Name at least is currently being used by a card still current in the Forge: Plasma | Plasma (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,25519.0.html).

That aside, compare the ability to Owl's Eye | Eagle's Eye (http://elementscommunity.org/wiki/cards-air/owls-eye-eagles-eye/) (Since it's in the same element as Animate Weapon, it's the one most likely to become a creature, so I judge it a fair comparison.)  4(3) quanta for 5 damage compared to 2(2) to deal 3 damage.  In the world of EtG, OE is about as much damage on a stick as one would want to have.  Even the spell Shockwave only does 4 damage...other spells that do more damage require you to have more quanta in storage, not using it until after the spell is cast.  Even with the cost of the ability, I'd say 5 damage is a bit too much.

Being the same name as something in the forge doesnt matter however, the ability is quite powerful. The improved plasmas ability is definitly too powerful. The big difference between this and EE is that EE is a weapon, so without another card, you can only use the effect once.

not a whole lot about this makes sense- why 'plasma', why , why lightning?  none of it fits together very well

[NikaZaslavsky]

Ok, if it's too powerful I can change it, but what should the damage, cost, and ability be?

CURATOR COMMENT
-Add a icon after the COST section in both of your tables (it should be '7 ' instead of just '7', unless you're implying that it costs generic quanta, which it doesn't according to the image)
-Leave the SERIES section of the table blank if the card is not part of a Series.
-Fix the spacing in the NAME section of the upgraded table (why is that box bigger than the unupped format? ^^; )

I fixed it

When I was developing my Djinn idea, people used to say "lightning on a stick is OP".  Now this can do 2 lightning per turn? Looks OP.

What little upgrade, hmm? -1 cost, +1/+1 AND double skill. If an offensive skill like that is doubled, card should cost more and have smaller stats.

Also, Plasma in entropy? I could think about fire, or aether, but entropy? Sounds strange.

Ok, should I change the upgraded cost to 8, and stats to 2/2? And I think I want it to be entropy, even if it seems weird, or maybe aether.
