Skill of the Elemental

Original Idea by Kamietsu; Inspired By Trial |  Art from ETG, Kamietsu; Inspired By Trial

It was a dark night, long ago, when the Elemental War began. Every Element had every other Element reigning down on it with no mercy. Some battles were won, others lost, and mass destruction had fallen over the lands. On the night of 1.30 DE(During Elements) the creator of the world looked down on the fighting Elementals. With a deep breath, the creator shouted down blessing from up high and enchanted the Elementals in hopes they would survive better. Each blessing granted the Elementals a special ability to help them survive the war, or bring it to an end quicker.

ART: Elements the game IDEA: Darkrobe NOTES: For the Skill of the elemental competition. Im actually liking this Mark competition a lot. Its nice to think up ideas that wouldnt normally fly as regular cards. This is my third submission.As the card says, you get to see what you and your opponent will draw over the next two turns, should help with mindgate and with general play managing. SERIES:

Spoiler for Hidden:

NAME: Mark of the Archmage ELEMENT: Aether COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn is generated. : Arcane Blast Discard 2 spells from your hand. Deal 5 damage to target.	NAME: Mark of the Archmage ELEMENT: Aether COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn is generated. Gain 1 extra when played. : Arcane Blast Discard 2 spells. Do 5 damage.

ART: Zanzarino and Kamietsu IDEA: pikachufan2164 NOTES: Submission for the "Skill of the Elemental" Competition. Spells and permanents are the few cards that aren't always played when the player has enough quanta to pay for them. Mark of the Archmage allows the player to turn those excess spells into makeshift Lightnings. At the cost of card disadvantage, Arcane Blast can be used defensively (to remove high-threat creatures) or offensively (as direct spell damage). Details: Exactly two spells must be discarded for Arcane Blast to activate. No more, no less. Arcane Blast can't be activated if the player has fewer than two spells in hand. Mechanic: When activated, the player must choose exactly two spells to discard from their hand, then chooses a target (either a creature or a player) to deal 5 damage to. SERIES:

ART: Mark Idea Competition Thread IDEA: Arum NOTES: I was just thinking of how Aether doesn't really have this card, except in a form of Mindgate. I thought this would be better, as it only targets things on field, but you won't be getting weird cards SERIES:

Spoiler for Air:

Spoiler for Hidden:

NAME: Mark of Liberty ELEMENT: Air COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn   is generated. : Evade Target airborne creature evades this turn.	NAME: Mark of Liberty ELEMENT: Air COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn   is generated. Gain 1 extra when you play this card. : Evade

ART: Elements the Game, Kamietsu IDEA: Hyroen NOTES: Skill of the Elemental Competition Evade works for Mark of Liberty as it does for Shard of Freedom, however Mark of Liberty expands to any airborne creature. The evade component of Shard of Freedom only includes Air creatures. While Evade is a component of the Shard of Freedom it has not been incorporated into any other card as a skill that can be activated. Perfect for all FW decks and ideal for Air's frail creatures. Cards like Rewind, Antimatter and Parallel Universe may now have some issues against Air. Can target only your airborne creatures. SERIES:

Spoiler for Hidden:

NAME: Mark of Riders on the Storm ELEMENT: Air COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn is generated. : All your creatures gain flying and +1/+0 until the end of turn.	NAME: Mark of Riders on the Storm ELEMENT: Air COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn is generated. : : All your creatures gain flying and +2/+0 until the end of turn.

ART: Zanzarino and Kamietsu IDEA: hainkarga NOTES: Submission for the "Skill of the Elemental" Competition. How it works: It gives a temporary damage buff to all your non-immortal creatures on the field, also making them able to bypass wings shield. Why is it useful ?: It gets stronger and stronger as you field more creatures. So it is useful in a, say, fractal deck. It can consume the quanta that itself produces, so it can find a place in any color duo deck. The flying portion can also be used as a counter card to wings decks. Concept: Fury of air unleashes a gigantic storm, levitating your creatures giving them a ride on the storm, raining them upon your enemies. Riders on the storm Riders on the storm Into this house we're born Into this world we're thrown Like a dog without a bone SERIES:

Spoiler for Hidden:

NAME: Mark of Wind ELEMENT: Air COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn is generated. : Wind All enemy airborne creatures cannot harm you for 1 turn.	NAME: Mark of Wind ELEMENT: Air COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn is generated. Gain 1 extra when you play this card. : Wind

ART: Zanzarino & Kamietsu IDEA: Zarj NOTES: The Elemental War, as it was called, had disrupted the forces of nature. All Elemental Kingdoms had fought for superiority over the world. The brutal war continued for many years, with no winner in sight. All hope seemed lost, until the blessings from the Creator sparked a new hope within the hearts of the Elemental Kingdoms. "The Air Nomads who took shelter within the skies had found themselves safe from the attacks from below. They remained safe and took an active role in the great war. However, the mighty powers of the Dragons and the airborne creatures of their enemies penetrated their defenses fairly easily. Who would have thought that the Air Nomads would be outclassed in their own territory? It wasn't until a special power was granted to them by the Creator of the World. A power that would grant them supremacy over the skies. "   SERIES: Skill of the Elemental

Spoiler for Darkness:

Spoiler for Hidden:

NAME: Mark of Deception ELEMENT: Darkness COST: - TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: - TEXT: Each turn is generated.   : Deception This mark acts as if it was from target element as well.	NAME: Mark of Deception ELEMENT: Darkness COST: - TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: - TEXT: Each turn is generated. Gain 1 extra when you play this card.   : Deception

ART: Kamietsu IDEA: Shantu NOTES: This effectively gives you a way to use multiple shards to their full potential, and any other future cards that may give you a bonus depending on your mark. It works like this: You activate the skill and the usual targeting crosshair appears on each element of your quanta pool. You select one and your mark becomes a 'dual mark': looks like half this and half that. After that all cards that gives bonuses/penalties/other stuff depending on your mark will 'think' you have the appropriate mark and thus grant the bonus/penalty. However, despite appearing like a dual mark, only quanta will be generated. The ability is reusable but can 'contain' only one element at a time. Example: You have Mark of Deception. You use a Gratitude/Void/Divinity deck. You have multiple Voids and Gratitudes on the field, so you have the mark on Darkness/Life currently. You have multiple Divinities in your hand, so you decide it's worth to lose the SoG bonus for a turn to boost your max health by a lot more. You spend the 2 and select Light (now your mark becomes Darkness/Light) and now cast all the SoDs in your hand, each granting you 24 hp while still doing 3 damage with Void. Next turn you realise you need the healing and switch your mark back to Life and enjoy the 5 hp healing. And why would this be good? Well, Shard of Void is generally seen as a weak card; this could certainly increase its potential. This mark ability could also increase the amount of 'mark affinity' cards in the future. SERIES: -

ART: Kamietsu IDEA: Xenocidius NOTES: Simple, thematic, easy. Your weapon and shield slots are hidden from the opponent and cannot be targeted. SERIES:

Spoiler for Hidden:

NAME: Eclipse Prime ELEMENT: Darkness COST: TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn is generated. : Obscure Deactive your opponent mark for 1 turn.	NAME: Eclipse Prime ELEMENT: Darkness COST: TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn is generated. Gain 1 extra when you play this card. : Obscure

ART: Kamietsu IDEA: karis NOTES: um....    i'm don't really sure can my card get in this (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,38760.0.html) competition.  cuz i don't see other one use kind of name other than "mark of ***"     seriously.   i don't even sure Kamietsu will come and check this topic as it's a competition topic.     my concept for all mark ability card is 'prime'.   not much to say.   really.  i just don't want to have 'mark of'  for my card name.   and it's not in rule to do,  so it's prime.   just as i said before. feel little sad cuz it already have card name like this.   but i still think "eclipse" suit this ability the best.  Darkness than can even turn white in to black.  it's power is to conceal thing that normally you can't touch it.  your opponent mark. but basically.  this card just stop your opponent to generate 1 quantum for that turn.   turn pendulum to work just like pillar.  reduce the power of some shard and some weapon.  Just obscure.  SERIES:

Spoiler for Death:

Spoiler for Hidden:

NAME: Mark of the Grave ELEMENT: Death COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn is generated. : The Grave claims back target death creature and poisons(1) the opponent.	NAME: Mark of Necropolis ELEMENT: Death COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn is generated. : Necropolis claims back target death creature and poisons(2) the opponent.

ART: Zanzarino and Kamietsu IDEA: hainkarga NOTES: Submission for the "Skill of the Elemental" Competition. How it works: Each turn, for one quanta: 1-) It destroys target death creature. 2-) It puts 1 (unupped) or 2 (upped) poison counters on the opponent. It might destroy any death creature. friend or foe. Why is it useful ?: It is like catapult but in death fashion. (And frankly, sacrificing creature should be more of a death ability). Poisons the opponent when your death creatures are stuck either by a shield or antimatter. It also DOES trigger death effects so you will buff your BW, graveyard, soul catchers, vultures. Concept: The death creatures belong to the land of the dead. They are always haunted and cursed by the call of Necropolis. At one point they can no longer endure and their souls are fiercly pulled back to their grave while leaving their rotting poisonous waste behind. SERIES:

Spoiler for Earth:

NAME: Mark of Protection ELEMENT: Earth COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn   is generated. Gain 1 extra when you play this card. : Fortify

ART: Elements the Game, Kamietsu IDEA: Hyroen NOTES: Skill of the Elemental Competition For now Fortify will only increase your Damage Reduction if 2 conditions are met: A shield is equipped Your shield reduces damage by a fixed amount (Shield[1], Skull Shield[1], Emerald Shield[1], Ice Shield[1], Titanium Shield[2], etc.) If this is too limited I will expand this to include any and all shields. In this case, if a physical attack goes through while Fog Shield is equipped it will be reduced by 1 damage. I would personally prefer not to, as it makes less thematic sense. Fortify will be able to affect immaterial shields with the understanding that Fortify affects your self/shield slot (similar to Flying Weapon), and thus disregards immateriality. SERIES:

ART: Elements the Game IDEA: Drake_XIV NOTES: "Skill of the Elemental" Submission We've all seen a Mark card at least once, right?  If so, I don't need to explain the first half of either of them. Fortitude last for one turn.  During which, your creatures, permanents, quanta, and hand can not be affected.  This also affects your actions since, once Fortitude is activated, you cannot target your own cards, use Nova | Supernova, or use any extra drawing via Precognition.  Of course, passive quanta generating from creatures and pillars are unaffected by Fortitude.

The brutal war continued for many years, with no winner in sight. All hope seemed lost, until the blessings from the Creator sparked a new hope within the hearts of the Elemental Kingdoms. "The beings of the Earth Kingdom, or as they call themselves, the Earth Natives, were the first beings to walk the Earth. The Earth Natives have always valued defense and protection over strong attacks. They attack at the right moment and with strong precision. However, they are often hindered by the amount of energy consumption it takes to resurface from the ground. That energy, which could have been spent on their defense and health becomes less valuable. It wasn't until the great Creator granted them a power. A power that allowed them to resurface to the Earth in an instant and add the final blow to their enemies."   SERIES: Skill of the Elemental

ART: Zanzarino and Kamietsu IDEA: pikachufan2164 NOTES: Submission for the "Skill of the Elemental" competition. This one's for you, Napalm <3 A defensive side of Fire. Incinerate your own creatures to remove debilitating status conditions from them. Yes, you can Incinerate your own Immofodder to make 'cheap' Phoenixes, but it still costs you 6 and two turns to get to the final product. It's a rather steep cost to save your own creatures, but the option is there, and it's reusable. Details: Both unupped and upped versions will Incinerate creatures into unupped Ashes (which will rebirth into unupped Phoenixes). The newly-Incinerated Ash is treated as if it was just summoned. Interactions: Does not trigger death effects. Any status effects (Freeze, Adrenaline, Gravity Pull, etc.) are removed. Mechanic: When activated, Incinerate puts a targeting cursor over all of the player's own targetable creatures, and he or she can choose to turn one of them to Ash. SERIES:

ART: Kamietsu IDEA: Zblader NOTES: "Sir, what shall we do with this raw power? The sages claim it safe for use, and that the Great One Zanzarino sent this blessing himself." "Hmmm... well, Lieutenant, if this had been a war of three generations ago, I would've wished for peace. For enlightenment, a greater understanding upon all elementals." "That sounds wonderful, General, but what do you plan to use it for now?" "For a different kind of peace - one where the Light shines on everything and never leaves. If we are to end this war, we much win it through force that our opponents have taught us." A Mark for Light that converts card costs to . This allows Light to utilize other elements cards and more flexible duos, trios, and quartets, with it's ability to convert necessary cards as needed to smooth out quantum control or have your Light pool as an "emergency source" in case your other quantum pools run low.

NAME: Mark of Time ELEMENT: Time COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn is generated. :  Relapse Target card cannot use ability.	NAME: Mark of Time ELEMENT: Time COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn is generated. Gain 1 extra when played. : Relapse Target card cannot use ability.

ART: Elements the Game IDEA: Drake_XIV NOTES: "Skill of the Elemental" Submission We've all seen a Mark card at least once, right?  If so, I don't need to explain the first half of either of them. Okay, Relapse affects not only active abilities, but passives.  For example, if Relapse were used on a Mummy, which is then hit by a Reverse Time, it would go back to the hand.  This is in a way to slow Singularities, too, when considering this. These abilities are disabled for a full turn, so if you target your opponent's creatures, they cannot use their ability until their next turn. This is only countered by Shard of Readiness. SERIES:

ART: Elements the Game IDEA: Kakerlake NOTES: Delay stacks with Turtle Shield: If a slowed Creature runs into a Turtle Shield, it's delayed for 2 Turns. Does not stack with BB or Freeze. This is a one time effect, the creature won't be slowed anymore after one attack. But it can be slowed again. SERIES: Made for the Skill of the Elemental Competition.

NAME: Mark of Warp ELEMENT: Time COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn is generated. Gain 1 when played :TimeWarp. Create a copy of the target creature at the bottom of your deck.

ART: Zanzarino and Kamietsu IDEA: hainkarga NOTES: Submission for the "Skill of the Elemental" Competition. How it works: Each turn, for three quanta, it can target a creature and create a copy of it at the bottom of your deck. Parallel universe creates a copy of the target on the field. Eternity moves the target on top of owners deck. Mark of Warp creates a copy of the target at the bottom of your deck. Why is it useful ?: It can be used much like eternity; to prevent deckout. Eternity can lock down opponent's drawing, can deal damage, lets you mitigate damage by rewinding an expensive creature and can nullify your antimattered creatures. Warp of time can do none of those things but each turn it can add creatures into your deck to increase your offense which eternity can't do. So they have very different uses. Concept: You distort the time and enslave the target creature's copy from another time. It is like traveling back through time (say to yesterday) and abduct a copy of yourself. In theory this can create an alternate timeline since it is otherwise a paradox. SERIES:

Spoiler for Water:

Spoiler for Hidden:

NAME: Mark of the Alchemist ELEMENT: Water COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn is generated. : Transmute Gain 1 quanta of one element.	NAME: Mark of the Alchemist ELEMENT: Water COST: 0 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn is generated. Gain 1 extra when played. : Transmute Gain 1 quanta of one element.

ART: Zanzarino and Kamietsu IDEA: pikachufan2164 NOTES: Submission for the "Skill of the Elemental" Competition. Yes, it's this ability again. Water is reliant on "forced duos" to utilize its synergies with other elements, and the Transmute ability tries to do some quanta fixing to relieve some of that dependence, and also smooths over minor quanta issues. The ability is quite flavourful when put on the Mark, as it exemplifies a Water elemental's ability to adapt to the styles of the other elements, much like the cards of its own element. Why is it the Mark of the Alchemist? Water's alchemy card is Nymph's Tears, which is able to generate Nymphs that can produce the effects of an alchemy card -- this connection makes the name quite fitting. Mechanic: when the Transmute ability is used, a targeting cursor appears on each of the quanta pools belonging to the player with the Mark of the Alchemist. Selecting a quanta pool will add 1 quanta to that particular pool. Obviously only usable once per turn. Balance: Theoretically, a 1:1 conversion ratio makes Mark of the Alchemist functionally equivalent to a regular mark of any element at any time (for the purposes of this 'enhanced mark' competition, it would be fine, but in regular use, would make normal marks obsolete). Currently considering increasing the ability cost to for 1 quanta generated, but it looks underpowered with that conversion rate. SERIES:

ART: Kamietsu IDEA: Pineapple NOTES: "if you have" means the same thing as "if the number of cards in your hand is" Upgraded card's ability is exactly the same as the unupgraded ability, with the difference between the cards being that the upgraded card generates 1 quanta when played. SERIES:

ART: Zanzarino & Kamietsu IDEA: Zarj NOTES: The Elemental War, as it was called, had disrupted the forces of nature. All Elemental Kingdoms had fought for superiority over the world. The brutal war continued for many years, with no winner in sight. All hope seemed lost, until the blessings from the Creator sparked a new hope within the hearts of the Elemental Kingdoms. "The Water Drifters who dwell deep within the seas of the World have always adapted well to various situations. They hold powers that allow them to shape the field. They have proven themselves over and over in the great war. They are well respected and feared by

[Kamietsu]

So, and automatically make it through?

Yes, since they are the only ones to make them for those elements, they will automatically move through to the final voting.

looooool. Why even include options to vote for them then?

I would forget about them otherwise.

Congrats to the 15(some ties) Finalists. The final vote will be up soon.
