i have to say that supernova + this it's a bit devastating and annoying...

i suggest you tweak it a bit..
for example consume all quanta of all players except 5 for each element...

Annoying--I can understand.

Devastating?  You would have to get yourself in a position of causing more damage per turn than your opponent and then have the number of these shards in hand that you think you need to be devastating enough.

Perhaps it can add the qualifier that you do not produce quanta this turn.  That way it would require 2 Novas or 2 Entropy Towers plus a Supernova in hand to play back-to-back.

I think quantum is not physical thing and cannot be "destroyed".

consume?  like in fractal or miracle?

That sounds good.

goood for fractal decks? play a bunch of creatures then nuke your quanta so there is no counter strike

Could be.  As long as your damage strategy (creatures or poison) is greater than your opponent at the time you are preventing that from changing.

Also it is near insta-win against bolt spells and Fahrenheit.

To get this card approved for the competition:
-Fix the discrepancies between the card text and the Ability description in your table (the non-upped card text doesn't match ^^; )
-The Element is considered to be 'Other', not 'Neutral'


...this is kind of a weird card, but whatever.

Fix'd.  But the description I had was accurate to what shards do.   

Also everyone knows Neutral sounds better.

So, that means you're voting for it, right?

Good for finishing off stall decks. Extra strong against rainbows, and makes earthquake and trident a lot more useful in game. Nice card.

It may have been 'accurate', but the card text is always greater than our own definitions of what's correct. And yes, I know Neutral sounds better, but unless it gets changed by Zanz, 'Other' is the correct form.
 

So, that means you're voting for it, right?

My vote for your card depends on the fine dangling line of whether or not the store I'm traveling to in the next few hours has Mochi ice cream.
