For a dragon, it's not very strong :P

I feel like it's too expensive. Maybe make upkeep 1 :air even for unupped version or decrease initial cost?

Otherwise, good card and good chance for Damselfly to perhaps make an appearance, although more :air pillars performs the same effect.

I am interested in whether people think this is balanced or not.

This would work great with the new Damselfly and even though it absorbs 1 :air per turn, 3  :air for a 6|4 Creature isn't bad in the first few turns. I feel like this is dependent on the Damselfly though. Having more then 2-3 of these on the field, especially unupgraded, would be a huge burden.

Seems quite UP in my opinion.

T-Head Dragon: (3+2x):air for 6x damage
Azure Dragon:   10 :air for 9x damage
x=turns alive

After 4 turns you pay more :air and do less damage. but this is all assuming your dragons are unaffected by outside forces.
Anyone else?

I think the upped is not balanced. The upped i feel should cost 4, because of the 6 attack.
Also- this is much easier to fractal than other dragons- a fractal rush of this is faster than a lycanthrope rush. (granted there is the turn by turn quanta requirement, but if it's a rush as a finishing blow, i think it's OP)
It is the greatest mystery of all...

Maybe make it so they die before they attack if there is not enough quanta.

Interesting factoid:

The Eborsisk
A two-headed dragon, born of a mistakenly launched spell and a troll who got in the way. Created for the movie Willow (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0096446/), the Eborsisk is so-named in honor of famous film critics Roger Ebert and Gene Siskel.

This cards is 'WEAK'

For a pure beatdown card with an upkeep, I expect more bang for my buck.  Frog is 5 attack for 2 cost for a 2.5 ratio and has no upkeep effect.  Frog is entirely better than this card.  As far as 3 cost cards, spider also has 6 attack and also has a web ability which is useful.

'If' the unupped version is decently balanced, then the best balance for the upped version would be a bump to 8 to 10 attack.  Without the extra attack on the upped version, this card is completely useless.  10 attack and say 3 :air upkeep would be an interesting upgrade if you keep the 3 :air cost.
