NOTES:
In every game, you want to make a deck that is capable of handling multiple situations.  In Elements, that is rather hard to do because your deck space is so limited.  Packing just one purify in case you encounter a poison (or worse a Shard of Sacrifice) deck is not sufficient.  Packing only one mirror shield against a psion deck might work, but it will come at the expense of more generally useful shields.  I have pretty notoriously bad luck, so I made this card to help draws along.  Is your deck a duo and you just aren't drawing your other pillars?  This will help.  Does your opponent have a huge field but only 5 HP, and you are just praying for your lightning?  This will help.  Does the effect rely on the A.I. being smart enough to give you what you need?  Yes it does, that's part of the balance of it all.

Just relying on my frequent bad luck and my avatar was not enough to make this card represent me, and since one of my other submissions for this contest focused ont he first part of my name, I made this card represent the second part.  At 12 cost 3 | 4 would need one heck of a powerful effect though, and even being that powerful, it too easy for it to die, so I went and gave it immaterial.  That helps make it stick around, and helps better represent the character it is based on, couldn't be removed from the duel until it was over, what with it not being a card ability and being magic the duelist was using.

There really isn't any way for the game to decide what is most beneficial to you. A possible way would to perhaps see the next 3 cards in your deck, then rearrange them in the order you want.

Difficult, but not impossible.  Basically, I imagine the AI going through your deck it much the same way it goes through the AI player's hand and assigning each card a score, and then giving you the card with the highest score.
