NOTES:
Really just an attempt to get another shield into the game. Since 'Other' doesn't currently have any shields, I thought I'd whip something up. Cost to play might need to be tweaked.

Meh, it's sort of like Fire Shield with extra abilty. There is an  :rainbow type shield in the Crucible too, FYI.

The "sacrifice a pillar to block all attack damage" sounds cool, but it seems a little OP considering how well this would work in a stall deck, which means this could only be beat by poison or fire bolt (you can even take poison off the list if you splash in purify).

You're onto me. I play stall decks. With Purify.

I agree it's a mite OP'd. As stated, it was kind of an off the cuff type deal...I threw it out there more or less for discussion. Suggestions are always appreciated. And I didn't see the other shield. I'll have to take another look.

if we are going by the  3 :rainbow = 1  :aether :air :darkness etc, (quantum tower=Regular tower) then this would cost 18|12 :rainbow (fire shield costs 6|4) i am not adding due to the ability since sacrifice a pillar is a hefty enough price

Still having problems balancing the costs of these cards. Could use some advice?
