Hello whoever reads these posts!

So I have an idea for a card that would occupy a shield or weapon slot on your opponents side of the field for (2?) turns. This would be immaterial. It cannot destroy a weapon or shield, only occupy an empty slot.

Need suggestions on names, cost and element before i post it in the smithy or whatever :P

Let me know if this has been done before and what you think about!

Thanks

It has not been done before. However I worry that it might be rarely useful.

If you played it and it went into your opponent's equipment slot, it'd replace it, being like deflag.

It could be like this:

Occupy target shield or weapon slot for 3 turns. If the slot is already occupied, return the shield or weapon to your opponent's hand. If this card is removed from the field, the owner loses 10 HP.

Sounds more useful.

Well I don't want your opponent to play a shield to destroy it. Is there any mechanic like that?

Can you freeze a shield slot? and what would that do?

not yet. It would probably neutralize the slot for 3 turns

Simply freezing or delaying a shield or weapon slot for X turns would do almost the same thing.  The only difference would be that the player could still play a new weapon or shield to replace it.  However, it would still be frozen/delayed, since that's what currently happens if your weapon is frozen/delayed and you play a new one.

Okay, that would work.

Freeze target weapon or shield slot for X (3?) turns. Works for me. Time to discuss cost?

I like the idea of a slot occupier.  I don't even think it has to be for a set number of turns, though that'd mean only deflag, BE, and SoF could remove it.  You could choose to work it that it can only be played if the slot is currently open.  Something like:

Broken Shield: Occupies opponent's shield slot.

I'm pretty sure it is not what you think it is. Btw you are free to use and modify my suggestion as you want in order to make an awesome card idea. The image however, might be changed as I didn't really check the licence.
