Soul Catcher w/ Nymph mechanics [not a bug] https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=18746.msg238773#msg238773

Soul Catcher is a pillar.  Soul Catcher cannot be targeted by Nymph mechanics.  Possibly intended, but very unusual to be classified as a tower but immune in this way.  seems only classified as pillar to allow quakes?

would appreciate developer/designer feedback to confirm working as intended

in before wall of people that didnt design or code the card acting like experts of answer to question
Zombie0 gives 110 percent whenever he's in the arena. He's a team player who delivers both offensively and defensively. He has no idea what a Quantum is.

Soul Catcher is not a pillar. Pillars have the word "pillar" in their name. Think of soul Catcher as a permanent that just happens to cost 0 :death (in a similar way, Ball Lightning is not a spell but a creature).

Upped sundial ftw? :D
sundial is not a pillar but costs 0 quantum
Soul Catcher has a very different effect but the reasoning is the same
it is not stacked and can not be targeted by pillar only attacks therefore it is not a pillar :D

fair enough.  towers and pendulums arent called "pillar", but its just assumed they are i suppose.  misread the permanent icon for a tower icon, though it looks really really similar to...a pillar.  is it worth identifying the "pillars" as different than the "permanents"?  the tutorial vaguely mentions the kinds of permanents as "equipment, quantum sources, etc...".  a mark is a "permanent", does that mean you can destroy it?  no.  while my original question is completely pwned and useless now, maybe a clarification and identification of each type of permanent is necessary in general.  (yes i realize that rare and silly "mark cards" exist from the beginning of the game, and that they stack as a targetless quantum source on top of the regular mark)
