I have love it in the competition, but wouldn't make more sense if the ability could be used multiple times per turn like leaf dragon?

hmmm maybe... i'll throw up a poll.

[Chapuz]

powerful but expensive, I like it. I would say only once per turn.

[Hexalan]

Seems op, like hope, but mashed down into a single card that can replicate itself.

the competition i made this for was to compress an entire deck strategy into one card, i chose RoL/Hope.  The result is this.  At 4 for a 1|1 i think the powerful effect is still balanced.

Seems like it would overshadow RoL Hope a bit too much... Why not have each one of these absorb a fixed amount of damage per turn each turn, but from every type, not just physical.

Maybe something like:
"Absorbs 2 damage to you from any source each turn.
: Add a copy of this card to your hand"

seems a bit on the weak side... also, i'd have to retheme the card.  with this, each creature essentially has the sun in their eyes making it harder to strike effectively.  your idea is more fitted for an earth or gravity card IMHO.

Having just read this quote, I realise now why you made this card. Here's what I wrote before reading the whole thread...

Isn't it kind of pointless? It does the same thing as Hope and a pile of RoL duo'd with Aether. I mean, it kind of already exists? This isn't more expensive but more powerful, it's the total reverse - 2 Aether for one card instead of 10 Aether for 5.

So... I can see why you won the competition!

I still don't like the card much though :p
