NAME:

ELEMENT:

COST:

TYPE:
Permanent
TEXT:
Attacking creatures gain momentum. Greater enemy creatures may collapse. 1 :aether : Destroy Astral Portal.
ART:
Art needed.
IDEA:
Kaos.
NOTES:
Astral Bridge/Portal bypass shields creating a direct connection between the opponents. This space connection (imagine it like a tunnel) is unstable, and can collapse making some creature that uses it disappear. Hope that the idea is clear.^^

The upgraded version, the Portal, has been stabilized and your creatures can use the Portal safely.

I'm thinking that collapse possibility could be like this:
- 1/2 HP: 5%
- 3/4 HP: 15%
- 5/6 HP: 25%
- 7/8 HP: 35%
- >8 HP: 45%

This would be wonderful against Gravity decks. Very good. Thumbs up from me, should it matter.

(Why am I seeing so many new Aether cards, and not Earth or Life? Just wondering.)

I like the concept, but would giving Aether a way to completely bypass shields be too OP?

Opponents can explode this if they don't like it. xD

It's a strong buff to immortal creatures, I know, but opponent's creatures can bypass phase shields too.^^

I believe that the potential OPness of this card is countered by the fact that there's a chance that your creatures will be damaged or die if they are too large. Good of you to think of that, though.

Whoa this is a pretty cool card :D
The cost is debatable because you can just spam creatures with low HP and completely demolish your opponent or you can use creatures with high HP and higher ATK and take the chance of them dieing.

True, but think of this: Aether doesn't have many powerful creatures, thus not so much chance to have creatures destroyed. I know Aether usually works well in combos, but most of the other elements, barring  :fire and  :time, have creatures with a wide range of stats. Thus, all is balanced. Well, mostly, for I haven't much experience with Aether.

You also have to consider Aether having creatures that come onto the field  Immaterial.
A card that grants all creatures on the field Momentum + The creatures not being able to die, can prove to be OP.

The biggest problem I can see with this would be in a poison deck(fractal/mitosis + forest scorpions + adrenaline + this maybe).  The creatures are small enough that they would have little to no risk of dying and the damage would add up real fast

I like it. ADD IT TO THE GAME. Too bad I wouldn't use it because I know everytime I triggered it, all my creatures would be sucked into the vortex.

When it comes to % stuff, everything is 100% when it's bad to me.  :P

Well, Aether is one of the elements with less cards, I guess having more cards wouldn't hurt it (Fire would need some UP card IMO :P).

Whatever, I like how this work. *insert deep comment about the balance and that stuff whenever you have time to*
