NAME: Orrery ELEMENT: Gravity COST: 5 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Generates for every element represented on the field.	NAME: Planetarium ELEMENT: Gravity COST: 4 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Generates for every element represented on the field.

ART: Wikimedia Commons IDEA: KrackoCloud NOTES: A represented element is any element that has a card or mark of its type in play. If two mono-Gravs go against each other, this will generate 1 per turn. So usually, it generates 2 quanta. Goes great with or against any multi-element deck. SERIES:

Spoiler for Hidden:

NAME: Orrery ELEMENT: Gravity COST: 4 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: : Revolution Generate 1 quanta of every non-Gravity element represented on the field.	NAME: Planetarium ELEMENT: Gravity COST: 3 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: : Revolution Generate 1 quanta of every non-Gravity element represented on the field.

ART: Wikimedia Commons IDEA: KrackoCloud NOTES: Earlier idea gave your pillars and pendulums x% chance to generate an extra quanta. This revision is still very duo+ oriented, but much more reliable in terms of quanta generation. SERIES:

I basically like it, but in general, a random % chance isn't what most people wish for. Wouldn't it be possible to somehow have this card with a non-random effect?

[Chapuz]

Make them alternatively generate quanta of their opposite element, that's a good idea for making Trios.

Make them alternatively generate quanta of their opposite element, that's a good idea for making Trios.

Could you explain that?

Anyway, here's some other ideas:
-" : Generate 1 quanta of every element represented on the field. Does not generate ." This would work but it doesn't generate ! Is that even worth it? Might be good for rainbows though.
-"Each turn, generates 1 quanta for any one element represented on the field." Rainbow again, but more pillar-like, and can actually generate  . But doesn't feel particularly special.
-"Heal 1HP for every pillar or pendulum you own at the end of your turn." The original idea, but not very... original. It's defensive, which is apt for Gravity, but I'd prefer quanta generation.

Of those three you just listed, I think the first is the most fitting. As for what Chapuz was referring to - the elemental pairs.
There are six:  , , , , ,

That's what I figured... But the wording is what's confusing me more, that's all.

Does "alternatively" mean "here's another idea," or does it mean "turn pillars into pendulums"? Is "them" referring to pillars and pendulums, or Orrery cards?

Working with opposite elements could be pretty cool. Not sure if I'd run with it for this particular card though.

Card revised.
I'm considering lowering the initial cost but hiking Revolution's up to 2 .

[krackocloud]

Quanta generation for other elements may not be the greatest use, but I want to make an Orrery card! D:

Can anyone actually think of legitimate applications for this card? Otherwise I'll probably completely rework it.

[nensuru]

Maybe make it affect the hand too

If the quanta generated match the element of the card this card could have some cool uses like generating fire quanta from a rage pot on the hand to feed a graviton fire eater, earth quanta from a bb, life quanta from adrenaline, then use it all on a oty and make the combo etc etc

It could also be a good counter to ghostmare

[krackocloud]

New version created. Tell me which one you prefer.

[Zaealix]

I like this version: gives  a bit more of a 'anti-rainbow' feel to it, and even without it, it will pay back it's quanta cost in 5 turns.

[Nox]

I like this card a lot

I feel like it's a good card, with a good price for its ability.

I'd use it.
