we should come up with a flat out list of things not to include in card ideas and put it in the 'read before posting your ideas' sticky.
1) instant kill creature cards
2) target untargetable cards and remove untargetability
...

I agree not to include instant kill.
but this.. hmm why not? I'm just being open minded to possibilities. besides , its death
thematically death brings end to all things, Magic, Immortality, even gods die... eventually

it has been posted a million times before, and shot down every time.  that's why.

and if that's not enough, try targeting something which cannot be targeted. you can't. you won't. you never will.

ahhh i see.. im still new and i dont know that..sorry ^_^
Im quitting this card




-No...not just yet, if that's the case then I just have to think of another idea! Tehehehee ^_^

[oblivion1212]

actually, if immortal creatures are untargetable,
then just make the effect a random aoe...

i'm pretty sure you can't hit immortals with RoF/plague/panda, but not sure about UG

or just make it a shield ability?
damage block <==> -X|0 right?


u mad, immortals?

alright, if youre not going to dump the idea, make sure it is better than:
http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,14124.0.html (similar mechanic, reduces atk and removes adrenaline, minus the untargetable removal thing)
and
http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,29493.0.html (similar name/theme)

Now this card might make it.  Especially since it can remove adrenaline.

[yumeku]

made changes..

Now it's really underpowered. Should decrease attack a LOT more. Rage potion that costs the same deals 5 damage and I'd rather use that than this.

In general, I doubt that you could make a better card than moomoose suggested above.. but who knows.

[mildlyfrightenedboy]

I think that, following cards that are already in-game, it should be phrased:
"The target creature gains -1/+0 and loses adrenaline and momentum."
(and likewise for the upgraded version)

Stats of a creature are written as ATK | HP, but any stat changes are always "gains ATK/HP".

EDIT: Ah, I didn't read the notes.  In that case, I would word it like this:
"If the target creature has Momentum or Adrenaline, it is lost.  If it does not, it gains -1/+0."

Regarding the actual card:
I think that it is drastically underpowered.  Unless you are fighting a deck that basically revolves around Momentum and Adrenaline (like Obliterator), then it is basically just a weak ATK-lowering card.  Antimatter instantly makes the creature's ATK negative (unless it is already below one), but this only reduces it by one.  You would be better off just using Gravity Pull (or Retrovirus, in the same element) and killing a creature yourself instead of slowly reducing its ATK for one / two per card.
