[Official] Mummy | Elite Mummy

[furballdn]

I agree elite mummy needs a buff. Compare with flesh spider.
Mummy is 5|3 for 4 , a pretty good deal, while flesh spider is 3|3 for 3 . Mummy is obviously better.
When both are upped however,
Mummy becomes 5|3 for 3 while flesh recluse is 6|3 for 3 .

In this case, the mummy, which was much better than the spider is worse when both are upgraded. I suggest giving the mummy a boost to either attack or the defense stat.

What Mummy lacks in attack strength, it makes up for in diversity. How many combos do you make with Flesh Recluse, aside from Eclipse? I've never seen a Mito-Recluse deck. :/

Recluses are actually very great creatures as they deal a powerful 6 damage per turn as well as have the web ability. You could easily build a deck containing recluses, poison, and wings. On the other hand, how many decks do you see actually use elite mummy for any purpose? Flesh recluse is basically the same thing as elite mummy, only stronger. If you say that you're using an elite mummy to bring out an elite pharaoh....who really uses such a complicated combo like that? I vote to give the elite mummy 1 extra health to distinguish it from the flesh recluse. This way it can survive a snipe, fire bolt, or rain of fire.

recluses are nice but have in mind that mummy is somewhat resistant to rewind, also having it buffed would make mono death even more powerful that it already is, which I don't think is needd

Flesh Recluse-6/3-3
Mummy-5/3-3
Elite Frog-5/3-2

Mummy having an ability adds 1 to its cost. If it was only 2 cost, then it would be stronger than elite frog, and if it has 6 atk, then it would be better than flesh recluse. The only change I can see it recieving and still staying a little balanced compared to those 2 cards is 4 def instead of 3. That alone would make it much more powerful, and more comparable to elite cockatrice being 5/5 for 3 .

The card itself is balanced though, and this buff would just make it slightly more powerful, so I doubt it will ever be seen.

Combos don't mean other cards should be buffed to be even with them.

This card is balanced imo. Though you may be able to play a card with one more attack for the same amount of , Elite Mummy has a skill unknown to the Flesh Spider. It's still a good creature, and RT it and you get a time card useful to most. No change needed.

Elite Mummies to bring out Elite Pharaohs can serve a couple purposes. A) It costs less quanta and B) It adds more diversity to your deck (brute strength mummies vs. mass amounts of scarabs). Additionaly; if I'm using one for purpose A and not B specifically, and I fear getting attacked with snipe, fire bolt, rain of fire, and other various attacks, I turn the mummy immediately into a pharaoh instead of waiting a turn (for the extra attack). Which brings me to my next point:

Don't use an Elite Mummy if you don't ever plan to turn them into Elite Pharoahs. Use a recluse instead, and stop complaining that a card that you want to use but have no business using isn't good enough. If they wanted another overpowered  card, they'd make one without an ability and use it seperate.

As a person who uses Elite Mummies, I don't see a reason for them to be upgraded. Elite Scarabs are quite uber, and that's good enough for me.

Elite Mummies are resistant to Reverse Time. Use them over Recluses if you expect Reverse Time (you or your opponent).

[Phaser]

Mummies are only resistant to RT if you (or opponent) are using a time, death, and mummy duo. I actually don't really like the mummy's ability since if you are using a mono death, it reduces your damage which can be sometimes a difference of  and  .

It does not take  to use Mummy's ability to combat the draw prevention of Reverse Time.
