"the thing that play around card draw must be :time  or atleast :aether since this card use to fight againt draw....."   i bet that will have someone tell you like this so i do it by myself...    it's true...  but it's too common for me.   ^-^

gain 1 life per opponent draw don't good for me.  but deal 1 dmg each turn is ok.   btw...  i very like this card art   can i use it for my next card?   ;D

Ok, I changed it up a bit and gave it some art. I personally would love to have this card in my deck.

Imo, this card may be a bit OP... especially against FGs that use hourglasses... I mean, they draw two cards at least, so 4hp, but they might also use 3 or 4 hourglasses... so that could give you like 16hp or so each turn... maybe set a limit on it?
Gone for awhile now, though I still pop by from time to time.

Well i thought about that and that much HP didn't seem like a huge amount when playing a FG (compared to the damage they do). Besides, the opponent has the option to draw or not knowing they're giving you life if they do.

Most decks survive FG's by phase shifting. Each turn dimensional shift can prevent a huge amount of damage.

I am going to modify your OP(opening post) to fix a few things for you.

Do you see what I changed?

the symbol was used instead of the word on Element lines
and there was an :air on upped cost instead of an :aether.

It may be a bit strong, but I like countering the extremely popular drawing of extra cards.

drawing more cards is only but so good...I don't see many decks that use that as a strategy, besides, there's already  :darkness's nightmare which helps alot to preventing draws.

arena deck of 2x draw wit this = 12x of 2 dmg/healing?

more direct question: does this thing stack?? that'd be a pain if, say lionheart draws 6~8 cards a turn, that's equal to 12~16 healing/damage multiplied by how many copies are in play???
