to 1, then your turn ends and creatures and weapon attack, presumably with vampire effects or other end of turn healing effects, THEN your opponent's HP is reduced to 1 (unless they have more than 100hp). This gives you a win condition, but one with many counters. Excessive healing on their end, not having enough healing to deal with their current board presence, etc etc.
  • It does NOT affect max HP.
  • Clearly it wouldn't be OP against false gods, as it isn't automatically setting their HP to 1, in fact one of its counters would be heavy HP increases.

Solaris and I talked it over, and we believe the precedent is that all submissions must be new works. If you're able to find a counter example we'll revisit this, but for now the ruling is no.

Can we use Other?

Oops, missed your question somehow, sorry. I'm not going to say that you can't, but other cards generally don't have that unique theme/mechanic thing going for them. If you can make it work, go for it!

NOTES:
Spark meets momentum meets life.

Target this on an allied card to save it from an annoying shield like fog or ice, or on itself before it dies if you want to get past a more annoying shield like dims. If you buff the force, it can stay alive and constantly give whatever your biggest fighter is momentum.

Upgraded, the momentum loses the "this turn" timeframe, making shields even less of an issue for your other creatures while this spirit beats their face in! Although this does really start to overshadow Momentum, I consider momentum some of the worst shield bypass in the game, which is why I'm comfortable pushing this.

I'm assuming you meant the target creature gains the full effects of the momentum spell (bypass shields, +1|1), not just the momentum status. If that is the case this cards is very op, especially when you consider Silence + Fractal + Raw Force is a potential two turn kill for only 21 :life and 11 :aether

Momentum refers to both the status and the card. In any case where it's not the card, it's the status; the effect only bypasses shields.

Ah, my bad.
I saw the "spark +momentum" bit an thought you were referring to momentum(spell)'s use for keeping 0 hp creatures alive.

Niche card, not every idea needs to be the next big thing. Reflected in it's low cost, despite being mass CC and recovery in one.

Workable as an offensive for, or a defence against Water decks. The better it supports a deck, the better it also counters it.

Possibly surprise OTK your way out of Squid lockdown.

Made it more angry and murdery than Freeze with a damage condition because Fire likes killing things.

"Overcharge" means use it on the same target multiple times a turn, and the result is they get lobotomized, even permanents. You still get the second use out of their skill though.

Cannot target frozen, delayed or immaterial creatures.

Using it on a pillar, gnome rider, ray of light etc gives you the quanta they would make.
Burrows/unburrows a devourer.
Using it on a SoV, sanctuary etc activates their end of turn effect.
Using it on a weapon with a passive effect when dealing damage (Arsenic, Discord) does nothing.
Using it on a vampire, scorpion etc does nothing.
Using it on a salvager activates the salvage effect.
Using it on flooding drains the opponent 1  :water.
Cool thing: Use it on an opponent's SoP to remove it.
