strange matter/stranglet

[tyranim]

i have an image idea, tho i dont have any freedom to download any software onto this cpu, so i cant use the templates.

strange matter/strange clump
permanent
cost--> 6 /5
effect--> 1 change target creature into a strangelet (sacrifice effect)

strangelet/strangelet
creature
NOT PURCHASABLE OR WINNABLE
attack/health-->  2/2 upped--> 1/2
effect--> converts the space next to it is turned into a strangelet (whether there is a creature or not)

this idea was conceived before aflatoxin was released to the public, i was just trying to find a good way to balance it. it was a little unfortunate aflatoxin came out, because the initial effect was aflatoxin's, so i had to work around that.

It sounds like you could use this to disable the permanents area instead of the creature field, with an raised time cost (like 2 or 3) you could start killing the permanent slots, but make it so it doesn't spread

[bobcamel]

No such thing in this game as "space next to".

Besides, yeah, Aflatoxin seems to do the same thing, just this can instakill, so it's borked to rediculouseness and you should forge it and think of a better idea.

I like this card, it's like an offensive aflatoxin

take out the opponents creatures and fill their field.

So much instakill it's not even funny. I love this card and want it

Sadly, it will never be made, as it is way OP

i was thinking about upping the attack of the both nonupped and upped, but that would then lead to you using it on your own side of the field, and it would then turn into a top tier offensive card like (but much more powerful than) firefly queen. and i was also thinking instead of it targeting a creature, it just puts a stranglet on a random field. its realy not easy to balance a card like this, there is a VERY small window for this card to be balanced, and all it takes is time to find that window.

Here is my version on Strangelet:

Strangelet: 1/1 (6 )
Convert (1 ): Target creature gains -1/-1 and Strangelet gains +1/+1.
In the end of each turn, Strangelet has a 10X% chance of destroying itself.
X = average of Strangelet's ATK and HP.
If Strangelet destroys itself, then deal 2X damage to your opponent.

This card slowly converts each individual atom of the target creature into strange quarks and absorbs the quarks into itself. As a strangelet gets larger it becomes more unstable, and has a greater chance of exploding.

[tyranim]

the logic around this card is based on what i viewed on "the universe" a show on the history channel. it was an episode on the different ways the world could be distroyed, and a stranglet outbreak is one of them. the theory around stranglets is that they turn any form of matter they touch into strange matter, which is the source of stranglets. now, that would be difficult to implement into the game, so i had to tweak the theory a little to make the cards. i mean, a creature turning into a perm is a little uncalled for (tho, if zanz could find a way, it would prove to be rather interesting)

[bobcamel]

Seen something similar. Involved LHC.

Me version, then:

Strangelet: 1/1 (7 )
Convert (passive): Every turn, deal -1/-1 to a random creature and get +1/+1. When a creature dies, generate a Strangelet in its place.
Convert (passive): Damage taken is turned into stat boost.

Similar to BS's.

i kinda like bobcamel's tho i would suggest that it be killable, instead. damage is taken, and it gains attack=to the damage.kind of like the hermatite golem remake attempt. i have another idea on the card, but it may end up being way too complicated, and waste time

[Grimdrome]

If you tell me the idea for the image I could probably make the card for you. And what ever the final version of its ability is

[tyranim]

the card is still in debate, what the final effect will be is anyone's guess

[bobcamel]

Not killable. Whatever you throw at it, it'll just absorb it.
