wow, i like the card, but i think 1 :water creature is enough with a  :aether ability cost. try maybe :darkness , that sounds more in that domain

I was actually trying to enhance :aether / :water duos. You rarely see them played, and Mind Flayer is best used in rainbows. Also, aboleths are psionic creatures. Psionic Wave and Mind Flayer suggest those to be :aether domain.

I like this card, but the cost can go down...But what I love about this card the most is that it will cripple those Dragons and Steam Machines, not including it will be a nightmare to most FGs. But it should last 3 turns considering how OP it can be if you got a lot of  :water pillars and like 9  :aether pendelums

Well, I didn't even think about it. I guess you're right, but I see this used mostly in stall decks. Water / Aether stall can become deadly with this card, as it can be a win condition on its own.

Would the damage be immediate?  Or would it be an attack (requiring shield conditions)?

Immediate, but it may be reduced by shields... I don't know.

Interesting card, I honestly think that the cost should be lowered to  5 :water for upped.

A good counter against growth creatures and usable on your own creatures if they are anti-mattered, a constant heal source though for 3 :aether, it really depends on the creatures attack size prior to it being anti mattered to be worth wasting on it, rather than damaging.
though i doubt it would be used for such reasons.

pretty good idea though, especially if the opponent is spamming dragons on the field.

Compare it to Dive. It looks UP to my naked eye...
CC:6, AC:2 should be able to 10 damage per turn.
This is more like CC:6, AC:4 for 10 damage per turn.

I would drop CC to 5 and AC to :aether :aether


CC: Casting Cost
AC: Activation Cost
