[Official] Ash Eater | Brimstone Eater

[Higurashi]

Giving the unupped one quanta production and buffing the upped one's attack would be optimal and also bring it in line with the rest of the cards. It's actually kind of odd why it's not already like that.

The upped version would even be viable with fractal+ruby. Would be fun.

I'd also agree with majofa's suggestion, consider adding a poll?

[CuCN]

Add a poll for the ash eater too?

What about made Ash Eater a 1/1 with production (like Dragonfly), and leave Brimstone as it is?

[dawn to dusk]

brimstone could have +1 health rather than anything else... for the main reason being that damsel is offense, gemfinder is defense so brimstone would mix with +1 cost

But fire is the element that has low health compared to attack. I agree that 3-1 upped and 1-1 un upped is a good add, and both with fiery.

I personally believe every color should have a 0 cost quantum generating creature.  Brimstone eater should become a 0 cost creature and retain its 2/1 status. 

I do not believe that this will be a balance issue because Damselfly is already a 2/1 costless creature.  It is also arguable that Damselfly would still be more powerful due to Shard of Freedom.

Just thought I would throw this out there, but why not make it a 1  cost instead of 1    or costless?
A colorless cost is a slightly weaker reduction than making it costless. That would help keep pace with the need to offset fire's innate advantages, yet it would still help provide versatility by allowing non-fire decks access to fire quanta.

I do agree that ash eater could use the production bump. I've always kind of wondered why it doesn't have that ability.

I like this idea. So I've added an option for it.

Edit: somehow I can't edit vote. Is this supposed to happen?

I agree with this idea.  I think every element should have a quanta generating creature that can be splashed in other decks.  Making an upped Brimstone Eater cost  1 would accomplish this goal nicely for the fire element.

If this change is added, it might also be a good idea to raise Brimstone Eater's stats to 3/1.  This would make it slightly more powerful than Damselfly for 1  more cost.  It would also keep the  theme of high attack low defense creatures.
