Advanced Spells - Spells that consume all quanta of an element after use

[Bloodshadow]

Right now, I'm trying to make a set of spells that, like Miracle and Fractal, consume all your quanta of a certain element after use. Here are the cards I have so far:

This card is inspired by markilleruk in the following thread:
http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,5659.0.html



Please note that I do not want suggestions on the cards or elements above, since those cards are already finished.


Here are some ideas I have:

Cauterize: 18 | 16
Reduce your opponent's max HP by 20%.

Equilibrium: 15 | 12
Take the average of your HP and your opponent's HP. Both of your HPs are set to that value.

Nature's Calling: 11 | 9
Summon three random creatures. They are all 3/3 and have no abilities.
For example, if it summons a Crimson Dragon, a Spark, and an Armagio, they would all be 3/3.

Ice Age: 15 | 12
Your opponent cannot summon or generate any creatures for 3 turns.
Think of this as "freezing your opponent's field".

Adamantine: 12 | 10
You take 75% damage from all sources. This effect is permanent until you're hit by spell damage.
After you cast this, a little shield icon appears beside your HP bar.


And here are elements that I either have no ideas, or very vague ideas:

  Some sort of extra-attack spell?

  Some sort of spell that kills a lot of creatures?

I don't really want spells that "destroy all permanents", "give all creatures adrenaline", or anything along that like. I don't know why, but those ideas sound... boring... to me.

Suggestions?

I like the idea of Equilibrium, don't like Menagerie, and Cauterize seems okay...

Here's my idea:

NAME: Xenocide ELEMENT: Death COST: 13  TYPE: Spell ATT/HP: N/A ABILITY: Consumes all your  . Kills all creatures with the same name of your target. Continues to kill for 4 turns. .

As an idea for the Life Advanced Spell, I was thinking something like

Restoration: Removes all negative effects, completely heals and adds +0/+2 permanently to all of your creatures. All creatures without a skill gain "Growth" as their skill.

or.

Gaia: Summon "Gaia", whose stats are (X/X), where X is 1/2 your life quanta before the spell.
Passive Ability: All creatures regenerate 1 health per turn.
Ability:  Nature Spirit. Raises all creatures stats +1/+1. (Or maybe only life creatures if thats OP).

I'll make the other one tomorrow.

Read my original post.

I don't really want spells that "destroy all permanents", "give all creatures adrenaline", or anything along that like. I don't know why, but those ideas sound... boring... to me.

Yeah... Things like "mutate all creatures", "give +0/+2 to all creatures", "protect all permanents", I deliberately try to avoid. They seem very boring, and... what's the word for it? Situational? I want something more interesting.

As for Xenocide, I don't think a spell can last for more than 1 turn, otherwise it would become a permanent like Sundial or Phase Shield.

EDIT: After rethinking about it, Menagerie seems very overpowered. If you have 6 in your deck, you can create an entire fieldful of 23 creatures! A deck with 18 pillars, 6 Menagerie, and 6 Bonds would be devastating.

I'm going to rename it Nature's Calling, and make it summon three random 3/3 creatures with no abilities. Those creatures can be anything, but they would all have the same stats; for example, it might summon a Crimson Dragon, a Spark, and an Armagio, but they would all be 3/3 and have no abilities.

I like the equilibrim idea.  Very Entropy like.

Two new ideas:

Ice Age: 15 | 12
Your opponent cannot summon or generate any creatures for 3 turns.
Think of this as "freezing your opponent's field".

Adamantine: 12 | 10
You take 75% damage from all sources. This effect is permanent until you're hit by spell damage.
After you cast this, a little shield icon appears beside your HP bar.

Adamantine is not a pseudo-permanent like Sundial, because it is like a buff to yourself instead of a creature. It stays in play until a spell hits you, like Fire Bolt; this applies to everything that can be reflected by Mirror Shield. Combine Jade Shield with Adamantine, and you've got an indestructible shield that blocks 2 damage then 25% damage from all sources.

Also, I now see the synergy between Nature's Calling and Reverse Time. If Nature's Calling summons a fake Crimson Dragon, if you rewind it, it will turn into a REAL Crimson Dragon.
