Manipulator | Manipulator

[draculesti]

So I've had this idea for a while and thought i should share it. It's a creature card who takes advantage of the enemys and your own creatures abilities. For example, if your opponent has a bunch of viruses and vultures (annoying  ) you would use the ability on virus, and infect the vultures  etc etc or any other useful goodies. Here it is:

Any comments are welcome, wether its overpowered underpowered useless w/e but constructive critisism is always most appreciated 

NAME: Manipulator ELEMENT: COST: 6 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 2|5 ABILITY: Manipulate:Force target creature to use its ability.	NAME: Manipulator Elite ELEMENT: COST: 6 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 2|6 ABILITY: Manipulate:Force target creature to use its ability.

Thanks to Xelax for table

first thing to say, nice artwork
But I wonder that "It's a creature card who takes advantage of the enemys and your own creatures abilities" means the virus would be killed after being activated by Manipulator (you know viruses explode) or Your Card just copied the ability of the virus and used it on the vulture(s)?

[draculesti]

virus would be killed. manipulator forces the creature to use its own ability and everything plays out as it would normally.

PS. sorry about improper format working on it right now

This is actually a pretty cool card and skill... very nice.

[draculesti]

Thanks alot And I was wondering if anyone could let me know what's wrong with how im doing the images, and such stuff cause the Table thing has a couple mistakes in it.

[moomoose]

so if you were to force it to use its ability, would the other player lose the quanta of said ability which it is associated?

[draculesti]

No because I think that would make the card a bit too OP since you could practice quanta denial to some extent with that type of a skill, and the card is already powerful enough, so using opponents skills and wasting his quanta sounds like a bit much. But I could be wrong if noone thinks that it's OP then that could happen.

EDIT: No worries


Quote this then C+P the coding for the table to work.

Looks like quite a cool idea

[draculesti]

Thanks alot Xelax i fixed it in original post Also wondering if i should increase quanta amount on manipulate since a few people I talked to said it was a bit overpowered due to so many uses like paradoxing maxwells demon burrying shreikers and since I thought it could work on weapons too

[moomoose]

heh if it worked on weapons it could lobo their own creatures, reverse time their own creatures (or yours, to prevent deck out), eq/destroy their own permanents or shoot their own creatures, for 3 .  that would be pretty powerful indeed.

This. It's unique, and in a good way.

Haha you're right I think it'll stick with creatures only, unless I get a bunch of requests otherwise then we can up the cost a bit.

Thanks for all the reviews.
