NAME: Juggernaut ELEMENT: Earth COST: 4 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 0|8 TEXT:   : Bombardment Deal 3 + X direct damage to opponent. X is the number of you own, divided by 3	NAME: Juggernaut ELEMENT: Earth COST: 5 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 0|15 TEXT:   : Bombardment Deal 3 + X direct damage to opponent. X is the number of you own, divided by 3

ART: NEED ART IDEA: GamerJL NOTES: Almost same mechanics as fahrenheit... When Catapulted, has 50% chance of destroying enemy shield. ability causes physical damage. therefore, its affected by physical reducing shields but still does direct damage to other shields. SERIES: ***Insert series name and link to series page (if any)***

I don't see a very good reason for this to be a creature rather than a permanent. Both the unupgraded and upgraded health makes it fairly difficult to destroy.

Not too sure about the card effect yet though

Compare:


You've created a much more powerful, reusable version of the above card in an element that already loves stalling and building up quanta. Not to mention how hard it is to get rid of something with 8|15(!) health.

except that its ability is for opponent only,
its a skill so it can be lobo,
has 0 atk so you need a lot of earth towers to even use its ablity,
this card has high health because of coarse its  ,
it might also take a lot of turns before you can even deal epic damage because of  quanta consumption

except that its ability is for opponent only,
The main appeal of bolts is that it targets opponents for quick massive damage. If a player wanted harder CC they'd be using rage pots
its a skill so it can be lobo,
Honestly, loboing is one of the rarer CCs seen in the game. The most common would be things like lightning or rage pot
has 0 atk so you need a lot of earth towers to even use its ablity,
The upped version is 5 + 3 cards for instant stronger fire bolt every turn. That is much better than a shrieker or fire bolts with enough earth towers (6 towers makes a creature that deals shield bypassing spell damage that increases by 2 each turn for nothing at all if no quanta is spent)
this card has high health because of coarse its  ,
So? Shrieker has an astounding 3hp. Mechanics come before thematics, and making something so hard to kill just to fit a "theme" is no excuse.
it might also take a lot of turns before you can even deal epic damage because of  quanta consumption
Lots of turns don't matter to stall or bolt oriented decks

Thanks for pointing out all the OPness in le card 
i shall update it to a more balanced version.
After i have done some other businesss

You're welcome! Glad to see you're taking my comments in stride and using them to make a more balanced and better card idea.

Farenheit is probably a good place to start balancing this card.
There are a couple of balancing points to note as you go forward though.

-Farenheit is balanced in part by being a weapon, which inherently limits the potetntial for being spammed by mitosis or fractal.
This card is a regular creature, so that could be a problem. Particularly since its cost is low enough for that to be tractable.

-Farenheit is doing physical damage. If this card does non-specific / permanent type or spell damage it would also be more powerful than farenheit even at the same damage scaling since it could bypass shields.

Based on the theme: bombardment with your earth quanta, it would make sense for it to do physical damage (throwing earth-balls) and be subject to normal shield effects (damage reduction, out-of-phase protection) -- although you could argue its like catapult which does bypass shields.
