The original idea of the developer is to create a element for each zodiac
at the momentment you can see the representing Zodiac of each element in the oracle.
I would like to enchant this idea and I'm now working on a series of every Zodiac creatures.
all these creatures will be rare cards.

The others are coming,
discuss!


NAME:
Scorpio
ELEMENT:
death
COST:
5
TYPE:
creature (rare)
ATK|HP:
3|1
ABILITY:
venom, infection
NAME:
Scorpio
ELEMENT:
death
COST:
4
TYPE:
creature (rare)
ATK|HP:
4|1
ABILITY:
venom, infection
ART:
twinsbuster
IDEA:
twinsbuster
NOTES:
Infection and venom together fit Scorpio the best. Have considered use "poison" instead of "infection", but it will be overpower. The creatures ingest it will get poisoned, but not enough space to mention in the card text.
SERIES:
Zodiac Series

It's "Infection", not "Inflection". Lots of typos in your post. As for the card, I'd either give it at least 2 or 3 HP or lower the cost and remove Infect, but otherwise it seems okay.

Aether is the prime Element present in all things, providing space, connection and balance for all Elements to exist.
Aether represents the sense of joy and union, and the ultimate potential of all things.

I'll correct all those typo once I've time

for the HP, I just want to make it different from the other zodiac in the series
Scorpio is supposed to be small in size

Scorpio seems a bit underpowered though, make his ability 0 :death and make his price 4 unupped 3 upped. Would be more suiting for an Ultra-Rare, assuming these are going to be like Nymphs, only winnable from oracle.

Comparing this to a nymph, it is perfectly balanced and fine. Ultra-rare doesn't mean it can go be ultra powerful and balanced because it's out there. It's basically a virus that can be used multiple times until your opponent kills it. Lower cost by 1, but don't remove ability cost, that doesn't make sense.

And why does it not make sense? Scorpio is like the God of Poison, so he should have infinite of it.

they are rares that can only be win through spinning in my original idea

so I tried to make them not as powerful as the ultra rares

and I think venom is an expensive ability, just see puffer fish

so I give it 5 cost

week really im not seing any point to count that card as strong take as example Blood sucker
PRO: lower cost
CONTRA:duo element
no rare and at least as strong as scorpio scorpio would been only useuflly quinted but rainbows are high on death quanta na di cant think of any aether death combo with scorpio make him stronger thats it abou 4/4 or at least 3/4 venom isnt that strong as you think  even shrieker rush first they can burrow anyway but lets forget about that 10 dmg 4 life 3 shrieker s would been more then enough to kill you even with 3 scorpios i think it would been preety fine higher his cost make abillity cost for free i mena let him be something dangerous not some weeklish filler
i would even think of a great change like this 10 cost 6/5 venom 0 cost

Even puffer fish has 4 HP. give it some more health so that it could survive at least a thunderstorm :(

also, in the card description thing, u're supposed to take out all the ***s.

Don't see it.

The whole point of nymphs was to create cards that gave more options, but didn't entirely change the game play, I think this one nails that concept on the head. True bloodsucker does this, but adding attack to this and making it a mid range hitter that makes it better than blood sucker.

.... what is the use of this it also is no midranged hitter if you ask me its weak its like a deck that only uses ultihards as damage source its no mid range hitter its just weak in evry point
