IDEA:

NOTES:
Because of a clearing of vanilla creatures from the Crucible, this card has been fitted with a new ability.
Massive orb is a "click the card to rage" card. It looks weak, but with some healing or plate armor, it can quickly transform itself into a menace.
Gravity orb is a rage-in-a-box utility card. It has no attack and very high HP, justifying the high cost.
With SoR, multiple use skills lose that attribute. Same for Gravity assist.
SERIES:
My 3 game-modification principles:
1. If it ain't broke, don't wreck it.
2. Simple fixes for simple problems.
3. Remember to fill in the holes.

It's a vanilla creature. it is supposed to look somewhat UP. I rather like it. You don't see too many Vanilla creatures around in CIA section, it's nice to see one and a good one.

It's a vanilla creature. it is supposed to look somewhat UP. I rather like it. You don't see too many Vanilla creatures around in CIA section, it's nice to see one and a good one.
There are a few reasons for this phenomena.
1) Most members believe Zanz has the mental capacity to have already though of all the possible vanilla creatures (at least mechanically).
2) A significant minority of members are bored with vanilla creatures.
3) It becomes hard to make a vanilla creature that has not been made before.

That said, semivanilla creatures (ones with an ability that does not alter the balance of the card) do show up occasionally by avoiding reasons 1 & 3.

At a first glance I thought it seemed silly, but the more I look at it, the more I like it.
I've always felt it odd that there weren't more vanilaa creatures in card design.
My only concern was a comparison to Armagio, though it's only very minor.

All in all, I think it's a decent idea.

Gravity-styled vanilla creature. Absolutely love it.
PVE shouldn't be all about copying a deck code and converting time into electrum, score, and potentially rares.
If the only way to derive fun from a game is its PVP content, then non-hardcore players a.k.a. the mass are alienated from the hardcore community.

I'd like to see the production ability on the unupgraded as well since grav. is lacking in that area right now. I like it though. Gives some cheap catapult or accelerate fodder without needing to go to a third element... Fractal-pult is on the way.
Whether the glass is half full or half empty is a moot point. It is always filled to the brim. It is only a matter of by what. The real question is: What fills you?

momoose, your card adn this serve two entirely different purposes.
Comparing the two serves no purpose.
Yous is an anti stealth, this is... vanilla creature designed for gravity as a cheap target for other abilities.
