ART:

IDEA:
jacker
NOTES:
After some advice, i changed the card this way. Demise formula to calculate is (thanks camoninja!) 25^(1-HP/MAXHP), so 25 is its maximum Atk. Some examples
50/100 -> 5
30/100 ->10
15/100 ->15
1/100  ->24
50/500->18
20/500->22
1/500->25
The change of Atk will occur at the end of every turn.
Now it should be more balanced. Waiting for suggestions

Does death shadow's attack only change on the turn that it is put on the board, or does it change at the end of every turn before it attacks?

I would suggest:
    Death shadow's attack only changes on the first turnDecrease death shadow's attack a bit...way too high (consider changing the -attack: health ratio also)Possibly drains all remaining death quarta, so that it cannot be used again too quicklyNO IMMORTALITY: Upped, if even if your opponent has 30 hp left, death adder has 25 attack. Crazy if it cannot be destroyed.
Compare this card to any dragons. Upped dragons cost 12 quarta or so, and this card, which has a very good potential to do twice that, costs only 7.

The intention for the card value is to be costantly update. The cost is not as high as dragons because it has some limitation in use (it would be crazy put it into play with a negative atk). Anyway, it could be raised without problem.
from the 4th line, it seems you didn't understood the card... It loses X atk, where X is YOUR life total. So, if you are at 25hp with upped, he is a 30|6

if you are going to be "inspired" by an M:tG card you should at least change the name.

its not a huge deal, a lot of people here play or played magic as well so the cards are bound to crop up in the create a card forum.  could definitely be broken in the right situation.  im imagining playing this turn 3-4 and playing antimatter on it.

Not at platinum level, so i can't imagine. Definetely broken, ok :D

Maybe moved toward this direction?

The first idea is problematic when it comes to choose: when antimattred, what should be done?

Scenario: i'm at 90, DS is at -45, AM and is 45. When my hp drop at 80, which should be tha value?
Doing the card this way, it should be easier
