Phantom of Ignorance | Specter of Apathy https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=23534.msg299891#msg299891

NAME:
Specter of Apathy
ELEMENT:
Other
COST:
7
TYPE:
Creature
ATK|HP:
0|3
TEXT:
Lose 1 HP and reduce your opponent's max HP by 5 per turn if material. Immaterial.
: Toggle immateriality.
ART:
Bloodshadow
IDEA:
Bloodshadow
NOTES:
The "" symbol does NOT denote a new element. Instead, that symbol means that when the card is played, your opponent gains that amount of quanta matching his or her Mark. I am using this symbol because there isn't enough space to put all this text in the card description.

This card is a part of my Void series. Using Void cards give your opponent quanta, while Void Pillars take those quanta away. Both the Pillars and other Void cards can be put into normal decks, or they can be used together in a Mono-Void deck.

Invisibility is the same as the one induced by Cloak. A single invisible square appears black, and you cannot target that square unless you reveal it with an AoE spell. This card starts invisible/immaterial, but you can toggle it on and off. This creature loses 1 HP per turn if invisibility/immateriality is off; this is not poison and cannot be cured. The ability does not work and the creature does not lose HP if it is delayed.

The concept behind this card is that if you don't know or don't care about something, it doesn't affect you. You don't know about invisible creatures, and you don't care about immaterial creatures with 0 ATK. However, ignorance and apathy will gradually die out as people become more aware.

I hope that this isn't OP with Fractal...

The problem with your "void quanta" methods, is that you can immediately play all of your creatures you place into your hand with fractal. 8*4 +4(the one on the field you fractaled) = 36 unrecoverable damage. meaning you have 3 turns to win unless you use SS or SoD. maybe a little OP

But if you use Fractal, you give your opponent 54 quanta instantly. Depending on the situation, he may kill you more quickly than you kill him.

Any more feedbacks?

I think that in general, the Void creatures should not be allowed to have fractal cast on them.  Don't know how to code that or if it is possible, but I really think that that would make these cards much less OP.  I mean they already don't cost anything. . .

fractal or twin universe for that matter. but otherwise, i like the card, its a neat dragon (squishy one at that) but he really kills you just by being there and thats what void should do. also, i have a suggestion for you blood, how about a rmoval for void.

void blade| void blade
7 void | 6 void

destroy target creature, you gain life equal to half that creature's hp

I think the toggling abilities should have a cost of 1 or 2. FOr reasons said above

I changed it. Now it starts invisible/immaterial, and it costs 2 Void to toggle.

What about having start poisoned as a possible balance factor? That way you limit the potential damage and it is also thematically appropriate as ignorance and apathy will die out as people start to become more aware of their surroundings.

Implemented. It now loses 1 HP per turn if visible/material. I buffed the pseudo-damage to 5, because now there are no ways to keep Phantom/Specter alive permanently. If you want a more stable attacker, use Voidwalker or Void Dragon.

abosolutely magnificent art. i love that thing, i just want to thow it at my opponnent's face and say : 15 dmg over 3 turns. i decide when though!

this thing can make someone die very fast if there's a full playset on the field (6). 30 dmg a turn maximum with 6 of those guys out, just enough to counter SoGs (if none of yours are stolen!)
