"I wonder which is better - to be killed by one powerful foe, or an army of insects?

Does split count as a death?6 Brimstone Eaters for 1 Crimson Dragon

:S

This could make a nice offensive combo with RoF/Fire Storm.

Imagine the possibilities- Flying Titan, Armagio, Colossal Dragon, Light Dragon...

However, it could be OP. You could kill any creature with only 9 quanta and two cards.  Then again, aren't Fractal/TU/Great Frog OP?

@avidteen: You can also kill any creature with a permafrost shield/freezes/congeals and shockwaves. Or with fire bolt/lightning/sniping and maxwell's demon again and again, though it might take a while. I tested a deck with owl's eyes and maxwell's demons today, and it can be absolutely ridiculous >.<. I threw in some quints and flying weapons, and my immortal army could kill pretty much anything, though it was very vulnerable to a number of things and took some time to setup.

This also goes hand in hand nicely with Fire Buckler.

@Hyroen:
Split does count as death.
You'd be paying 14 for the dragon-fission combo.

VERY iteresting card IMO. I can already see a firebolt deck using flying titans and fissure to fill field with brimmys and gain SICKENINGLY lots of quantas.

[johannhowitzer]

Flying Titans would yield only 4 creatures with this - it uses the target creature's attack, not health.  I can see maybe flying Long Swords, though, at 3 Brimstones per Sword it seems pretty efficient.

@finkel- Unlike the Owl's Eye/Mawell's Demon combo, this requires only one element.  I suppose it isn't too powerful though; it does have to have two cards.

I guess it would bring a new strategy to the table, which would make gameplay more interesting.  I say this should go to the Crucible.

[johannhowitzer]

It's already in the Crucible.    In fact, Kael moved it almost right after I posted it, since he was calling for more Fire card ideas and I replied to that thread letting him know.

Note that as an offensive spell, you're not actually reducing the enemy's attack right away, in fact you increase it by one if the target creature's attack is odd.  You do however kill any ability the creature might have, plus the Eaters could be easier to deal with (or harder in the case of something like Ruby Dragon).

this has some nice synergy with rage potion
