I dunno, it could be a bit cheap. Should it cost 3 or 4?

Would be good in a CP Wyrm deck.

Wait, so if I actually play animate weapon on this, then play EE... and use Shuriken's ability, would that animate the EE and give me another Shuriken?

[EvaRia]

The animated shuriken cannot animate other weapons.

[Nepycros]

So, I'd just constantly toss these out, for around 3 each turn. I'm actually interested in this thing.

[EvaRia]

That's more or less the idea.

I may need to up the cost though, I'm not sure.

Anyone have any ideas?

I don't remember OldTrees' formula, but I think you should make both unupped and upped cost 4.

When I made this card, it had counters like bone wall and you lost one each turn. I think you could also animate them through an ability, but they were untargetable and had 0 health.

[Hyroen]

Would it be weird for me to say I love the card? Well, I do anyways!!

Good luck in the competition proud Air supporter EvaRia!!

in my opinion, this is too overpowered.
one can toss one out on the first turn for up to 6 damage.
third turn for total 12 damage.
fifth for a total of 18.

and if it is aiborne, that makes it even more overpowered.

[Nepycros]

Let's see, I helped make the formula, so I think I can help.

4 (attack) - 3 (weapon status) + ? (ability) = 1 + ?

The question is, does the ability only cost 1? I assume that since it creates a new card in your hand, that's about 2 in worth, not to mention the animate weapon...

Make the cost 4 for both.

Not at all.

Its stats when flown are 4|0 and 6|0, which means that they behave like Sparks (i.e. they are destroyed at the end of the turn if their HP is still 0). The only way that you can get them to stay on the field is if you buff them.

[Nepycros]

Well, if it dies after being flown (except after buffs), that lowers the cost of the card, I assume by 1. So, make them both cost 3.
