The undecided: Equal amount of pillars and pendulums

Do mark cards count as pillars or just an extra quantum source?

Note to self for opposing duo's:
gravity+entropy
earth+air
death+life
time+aether
light+darkness
fire+water

"The baby got back: All creatures with 5+ hp. Gravity shield banned."

Does this mean 5 < HP or 5 ≤ HP ?

I wont be there unfortunatly.

"The baby got back: All creatures with 5+ hp. Gravity shield banned."

This means any creature with 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 hitpoints is banned as a creature card in your deck.
It means that purple dragon is allowed, but forest spirit is banned.
Weapon are still allowed even if you animate them and have less hp then 5, as its not a creature card when you build the deck.
Nymphs tears is also allowed for the same reason, even when it animates a purple nymph with 1 hitpoint.

Thx, that was the relevant part for me. People use/interpret "X+" in different ways, that's why I asked about it.

Btw, what about Shard of Integrity? Is it fully usable regardless of the hp of the created golem? The same applies to Chimera?

I only played 1 tournament, so I am not too familiar... does it start on the clock or 15 minutes before? I mean the 1-11 dice roll.
