I have an issue with congeal here--I would put congeal after the description, ie after the buffs state "Creature is congealed". This is because immortality in practice nullifies the frozen state when casted. However, congeal itself is not really appropriate as I do not see any link between ascendance and being congealed. Why not stuck in a time bubble/stunned/delayed for 4 turns?

Have you realized that Immortality cures freeze? Other then that, it seems like a balanced card, not as powerful as it seems.
I thought only the freeze icon disappears, which is a bug that is only visual. Otherwise, how can Ice Shield freeze immortal creatures?
That is the order of effects. If you apply congeal last, it will work.

To be honest, the idea can be a bit OP by how it can be invincible.

This card is awesome :p I just don't see where this is more useful than a strong air creature :/

Seems better now since the target creature is congealed. But to be honest, why would immortality and momentum and adrenaline got to do with air?

Not again...

I like some of your advance spell in the series, but not this one. I can't find it fits the AIR element as all the effects are not from AIR.
As I said, I could've just made this into a spell that gives Dive to a creature, but that would lobotomize the creature that I target. So I just went ahead and gave the creature a bunch of other buffs that are better than Dive. Not really that different.

When Gl1tch originally suggested this card, he named it "Cloudform".
Is it that hard to read only two pages of posts?

I honestly think you have a great idea going on here, but the truth is air doesn't need any more buffing...
Other than that, there is a whole purpose behind the game having a range of elemental themes. Adrenaline, congeal, and momentum has nothing to do with air.

I have an issue with congeal here--I would put congeal after the description, ie after the buffs state "Creature is congealed".

Something like this would make a lot more sense.

Hi Bloodshadow, having trouble with extensive criticism again? ><

This happened with Luminiferous Aether too, sort of =O

I actually agree with the way the card works right now. It's like having a creature that's completely free from any of what your opponent is doing. Completely on a "Higher Level". I think that kind of freedom of movement is great on any card.

The only thing is, it is very expensive with the addition of consuming all Air Quanta. For buffing only one creature, it seems like it won't be worth using. Again, like an earlier post, SEEMS. It may be balanced, but I can't tell without testing.

Don't worry Bloodshadow, people love you cards. Luminiferous Aether is in the armory and this is in the forge.
