Hmmm... Interesting idea. I've been toying with making a card that generates pendulums for time / earth.

Out of curiosity, did you pick :life as the ability cost?

It works out alright thematically, although :entropy already has a :life synergy card (Fallen Elf / Fallen Druid)
Whether the glass is half full or half empty is a moot point. It is always filled to the brim. It is only a matter of by what. The real question is: What fills you?
If your zombie plan is
kill -9 `ps l | awk '{print $2" "$3" "$9}' | grep "Z" | awk '{printf("%s ",$2)}'`
You might be a unix junky

Well, I'm new to Elements so I don't know any existing backstory behind the pillars, but, I was imagining them as focuses for elemental power, like a place where that power could collect and be used.

I see Entropy as the element of raw quanta.  With Nova and Supernova in the fold, entropy seemed like a natural place to begin tapping random quanta.  Then I had to choose an element that would create the pillars.  That was either going to be Life as a source of creation or Earth as a source of matter.  I choose to go with Life over Earth.

If that combo is frowned upon I could change it to Earth or even Mono-Entropy, but, up the cost in that case.

(plus, in my rainbow deck Life is next to useless, my pile of Life quanta always seems to grow faster than the rest, having a sink for it like this seemed like a good idea to me.)

In and of itself I think the thematic connection is pretty good. I was just noting that there is already an :entropy card that makes use of a :life powered ability... typically there seems to be more of a push for adding new duo-synnergies rather than expanding current ones.

I still think its a fun and useful card as is, however.

I could easily change it to Earth if folks like that better.  I'm not a guy opposed to making changes :)
