Shard Revolution Submissions Thread

Life Trials Submission:

Unupped: Cost: 2; Activate: 0 - All non-entropy abilities cost 1 aditional random quanta. Lasts 1 turn.
Upped: Cost: 3; Activate: 0 - All non-entropy abilities cost 1 addional random quanta; Entropy abilities cost 1 quanta less.  Lasts 1 turn.

• Low cost, but takes 1 more turn to activate, constant upkeep.  More expensive then it looks at first.
• Useful for vanilla decks, entropy decks. [Paradox, Antimatter, Destroy, Dead & Alive]
• Affects all abilities, creatures & permanents.
• Shards stack, cost of activating stacks too. first time it costs 0, always.  Next time it costs # of shards you had with last activate... so chaining is taxing.

It is late here... I wanted to get this up before the evening was over, so no one takes my idea.  Will get my image up tomorrow.

Edit: Changed. Added the image, fixed the multiple typos.[/list]

Trial of Fire entry

Shard of Passion (3) Permanent : "Heal yourself 1 HP per turn. Impassion: (sacrifice card) Target creature is reborn. Fire creatures keep positive effects"
Shard of passion (3) Permanent : "Heal yourself 2 HP per turn. Impassion: (sacrifice card) Target creature is reborn. Fire creatures keep positive effects"

Note: I am a noob at balancing cards. I go with what feels right to me.

Aaaah, I like this one sooooooooooooo much better than my originial attempt (below). Ultimately I wanted to capture the other side of Fire that Phoenix started to grasp at, the rebirthing and healing powers that it can have. Zanzarino stated that he wanted these elemental shards to stack like pillars, so I added the minor healing boost to them, which would then stack with the number of shards in play at the time. But, to counteract that healing, there is a sacrificial ability that can be quite powerful. "reborn" simply means that the card is returned to it's original state. Attack, Health, and Statuses are all reverted to how the card comes into play, basically turning the creature into a daughter creature. However, to make this elemental, Fire creatures retain positive effects. This means, if current attack is higher than base attack, it is not changed. Same goes for health. Negative statuses such as poison, freeze, delay, etc. are also removed. It is a very powerful 1 time effect that I think fits into Fire quite well. What do you think?

Shard of Passion (6) Permanent : "Consume all but quanta. When a creature is played, two are played for twice the cost."
Shard of Passion (6) Permanent : "Consume all but quanta. When a creature is played, two are played for twice the cost. Fire creatures gain +0/+1."

I tried to make this fit my interpretation of how Zanzarino wants these shards to turn out. He said he wanted them to stack like pillars and that each would heavily favor a specific element. How this works is, If a creature is played, let's say Minor Phoenix, as long as you have twice the quanta, or 4 , a second one is played without using a card. It's kind of a card advantage kind of thing. Going on the stackable idea, more would be played for increasing costs but I haven't really worked out how I want that to work yet. While you'd have to have the shards en masse, it you could play Fractix without Fractal with these if you just go up to 7 played for 7x the cost, which is wierd. The +1 def bonus is more of a reason not to decrease cost than anything else, something else could probably fit better there, but I probably can't fit it on the card, so I just went with that. Stacking for that would also increase the bonus as more were played, up to a maximum of +0/+3 more than likely. No reason to make Minor Phoenixes Ragable, though that would be fun

Trial of submission: EDITED

This is not meant to give card advantage with drawing (like time would) but give you an random chance to draw what you might need (a bit less random if your mark is .)
EDIT: thank you for the feedback TStar, I made a mistake on the original upped cost (it should have been 1 xD), but have increase the cost of both so as not to over shadow precognition to reflect your insightful critique.

*ahem*

Announcing the fact that I have changed my submission, for the last time. My first attempt was not my best effort, and with the help of a good friend, I have since put together a much better idea. Take it or leave it, but I like it 1,000% better.

if you cannot currently view the photo please right click on it and it should be viewable in a new tab. The reason for this is that i couldnt get on to image play because of to many reroutes. If this is a problem please let me know.

Notes: This shard would work brilliantly in a stall if you need to stay alive a couple of turns longer to win. It would also help against decks you know will have heavy pc or cc when it is upped.

Note to organizers: I would not like to enter the competition.

Couldn't see them either, but oh, look!

Just had to copy the picture location from the site you tried to make an image from.
