NAME: What ELEMENT: Entropy COST: 3 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 0 | 1 TEXT: When What comes in to play, Mutation is cast randomly per Amethyst Pillar you posses.	NAME: What-no ELEMENT: Entropy COST: 4 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 0 | 1 TEXT: When What-no comes in to play, Improved Mutation is cast randomly per Amethyst Pillar and Tower you posses.

ART: EmeraldTiger IDEA: EmeraldTiger NOTES: Name of this creature is serious, but humorous. When referring to this card to post a question or statement use [], in this manner. [What] is a funny card. This will reduce any confusion. I changed the attack to 0, because of the chance it getting hit by mutation. SERIES: Pillar Counting

ART: IDEA: EmeraldTiger NOTES: Name of this creature is serious, but humorous. I was thinking a higher cost is needed for the upped due the nature affect. SERIES:

The name itself screams humor section.

That's the reason I love it so much

Does "cast randomly" include on opponent's creatures?

yes

Yes it does... had to bite my lip not to burst out laughing... but name aside, mechanic and theme wise it does make for a good card

Compare:



Elf is probably a bit better comparison since it is essentially unlimited use...

Balancing is tricky, furballdn gives a good spot to start, but the fact that this thing can potentially mass spam a very large number of mutation / imporved mutations at random, its tough to get a good formula started.

As a gut reaction, I think its stats are a little low... but then again, I have no idea what to value its skill at.

I do love the idea though. Hillarious name too (I think you should capitalize the "no" on the upped )

(1) I love Entropy and its flavour.

(2) Despite (1), I don't think the game needs more randomized effects to be added. Random, while fun, is toxic to the skill.

(3) Still, if this cards has to be, I think it should cost the same price than Pandemonium, or even a little less for the Upped version. It is rare to see an Upped mutation failing; most of the time, it is a buff. So it means that this card, while controlled by its caster, has high chances to buff your opponent's army.

(4) Based on (2), may I suggest to remove a random component? Maybe just propose a mass mutation that *can* affect all creatures on the field and remove the "tower and pendulums = number of targets" part.

The main focus here is the pillar counting.

I think this last part is highly dependent on the number of creatures in play and the type of deck your opponent is playing.

-Any creature larger than about 5|5 only has a moderate chance of being buffed, even with improved mutation.

-Unless your opponent is playing a bow or packing nova, immo, or SoR, the new skill conferred is very likely to require quanta they won't have access too.

-On the other hand, most players would put this into an army style deck so that they will have a lot of creatures on their side and will likely pack nova, quantum pillars, etc.

Thus, while there is a good deal of risk involved, the player using this card should be the one to receive the greatest benefit.

It will also make a great counter against Immaterial creatures since they will not be affected so the risk would be removed.
