ART: YoYoBro IDEA: YoYoBro NOTES: The wild force of nature, sprouting vines to lash its opponents to death. Epic. (fail?) SERIES: None

The second card, maybe it's slightly OP because of the potential high damage, but it would work best only in a pure green deck, and can't be used as a CCing card. Any constructive criticism will be greatly appreciated. The idea looks a bit clichèd, so if I've copied someone else's, I didn't mean to and will change the card if required.

I think it's fine. it's a nice damaging card yet doesn't break the game since you wouldn't really have too terribly many pillars/towers in the first place. even if you did, you'd have to play them all, which would take awhile, to gain maximum effect.

[YoYoBro]

Exactly. My idea was to create a fire lance-like card, which fits the theme of life and nature.

Excact what I would say

I'm glad you guys appreciate this card, will post more soon

So.... this is Fire Bolt,  version? I think it fits the theme well and is balanced while not being ridiculously broken, as well as putting a new spin on things.

Yep, Pillars and Towers ("Lands" in m) should be what Life (Nature, the green color in mtg) is about, so I had to involve them when creating a green version of Fire Lance.

So what you're saying is you want Elements to be as much of an M:tG ripoff as possible? Maybe you shouldn't design cards.

[YoYoBro]

Maybe you should read that this thread is meant to discuss about the card, and not whether you think I'm preparing a secret conspiration to turn elements in some M:tg ripoff. Before posting.

And, just not to let you say that I'm just spitting nonsense not to admit I'm a secret Mt:g fan who should not design cards in first place, I was explaining Zblader who, unlike you, expressed an opinion about the card, why I chose this mechanic for this card.

Your reason for choosing the mechanic was because life is like green in M:tG. Stop being a hypocrite.

While I do agree that the mechanic is very MTG like...

That is a rather harsh comment to a card designer who actually made a good idea.  Please think before you post.

@Uppercut: don't be that agressive. Calm down

@Yoyobro: Sure you can imagine and create a life card that deals damage to the opponent without imitating the fire spell.
Reflection is the way life deals damage with spells (with opponent spells). Turn it into a revenge spell and you'll have my vote.
