Psionist | Psion

[Drake_XIV]

No, since Buckler blocks Physical, right?

[moomoose]

its pretty simple, the only shields that interact with psion are mirror shield and jade shield.

[storyteller]

hmm, then does sundial block it? it even stops immaterial creatures? what about Procrastination? Does this effectively have momentum vs everything else? Just because it deal magic damage doesnt mean it isnt attacking? What about Fog and Dusk? those are percentages to simply be missed? How about wings? Is this a ranged attack? I think perhaps a few other shields could affect it. What if you buff it, then does gravity shield work?

Does the reflected damage hit the Psion's owner or the Psion?

It would mostly likely hit the owner.

Basically, think of Psion as having momentum but casting Lightning to penetrate shields; Reflective and Jade Shield redirect Psion's damage back to the enemy, but all other shields are bypassed normally. Sundial affects all attacking creatures equally, and thus, Psion won't attack when one of those are in play.

Sundial prevent creatures from attacking. Psion is a creature.
Psion ignores all shield effects except "Reflection" from Emerald Shield and Reflective Shield.
Reflection causes Psion to attack its controller.
Psion will not be reflected twice even if both players have Reflective Shield.

the psion is in the trainer at the moment, feel free to try it out if you still need clarifications.

I like this card but 6|6 for an aether guy is pretty defence heavy. With fractals this thing could easily be broken. My fractal phase recluse deck is hard to beat and it doesn't have momentum built in and the creatures aren't really buff'd

[Drake_XIV]

The actual card that is to be implemented took a nerf, if I recall correctly.

Fractal Aether is hard to build, is severely nerfed and Psions cost more than Recluses.

Hard to build, yes.  Severely nerfed...I'm not sure.  Psions are much more reliable than recluses against any sort of CC and avoid most relevant shields.  I would rather play a fractal psion deck than a fractal recluse deck in BL.

Nice card, good job !

[Ovadosin]

this is a very interesting card i cant wait to design a deck using it.
