Don't forget Catapult! Maybe Paradox as well... if that could work, less HP for a lesser price would be cool. Is it an active skill? Very interesting mechanic XP

mm catapult forgot about that, although catapult is a negative effect from this passive ability.

Paradox... good question.. I would originally think paradox works (if its attack is currently higher than hp obviously) but maybe not.. something to think about.

Does this mean this creature is exempt from chimera?
If not, does it stack on normally or in a special way.
Looks pretty good, maybe a 1 decrease in Attack, other than that looks really "Heavy".

I think this card is OP. It costs same as Abomination and has a passive ability (Is the ability too weak to be ignorable to the card cost). The upped one costs same as Elite Cockatrice considering the fact that they get life element bonus of being cheaper.

I think being heavy in elements refers to having high hp. So it arised a bit of confusion when i immediately saw the card. This creature is pretty good for buffs because of it's passive.


If i were you i would change to,

Unupped : 4|6 for 5 with heavy passive.
Upped : 4|7 for 4 with heavy passive.


A bull like sturdy creature for Earth is a cool idea.

Doesn't Catapult sacrifice (kill) the creature ? Paradox also kills the creature. I doubt that.

The only three cards that "remove" a creature are Reverse Time , Eternity (ironically has good sync with ), and chimera.  All other cards technically kill the creature.

It's not really much of a big difference compared to Abomination, and the passive is sort of situational otherwise.  Seems ok to me.

Thematically it makes no sense that Time cannot use reversal on a creature because it is heavy.

Heavy already has a meaning in the game which is hp, and that doesn't seem to fit either. I know you are shooting for a semi vanilla creature but I just don't the card...


We already have multiple heavy skills - Momentum and gravity pull...

I like it, it seems like a good creature to me

If the skill's name is to be changed though I would make it something like sturdy, or hefty or just for laughs "Wideload"

Technically, Chimera doesn't "remove" it from the field. Actually, all cards become part of the Chimera, that's why the combined attack/hp.
I see "remove" as TAKING IT off of the field to SOMEWHERE ELSE, as your hand, your deck or to the 5th dimmension.

Maybe you could change the passive's name. "Heavy" doesn't sound that good to me, because most people already see it as high hp... I guess we can get used, but I'd prefer a name change...

Eternal? Steadfast? Steady?
