Entropy cards can still be generated from this (which means it can generate itself...)

I really like that idea. It definitely adds to the "Randomness" concept of Entropy. Would you be getting an hourglass perhaps? Maybe a Phase Shield to hold out? How about a lowly water pillar?

Question is, are there enough permanents (excluding shields) to make this card random enough?

Allow me to LIST all of the possible cards that you can obtain.

-All 12 pillars
-Golden Hourglass
-Sundial
-Empathetic Bond
-Shard of Gratitude
-Unstable Gas
-Flooding
-16 Shields (17 if you count the upcoming 'Wings')
-Boneyard
-Nightfall


So that leaves us with a total of nearly 26 cards to choose from. And remember - this doesn't include the weapons and upgraded cards, so if you think that this set of permanents is not nearly enough to be random per turn... ^^;;;

What about weapons? could they be produced?

What about weapons? could they be produced?

No. Check the first post for details in the 'Notes' section. I don't want rare cards to be generated (especially since you can get really powerful ones like Eternity, Pulverizer, or Trident, which would all be devastating in an entropy-based rainbow).

Shard of Gratitude is an upgraded card. Is this an exception or a mistake?

...uh... mistake. ^^;; My bad. I guess SoD's aren't included then.

[PuppyChow]

Then it's 36 (not including SoG, including wings) possibilities. Not 28.

[actionjack]

very interesting idea.. fit the theme very well.

NOTES:
-Permanents it can generate include pillars, shields, and other permanents (Hourglasses, Unstable Gases, SoD's, Bonds, etc.)

SoD = Shard of Divinity? Isn't that a spell?

I think you might've meant SoG. Minor fuss.

I'm not really following how devastating are random weapons. This card is obviously made for control rainbow, and you cannot rely on random to get your Eternity or Pulvy. You'll pack those. If you have them equipped, this thing generating Vamp Stiletto will not help you, but potentially ruin you.
Same can be said about shields.

Now, on general concept, this is one thing you bring instead of fat deck of permanents. But when you look at what it gives, you'll alternate between pillars and shields mostly. Too random to be useful imo.

Why specify that the permanent be non-Entropy? Considering that the only possibly-eligible permanents in Entropy are Amethyst Pillar and Dissipation Shield...
