ELEMENT:

NAME:
Greater Flailing Wumpus
ELEMENT:
Life
COST:
6 :life
TYPE:
Creature
ATK|HP:
7|8
TEXT:
Tantrum: Damage from this card's attack that is reduced, avoided, or blocked is applied to opposing enemy creature.

ART:
Needs better artwork.
This is an old early rendering I did when learning Bryce7 and Hexagon.
IDEA:
OdinVanguard
NOTES:
"Today is a great day to be alive!"

"They hunted you, they poked and prodded you, they put you in timeout in a 2-bit pseudo 3D dungeon!… Now its time for them to PAY! Use IT!"




A fun twist on CC, shield-counters, and "Field Slot" combat mechanics all rolled into one.

Basically anything that prevents this card from dealing damage to the opponent (short of GP, Freeze, or Stun) will make it angry.

You wouldn't like it when its angry … (sorry just had to make the incredible hulk reference)

On a side note, this card was indeed inspired by both the old "Hunt the Wumpus" game as well as the famous "Thrashing Wumpus" from MtG.

This seemed to be a very nice cross-world adaptation.

The name "Wumpus" has been used a good deal elsewhere, however, so it shouldn't be a copyright problem

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?
If your zombie plan is
kill -9 `ps l | awk '{print $2" "$3" "$9}' | grep "Z" | awk '{printf("%s ",$2)}'`
You might be a unix junky

If Nowhere is Somewhere, and Somewhere is Over there, How can we be Anywhere?

Too strong.
3 attack is 12 with Adrenaline and 6 HP is a very strong protection. If your opponent plays mono Aether and has a Dim Shield and 2 Phase Dragons out, one of this with Adrenaline kills both Phase Dragons in one turn.
(Maybe you don't want the ability to be able to work against immaterial creatures (which would be a mistake imho), but it's the same for any other opposing element)

It won't affect immaterial creatures, so Quint would actually be a good counter.
I do realize that adrenaline would be pretty potent but it is limited in that it only gets to affect a single other enemy per turn (see below).

is the creature chosen randomly?
It will only target the creature in the opposing slot (based on slot priority). If there is nothing there, then nothing happens.

Ah, that's quite a difference then. Good way to balance it!

Comparison to Horned Frog: +1  :life cost for +0/+3, +1  :life cost for the ability. Seems about right.
