What can I say... OP

At least make the ability cost something. Maybe  or the same as it was on the original creature.

[assassim]

It would be more balanced if you took out the ability part (devour)?

btw did you give her a boob job?   

[kintar]

Use it on a oty/scarab, and you get a 9 HP devourer that can devour for free. FFQ is pretty OP as well. But the worst would be a buffed leaf dragon... infinite  for free? Pretty OP if you ask me.

[mokasu]

You should lower its att and def,cuz its ability to use an effect for free,is OP enough.With its stat,ill say a deck with 6 of this can be pretty damn strong...

hm, didn't think about leaf dragon. you really can't do too much damage with a lot of life quanta, but i'm not fan of infinite combos. i'll increase the cost to 1 .

THE CARD HAS BEEN UPDATED IN OP
ability cost has been increased, and HP reduced.

discussion up to this point has been over this version:

i reduced the HP so as to make the synergy with devour less scary.

and yes, i moved them to her stomach. much better i think.

5 cost for 9 damage? Either up the cost or lower the attack.

5 cost for 9 damage? Either up the cost or lower the attack.

you have to sac a creature to have it enter play. the cost of two physical cards, and the cost to put the previous card into play is included in the cost. 5 for 9 is completely reasonable in this scenario. i'm not going to nerf this card out of existence.

So basically this is a spell a bit like blessing that costs 5 and grants (up to) +9 / +4 and can only be played on creatures with >= 5 hp? It would be easier to comprehend if you rewrote it as a spell I think.
