NAME:
Master Sword Juggler
ELEMENT:
Other
COST:
3
TYPE:
Creature
ATK|HP:
1|3
TEXT:
Flys 1 weapon you replace per turn. 3 charges.
1 : swap equipped weapon and target non-rare flown weapon.

ART:

IDEA:
OdinVanguard
NOTES:
“Today will be surprisingly mundane”

“But with enough practice, sometimes a mundane talent can be sharpened into a valuable skill.”

Just think, with this you could build a pure :rainbow deck!… Your opponent may laugh at first, but a barrage of daggers flying at their face might put them in their place.

The skill has two parts. The creature unreadies after either one is used / triggered.

The first part will make a weapon you have equipped become a flying weapon when you replace it with a new weapon. For the unupgraded version, this will only work for non-rare weapons… after all, would you really trust someone who is just learning to juggle with your shiny expensive collectors items?

The second skill will swap out a target non-rare weapon with one that is currently in your hand. Why non-rare? Note the wording doesn’t specify it has to be one of your own. Stealing rare and expensive things belongs in :darkness and this is more fun as a type other card.

The non-rare juggler will only animate 2 replaced weapons. The master can animate up to 3. There is no limit to the number of times a either juggler can swap weapons.

SERIES:

Whether the glass is half full or half empty is a moot point. It is always filled to the brim. It is only a matter of by what. The real question is: What fills you?
If your zombie plan is
kill -9 `ps l | awk '{print $2" "$3" "$9}' | grep "Z" | awk '{printf("%s ",$2)}'`

So is the first part a Passive ability then?

I really like the card, although I'm kinda struggling to see uses for switching weapon places. I suppose switching vulnerability from PC to CC, but that's about it.

In the unupgraded case, it allows the juggler to work with rare weapons as well, at the cost of an extra turn or additional juggler.
For the upgraded case, its partially there for consistency. It also makes the card a little less sensitive to the order in which you animate things.
E.g. you can animate a non-rare weapon to make room for a rare weapon, then when a creature buff comes along (adrenaline, blessing, etc) you can swap the non-rare and rare weapon so that you can buff the rare weapon.

Example:
I have a novice juggler and an equipped dagger
I play a vampire dagger. The juggler flys the equipped dagger that got replaced.
Next turn, I swap the flown dagger with the equipped vampire dagger and cast blessing on the vampire dagger.
etc.

The idea is to encourage decks to use a large number of non-rare weapons with a handful of rare ones sprinkled in.

Ah, right, forgot about buffs.

Also, what if the equipped weapon is PAd or Morning Glory?

Same thing as animate weapon, except the targeted weapon takes its place afterward.

That should also help make coding the effect less work since the animate weapon effect can get reused.
