Hmm...I'm kind of having mixed feelings about this card. On one hand, I love the effect and what it does...but for some reason I feel as if there is a balance issue. Comparing this with Immolation/Cremation for a moment, I couldn't imagine having that same card become a permanent where quanta are generated at the price of sacrificing a single creature; it's on the verge of overpowered as is. But on the other hand, maybe the initial cost compensates for that aspect? I'm not an expert on card balancing however, so I honestly can't make up my mind on this one. For me it would seem just as powerful to make it a spell with maybe an initial quanta cost to make it less readily available. I suppose it's true that this card has a major weakness by being susceptible to Permanent Control, but being that only 4 of those types of cards exist, I just can't see that being enough of a counter to this card. Just food for thought, being that there's no real way to test this card in action, there's no way to confirm that there really is a balance issue. I'd like to see how it does in the Crucible nonetheless and maybe give Rustler some competition for quanta production.
