Good fallacy: "That isn't OP, because check out this other OP card idea I have." Why restrict power creep to referencing in game mechanics?

Well people said the other card idea was balanced, and this is worse than that card, so...

But if you really think it's unbalanced, I can change the cost for you.

What if instead of just letting you out-right draw new cards, it discards your hand and lets you draw up to 2 cards for every 1 that was discarded?

It does provide card advantage still, but in a way that sets it apart from times draw theme. (i.e. you have to give up cards to get more new ones)

Sort of like trading in old ideas to come up with better ones. That has a more aether like feel to me at least.

Plus, it fits your idea of "Flux" very well.

I like the discarding idea. Or even discard your whole hand at the begging of your next turn instead. I can't think of too many decks that could lay down two hands worth in a turn.

You could turn it into tropical beach from pokemon tcg lol.

well then how about this?


Just be sure to put me in the art credits if you decide to use it :)

... Oh, and make sure to mention it was made using GIMP.

I... was trying not to make two copies of one card, and you give me an art suggestion...

But, that's lovely. Thank you.

*grin* ... couldn't help it, the card idea spawned the art concept in my head... and it demanded to be let out.

Enjoy!

Wow! That works even better than I thought it would on the aether card backing. Wasn't sure if the red would look good, but it actually seems to fit after all.

Good luck in the polls!
