My fourth submission from the Tank Collection, my first card series. Arts were made by blue pen, that's why all images share a purplish color.

NAME: Drill Tank ELEMENT: Earth COST: 6 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 4 | 6 TEXT: Enters play burrowed. Drill: unburrow and attack target creature. Next turn its skill will be: burrow.	NAME: Drill Tank ELEMENT: Earth COST: 6 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 4 | 7 TEXT: Enters play burrowed. Drill: unburrow and attack target creature. Next turn its skill will be: burrow.

ART: Submachine IDEA: Submachine NOTES: The Earth elementals have the advantage of forming metal to create even the shape of a massive drill. Having a HP of 6|13 had a reason. This reason is surviving Rage Potion|Rage Elixir. When Drill Tank is burrowed, it has only an attack power of 2. When Drill is activated, it attacks it's target with its full attack power. Drill Tank has an incredible synergy with . Imagine a deck with Lava Golems, Gnome Gemfinders, Immolations, Drill Tanks and Rage Potions. Note: Drill Tank can only attack creatures with its Drill ability. Drill costs nothing according to the skill: unburrow. Yet!!! SERIES: The Tank Collection

Original Tank Idea:

Great art again, reminiscent of Dig in pokemon.
13 health seems a bit much for such a powerful mechanic, though..

I know it's supposed to work with rage potion, but a 17|1 drill tank might get a bit ridiculous... though it is every other turn, so meh.

16|1 to be correct. A pegasus+blessing+blessing combo can be much more powerful for nearly the same cost.

The origin of the 13 HP was born from an idea, but if I consider lowering it, I don't know how many it should be. Maybe 7, 9 or 11, I'll think about it.

Upgraded card changed. HP is now 9.

[skyironsword]

Why 9? Seems a bit random. I was expecting 7.

[Pyrodinium]

I agree with 7 or even lower HP. The burrowing  cards such as Antlion and Shrieker have lower hp compared to their non-burrowing brothers such as the Hematite Golem and the Wardens so the Drill Tank could follow suit.

It's true that I was thinking about changing it to 7, but it looked low to me compared to it's former base HP. So I raised it by 2.
But Pyrodinium makes a point about burrowing. Comparing to Elite Antlion, this is what I thinked for the upgraded:

^ So it won't work with Rage Elixir anymore? You have to use the unupped?

[Submachine]

Sorry, I mixed it up a little. OP has been changed to 4|7. Is it balanced now?

[OdinVanguard]

The text on the card is very confusing... Made sense after reading the OP, but players won't have that to go from.

Other than that I love the card.

DEATH FROM BELOW FTW!

A bit clearified wording version:
