Without a key, it's impossible to get anywhere.

All I have is "Entropy is"
Perception is the source of misunderstanding.

Why, yes. I do have a Mindgate necklace. It's how I ninja everyone.

I think you went from too easy to impossible. I get a seizure for even looking at that thing. :)
Careful BBs, I think giving SG a seizure is a felony in these parts.

Also, agreed on the impossible thing.

It's actually easier than it looks. Think about the descriptions of the elements, when you have to choose one.
Here is the last part, after the semicolon:
They just love to confuse their opponents with luck and probabilities.

Entropy is randomness; it is that thing that makes a glass unfixable once shattered. Entropy elementals deal with disarray and chaotic creatures; they love to confuse their opponent and gamble with luck and probabilities.
Though I'm not sure how that fits into the crossword.

Ooo.. cool! I'll edit my post when I found the answer. Great work! :D

But wait.. This is too hard without any clue. I'm not sure what clue should be given. Maybe tell us whether it's a card name, deck, etc. Or probably one solved word. Also, are those a couple of dots and semicolon? And I hope there's no abbreviations :)
No abbreviations.

Next week's puzzle is a card crossword, and if I use a card with two or more words as an answer, there are NO spaces in between the two words. For example, if I used Black Dradon, the clue would be: It's att|hp stats are 10|5, and it costs 10 :darkness. The answer would then be (in the crossword): BlackDragon.

Hmm.. probably the clue you gave revealed too much.  ;) Here's the answer.

Entropy is randomness - it is what makes a shattered glass un-fixable. Entropy elementals deal with disarray and chaos; they just love to confuse their opponents and gamble with luck and probabilities.


It's not the exact sentence from entropy description and I'm pretty sure the correct spelling is "unfixable", without the hyphen (-). Also, it seems that I can't find enough T's. Maybe I'm wrong, but I'm not going to waste more time to check it. :P

Lol, you should've seen my attempt. I didn't read any of the hints, so... :P
And I thought the first hyphen was like the second one: something separating a word and a suffix.

Great job, for all of you who had got it right. I admit, I might have made that one a bit too hard, but this one should be fine.
There are no spaces in between words, so Black Dragon would be BlackDragon.
Here it is:

Across: Chrysaora, Bone Dragon, Morning Star, Miracle, Otyugh, and Emerald Pillar.
Down: Flying Weapon, Relic, Reverse Time, Maxwells Demon, Basilisk Blood, Lightning, and Ash.Here are the clues:
        Across
        3. Has 0|2 stats, costs 1 water quanta, has the poison ability, and causes poisoning if ingested.
        5. Has 10|5 stats and costs 10 death quanta.
        7. Weapon: deal 7 damages at the end of each turn. Cannot be destroyed or stolen.
        8. Has 10|5 stats and costs 10 darkness quanta.
        10. Heal yourself to maximmum HP minus 1. This Spell consumes all of your light quanta left.
        12. Has 0|3 stats, costs 4 gravity quanta, and has the devour ability.
        13. Generate 1 life quanta at the end of each turn.
        Down
        1. Turn your weapon into a creature.
        2. The remains of what was once a valuable creature or artifact. It is probably still worth a few coins.
        4. Target creature is the first card of the creature owner's deck.
        6. has 3|5 stats and has the Paradox ability.
        8. The target creature gains +0|+20 but cannot attack or use skills for the next 6 turns.
        9. Deal 5 damage to the opponent.
        11. Has 0|7 stats, costs 7 fire quanta, and has the rebirth ability.

Horizontal: chrysaora bonedragon morningstar miracle otyugh emeraldpillar
Vertical: flyingweapon relic reversetime maxwellsdemon basiliskblood lightning ash
C'mon now, that one was too easy. More puzzles like the entropy description one! (But if you quote text, try to quote it exactly. And don't give away the answer with hints too early)
