yours is A LOT like mine but recreated into gravity and more expensive, oh and you get the double bonus? http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,28846.12.html (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,28846.12.html)

Shard Of courage

Do you already have posted your shard? I didn't see it...
If you don't, can i reserve that? Thanks! 
If not, i can rename my shard into Honor...

I'd just like to point out to all you peeps designing new shards that Zanz specifically said he wanted every shard to be more effective when used with it's element than otherwise.  Thus, Shard of Sacrifice keeps your quanta, and the new Shard of Readiness will have a buff when used on creatures, etc.

My submission, for example, works more effectively when you have plenty of creatures in play.

If your intent is to make something Zanz might actually use, you should consider that concept when balancing your mechanic.

Ah, sorry... I'm fixing my shard now.

EDIT: Done... Here is my new Shard of Courage:

Somebody is more than welcome to steal my idea here, since I'm not going to enter (if i change my mind I'll think something else up) but I was thinking a card that could help find other cards in your deck would be very nice to have.  Something along the lines of this:

"Look at the top five cards of your deck, and put one into your hand.  The opponent looks at the remaining four and puts one into their hand.  Discard the unchosen cards.  If your mark is Aether, look at six cards instead of five." (the card would kill you if you had too few cards in your deck to look at, like drawing with hourglass at 0 cards)

(unupgraded the opponent would get the first choice out of the five or six cards, and you would get second choice)
-could cost maybe 6 or 7 other quanta to play

wow that unupgraded shard could be the death of the player.  I wouldn't even put the unupgraded one in my deck for fear of the opponent taking a badly needed card.

Uhhh... how do you put those shard images into your card?

[Bloodshadow]

But i'm not sure to understand how the switch works. How would you use that shard, for example?

It does exactly what it says. If you target an opponent creature, you basically steal that creature while giving your opponent your shard. It's not too overpowered since he can use it to steal his creature back.

what are you talking about? I haven't submit my idea yet.

edit: now I have (here (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,28846.msg395472#msg395472)) and I don't see any link between the two ideas...

Ohhh, that was obvious!
For some reason i was thinking that it could be used only with your creatures, and so i didn't understood the card.
I like this, it's very  style, and the cloak power guarantees that you can use it at least once if your mark is  .

You don't have to change anything, your shard was up before his
