IDEA:
ratcharmer
NOTES:
The 3 quanta (and possibly 3 life) produced by this card isn't much, but bring able to kill your own creatures at will could be very good for a death deck.
Using this card will not activate boneyard/graveyard
It can only be used once per turn, in case there's any confusion.
Like cremation, this does not trigger voodoo doll's ability.
SERIES:
Alright, so I'm suggesting another permanent idea.

Here's a list of what I would like feedback on:
-is the general concept useful/would this contribute to the game?
-how does is balance? If you think the balance is off please feel free to list what you would like to see changed.

could see a few synergy to go with it.   I like it.  Hope to see it in game.

It would combien with a mono-death rush, Flesh Recluses, You sacrifice the skeletons and get a flesh recluse and if unupped team it up with  :life that way you can adrenaline those flesh recluses

Just one thought:

When you scarifice does it count towards Boneyard|Graveyard or will it work like killing a Boneyard Skellie does (ie no bonus)

Thanks

I was originally thinking it would, if that's too OP then I can easily make it so it doesn't

Yes I think if it can activate Boneyard it will become a bit OP but it has merit.

Personally I would lose the ability to activate Boneyard and leave the rest the same.

Thanks

i like it, it would work pretty well in a rush death deck with ivory dragons, but it loses its worth after a short while in the match, death doesnt really need to stockpile its quanta like darkness/fire/water do
my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard and they're like "its better than yours" damn right, its better than yours! i can teach you but i'd have to charge!

Yes but with these in play and a Bone wall you can almost indifinately hold off an attack.

Think 6 of these, Aflatoxin and Bonewall and you become uber fortress with enough quanta to bring out your Ivory dragons when you want.

But I see your point.
