Sorry Gl1tch, bob is right with the base HP, if you want to name the 1 hp a photon has let's call it starting HP.

if it has 1/1, and then you bless it, it will become 4/4, with 4 hp, If I decided to deal 3 damage to it with fire lance, it would be 4/1, but it's base hp would still be 4, because it can be healed back up to that. Playing another blessing would increase it to 7/4, but the base hp would be 7.
I ask nothing of humanity but fairness in all things, but I do not expect even that.

Ok thanks for the clarification. I always considered base as being the starting Hp but I am glad to see that cleared up.

Thanks

Okay, let's say it doesn't matter as I made the necessary changes in the cards already, but I win the argument. YAY VICTORY

...images of new versions will appear here shortly.

Hmm?  Silly me for trying to apply MTG to this.  I apologize.

New cards look great =D

Anyway, yeah. Changes made it so the card is now harder to splash, as you cannot upgrade it to lower the cost, while those who use main Air and the upgrades get real power from behind it. With all 6 out, even Colossal Dragons are 7/1!

This + Otyugh / Fire Storm / Plague = fun fun fun :)

Interesting idea. It may be overpowered, but only playtesting can really tell.

This, yeah, generally increases the effectiveness of AEA spells like Thunderstorm. That was the point. Plague and Firestorm also work, but could be harder to pull off.

Otyugh... well, this one is about as effective as normally if not less. With 4 Pressures out, Lava Golem and Elite Otyugh both have 1 HP, so you won't be nomming, and if it has more hp due to your boosts and whatnot, it would have more HP in normal conditions as well.

Good idea, if it just effected your opponent, then it would definitly be op, however, since it effects you as well, I would say that balances it out. Now if there was a card that did the same to atk, then that would be horrible, especially if both people had a shield out on the field that reduced damage by 2 or whatever. The battle wouldnt end til a deck out! That would be a rather annoying combination. The card is a great idea, i think there needs to be more cards that would be great against your opponent, but make you think twice since it effects you as well.

No, you don't need to think. Most of the offensive Air creatures have low HP (Wyrms, Fireflies), so they die of RoF/Sniping/such things anyway.

Well, your FFQs start not surviving RoFs, true, but no one said you can't get a splash of some protection. Say, Heavy Armor from mark, or something.

CArd would be great in use with maxwells demon :) Make the card a lot less situational.

Of course you'd have to outdo the pressure with the buffs.

FFQ has 7 HP, HevE Armor gives +6 to it, so 13. So, you're safe to drop like all of your normal Pressures or like four upgraded ones that leave FFQ with 5 HP.

Of course, if you don't finish the match before you manage to play this all.
