Removed. It was placeholder-only anyway ;) (by Mikkel-Mulr @ deviantart.com).

UndeadSpider1990
NOTES:
Here's a riddle for you: what's blue and wavy and ruins everybody's day?
Spoiler for answer:
Phase Shield!!
Presented as the Shrieker's answer to pesky shields—plus fancy metal names to keep it Earthy.

The ability is called Undermine and is active, meaning it can be lobotomized. It affects all burrowed creatures, including the opponent's, and will remove momentum again if those creatures unburrow or if all Saboteurs are lobotomized or leave play.

I almost feel it'd be better if the upped was the same stats as unupped, BUT, adds the clause that only allied minions get the buff. Kinda like the Pandemonium upgrade.

Nah. It'd be too situational to be an useful upgrade.
Every time a graboid evolves, an elemental gets his wings.

Oh, I completely didn't see that! Just as well I suppose, since that wasn't allowed art anyway ^_^. Thanks for the heads up.

With all the free space on the card, it would be nice to just use Momentum's wording instead of saying "have momentum". You could probably put the ability name on there if you wanted too, but totally optional.

Is the Saboteur itself burrowed? Thematically it would fit and make it benefit from its own buff, but that's up to you.

This is actually a really nice use for burrowing creatures. Thinking about whether it's worth gaining momentum but halving you damage is a nice bit of strategy. It doesn't make a mass momentum OP either, seeing as the damage is low anyway. Maybe it's a little too niche but it's still a really nice card.

Thanks! I thought it would make sense thematically to make this burrowed too, but wasn't sure if that'd make it OP. Perhaps I should fill up some of that extra space with the ability burrow! But then I'm not sure how lobo would work.
