Yeah, but it's ET.  His creativity is all graphical, so we cut him some slack on the mechanics.

[Flayne]

so is this actually for the competition or what? im confused 

[EmeraldTiger]

I will make it part of the competition if Zblader allows it. ATM Essence has come up with the best ability IMO.

Question: What happens if the enemy has: Pillars / Towers / Shard / Hourglass / Shield and you use 3 Storm Eels?

Do the already frozen permanents count thowards the total number of froze-able permanents?

[SnoWeb]

Element : Water
Ability : "Generates     each turn. Disable a random non-pillar permanent when it attacks."

I would suggest something like: "Electroshock - Disable a random non-pillar permanent for each successful attack. Generates  otherwise."

[Saynt]

How many turns is the permanent disabled, and by "disable" do you mean freeze, or simply that it temporarily loses its ability?

[EmeraldTiger]

Essence thought of the ability, I will let him flesh the details of it out.
BTW Thank You.

[ZephyrPhantom]

No offense ET, but wasn't it originally my idea? ^^;

Keeping the above two facts in mind, how about :
Element : Water
Ability : "Generates    each turn. Disable a random non-pillar permanent when it attacks."
(Attack should probably be 0-1 in this case)
Alternatively, it could generate    since eels are associated with electricity.

Element : Water
Ability : "Generates     each turn. Disable a random non-pillar permanent when it attacks."


This.

[EmeraldTiger]

Oh, okay I apologize

[Essence]

Yeah, ET.  Go, ZB!  Personally, I think that SW's revision above (disable a random permanent for EACH successful attack) is a great one, as it gives all kinds of fun reasons to try to squeeze Adrenaline in there somehow. 

[EmeraldTiger]

Updated.

Now we can talk cost balance.

How many turns is the permanent disabled, and by "disable" do you mean freeze, or simply that it temporarily loses its ability?

Yeah I kind of assumed it was freeze, but this could be a way to 'delay' permanents.  Can you clarify ET?  I'm partial to freeze, just for the ability to use Shockwave on permanents in a way other than a lucky Ice Bolt.

As for cost balance, I think the cost should be lower or the stats higher.  It depends on whether you want to focus on the quanta generation (lower stats and cost) or the freeze (higher ATK).
