IDEA:
Ajit, Kamietsu
NOTES:
- Boosts towards Sparks/Ball Lightnings are cumulative
- Boosts only last as long as Turquoise Stone/Gem is on the field.
- Sparks/Ball Lightnings will obviously die if their HP goes back down to 0
- Ability works like Parallel Universe

Changes:
- Changed ability from removing Immaterial to a Parallel Universe effect

I'd change the remove immaterial ability. even with the +5/+5 to the creature. Instead, I'd make it have a Parallel Universe effect. Something like:  :aether :aether: Turn into target creature.

Ohh thanks for the idea, now I have some deciding to do.  Any particular reason why you would prefer a Parallel Universe effect over the current?

Immaterial shoudl always stay immaterial. That's why i dislike un-immaterialing creatures. A creature that has the same effect as a PU just sounds like an interesting concept. That way, you get a useful card while in play, and when you could play a PU, you already have a card that can turn into that creature. It's like a PU but a bit more powerful, yet not making PU obsolete, since not every deck with PU uses sparks.

Many people. However this card does not affect burrowed creatures, only immaterial creatures.

So I do really like Kamietsu's suggestion about Parallel Universe being the ability, but can't decide, should I replace the current ability?  I'll throw up a poll.

Alright cool, looking at the poll, I've decided to change it to a PU effect  ::)

Thanks Kamietsu I'll add you to the card creators.

I envisioned it to follow the same pattern as Parallel Universe, so no, as of right now it only works on creatures.
