EMP pulse/wave (need art ^^)

[assassim]

hehe now that I got your attention, here's the card (without the pic atm)

Card Name: Electromagnetic Pulse(EMP)/Electromagneti Wave (EMW) (upped)
Element: Aether
Cost: 4/3 
Type: Spell
Effect: All creatures/permanents lose their effects until the end of this turn.

This means you can't do anything after you play this card, but your oppentents immortals are now targetable with spells and shields are useless for the end of this turn.

Nice idea! A few questions:
Will pillars/towers lose their effect too?
Are passive skills affected?

I would say yes to both ... seems logical to me ...
it wouldn't be overpowered then because it also blocks the own quanta flow ... nice with sundial - if sundial is played afterwards.

[assassim]

Yes passive skills are affected, all creatures "lose they're status and ability till the end of the turn

Havn't decided wheter pillers would be affected, or to make it work it dive.

[Terroking]

Pillars have an ability, (The "Fire" or "Earth" passive ones on gemfinders and brimstone eaters, as does your mark) so it would likely shut down all of them, unless it specifically shouldn't.

[WayneCore]

the mark is no permanent, is it? so the mark wont be shut down i guess . . .

[Terroking]

TECHNICALLY the mark is a permanent, that you start the game with, it functions like an untargetable tower. Anyone in the JFF God competitions in chriskang's trainer knows that players can start with permanents and likely even creatures on the field.

[WayneCore]

well technically the mark is not even a card ... therefore the question - can it be a permanent?

[assassim]

It would be easier to program if the end of the turn counts right after your weapon attacks. That way it wouldnt affect quanta producing problems and still neglect the weapons abilities (such as arenic)

[Delreich]

well technically the mark is not even a card ... therefore the question - can it be a permanent?

It is a card, it's just not in your deck (usually).

And the weapon is the second to last permanent to activate, only the mark comes after.

Great idea just a clarification you said you couldn't do anything after the card is played and that immortals were now targetable by spells so I'm assuming that after the card is played you can still play instants. Is that correct?

[tyranim]

its a little too cheap.
scenario
a lot of creatures on your side of the field have effects, you want to wipe out the opponents immortal creatures, you have this card in your hand, what do you do....make your effects useless for a turn and kill your opponents creatures, OR dont....
i choose choice C: use all the effects i can THEN use this card (easy loop hole)
