I think it should have a repeatable ability like photosynthesis for adding counters, but whenever your opponent pays to summon a card (after 1 has already been summoned that turn) , the summon fails, they keep the card, but a counter goes away.


The reason I said "pays to summon a card" is to stop them from being able to beat it with RoL alone.


That way, it essentially is a race between your entropy production and their production of whatever the element is they are trying to multiple summon.  That way, you can't guarantee that this lasts a set number of turns by making it immaterial, and both players can influence how long it lasts.

Doublecross' suggestions are, as always, good. Imo, that would be a worthty tweak. But it'd be hard to code, I think.

"Generate  per turn.
  Dispel: Add 1 counter to this card. Counters hinder creature summoning."

First: Got any suggestions to compress that doublecross? I love your suggestion, and now I must have it as this card's new mechanic

I quoted OldTrees's post as an example, because that might work for what doublecross suggested as well, just describe what 'hinder' means in the notes.

Its important for this card to actually say "Only 1 creature can be summoned at a time". Just "hinders summoning" could mean way too many things.

As long as there is a counter on this card, only 1 creature can be summoned a turn.

[doublecross]

Perhaps "Hinders your opponent's ability to summon multiple monsters per turn"
Then, explain the mechanic in the notes.

[TimerClock14]

The card itself needs to have some indication of what it actually does, not just the mechanics about keeping it in play. To get more room on the card so that you can add it, just remove the quanta generation part and lower the cost of the ability by 1.

I'd just like to note here that the quanta generation part is the main ability for these cards, not the secondary. If it did not have the quanta generation, it'd be just another counter to fractal, nor a part of my series.

Sounds good. I'll start reworking the card ASAP.

I reckon this would be a much better counter to Fractal than nightmare,

i have a few name suggestions:

Delimitation
Deadline
Breaking Point
Maximum Breaker


ps: imo Delimitation sounds the best.

It's just odd because it has the ability to add counters to itself, but no indication of what the counters even do.

Or, if you want to keep the generate part, you could change it to Generates 

[TimerClock14]

Or, if you want to keep the generate part, you could change it to Generates 

that works too

[YoYoBro]

Hm, are you sure that  fits? I think you could totally remove the generator part to add something else instead..

[BluePriest]

I dont know if I like this card too much. It will completely change the metagame if implemented. Being able to play only 1 monster a turn completely ruins rush decks. Although I agree rush decks need to be nerfed, I feel this is a really bad way to go about it. More Mass CC is a much better  solution to both fractal AND rush decks.
