This could potentially backfire if you use it on the wrong creature (looks at guardian angel paired up with other creatures).

I like the idea, but I think this + Thorn Shield (deals poison damage to attackers) would make a lot of people rage quit over :life's excessive use of poisons. It's a good combo, but it's probably too good, especially seeing that there could be creatures that could use a quick-term investment/benefit from this over the regular Adrenaline.

Should I increase the cost?
I was thinking of this being even with basilisk's blood, but it seems more similar to rage potion...
But adrenaline only costs 4.
Poison is part of life, so you know, life/death combo  :P

I love the art.

Looks somewhat reminiscent of Chaos Seed.

I think the poison shield isn't heavily used and kind of sucks because you are taking full damage. It doesn't really do much against high hp creatures.

I say either raise the cost... Or leave the cost the same and maybe it's skill should be changed to grow? Or otherwise it's max hp is doubled or something?

This isn't actually supposed to be a beneficial card, it's more of a creature control used against enemy creatures at a cost.

I got that but thought maybe the creature should not just die on the first or second turn, (which would be the case for low attack creatures)

On second thought the skill is pretty balanced as is. Not sure what the difference is between just putting up the poison shield and then playing adrenaline on enemy creatures though...

It's quicker and cheaper and it's a sure poison :D

I like it. It is good creature control for life, and it fits.

Exclude the "poison for one count." on the table.

This could be really fun with massive dragon. It has the magic number and lots of HP to boot. It can also be used as adual tool like rage potion. I think it's a great idea :)

Adrenaline isn't that effective on a massive dragon, though. Might be good on an armagio.

Ouch =P
