Graviton Mercenary
Defender:
Lower the Hp level that can pass through Gravity Shield for additional Mercenaries.

# of Mercs
1 Merc
2 Mercs
4 Mercs
6 Mercs
9 Mercs
12 Mercs
Gravity Shield
more than 5 Hp's
more than 4 Hp's
more than 3 Hp's
more than 2 Hp's
more than 1 Hp's
Safe

Too selective.  A card only being useful for one synergy and maybe having some use otherwise *cough Nightmare cough* is rather idiotic.  Just saying but my idea is simple and does not have the issue of RT weakness.
Rule #1: The Captain is never wrong.  Rule #2: If the Captain is wrong, refer to Rule #1.

Ill reiterate. The simplest, and I think the best change to this card, is to increase its Hp,so it can take a rage potion or elixer. This makes it tougher, and gives it far more synergy, especially with the graviton firemaster, this you could run a more balanced and diverse fire gravity combo

Now that a discard pile has been confirmed in the making, "Restore with 0 ATK and full HP a creature destroyed by your opponent."

I don't see how else salvagers will be able to work ._.
If it wasn't obvious, it was a suggestion, btw.

It is going to choose a random card that was destroyed, no need for a discard pile...

That means there is no need to let the players look through the discard pile, but it still needs some way of tracking what cards have been destroyed this game. Many people would consider any such mechanism to be a sort of discard pile, even if it has no other features.

No one except Zanz knows how Salvs are going to work, so I think it's safe to say that you shouldn't act like you know you're right yet.

Either or the wording of the "salvaging" ability strongly implies that any similarly-worded effects/abilities are feasible to code, not generally or specifically back-from-the-grave abilities.

Salvage is now out in the trainer as far as I can see.

The first permanent destroyed each turn is returned to your hand instead. Subsequent salvages restore your second, third, etc... permanent.

Quote
Current Stats:
1 :gravity | 1 :gravity
1 | 5 / 2 | 5
Salvage to hand
Honestly, the Salvager seems more cost-efficient than the Mercenary. I think any indication of a Mercenary buff would be welcome at this point.
