Bravery | Heroism

[Nepycros]

NAME: Bravery ELEMENT: Earth COST: 5 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: Target creature gains the passive skill "Courageous" in addition to the creature's original skills	NAME: Heroism ELEMENT: Earth COST: 4 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: Target creature gains the passive skill "Courageous" in addition to the creature's original skills

ART: Flayne IDEA: Nepycros NOTES: Courageous: All creatures with the passive skill 'Courageous' gain +1|+0 for every creature with more attack than them. However, the creature cannot become any more powerful than the other strongest creature on the field, so as to prevent fractal-abuse.

I really like this one, and I think it works great with Ground and their mediocre attack.

I assume it is every creature on both sides of the field?

again, Table should credit Flayne for art

IDK if the change would be necessary, but "Any creature...gains...it" sounds better to me because it's singular. I thought the use of the plurals made it ambiguous.

If the attack reaches the point when the creature's attack is higher than the others, would it keep the attack boost?

[Nepycros]

If you buff it to where it's normal attack would be higher than a creature whose attack was normally higher, then it loses the +1|+0 for being weaker than that creature. If its normal attack is lower than a creature's, but its attack, when enhanced by this card, is higher than the creature's, it does not remove points.

If a creature's normal attack is higher than all other creatures' attacks, it doesn't get any bonuses.

Infinite loop with 2 creatures with heroism and the same atk on the field?

[Nepycros]

No. When 2 creatures have the same attack, it doesn't trigger this effect. It can't perform a permanent loop. Thought I had cleared that up only a moment before. -_-

[YoYoBro]

Whoops. Didn't notice that sorry.. apart from that, the card looks nice, a new mechanic is always good.

EDIT: Wait, my own wording was bad. Consider this scenario. A regular creature with 4 atk is on the field. A creature with 3 and bravery enters the bf. The creature should then have its atk raised by 1 because of bravery, but that would negate the condition. Would the effect then detrigger? Or just give the creature with bravery 1 free point of attack and then not detrigger even if it should? I guess it would be hard to code...

I guess it would be hard to code...

Exactly what i was thinking.

[Rutarete]

this could make cards like brimstone and damselfly used so much more often! cool card!

[Nepycros]

I will explain.

If a creature with 3 attack and "Courageous" is on the field, and a creature with 4 attack is on the field, then the creature with 3 attack would add +1 because its normal attack is less than the other creature's normal attack.
