Competition: Best Weapon Idea

[Kael Hate]

My Entry an Other Weapon - Pseudocaster | Metacaster

*****************************************************************************************
 Name         : Pseudocaster | Metacaster
 Card Element : Other
 Idea by      : Kael Hate
 
 Level        : Basic
 Summon Cost  : 7
 Type D|L     : Weapon 0|7 Immaterial.
 Text         : Weapon. Immaterial. 7: Add a Random Spell or Creature Card to Hand
 
 Level        : Upgraded
 Summon Cost  : 7
 Type D|L     : Weapon 0|7 Immaterial.
 Text         : Weapon. Immaterial. 7: Add a Random Spell or Creature Card of a favoured element to Hand
 
 History      : This is one of the weapons my Elements Character uses. He is an Unaligned Elemental and draws from all Element types. He is Known for his toolbox of options and ability to use animate weapon at Will.

 Notes        : In the basic version the ability simply chooses a card from the card library that has a type Spell or Creature. You have to hope its useful to you or even castable. In the Upgraded version it checks to see what elements you have most of and also add the condition that the card chosen is of that element. If no element is the highest of all elements then the card chosen will have an element type matching your mark.

My final revision here:

(http://www.screenshotdumpster.com/) (http://www.screenshotdumpster.com/)

- A counter will be shown if there is more than 1 copy.
- When deflaged/stolen, only 1 copy is targeted
- A whole stack of Aether Sword only creates 1 copy.
- When flown:
     - Stats: 2|1 immaterial
     - Only 1 copy is flown
     - The ability is like PU on itself

PLease don't keep updating your posts with new posts, instead, just go to your old ones and update it that way. Just makes it easier on me when I go back and grab them all for the voting.

Steal their pillars, and it's the ultimate OP weapon.  People are already crying about pulverizer.....

Exactly! Zanz is already nerfing the steal card. This would make darkness a full on denial deck.

I commented on this in the linked topic, but it seems more like an idea for a spell that was thrown into a weapon card. Don't get me wrong, I really like the idea, but since it does 0 damage, is it a weapon?

What do others think?

There is no precedent yet for a Weapon that does no damage. They are all swords and Hammers and such that Could be used in a striking manner of some sort. Metacaster is a Scepter or if you would a wand and does not directly attack the opponent with strikes of a Physical or Magical Nature but gives its user the ability to summon creatures and magical effects that can.

Something to think about may be Fire Shield or Fire Buckler. They do not prevent any damage, why are they still a shield?

Ah, decent point on Fire Shield/Buckler. Your weapon has some sort of story behind it, so I won't delve into it too much. I just try to look at how it would fit into the current game, sans stories. Thus, I see it as a great spell and not so much as a weapon.

As a spell you could only use it once.
As a permanent you could have up to 6 in play.
As a weapon you can use only one. (without extra fidling and animate weapon)

To me its a weapon just as a wizard uses a Magic wand and to gain its strong benefit you have to forgo your sword. (or Pulverizer)

Whoops. I meant permanent earlier, and I guess I see what you're saying. Still, you could swing it or throw it at someone and do 1 damage at least...

I haven't figured that out yet myself, but you could simply attach the images like I did (the "Attach" option is a bit below the "Add images" one).

Edit: Thanks, Scaredgirl!
