ART: tome213 http://www.sxc.hu/photo/727484 IDEA: avantasia666 NOTES: The ability is passive. The ATK is rounded down rounded down. Shields that don't have damage reduction have no effect on Ghost of frustration. Fog shield and Dusk mantle don't reduce damage they stop the attack. Same for Dim shield. Only physical damage reduced counts. There are no spell damage reducing shields out now if I remember right (Just put it on the opponent what isn't the same) but This should clear things up. Shields who affect Ghost of frustration (thx ddevans96) Skull Shield/Buckler Ice/Permafrost Shield Spine Carapace (upped only) Emerald/Jade Shield Titanium/Diamond Shield Solar Shield/Buckler Mirror Shield (upped only) Hope (unupped and upped) Shield/Tower shield SERIES:

I simply believe that playing Diamond Shield altogether turns this card into a creature that gains +3|+0 for every creature the opponent plays. At least Aflatoxin only lets this thing reach 23|4, but while we're in , why not throw some Heavy Armors on this fella?

[avantasia666]

So it's OP? Mabe reduce the attack gain? Something like N/2?

[Genuinous]

Teeny Tiny bit OP.
Dimensional shield. All opponent damage is blocked. So each and every one of these creatures would do as much damage as your opponent  would altogether. Little too much.

Already say it in the notes

It's still badly said... Those shields have damage reduction as well but I get the point... RoL/Hope would be strong if this could be added. But either way as said above Diamond Shield could be fairly strong. The problem is, that this creature is pretty situational, but even with a couple creatures up against you it's really strong. Diamond + 5 opponent creatures = 15 attack..... And many decks go over 5 creatures.
How would it affect blocked spell damage?

[avantasia666]

Those shield prevent you from getting damage but don't reduce it in my opinion. What I meant is shields who say: "The damage dealt to you from a physical source is reduced by X" Spell damage is a good point. Will add "physical damage to the notes"

Of course it would be strong with diamond shield. That's what it's made for 

But to set up this you need 4 (upped ghost) 6 (diamond shield) and an opponent with many creatures. If all that happens there is the chance your shield is destroyed. OK PA is  too. So 1 . 4HP isn't that much. So your creatures can be destroyed too. There is a counter too in  : hevy armor. That's another  .

4 + 8 + 4 cards. And you still aren't sure your creature isn't killed.

It's potentielly strong but I don't think it's OP. What can be done to make it more balanced if you say it's too strong?

[Genuinous]

Not sure.... Besides Diamond shield, the other shields would not have that big impact on this creature.... But still any decks, where you spam out creatures could be killed by  combo. Here comes the balancing, with which I'm not so good

Hmm. Okay but thank you for helping.  So is there anyone who can help me to balance this card?

Oh btw... Could you put up a better picture ? normal size?

I'm sorry. Don't know how. It always went small while uploading. If anyone can tell me what I'm doing wrong I will try it again.
