Added a mysterious addition to my Portfolio. Related to the Concept Crypt.
In other news, if I'm right I have just had my first card allowed into the Armory!! Thank you to all those who supported
Monkey (

Awakening | EnlightenmentIronic that I'm reviewing this card when I'm half asleep but I digress.
Awakening | Enlightenment was the 3rd and final submission for the aforementioned competition where we had to use images given to us.
When I think of
Time, I imagine certain themes which have already been somewhat built into the element, knowledge and Ancient Egypt. In this case the evident theme behind the card was knowledge. In resting for some time, Awakening | Enlightenment allowed all creatures summoned with the same name as the creature which meditated to have their power increased or "awakened" if you will.
An unfortunate downfall of this card in my honest opinion was the memory mechanic which some members are very against including in card ideas. This card forces the game to remember what card you sent back to your deck so you could power it up later. While Zanzarino said anything is possible, it is the extra effort Zanzarino would have to make which I think pushed some people away.
All in all, this was probably my least favourite from the 3 for the competition, but my tired being may be biased. I definitely still support the theme of knowledge and experience as
Time's but for my current standards this card is subpar. May remake the card or scrap it entirely. I will have to think of how to remake this card if I do.
And that's all this time. Goodnight forum. zzzzz
