Disciple/Savant of Aether - Disciple Series

[omerbey]

I'm sure many people have thought of creature stealing. I did too.
By the way, I like upgraded and unupgraded cards having different abilities, and different uses.

Oh, and to hypnotize another creature, previous creature must be dropped.

Disciple is basically a duo version of Arctic Squid.
Savant is very overpowered, I think. For 5 + 2x quanta, you can control x amount of opponent creatures. Immortalize the Savant, and every creature your opponent plays is "stolen".

[omerbey]

well.. yeah
difference is frozen creatures can be targeted.

I added extra info about hypnotizing because I couldn't find a way to implement it in the card text.
read: "Oh, and to hypnotize another creature, previous creature must be dropped."

[icybraker]

Ah. That's better.

Parallel Universe would help here. You still have massive creature control, but at least its more limited now. I still don't like Disciple, as it seems a bit dry, but that's just me.

For the Disciple Icy has it right a duo version of Arctic squid and I would rather use the squid.

For the Savant I don't think I'd use it Aether already has TU and lightning takes care of most creatures.

[icybraker]

The TU is mainly for making more Savants so you can hypnotize more creatures; either that, or TUing hypnotized creatures to get more power for attacking.

[omerbey]

I'm not too thrilled about the disciple either but savant definitely has uses.
you deny your opponent of any creature for any reason. and gain that creature. and without playing a card.
get their firefly queen first. when they drop the oty, get it. when something worse comes, get that. without playing a card.

[Tea is good]

If a arctic squid is rare, then this would have to be as well. Never really got why arctic squid is rare. 3 water quanta to play a 1/2 creature and the same cost to freeze a creature. Freeze and congeal cost much less, plus arctic squid is really, really easy to kill.

Anywho, I like the uses for this, All those gigantic growth creatures...
