Shard of Wisdom | Shard of Wisdom

[Chapuz]

My only problem with this shard is that it seems like there's just not enough use for it outside of an (or at least -tainted) deck. I feel like it should be "target creature deals spell damage and if it is immaterial gains +4/+0." That wouldn't change the effect on Aether much, but would give it SOME use to other elements.

Anubis + SoR + SoW + Mirror shield.

I agree it would be better, but I bet there are going to be suppa decks, like Liquid Antimatter 3.0 (Liquid shadow, antimatter + reflective damage for the not antimattered creatures)

My "Elite Phase Dragons" just got that much more bad axx. 8)

Feels to me like the spell damage part should be generalized to any creature, while the stat gain is for immaterial creatures, or even result in reduced stats for material cratures so it isn't a simple Momentum card. This would be a buff to reflectivity to have this card be more versatile, not to mention confining it to a requirement that is found only with one element, and a rare mutation, really gives the shard a low rating compared to other shards.

Cool, phase dragons now need not fear gravity shields, and the attack boost is equivalent to that of an extra immortal, so I guess this could replace the immortals in mono aether. The only problem being this is a rare

One of the problems I find with the other shards is that they don't support their respective elements enough.  Shards shouldn't be able to be included in any old rainbow, sose excluded.  SoW can't work without aether unless it's an SoR'd anubis or a Seraph.  This is how the shards should be, not this SoF crap that can be put in any rainbow in exchange for explosions.

I don't even use "Immortal" I just use a Mark of and a few "Deflagration."

Works better in my opinion.

That requires an off mark, and spaces in your deck to be filled for deflags.

Say what you wan't but I am perfectly happy with my 35-card "Aetherofuze" Deck.

Yo chill dude.

Anyways using deflags or SoW both have their pros and cons. While SoW not only allows phase dragons to bypass pesky shields, they also give a neat attack boost, which deflags dont provide. However you are completely screwed against reflective shields, which while can be played around with by not using SoW, it results in dead cards in your deck.

On the other hand, there would be no problem against most shields with deflags, and it also has the added bonus of removing troublesome weapons such as pulverizer.

I havent actually tried out the card yet, but I suppose it will be a matter of preferance, and all's good as long as you are happy with what you are using

My thoughts exactly.  Particularly in SoBe and SoF, there aren't really strong ties with Shards' Elements.  SoW is one that actually tries to incorporate some affinity while maintaining its Other status.

It's actually the least "other" out of all the other cards. As it is, it can only be used if you have creatures, or are using quints. It can also be used as a counter against immaterial with reflective shields, but that's it. Outside of that, it's useless.

IMO, how a shard should be.  And don't forget seraph
