Falcon Lancer | Elite Falcon Lancer

[Kuroaitou]

NAME: Falcon Lancer ELEMENT: Air COST: 5  TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 5 | 6 ABILITY: : Impale Causes a creature to bleed for 3 turns. Can only be used on one target at a time.	NAME: Elite Falcon Lancer ELEMENT: Air COST: 7  TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 6 | 6 ABILITY: : Impale Causes a creature to bleed for 3 turns. Can only be used on one target at a time.

ART: Kuroaitou (yes, I actually drew ALL of that XD) IDEA: Kuroaitou NOTES: Bleeding: Target takes 1 damage each turn while bleeding, and has its attack reduced by half. When the bleeding stops, the attack is returned to normal, and the damage per turn effect is removed. Bleeding effects can stack.This creature also has the new upcoming 'airbourne' passive skill.

Comments, suggestions, questions, and all forms of non-flaming feedback are welcome.

EDIT: Simplified the notes section to make it easier on readers. ^^;

I always feel that creatures with abilities shouldn't also be big husky ones. So I think that maybe the stats on this guy could be lowered just a bit, maybe make him an attack heavy / HP weak creature since he seems very aggressive.

Oh and nice job with the picture

Thanks for the support on the artwork. Took about 4 hours and then some to just THINK of what it would look like, and for drawing it... let's not go there. XD

I suppose I could lower the attack and HP to 3|4 (4|4 upgraded), but the reason why the cost of the creature is so high because the ability itself drops down by 1. Of course, it'd probably be a better idea to keep the same cost, just up the stats and lower the ability instead, right?

What do you think of the ability itself? Is bleeding too powerful of an effect? Or is it too weak? Just right?

The art is Suwweeet!

The explanation is kind of complicated which isn't the best. Maybe simplify it? The simple first bullet point is easy enough. I think its a fair ability.

Done - I'm kind of worried about my explanations not being thorough enough, so that's why I added so many bullet points. Here's a simpler explanation then.

Good idea with the bleed thing but meh... I don't like it being wind

What other element do you suggest? ^^;; Birds happen to go into , so...

(I would have considered making a creature card for , but I think that could use a mid-range hitter with a very bizarre ability)

I think the non-upgraded is a bit better than comparable cards:
Toadfish is 5/4 for the same cost, and it's ability is in a different element, and abomination 5/5 with no ability for the same cost. I do recognize that neither of these cards is particularly powerful, so probably only a minor adjustment is needed.

My only other comment is that I think the non-upped might be better than the upgraded one. Increasing the cost to play by 2 is pretty big.

*edit* Toadfish just got buffed, so the unupped is pretty balanced now. Maybe cut the cost of the upgrade by 1 though?

I know this one is old, but since you brought it up in your stickied topic, Kuro...

Both the art and the card idea are very nice. Also, this should go into the Crucible soon - 4 hours is something I wouldn't waste, like, ever.

Actually, Falcon Lancer was in the Crucible for a while, but I personally removed it (didn't even bother archiving it), when it was low in votes, because I believe that it was mediocre. I think I have to make the mechanic a lot more interesting/innovative before I'd like to resubmit my card idea again for approval.

[ratcharmer]

Are you planning on re-using the art then? I'd hate to see that image go to waste

Yay for new skill!
