NAME:
Shard
ELEMENT:
Other
COST:
1
TYPE:
Spell
ATK|HP:
ABILITY:
It looks like a crystal shard. It seems to be useless, but it might be upgradable.
NAME:
Shard of Curiosity
ELEMENT:
Other
COST:
3
TYPE:
Spell
ATK|HP:
ABILITY:
Receive a random card from your opponent's hand.
ART:
Zanzarino
IDEA:
Iblis
NOTES:
For the Shard Madness competition.
Your opponent does not lose the copied card from their hand.
SERIES:
N/A
All shards currently cost 3, so I wanted to keep to that, so when suggesting any balance changes, please keep that in mind :)

EDIT: Fixed for curator comments, also changed the shard idea to be unlike Mind Gate, but still fit with Curiosity.

CURATOR COMMENT
To get this card approved for the competition:
-Leave the Atk|HP section of the table blank if the card is not a creature
-Add the description of the non-upgraded shard to the Ability section of the non-upped table
-Fix the discrepancies between your card text and the Ability section for the upgraded part of your table


Don't you think this card is stealing Mind Gate's ability for 3 times the effectiveness, speed, and potential surprise factor when you use their cards against them?

I tried to make it un-Mind Gate-y by making it a spell and work for your opponent as well, but I guess that just makes it like a mixture of Nightmare and Mind Gate.

Changed the idea to something that hasn't been done before.

CURATOR COMMENT
-You still have a very minor mistake on your non-upped card Ability description (fix the punctuation discrepancy)

This version is a little bit more interesting, and combines with Precognition (if you see your opponent's hand before using this shard, you can choose whether to save it or use it to (hopefully) get a card you really want from their hand...).

It's a neat idea, but I'm noting that you're using up a card in order to get a card.

What are you seeing this card as being used for?

About all I could see doing with it was maybe putting 1 in a mindgate deck in case your opponent draws all of a key card early in the game so you can't get a copy of it with mindgate.

Very minor fix made :)

Like all shards :)

What if I don't want to splash in Aether, but want to be able to surprise my opponent? Rainbow decks will greatly appreciate this, as will Duo/Trio decks if you get lucky with a match-up (mono decks are usually rush, so probably won't need this).

As Kuro said, this will go great when combined with Precognition.

I'm sure many players could easily come up with other ways on how to use this card that I'm missing.

Nope, I think Zanz stated once that he has a policy of "you can't touch your opponent's hand".

I don't believe Zanz ever has, but it is a commonly held feeling of the community.
The Dune scorpion originally burnt a card from the opponents hand before it was changed.

I like it, making effort to know and being rewarded for it.
