HELLO BOBCAMEL HERE

I have lots of ideas and some break all the rules of cards being in the game already, so I want to have your feedback on them.

This idea covers the idea of creatures that harm the owner more than the enemy. Of course, they are designed to be helpful to the owner of their card.

Here go.

But first, a short lesson on my card idea template.

Bold card name: (permanent/spell/creature stats) (card cost)
Ability name (ability cost): What ability does

So, for example of an existing card or two...

Anubis: 5/8 (8 Time quanta)
Immortality (2 Aether): The target creature gets Immaterial status.

Sundial: Permanent (1 Time quantum)
Stasis: All creatures do not attack while this card is in play, but it is self-destroyed in 2 turns.
Hasten (1 Light): Draw a card.

Now, for the actual ideas... three of them, comment on each.


Traitor: 7/2 (2 Entropy quanta)
Every turn, the Traitor switches sides.

Offpissation: 6/4 (5 Darkness quanta)
Hamper: The creature starts with the Hamper status, making it untargetable for its owner only.
Confusion: This creature has a 50% chance of hitting its owner.
Agent: This creature is summoned on the enemy's side.
Frustration (2 any): Targeted creature has a 50% chance to have its stats raised and 50% chance to have its stats lowered. The ability may also inflict a random status on a creature.

Medic Spy: -8/7 (9 Life quanta)
Agent: This creature is summoned on the enemy's side.
WTF NEGATIVE ATTACK: This creature has negative attack power, making its attacks heal the enemy.

My first reaction to this was that it's the worst card ever created by man.

Then I thought about using lobotomy on it. Sure, it would still suck but not as much.

Why not give it 5 HP, and each time it chances sides, it loses 1 HP? This way you will get it for 3 turns and your opponent only 2.

It's not that bad I guess.

It can be quite useful. For example you have 80 Hp, your opponent has 20 and he just played a RoF, so you can't attack him but have a lot of hp.

More senseful: You have a good shield ready (Dissipaton, Dimensional etc.) and your opponent doesn't.

And the funniest: Your opponent has a Procrastination as shield :D So the Traitor will damage him / her, than changes side and can't attack you because the time bubble, than changes again and attacks your op again :) Sounds really funny :)

So imo that would be a good card, but for sure, very interesting!

Even though it hurts you as much as the opponent, you can have a bonewail/Phase shield/heal it back and then it becomes a dirt cheap attacker. Even though it attacks every second turn, it deals roughly 3,5 damage per turn, so it places way in front of all the other attackers in terms of DPTPC.

For tactical use. You're requiring too much from a 2 cost card.

Oh, and what this guy under you said.

WTF U STOLE CONFUSION AND CARD TEMPLATE FROM ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't really see the point in those cards, especially the Traitor one. As I said on the Kongregate forum, it's too much programming for too little return. Nobody will want to use those cards, especially the Traitor card.
To be or not to be, I can do both at once. Go learn quantum mechanics, n00b.
