Fire Trap | Explosive Trap

NAME:
Fire Trap
ELEMENT:
Fire
COST:
1 :fire
TYPE:
Permanent
ATK|HP:
ABILITY:
Each attacking creature has a 20% chance of taking 10 damage. Being set off destroys fire trap
NAME:
Explosive Trap
ELEMENT:
Fire
COST:
1 :fire
TYPE:
Permanent
ATK|HP:
ABILITY:
Each attacking creature has a 20% chance of taking 15 damage. Being set off destroys explosive trap
ART:
http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/images/10.gif
IDEA:
ratcharmer
NOTES:
Note that being destroyed when it goes off means only 1 creature can be affected by each trap.
Creatures are evaluated in the order they attack, thus it is possible to protect an important creature if you can get it to attack last.
Although this permanent is not a shield, it is treated as one with regards to immortality, momentum etc.
SERIES:
I'm suggesting a lot of traps today. Let me know what you think.

The current art is temporary.

OP. 15 damage for one quanta is way too much. I understand you don't get to target but this would kill every existing creature in the game short of armagio, massive dragon and a flying titan.

Shockwave does 4 damage and only kills frozen creatures. Most people agree that a card that automatically kills any creature is OP.

I think you should lower the damage quite a bit, though i kind of like the idea. Maybe like 5 and 7 damage or something...

5 or 7 damage is incredibly weak. Lightning can do 5 damage for 1 quanta and it's targeted. Also, not only is this not targeted, there's no guarantee that it will ever go off. Also anything with momentum is completely immune to this card.

Making the damage that low would make this card useless compared to creature control spells. And you pointed out yourself 3 different unbuffed creatures that could take the hit-so it's clearly not an instant kill.

CURATOR COMMENT

To get to the Crucible:

- Fill the element in the table in words ie "Fire"
- Match the text in the table to exactly that of the card image.

The card image just disappeared and I'm getting a 404 error whenever I try to put it back up.

Is anyone else having this problem?

I'm having issues as well. It's like imageplay.net just got shut down or something. :(

Could you expand on why you believe it's underpowered?

If the poll is to be trusted, right now most people think it's balanced, with several people thinking it's OP.

You're the only one so far to tell me it's UP . . .
