Yeah, all of those MTG cards you mentioned would be over-powered in Elements.

As for people here confused about MTG, the cost to bring something out is usually much higher in MTG (we get tons of quanta in Elements, while MTG players think 6 mana is a lot). So fewer creatures out in MTG, creatures are more valuable, and very little spawns tons of creatures in MTG effectively like Boneyards/Graveyards in Elements.

Yeah, but they must have like thousands in cards in their decks if they want to use such cards.

And countless more... I love those cards.

I actually have that entire set, too.
Next time, try images that are not protected from hot-linking. :P

In Elements, we only have 60 maximum per deck, and usually only 30, so discarding 2 due to spell or 1 to do 2-3 damage to target is a cost very high.

Ah, yes. Good point. And since we have no "graveyard" in Elements, and no cards to retrieve discards or dead cards, hand or deck discard would be very bad.

They aren't, actually.  They were up last night.  The pictures are not working for me at all now. =o

So, those would be a good idea only when we could put like 120 cards in our decks. Or more. Gods could have 240, why not.

Well, we really don't know either way (unless you are a system admin for their servers or own/run that site). Not all image anit-hotlinking is perfect. Sometimes it lets them through. but it could be another problem too. Right now I see only your first card. I don't see the others.

They're all from the same site, same set and everything.  That's the only image that is working for me on their website.  It looks like they're having difficulties.  I'm sure those images will work again once they fix them.
