NOTES:
Maybe could be under fire, but it's late and I figured Light was the best representation since the "radiation" of the solar flare would reign down from the heavens, etc.
Just some idea I had when my light blew up.
For the cost, I think that it's reasonable, though the stats could be lowered for less quanta cost or increased depending how you folks see it.

Not a bad theme :)

I think it may be a little overpriced, especially since it's only temporary, but perhaps a field full of RoL would really like this card.  A mass buff card other than Nightfall would be cool :)

Before you consider submitting to the Crucible, don't forget you need some sort of image, if you don't want to make it, request art, or try a free stock website like http://www.sxc.hu/

Happy card making and keep it coming

Okay. got it now.

at the end of the 4 turns, each light creature assuming no resistance will deal 20 extra damage.
Each RoL with this will deal 24 damage at the end of 4 turns.
yeah.

The wording in the card says that " +2|+1 each turn for 4 turns"

i think i did.

4 turns means +8/+4 total. RoL already has 1/1. So,it deals 9.

Btw, a +3/+3 Blessing makes any creature deal an extra 12 damage in 4 turns and an extra 21 damage in 8 turns while costing one fifth the quanta.
Just saying.

@OT: Suggestion - make the duration shorter so you can drop the cost and possibly increase the buff amount.

turn 1:
RoL's damage is 1+2   
total damage on opponent is 3

turn 2:
RoL's damage is 3+2
total damage on opponent is 3+5=8

turn3:
RoL's damage is 5+2
total damage on opponent is 8+7=15

turn 4:
RoL's damage is 7+2
total damage on opponent is 15+9=24

turn 5:
RoL's damage is 1
total damage on opponent is 24+1=25

Okay I think i got my second sentence's wording wrong in my first post.
It should be RoL will have dealt 24 damage at the end of the 4th turn. I apologise for that.

blessing is a better long term buff, but this with 5 RoLs can wipe out the opponent in 4 turns.

Is the card destoyed after 4 turns or does the effect loop?

The card will be destroyed of course.

As for decreasing quanta and time of effect, would you maybe recommend dropping it to 6 for unupped, for maybe 2 turns and do +3/+3 and 8 or upped for 3 turns with the same +3/+3? I just woke up so I'm confusing myself with the math right now lol.

My main thought on this was to implement it in a rush type of scenario, drop a few quick RoL's and then play this for some quick and heavy damage. Luciferase could even come in handy too now that I think about it, play a bunch of frogs then this card and watch your frogs grow.

Hm? Is the card text meant to be "light-emitting creatures" and not "Light creatures"?

Hmm...maybe light-emitting might be a bit OP. I'll have to think about that; what are your thoughts about it?
