I was going to say OP, but after thinking about it a bit, this card just gains basically +1|+1 per turn. Which isn't that bad. Seems quite balanced. Although, why is this ? This mechanic seems like .

[Drake_XIV]

Yeah, but I was thinking about it more as a star.  As time goes on, it grows, right?  And eventually it explodes.
And I can't really justify a star as a    creature.

Speaking of exploding, would it be OP if if also generated a Nova/Supernova, respectively?

Then why did you name it Astral Wyrm?

But then that's not a wyrm is it? A wyrm is a dragonian creature. Not a star. You probably want to call it a star.

Not really sure about OPness, but you saying it's a star that can explode and generate spells makes me think of a lot of other times this idea has been used.

[Drake_XIV]

Yeah, the Nova generation does sound overdone.

Seems interesting, though, imo, the name and the mechanic doesn't fit light as well

[Drake_XIV]

Okay, changed to a more fitting ability.

[furballdn]

+1|+1 for each creature with light? Doesn't this make a combo with fractal/rol way OP?

[Drake_XIV]

But you still need to be able to set that up.  And the buff is easily nulled by mass CC.

[n00b]

Imo, this is too overpowered... Technically, these suckers can get up to 43 attack (from 41 light-emitting creatures)

Again, that still needs to be set up.  And the only time it will get up there is if both players are running RoL/Hope.

If that's still too OP, what if it had a fixed health so it can be more prone to CC.
