ART: artimies7 IDEA: Rutarete NOTES: Decoys are invisible for one turn. Is the invisibility part needed? Should decoys be vanilla or have some other ability? This is was for the Duality's Legacy Community Challenge. (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,26964.0.html) Sample Deck: Code: [Select] 52g 52g 52g 52g 52g 52k 52k 52k 52k 52k 52k 52n 52r 52r 542 542 542 542 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5oc 5pu 5pu 5pu 5un 5un 5un 5un 5uq 5uq 8pt ??? ??? ??? ???The deck is surely imbalanced, but the strategy is clear enough; using Stealth to make decoys to allow parasites to power vultures by infection. Upgraded this deck would do much more damage. ? ? ? = Stealth Flier SERIES:

the upped buff seems a bit too large...

[DrOctaganapus2]

I dont think the invisibility is needed. It cant be a decoy if the enemy cant see it...

The Decoy should look just like the Stealth Flier but with just 1/1 or 3/1...

[Rutarete]

Deck added.

the upped buff seems a bit too large...

Which buff should i take out then? Cost, ability, or stat raise?

[ZephyrPhantom]

Has to fit the following rule for challenge:

The card must be able to generate or interact with 2 quantum pools - 1 of it's own element, and 1 of another element.*

* Note - the interaction of the two pools must occur at the same time.

Perhaps the decoy could generate  instead?

[Pineapple]

I think that the decoy could do without the stat buff, with a result of 2|1 at the very most.
Note that the card Firefly Queen and Pharaoh have no changes upon upgrading, the fact that the spawn is balanced (Firefly to Elite Firefly, Scarab to Elite Scarab) is enough to balance the card.

And wouldn't it be cooler if the decoys were 1|0 and 2|0? If you did, then you could probably lower the initial and ability cost of Stealth Flier - so it would be easier to fit into a deck - and it would synergize with boneyard/bonewall/catcher/virus. Not to mention the thematic reason (who puts a working engine and a capable pilot in all 22 decoys that you produce from one plane?)

How silly of me to forget that

I lol'd. Not only is ^ funny but also that i had tried to make this in a thematic way.

So, changes to make:
I'll take away the invisible part.
Make upped decoy 2/1
Make both Decoys produce 
Maybe? -1|-1 to stealth flier cost.
Should the cost be -2 from what it is?

Card images will be updated later today.

Might want to fix the wording, too.
1. Does its skill last for one turn? (Generate a Decoy if it successfully attacks this turn?)
2. Does the skill generate a decoy upon use? (Like Pharaoh and Firefly Queen?)
3. Is the skill innate? (Generate a Decoy each time it attacks? Why does is there a skill cost?)
4. Is the skill a one-time use? (Using the ability changes its ability to [3]?)

1. No
2. Yes
3. No; It is lobotomizable.
4. No

Edit: Also, anyone who feels they have better art feel free to show it to me.

Also @ Patch (and everyone) How much of a buff should the upgraded get?

the upped buff seems a bit too large...

Or is Patch the only one who thinks this?

Edit#2
Images updated.

[artimies7]

It is a bit large. Just don't decrease the ability cost, and you're golden.

Well, except for the art. The art needs to be changed too.

Will you make art for it?

I can sure try. I'll get right on it.
