ELEMENT:

COST:

Consumes 1 scrap per turn.
NAME:
Graviton Scrap-Hound
ELEMENT:
Gravity
COST:
4 :gravity
TYPE:
Creature
ATK|HP:
X+3|X+9
TEXT:
Creates 2 Scrap-piles if killed.
X = number of scrap-piles you own.
Consumes 1 scrap per turn.

ART:
OdinVanguard

Created using Hexagon and Bryce7
IDEA:
OdinVanguard
NOTES:
"Today everything just seems to fall into place"

"And anything that doesn't will be quickly dragged there by your hounds."



Potentially can have the best cost per stat ratio in the game, but will require quite a bit of work to maintain (especially if you own more than one at a time).

Meant as a heavy hitter for use once a stable scrap economy is up and running.
… So what is scrap / scrap-piles?

Whether the glass is half full or half empty is a moot point. It is always filled to the brim. It is only a matter of by what. The real question is: What fills you?
If your zombie plan is
kill -9 `ps l | awk '{print $2" "$3" "$9}' | grep "Z" | awk '{printf("%s ",$2)}'`

True, but in order to get ahold of scrap, cards you own have to die... effectively its like requiring the owner to continually sacrifice cards.

Why did you use the conjunction 'but'? You're supporting my point, so...

... I thought you were being sarcastic... lol

hazards of text based communication. There's no inflection to indicate *sarcasm*

At any rate, yes it is expensive upkeep, but it could also become an extremely large creature if you have a lot of scrap.
This way, you cant spam large creatures for low cost without them dropping off rapidly.

;D
I thought that the hp for time-frame is defined by decksize and doesn't fluctuate, unless I read it wrong. This card decays each turn unless fed continually. (I do like time frame though, since "Fat Decks" need a little more love)... But, yes balancing cards that have the potential to be very large relative to cost is a tricky thing.
I'm hoping that the upkeep and auto-decay balances it out here.
