Fill your hand with copies of the target creature's card. All the remaining aether quanta is consumed.

it says creature but AI used it on my flying dagger (it IS technicaly counted as a creature when flying) but i heard mistosis doesn't work on animated weapons so i just post this to ask if fractal should be able to or not?

fractalling an animated weapon is much less useful, as you need an AW for each copy you get, which just usually results in a clogged hand. (Nightmaring an animated weapon is also fun)

i know :p i nightmared daggers a lot with my new mono-darkness, but i figured fractal would be a bit OP ish, didn't considder that u needed AW :p

And that's why cards that can animate weapons repeatedly have been problematic to design. Fractal is pretty hindering when it comes to card design and creatures (especially creature abilities).

i get a precognition of someone yelling something like this: "nerft fractal !!!i!!"

Yeah, that happens even though it's been nerfed quite a bit over time. At first it didn't even consume all . Even with its nerfs I still find it the most powerful card in the game to have a single copy of.

However, nowadays most people actually agree a change, not so much a nerf, would be better for card design. It's harder to come up with one that doesn't affect the meta too much than it is to just slap a passive on your designed creature that makes it un-Fractal-able though. Clumsy, but it's close at hand.

i think fractal is quite okay, only nerf i could think of is not letting it fill the hand to 8 cards

Non-stackability of the ability is a big fractal-repeller in itself.

well, letting it fill the hand only for lets say 5 cards will still make it imposible to use 2 or more since it drains all quanta

Posting THIS LINK because I feel it's good.

I feel like there should be a slogan or someting... "Fractal, imbalancing otherwise good ideas, repeatedly!"
