Ciao, I'm not sure if you are searching for art for this card, but I've drawn a praying mantis some time ago and posted here (at the end of the post in the section of free art). If you'd like to use the image instead of the foto feel free to use it.

That custom mantis picture is rather cartoony.
I like this card. Wouldn't need Gravity pull just to take out a creature. But how does hitting immortal ones make sense?

I also had made a mantis image, but it would require a skill.

Imoortal creatures in this game are basically untargetable, but can still being damaged.
Initially i had tought to exclude immortal creatures for being damaged, but on a second thought i found it a pratical way to damage them without a shield + it gives life some chances against a mono aether, wich is good IMO.

It would combo well with this

Even so, this plus adrenaline = ouch.

Let the art creators battle begin!
Ciao shadow, you made really cool art i have to say, bravo.I like very much the mantis you've made, ty.
                                                                    VS
Ty emerald tiger, can i see it? I suppose that there's a light symbol in the image you have made.

Yes, very similar and not very similar at the same time.Interesting.

This card can both overshadow Maxwell's Demon as well as prepare a paradox from said demon.

This card doesn't have player HP damage, maxwell demon has.
This card need 438432432432 turns to kill a 499/498 creature maxwell demon 1.
Maxwell demon has better stats.
I think it's enought to say that doesn't overshadow maxwell demon.

Err, I meant Mantis' effect is a little more accesible than Maxwell's Demon. With MD, you have to wait for a creature that has less hp, which sometimes doesn't happen.
