NAME: Starstorm ELEMENT: Aether COST: 12 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Arena: Players draw an extra card but take 10 damage	NAME: Starstorm ELEMENT: Aether COST: 10 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Arena: Players draw an extra card but take 10 damage

ART: IDEA: skyironsword NOTES: The 10 damage is similar to that of SoSac: It cannot be inverted, reduced, or reflected. With an almost full hand, you will simply draw 1 card. Arena: Destroy this card if another Arena card comes into play on either side SERIES: Arena

This would affect both players, right? What if my hand is full?

[skyironsword]

Then you discard, and draw more cards next turn... What did you think would happen?

[Pineapple]

Super powerful burn effect + best mill effect in the game in-element with one of the best stall cards in the game i.e. Phase Shield? No thank you.

Need clarification, does a player who has 7 cards in the beginning of the turn (draws only 1 card) take the 10 damage? Although this would make it less deadly, it'd also open up a potentially imbalanced combo with the in-element card Silence.

[skyironsword]

They still take 10 damage.

And also, phase shield users still take the damage.

They still take 10 damage.

And also, phase shield users still take the damage.

The point is that Starstorm + Phase Shield + any way to get higher HP than the opponent viz. poison/healing/shield bypass = GG.

[skyironsword]

That's because Phase Shield is overpowered. Not this card.

Did you not catch that this card deals 1/10th of a player's maximum HP at the end of every turn?

[skyironsword]

... to both players.

Oh my god, obviously crimson dragon is worse than this card! It takes away 12% and doesn't hurt yourself!

Yeah, but Crimson Dragon doesn't come with Momentum and can't be quinted for just 2 quanta.

[skyironsword]

Quinting this doesn't prevent this from being destroyed when another arena is played. Which isn't much, but hey, 12 is a lot of counters.

And this hurts yourself. Which averages out to 0 due to dealing damage to both players. While 500 damage to one player is OP, 500 damage to both isn't

Remember you take damage first if you're the one that plays it.

Yeah, you know what I would say about this...

So a card that reduces both players' health to 1 isn't OP in any way, shape, or form?
