Emerald scales (5 :life) spell-
All damage dealt to the target creature is reflected on your opponent. Previous skills are removed.

Jade scales (3 :life) spell-
All damage dealt to the target creature is reflected on your opponent. Previous skills are removed.

(skill thing just to prevent armagio abuses)

Just an attempt at a mirror shieldlike ability. Enchanted creatures w/this are NOT immaterial.
So, tell me my friend, what can you see? What comes into your mind as you breathe?

seems like it would be something more entropy based, and could be used with firewall or something

Clarification: can this be applied to immaterial creatures? What about 'reflective shield damage', such as Fire Shield? [Would the shield be ignored, and the creature that attacks have no HP reduction, while the person with the Fire Shield take 1 damage per hit?] What about poisons?

I'm assuming Gravity Pull rewrites Jade/Emerald Scales over and vice versa to prevent the "can't damage me or the monster/stop hitting yourself" combo, but I'm afraid this effect seems a little odd...

you could still abuse this with gravity pull. you would just have to play it before you played the gravity pull.

Make it a status, like gravity pull
If a creature has this status it cannot be targeted by gravity pull, remove gravity pull status when played
This looks a bit like quintessence, but stronger
what will happen if it is devoured?

I would make it immune to damage from all sources except shields, so you have to get momentum if you want it to ignore shields

great idea, that would solve the pull issue. It reflects just damage (firewall, global damage and individual spells) it still can be eaten, poisoned and all that stuff.
 
Or it could be a creature, perfect to balance things against firestorm/firewall decks.

I would want it to be affected by firewall, but that's just me

how will it be a creature?

Quicksilver (1 :entropy) creature-
1/1 (upgraded 2/1)  Reflect. Quicksilver can't learn any other skill.

Perfect for fractal but still not overpowered :D





Or anything else that makes more sense.
