Needs an oracle saying for this version. Suggestions welcome.


The motivation of this card is to provide alternative spell damage mitigation methods outside of simply reflecting it back (like mirror shields). The effect is supposed to be a much softer counter but also provide more flexibility by enhancing the existing shields rather than just adding in another shield to choose from.

Multiple copies of this card will each have separate chances of triggering for each spell-damage source, so the amount of reduction will have a random quality to it.

E.g. with 3 of these in play, each spell damage source gets reduced by an amount ranging from 0 to 6 points and on average, 2 points would be reduced.

The targeting resistance works just like targeting evasion provided by SoFr for creatures.

Each point of spell damage that gets reduced will cause a point of quanta to be generated. The element of the quanta generated will match the element of the shield.

Whether the glass is half full or half empty is a moot point. It is always filled to the brim. It is only a matter of by what. The real question is: What fills you?
If your zombie plan is
kill -9 `ps l | awk '{print $2" "$3" "$9}' | grep "Z" | awk '{printf("%s ",$2)}'`
You might be a unix junky

Make this other maybe? Goes off my buffing shields theme :)
My default opinion of a new card is OP. Your job as a card creator will have to be to convince me otherwise.
Happy to help with questions regarding upped PvP
Thanks for voting Blarp as your Favorite PvP Deck of 2012!

Updated to new version.

Should cost come up a little or do you think it will be ok as is if it gets changed to an "other" type card?

Do you have a link to a shield buff theme thread / series? I can mention it in here so there is a tie in.

I'm working on another card along similar lines right now, so it might be good to have a link so that people can see whats out there already.
