Card to combine with: Crusade | Holy War (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,8202.msg101176#msg101176) SERIES: -

Well, my first idea, designed for the Opposites attract competition, but let's see what you think of it.

Change-log:

Placed newest version, with "for 1 turn".

op i think not sure i mean 6 drags plus this is a one turn kill and that would only cost wat 78 qaunta

[the dictator]

When having 6 dragons, you will need 12 quanta and dive costs also 2 quanta to double the attack, so I don't see the problem.
Also, 6 dragons are most of the time an one-turn-kill, with or without this.
But, when you disagree, how should I change it, according to you?

Hmm... I think it's a bit op as well. If you have a Ruby Dragon for example and play this card. 1*3=3 quanta is spent. The Ruby Dragon's new attack is 24.

I would change it as follows:

N= combined value of the attack of all of your creatures divided by 2. That way it'll cost the same for decks with small creatures and for decks with large creatures.

[the dictator]

I don't think so, because combining cards that work well together, is just the thing to do.
So, for example, don't use this in a fractal devourer deck 

Consider this, a pegasus double's his attack also, but only for 1 quanta.

The combining aspect is the idea of elements, and I don't think a card is overpowered if it works well with another card.
For example, take an otyugh, that is a strong card, however, no one will call it overpowered because you can eat a light dragon after using some plate armors.

But I just see I missed something, I place the old version: the effect was meant to be for 1 turn, forgot to edit that.

Good to see a variable cost value card!!

Ok good. 1 turn is a lot less OP than forever.

If this works like dive then Aethers can heavily abuse this with another dive creature.
Summon a dive creature,
Next turn activate dive and use this, then parallel
Repeat and kill.
It's like 2 dives in 1 turn.  Which means I can get my 200(something high, too lazy to calculate =P  but it's 1 Wyrm and 6 parallels so ... 3-6-12-24-48-96-192 ... dam I just calculated it >_<) damage Wyrm faster ^_^  So instead of getting it in 7 turns it only takes about 4 ^_^ ... and then I can go even further .. 1000 here I COME!! mwahahahahaaa
