But... nothing in this game is psychic. It's all physical.

Also, spells don't count as physical... everything this is good for is Gravity Pull.

Hard to understand and weak.

Yeah, the cost is really quite high for what it does.

I think there should be a shield in the game which prevents creatures from being damaged, maybe not a shield, perhaps just temporarily.

I think he meant to type physical sources. Which I think in turn he meant as damage sources - ie, not Otyughs Devour or Paradox (instant kill), where as Firebolt and Icebolt would be considered physical; even though they are ultimately magical, they still burn (physical) or hit with cold force (physical).

Having said this, the game currently has no distinction between spell effects in terms of classification as either 1) elemental, 2) physical/magical. Well, I think there is a little bit of elemental classification going on; take for example, Holy Light - heal a creature or player for 5hp, if the creature (or player) is of the element (mark) death or darkness, deal 5 damage instead.

The idea is not the best, but it can be improved upon.

Finally, to submit an idea for the shield competition, you need an image, Rossendale.

Okay BobCamel aka Minnakht.

That costs far too much, it shouldn't reflect spells that's just imbalanced, the creatures just shouldn't be affected by them/untargetable. The HP recover is nice though... But that card is so easily destroyed/stolen etc.

Why not submit that as your idea to the shield competition?

That was a suggestion from Kongregate, which is another forum which not everyone visits.

Also, you've been asked to stop doing this. I'm asking you publicly now.

Lanidrak asked, I mentioned I made something like it as an answer. Which part is the problem again?
