As I mentioned in chat.   I think the damage is a bit high.   I still think 2 or 3 damage would be about as high as you would want.  Otherwise it could be very over powered.

Nice card though.

It's a cool idea, and definitely fits the death theme!  (:  However, I also think it looks pretty powerful.  Jinx is right, 4 damage is a lot.

Out of curiosity, would this stack?

@ Unupped:

"It deals 4 damage to its owner"

Who would want that?

It seems logical to me.  This means any CC you play on your opponent gives an extra kick.  You just have to hope that your opponent doesn't have too much CC, or that you can counter it well enough.. it's a risky card, but I can see why it would be used.

It would be better to NOT use it, and keep a potential 4 HP instead of losing 4HP and 4 :death

good question... think i could make it either stackable but lower damage, or keep it at 4 damage and unstackable.

might go with the first option.

vulture would be worth it for the sustained damage.

also, is the 4 damage physical (shields relevant) or spell (shields ignored)?

This is not a spell. Therefore, it goes through shields. Think of voodoo doll damage mechanics.

Unstable Gas's effect is not a spell, yet it is reflected by shields that reflect. How would this be affected by such shields?
