ART:

IDEA:
jawdirk
NOTES:
Has no effect on burrowed creatures.
Immediately after you cast it all immaterial creatures lose immaterial, and all unburrowed normal creatures become immaterial.
After your enemy's turn, this happens again.
Example: you cast Paradigm shift. Your enemy's immortal loses immaterial. You cast quintessence on it and it becomes immaterial again. At the end of your enemy's turn, it loses immaterial again (for good).

A lot of interesting effects in one card:
  • It allows you to use CC against immaterial creatures for 1 turn
  • It allows you to protect all your creatures against CC for 1 turn. Might create a niche for 2-turn kill decks.
  • It allows you to put enchantments on your immaterial creatures (but you risk CC for 1 turn) or you can use SoW on your normal creatures
  • Goes well with silence.

So, mass Quint for one turn?  I'd raise the costs to 4 |2 or 3

A bit more than just mass quint if i'm reading it right. It would also de-quint all current immortals for 1 round.
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

CC: It would improve CC a bit and just occasionally.
Buffs: Just lets you to spam spell damage. It would be only used in specific decks (stuff + SoW)
Defense: A 1-turn quint is poor, the only uses I find is making 2-turn kills as it's said in the OP.

Conclusion: I don't think this card would improve the game.

This idea has been done before and this is my thoughts on this kind of mechanics :

What makes immaterial creatures valuable is that they ARE immaterial. If immaterial creature is no longer protected from CC, what's the point of using them ?
