An interesting card, and it syncs well with Devourer´s now to think of an effective fire and darkness deck...

how does this shard syncs well with devourer?

Strength of SoB is that it allows you both to draw cards faster.  Simply put, the player who can play more of their cards faster (faster quanta generation) is the one that wins/takes advantage of it.

He got my idea through, I was reffering the specific power of Devourer to clog up an opponent´s hand as their mana wont be really being brought in... Anyways back to thinking as I refuse to admit that Gargoyle Rage is the best I can think of.

Raging dolls much? you dont want to clog up your opponents hand when using SoB or you wont be able to draw 2 or 3 cards...

So this card, does it give only the amount of spaces that the opponent has? (ie 2 spaces give 2, 1 space gives 1)>

yup, you can only draw as much cards as your opponent does when using SoBe

Strength of SoB is that it allows you both to draw cards faster.  Simply put, the player who can play more of their cards faster (faster quanta generation) is the one that wins/takes advantage of it.
An alternate strength (though somewhat more situational) is that it can force opponent to draw faster without increasing your rate (if used cleverly)

For instance. If your hand is full but opponents is near empty and you cast SoB, the opponent will draw 3 cards while you will draw only 1 (to replace the shard). This can be an interesting means of mitigating loss due to deck out.
Whether the glass is half full or half empty is a moot point. It is always filled to the brim. It is only a matter of by what. The real question is: What fills you?
If your zombie plan is
kill -9 `ps l | awk '{print $2" "$3" "$9}' | grep "Z" | awk '{printf("%s ",$2)}'`

It's no longer rainbow, which is nice.... but now it's also cheaper.

Compare:


I get the feeling that this shard's power hasn't changed much at all - it still only takes a Nova to power a fully upgraded one, and a Supernova to power the unupgraded one. At worst, you'll spend 2 Nova + 1 SoB to draw 2 cards, which is 3-for-2 (3-for-3 if you're running a fire mark.), and breaking even isn't bad when you have 12-22 more quanta and 2 cards to play it with.
