ART: sealyman IDEA: girlsgeneration, Jenkar NOTES: Winner of the C-C-C-Combo Maker! Competition (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,29916.0.html) Sadism : noun. any enjoyment in being cruel. Note that the card counts every instance of damage inflicted, NOT the amount of damage. A 5-damage Lightning Bolt triggers Sadism once, just as if a 3-damage Rain of Fire would. Cards such as Gravity Pull or Ice Bolt used on a high HP creature can trigger Sadism multiple times, obviously. Also note that killing the creature does NOT trigger Sadism. We think enjoyment of death (Necrophilia? <_<) is completely distinct from the enjoyment of pain. This also happens to be the main reason why this card is not in Element . There are way too many cards that could create synergies with Sadism, but we will list a few. * All mass creature controls. Pretty obvious.  Special mention : Unstable Gas. Hurts your own creatures and doubles the effect.  Special mention 2 : Plague. Damage instance from all opponent creature EVERY TURN? * Aflatoxin. Fill opponent's field with cells and boom. * Rage Potion, Acceleration, Voodoo Dolls. Sadistic cards by default. SERIES:

I really like this card. I voted for it in the competion. Just one question, does the max HP of the creature or the player increase?

Mediocre concept. If the card was balanced so that it wouldn't be overpowered with Fire Shield (right now it definitely is), it would probably be useless with all the other possible synergies. Gratz on the competition win.

I assumed it was the player hp when I voted for it in the combo competition.  I figured it would be way too underpowered if it was creature hp.

Possible balancing clause: up to X times per turn.
