I just remembered how an immaterial Morning Glory can be targeted by Flying Weapon...

I think (I'm not 100% though) it targets the slot, not the weapon. Sky Blitz targets creatures.

I'll give you that one... XD
But how about Chimera?

Sky Blitz does not target immaterial creatures.
Chimera absorbs immaterial creatures.
Don't ask me why.

It targets your entire field, rather than individual cards, in the same way as animate weapon.

I don't know why Sky Blitz and Chimera are coded differently, but they are.

[Higurashi]

Neither Chimera nor Animate target anything. They destroy, then play out. Something that -does- target is Blitz, which you can see when trying to Blitz my lovely Phase Dragons. *sadface*

Arise dead thread!


I dislike creating a new topic just to discuss this and since it is really relevant to the OP, I figure "necro-ing" this thread wouldn't hurt.

With the addition of Shard of Patience, it makes me wonder why Sky Blitz doesn't affect quinted creatures while SoP does. Both cards are spells and doesn't require any specific target. But most importantly, if Sky Blitz works with quinted creatures, how will this affect the game? I don't think it will be too OP considering that Sky Blitz is most useful in OTK decks which doesn't really need any creature protection. 

To be honest, I don't really mind if it stays the same. I'm just slightly bothered that the interaction between these two cards are different.


On a different note, is it possible that zanz forgot about this behaviour when coding SoP? >_<

Comparing SoP and Sky Blitz is like comparing a Graboid to a fate egg, they're both similar skilled but they're completely different.

SoP acts more like a sundial but instead of drawing a card, adds 1 attack to everything. Instead of targeting creatures it just affects the entire of the field, much like eclipse. Sky blitz however is a targeting spell, more similar to an inverse of rain of fire. If you were to make sky blitz target everything, you'd have to make rain of fire etc target everything also, removing the entire point of having quintessence in the first place.
