IDEA:
Xenocidius
NOTES:
Basically, you cast this spell on a card in your hand and it will create a copy of that card in your hand.
I'm unsure about the pricing - 4/3 :aether + the cost of the card might be a bit too much.
Another awesome idea would be to let it target your opponent's cards too - then it would be a gamble unless you packed Precognition.
I don't think it should be able to target cards on the board, but maybe it should. Thoughts?

Oh god -.-

This can get to some ridiculous levels with some of Aether's already extreme card advantage gaining cards.

Think about it. 12 Silences. 12 Dim Shields. 12 Parallel Universes.

Wait, no! I'm thinking too narrowly.

Arena:

24 Silences. TWENTY FOUR.

Ye--- No.

Uhh ... guilt? AI would probably play it on the wrong cards.

Dimensional shields are ... a problem. Maybe have it unplayable on Aether cards? Would fit thematically, I suppose, if they were considered "immaterial". Although, Dimensional Shield *could* be nerfed soon - it's already considered OP. If it was made 2 turns, this card could balance it out.

Any suggestions?

Guilt has it's limitations, I've seen 4 turns with a "guilt" card used all turns, even multiple times during a turn.  While there is guilt there is still triggers that make AI play these regardless.

Tbh, there is nothing wrong with 24 Dim. Shields, as long as you get 12 Sapphire Chargers :) But yeah, it could mean an extreme advantage to flying Titans... and Armagios

lol@guilt -- 2 out of 3 turns is still enough to cripple your ability to play cards, especially when combined with other denial (BH, EQ, Nightmare, Pest, etc.)

If it ever makes it into the game, the AI will probably have a priority list created by Zanz that allows it to choose the right targets.
