over 9000?
I ask nothing of humanity but fairness in all things, but I do not expect even that.

It is a reference to the internet meme known as "IT'S OVER 9000".
To be or not to be, I can do both at once. Go learn quantum mechanics, n00b.

Haha I see what you mean. I still like the aesthetic appeal of it. I don't like how it looks with three quanta.

This thread got all mushy gushy and weird.  Anyone else with a member card instead of a meme?   ;)

i know what it is, but where exactly would you get 1337 darkness? (know what that is too)

You can't get 1337 Dark quanta. That's exactly the point. That card is instant-kill, because no matter how you protect yourself, you can't block over 9000 damage; and since the spell is untargeted, it cannot be reflected. Instant-win cards can only have absurd costs.

Then why would anyone take this card in their deck if there is no chance of playing it? It makes absolutely no sense. This card should cost something like 50 quantum so you could actually use it.

Also the description would be better without that "over" 9000. Why not simply 9000?

The joke would be negated. Make it 9001 and post it in your suggested format. And make it cost a rainbow quantum that people actually think they can get; till they play the game, because it's suppose to be unbeatable. And a joke, with obscure referances.

SG, my card was a JOAK CARD. Don't you get it? It's not meant to be played.

If I put 9001, then some people will not get the joke. And I can't make rainbow quanta, because it's my personal spell, Bloodshadow Apocalypse. In the novel I'm writing right now as a hobby, Bloodshadow Apocalypse is the character Devilord Bloodshadow's ultimate attack. Hence the Dark element.

I'm pretty sure the card was meant entirely as a joke. The 1337 cost and the "over 9000" reference are both internet memes.

What?! It was a joke? Dammit, why would anyone joke about these things?

I personally was being 100% serious. I don't think we should have these "jokes" on a forum. If a person cannot talk about Elements in a serious manner, that person should go to a comedy forum instead.

I'm cheating and putting 2 cards with my namesake.

First, a spell card:



Upgraded card would cost 6 of any one element.  Makes it easier for any mono/dual deck to use, but harder still for rainbow decks.

Second, a creature card:



Probably needs to be rebalanced, but it's a thought.  I figure if Anubis costs 8 Time and can make any creature immortal, he could cost 8 Gravity and can Gravity Pull any creature.  Not sure what the upgrade would be.
