Love it!!

I think the upped might need to cost a little more though, perhaps 4 :rainbow?
Blocking 2 damage is rarely seen and really hurts lots of decks, and for 3 :rainbow?
I must protest.

Yeah, we debated shortly on the balance of the upped version, called Tower Shield.

[01:53:52] zanzarino: http://www.elementsthegame.com/development.html
[01:53:54] zanzarino: ^ Updated
[01:54:11] Theonlyrealbeef: Common shield!
[01:54:16] QuantumT: i guess a vanilla shield really was called for
[01:54:20] Higurashi: Hah.
[01:54:21] vinvick3714: Nice Zanz! Thank you!
[01:54:22] Dramore: sweet
[01:54:24] QuantumT: for the early game
[01:54:25] XxDevilxX: Shield! lolz
[01:54:32] Theonlyrealbeef: Nice addition to elements that lack this :)
[01:54:42] Kakerlakee: omgomgomg ZANZ talked!!!! weeee!!! *faints*
[01:54:50] Higurashi: I'm hoping it turns into Tower Shield or something epic like that.

[01:55:05] zanzarino: Upped is tower shield blocks 2 damage

[01:55:16] Higurashi: Oh god.

[01:55:43] Higurashi: I'm using Mindgate too much..

After a short discussion on balance, he ended with:

[02:01:47] zanzarino: Anyway... back tpo working... balance will come later

So don't worry. :>

Yeah this seems pretty cheap for what it does. I think 3 :rainbow | 5 :rainbow would be good, but it's hard to tell without playtesting.

Wow. Dunno if this is needed, nor if I like the idea, but I definetly support it... I'm like confused. I guess I thought Zanz won't ever want to do such an idea.

I guess balance is needed, indeed. I mean, 2 block is too much to be worth 3  :rainbow (look at titanium shield)

Not inspired from another idea.

That said, ooooo - generic shields. >.>

This kindof undermine titanium/diamond shield. Earth has to pay so much more quanta for the one extra block :/

I agree. I kind of think that both shields, the unupgraded and upgraded version, should only block one damage.

THAT^, or making the shield drain 1 or 2 random quanta per turn as a setback. Reason? This can be used in ANY decks, so that's a major nerf to certain creatures, as said already. Mono/Duo/Trio decks will now gain a big step in power, so that quanta draining should balance it out a little.
Tasted the world, seen more than enough.
