ART: Pearson Scott Foresman (image is from Wikimedia.org) IDEA: Frostguard NOTES: When I play against decks with Eternity, mostly the player uses it to rewind its own creatures to deckout the opponent - the upgraded one would prevent that as well, that is why it would be superior - I think. Again, an explanation. Entropy is often called the 'Arrow of Time' as the Second Law of Thermodynamics (which states that over time the entropy of an isolated system can only increase) is the only way to determine the direction of any process in nature. This is why I think it fits thematically both Entropy and Time. SERIES: -

i guess im not sure why it is a weapon. I know its an "arrow" but i feel like its doing too much. right now it is a weapon, it is an hourglass because of hasten and it protects creatures from reverse time. maybe you should focus it down a bit more. like maybe try to make it a permanent that does something specific against reverse time, like alters its affect or something.

Maybe this could only be used with owls eye? You know an equip on an equip?

^ That's all very true. In your worry that the weapon's attack is rather small and that the use of this card may be limited, you added a third ability 'hasten'. That's all way too crazy + the  entropy cost seems a little random (seriously ).

Additionally, this card seems to be created of your own frustration against 'reverse time' and 'eternity', not out of any belief that this card is necessary to balance all the elements. It's not like there is nothing you can do about reverse time; you can use burrow creatures, quint, anubis, immortal creatures, or small creatures + fractal. There are also other cc cards that other people may hate just as much, including rage potion, thunder, shockwave, etc.

I would simply create a weapon that has the ability to quint creatures as its ability (not all of them at once), kind of the opposite or a lobo.

Congretz. You are now officially addicted to the elements forum.

Interesting idea, but a literal arrow being a weapon?

I know it's weird, but it seemed to be all right to me after a bow itself being a weapon, and useable together with shield...

Interesting idea, but I think Owl's Eye wouldn't be good. Rather Short Bow and Long Bow. Using it on Owl's Eye only would make it require a trio.

Sounds interesting. I picked hasten because it emphasises the flow of time.
