Unupped is majorly OP.

Upped means 18 RoL for 12 light quanta, not too bad but seeing as RoL generate light quanta anyway it's not exactly bad. This + hope + fractal would make RoL/Hope decks even more elite. In fact it would make it insanely elite. I'd say change the cost of the upped to 4 or 5.

You don't have to use my idea at all, but as a way of balancing the fact that it's probably undercosted right now, you could add a proviso that either it generates a random amount of RoLs from 1 to 3, or that it generates 1 normally, or 2 if under 50% hp, or 3 if under 25% hp.  It would lose some of the synergy/OPness with Hope without being completely useless, and it would be more fun.

unupped is laughably UP. Upped is OP. The only reason people use fractal with their rol decks is so they can get more rols. With your card, you're allowing for a maximum of 24 rols in a single mono deck without mitosis or fractal.

[jacker]

A bit OP, but, in any case, since you are creating creatures, the cost should be the same the same for unup and up, because you are summoning a non-up card and an up card respectively

So, I'm thinking 1 light for unupped to generate 1-3 and 2 light for 1-4 RoLs.

Whadd'ya think?

Photons have few uses in general gaming:

I can only see usefull the unupped version in a massive mutation deck.

About the upped version, Everything has been said before this comment.

Or let it be a random amount,
or example:
40% 1 RoL
30% 2 RoLs
20% 3 RoLs
10% 4 RoLs

just an idea
