It's like the Newton's Cradle in real life; the momentum just gets swung through the middle creatures and hits the end.

Here's my first card. How do you guys like it? Think I have everything that I need in the table filled out.

Interesting concept. However, it does require choosing two targets (as the "end creatures"), which is a programming issue. I think it would be better if the card was slightly different (since oftentimes, people rarely go out of the middle creature row): "Alternate dealing target creature 2/4 damage and dealing a random neighboring creature 2/3 damage."
To me, it seems a little UP.

Guessed it would be a gravity card from the title.  :D

Really cool and creative card.

Just a little technical question, will it start from left to right or right to left ?
My real-life sucks. So i come online to compensate that.

Newton's Cradle:
5 :gravity

averages of 1 damage per turn to those 2.

Plague:
4 :death
affects all creatures
all creatures lose 1 hp per turn.

I am not sure of the balance issue but plague is one-time use card so it's timing is crucial and is weaker in that sense. But this card has a prolonged effect and can effect creatures summoned in afterward turns too. It can force the opponent to think twice about the creature he is about to summon.

Newton's Cradle:
5..
affects 2 creatures
averages of 1 damage per turn to those 2.

Plague:
4..
affects all creatures
all creatures lose 1 hp per turn.

Um...probably to the left of the person who cast, so to his opponent's right.

Anyway, thanks for your comments. :)

Correct me if I"m wrong, but isn't your left also your opponent's left?

I do not know if it is possible to make a spell have a lasting effect like that.

Well, I'm pretty certain that, say you cast it, presuming it's on your opponent's field, it would be to your left. Say that, from your perspective, it's an Armagio, a Giant Frog, and a Schrodinger's Cat. It would be on the Armagio. It would be flipped around for your opponent; he'd have the Cat to the left, then the Frog, then the Armagio. It's on his right.

And honestly, I doubt it would be possible.

Easily possible. It would be an enviromental effect that would damage the first creature it encounters. (Alternating whether it starts checking from the right or left side of the field)
