Spoiler for Dark Forest | Black Forest:

NAME: Dark Forest ELEMENT: Life COST: 3 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each time you receive healing from a single source your opponent takes 1 damage.	NAME: Black Forest ELEMENT: Life COST: 3 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each time you receive healing from a single source your opponent takes 2 damage.

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: Jazzfan27 NOTES: Adds a little offensive punch to your healing cards. For clarification, if you were under SoSa your opp would take 1 damage for each creature that attacks you for Dark Forest and 2 damage each for Black Forest. SERIES:

Spoiler for Clockwork Golem | Minor Clockwork Golem:

NAME: Clockwork Golem ELEMENT: Time COST: 4 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 8 | 4 TEXT: Attack is halved every turn. : Wind Attack is returned to full.	NAME: Minor Clockwork Golem ELEMENT: Time COST: 1 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 4 | 4 TEXT: Attack is halved every turn. : Wind Attack is returned to full.

ART: stevemur IDEA: furballdn NOTES: I've wanted to make a decaying time creature for a long time. Time has RT and Eternity, but not many synergies within itself to make use of it. Additionally, the gears in the art make me envision a type of powerful naturalistic looking golem that still must be wound in order to keep it in tip-top shape. Otherwise, it decays with time. Mechanically speaking, Attack is rounded down when halved after attacking. The attack-halving is passive and cannot be lobotomized while it's Wind ability is Active and can be removed. When attack is dropped, it's max ATK doesn't. If a Clockwork Golem gets a blessing, it will be 11|7 which will turn to 5|7 after attacking, and 2|7 after that. If a blessed golem winds, it will return to 11 ATK since blessing increases the max ATK of a creature. I tried to balance it around Phase Recluse and Flesh recluse and Minor Phoenix in terms of burst fractal damage. I think it's fine since their attack will quickly drop. Even when supplied with constant quanta, the unupped is 3 cards + 4 for a 8|4 creature, pretty balanced. The unupped is 2 cards + 1 + upgrade for 4|4 so that should be fine as well. Mono time can use these with RT for a renewable creature that always comes out powerful (who really RTs deja vu?) Of course, once ATK hits 0, 0 divided by 2 is still 0. SERIES:

Spoiler for Witch's Bottle | Witch's Bottle:

NAME: Witch's Bottle ELEMENT: Darkness COST: 4 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: If target creature receives damage, the source of the damage receives double the amount of damage dealt.	NAME: Witch's Bottle ELEMENT: Darkness COST: 3 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: If target creature receives damage, the source of the damage receives double the amount of damage dealt.

ART: AKarmine IDEA: Pella NOTES: 1) The "source of the damage" refers to the player who cast the damaging spell or the creature that activated the damaging ability.  Yes, that means that if you want to kill your own creature after your opponent cast Antimatter on it, you're going to take a hit in the process. 2) The "amount of damage dealt" refers to the total damage created by the effect, regardless of the HP of the target creature.  If you use Lightning to kill a Skeleton, you're going to take 10 damage, not 2. 3) Witch's Bottle replaces Gravity Pull.  There's too much potential for abuse.  Armagio + 4 Basilisk Blood/Petrify (Auburn Nymph) + Gravity Pull + Witch's Bottle = wiping out all of your opponent's dragons in 1 or 2 turns = way OP If you can produce the quanta, you can use it with GP. That should be sufficiently difficult to pull off not to make this OP. 4) Witch's Bottle is Lobotomizable. 5) This is my first card of this nature.  Any assistance in balancing the cost will be very much appreciated. Very few people have even seen this thread.  Since no one cares, never mind. ****************************** Lore: A witch's bottle, or witch bottle, is a traditional method of protecting a person from evil or evil spirits, dating back to the 17th century in England, if not earlier.  A person desiring protection put parts of her/himself into the bottle--usually hair, nail clippings, or, most often, urine.  The individual then buried the bottle in a safe location, usually a corner of his or her home. Although most commonly used to protect a building, such as the house where the protected person lived, a witch's bottle also could be used to protect the individual directly.  In these cases, the nature of the protection was to send any evil back to its sender, so that the sender actually ending up harming her/himself more than the intended recipient.

Spoiler for Fishing Hole | Fishing Hole:

NAME: Fishing Hole ELEMENT: Life COST: 4 TYPE: permanent ATK|HP: N/A TEXT: Have a 25% chance of summoning a random water creature	NAME: Fishing Oasis ELEMENT: Life COST: 3 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: N/A TEXT: Have a 25% chance of summoning a random upped water creature

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: skotadi phobos NOTES: The effect stacks like SoFr SERIES: N/A

Spoiler for Temporary Shelter | Temporary Shelter:

NAME: Temporary Shelter ELEMENT: Life COST: 3 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: All your creatures without a skill gain the ability: Rest: Do not attack to gain 2HP for each shelter.	NAME: Temporary Shelter ELEMENT: Life COST: 2 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: All your creatures without a skill gain the ability: Rest: Do not attack to gain 2HP for each shelter.

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: furballdn NOTES: "It is an advantage to choose the time and place for battle. In this way you know when and where the battle will take place, while your enemy does not. Encourage your enemy to expend his energy in futile quests while you conserve your strength. When he is exhausted and confused, you attack with energy and purpose. The idea is to have your troops well-prepared for battle, in the same time that the enemy is rushing to fight against you. This will give your troops a huge advantage in the upcoming battle, of which you will get to select the time and place"-The fourth strategem First gut instinct told me that the picture was a temporary reprieve, a simple solace that shines out when times are hard, or overly passive. All vanilla creatures gain the ability Rest, an active skill with 0 cost that can be activated. When a creature uses Rest, they do not attack that turn and permanently gain hp. If there are no Temporary Shelters on your side of the field, creatures will lose the Rest ability. This is a bit inspired by SoP and Purify as well as other Life ideas. This capitalizes upon Life's huge cache of vanilla creatures as well as their fragility. No more will fire shields, spine shields, bone bucklers, or rains of fire wipe out the forest. By carefully preparing, the forest roars out with well rested and anxious creatures. This helps counter wings, dimensional shield, antimatter, and CC. If in the future giving cards becomes a feature, this can also be given to the opponent to deny them of vanilla creatures lest they waste a PC card to get rid of it. This also stacks. For each Temporary Shelter, any creature that Rests gains 2X HP where X is the number of shelters on the side of the field. SERIES:

Spoiler for Forest | Forest:

NAME: Forest ELEMENT: Life COST: 4 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: All Life creatures gain +1|+2 and 25% chance to evade targetting.	NAME: Forest ELEMENT: Life COST: 5 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: All Life creatures gain +2|+2 and 25% chance to evade targetting.

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: Absol NOTES: Forest allows the life creatures to camouflage (evade targetting) and terrain advantage (mass buff). SERIES:

Spoiler for Illumination | Enlightenment:

NAME: Illumination ELEMENT: Light COST: 5 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: All healing on the field is increased by 50%. Does not stack.	NAME: Enlightenment ELEMENT: Light COST: 4 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: All healing on the field is increased by 50%. Does not stack.

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: whatifidogetcaught? NOTES: Today will be illuminating -- even enlightening. It may be dark outside, but you can shine bright. Healing rounds down. Spoiler for specific cards/situations: Antimatter: Healing increases by 50% Vampire: Healing increases by 50%, damage stays the same Antimatter Vampire: Healing increases by 50%, damage stays the same Shard of Sacrifice: No effect Black Hole: Healing increases by 50%, quanta drain remains the same Stone Skin/Shard of Divinity: Healing increases by 50%, MAX HP gain remains the same Heal: 30 HP restored Druidic/Jade Staff: 7 HP restored per turn Empathetic/Feral Bond: 50% bonus on only ONE Bond per turn Shard of Gratitude: 4 HP restored, 7 HP restored with Life Mark Purify: +3 Holy Light/Flash: 15 HP restored, damage unaffected for Death/Darkness creatures Angel: 7 HP restored Miracle: unaffected Luciferin: 15 HP restored Sanctuary: 6 HP restored for only ONE Sanctuary Drain/Siphon Life/Nightmare: Healing increased by 50%, damage is unaffected SERIES: Epic 3 Card Design Competition

Spoiler for Dark Forest | Black Forest:

NAME: Dark Forest ELEMENT: Life COST: 3 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each time you receive healing from a single source your opponent takes 1 damage.	NAME: Black Forest ELEMENT: Life COST: 3 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each time you receive healing from a single source your opponent takes 2 damage.

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: Jazzfan27 NOTES: Adds a little offensive punch to your healing cards. For clarification, if you were under SoSa your opp would take 1 damage for each creature that attacks you for Dark Forest and 2 damage each for Black Forest. SERIES:

Spoiler for Dense Forest | Dense Forest:

NAME: Dense Forest ELEMENT: Life COST: 5 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn, every creature has a chance to become invisible for one turn.	NAME: Dense Forest ELEMENT: Life COST: 5 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Each turn, every card has a chance to become invisible for one turn.

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: Anarook NOTES: Fairly simple, at the end of the turn, a random number of creatures(upgraded includes permanents) become invisible until the start of the next turn. SERIES:

Spoiler for Hidden Bunker | Hidden Bunker:

NAME: Hidden Bunker ELEMENT: Life COST: 4 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Hide: Target a creature you control. Remove it from the field and put in hidden Bunker. Ability becomes : Release.	NAME: Hidden Bunker ELEMENT: Life COST: 2 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Hide: Target a creature you control. Remove it from the field and put in hidden Bunker. Ability becomes : Release.

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: Rutarete NOTES: Releasing the creature heals it of any maladies (including Antimatter). SERIES:

Spoiler for Empty Thicket | Empty Grove:

NAME: Empty Thicket ELEMENT: Light COST: 10 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: No new creatures can come into play. Lasts 3 turns.	NAME: Empty Grove ELEMENT: Light COST: 9 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: No new creatures can come into play. Lasts 3 turns.

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: Pella NOTES: 1) Prevents both players from playing creature cards from their hands. 2) Prevents creature generation effects from any card or ability where the creature comes into play immediately. The obvious ones: - Boneyard | Graveyard - Chimera - Deja Vu | Elite Deja Vu - Fate Egg - Firefly Queen | Elite Queen - Flying Weapon | Animate Weapon - Mitosis - Nymph Queen | Water Nymph - Nymph's Tears - Parallel Universe | Twin Universe - Pharoah | Elite Pharoah - Shard of Integrity Just to be clear: - Aflatoxin - If an infected creature dies, no Malignant Cell is generated. - Malignant Cell - Cells already in play will remain in play without multiplying. - Phoenix | Minor Phoenix - Dies instead of turning to Ash. - Ash - Cannot become Phoenix | Minor Phoenix. - Graboid | Elite Graboid - Cannot evolve into Shrieker | Elite Shrieker. - Mummy | Elite Mummy - Reverse Time can be played, but has no effect. - Skeleton | Elite Skeleton - Reverse Time can be played, but has no effect. - Skull Shield | Skull Buckler - If an attacking creature dies, no Skeleton | Elite Skeleton is generated. - Chaos Seed - Can be played, but PU|TU will not happen. - Pandemonium - Can be played, but PU|TU will not happen. - Mutation | Improved Mutuation - Cannot be played. Turning the effect's 25% kill chance into a 100% chance would be too OP. 3)  Does not prevent effects which generate creatures that do not come into play, such as Fractal, Nightmare, Mindgate, card drawing effects, etc. 4)  Does not prevent alterations in stats or abilities to existing creatures, such as Growth, Acceleration | Overdrive, Quintessence, Lobotomize, etc. 5)  Does not prevent attacks.  Does not prevent death.  (I figured these were obvious, but hey, you never know.) ****************************** I put this in Light because it is one of only two elements that does not have a card or ability on the list in 2) above.  The other is Darkness, and both the art and the ability seem to fit better thematically with Light. SERIES:

Spoiler for Guardian Shrine | Guardian Shrine:

NAME: Guardian Shrine ELEMENT: Life COST: 2 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Your deck size cannot be altered except during your draw phase. : Turn this card to Fate Egg	NAME: Guardian Shrine ELEMENT: Life COST: 1 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Your deck size cannot be altered except during your draw phase. : Turn this card to Fate Egg

ART: E3CDC IDEA: Vineroz NOTES: Deck size cannot be altered except the draw at start of turn. It means when this card is in play, Your creatures are immune to RT. You can't draw using HGs/Time Nymph/Precog/Sundial. Shard of Bravery You play it: Your opponent draws, you don't. Your opponent plays it: Both of you won't draw. Note that the "see your opponent's hand" effect for Precog still works. Sacrifice card and spawn a Fate Egg. Upped card gives upped Egg. As soon as this skill is activated, the player can use drawing skills like normal. Revered as a guardian of the forest, a mysterious creature appears wherever beautiful forests exist. When it disappears deep in a forest, it is said to leave behind an egg it brought from the future. SERIES: Epic 3 Card Design Competition

Spoiler for Peaceful Cabana | Peaceful Home:

NAME: Peaceful Cabana ELEMENT: Life COST: 6 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: - TEXT: You can choose to not attack and draw one card for each creature on your side of the field.	NAME: Peaceful Home ELEMENT: Life COST: 4 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: - TEXT: You can choose to not attack and draw one card for each creature on your side of the field.

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: salox NOTES: The idea is, during your turn, to click on the card to active the peace: not attacking and drawing cards. If you don't want, you can just attack and not use this effect. SERIES: -

Spoiler for Hidden Grove | Hidden Grove:

NAME: Hidden Grove ELEMENT: Life COST: 4 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: If a card would be targeted, destroy this card instead. All creatures cannot take damage from any source.	NAME: Hidden Grove ELEMENT: Life COST: 5 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: If your card would be targeted, destroy this card instead. Your creatures cannot take damage from any source.

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: Drake_XIV NOTES: Prevents damage from Infection While this card is out, all targeting fails and this card is destroyed. Prevents AoE SERIES: E3CDC

Spoiler for Forest Clearing | Forest Clearing:

NAME: Forest Clearing ELEMENT: COST: 2 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Hide all creatures on the edges of you field. Lasts for 5 turns.	NAME: Forest Clearing ELEMENT: COST: 1 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Hide all creatures on the edges of you field. Lasts for 5 turns.

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: calcan NOTES: SERIES:

Spoiler for Paranirvana | Nirvana:

NAME: Paranirvana ELEMENT: Light COST: 5 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Creatures now have Full HP at its limit. Immaterial creatures produce light.	NAME: Nirvana ELEMENT: Light COST: 5 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: Creatures enter Purified and have Full HP at its limit. Immaterial creatures produce light.

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: Hyroen NOTES: All creatures in play now have Full HP at 499. This does not mean that you will automatically have 499HP Armagios as soon as you play them, but that Heals from Guardian Angels can get them there. Immaterial creatures when played will have "light" as their skill and produce 1 every turn. Using Quintessence on a creature will remove a previous skill on a creature to place "light" as their current one. If Seraph uses its ability, it will generate 1 at the end of that turn, but not lose its skill. (gain passive "light") With Nirvana on the field, creatures enter with 1 Purify counter. SERIES: E3CDC

Spoiler for Sunlit Grove | Sunlit Grove:

NAME: Sunlit Grove ELEMENT: Life COST: 3 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: creatures gain a 25% chance to deal +50% damage, ignore shields, and evade targeting.	NAME: Sunlit Grove ELEMENT: Life COST: 2 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: creatures gain a 25% chance to deal +50% damage, ignore shields, and evade targeting.

ART: IDEA: russianspy1234 NOTES: Unlike the shard, bonus doesn't stack. SERIES:

Spoiler for Forest Cottage | Forest Chalet:

NAME: Forest Cottage ELEMENT: Life COST: 4 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: N/A TEXT: Generate and each turn. Life creatures gain +0/+2. Light creatures gain +1/+0.	NAME: Forest Chalet ELEMENT: Life COST: 4 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: N/A TEXT: Generate and each turn. Life creatures gain +1/+3. Light creatures gain +2/+1.

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: majofa NOTES: Not just your average Eclipse clone. This makes Life and Light fun. Use this with Ray of Lights for your generation, and they have 2 or 3 attack! Life creatures get that extra defense they've always needed. Oh, and it provides quanta also. And guess what..... the buffs stack. SERIES: Epic 3 Card Design Competition

Spoiler for Break in the Foliage | Break in the Foliage:

NAME: Break in the Foliage ELEMENT: Life COST: 3 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: All Light and Life creatures gain +0|+2, and may ignore enemy effects.  Absorb   per turn.	NAME: Break in the Foliage ELEMENT: Life COST: 4 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: All Light and Life creatures gain +1|+3, and may ignore enemy effects.  Absorb   per turn.

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: Captain Scibra NOTES: A mirror of Nightfall | Eclipse, but with a kick.  Nothing special, but I thought it would fit.  Put it in Life since I figured it would find better use.  Enemy effects range from spells or abilities cast/activated by the opponent, to shield effects (except DR).  Chance would be 30%.  Stacks. Today is a great day to be alive! You might've been waiting a long time for a day like today.  Now is your chance! SERIES:

Spoiler for Cursed Forest | Cursed Forest:

NAME: Cursed Forest ELEMENT: Life COST: 3 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: : Curse Generate a Devourer	NAME: Cursed Forest ELEMENT: Life COST: 3 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: : Curse Generate a Pest

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: andretimpa NOTES: Today is a great day to be alive! Just remember that some secrets of old are best left alone. SERIES:

Spoiler for Hideout  | Hideout :

NAME: Hideout ELEMENT: Life COST: 5 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: - TEXT: Your quanta pool and your hand can nor be altered during your opponent's turn. Heal 4HP per turn.	NAME: Hideout ELEMENT: Earth COST: 5 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: - TEXT: Your quanta pool and your hand can nor be altered during your opponent's turn. Heal 5HP per turn.

ART: Robin Halioua IDEA: Arthanasios  NOTES: Sanctuary is a powerful defensive/stalling card and I find unfair the fact only has such an anti-Ghostmare, anti-Bhole and anti-Discord. Because of that, and deserve to have an equal effect to buff their stalling capabilities as well as making Ghostmare and Bhole-Discord users think twice before abusing popular ETG annoyances! However, both Hideout versions cost more than Sanctuary in order to prevent becoming (even slightly) weaker. Also, I know +1 HP per turn doesn't seem like a fair buff for Hideout's upped version, but I find being able to make better use of it, since it will be Earth's only in-element, healing-per-turn source and, as such, it can combined extremely well with Stone Skins and (why not?) Enchant Artifacts. LORE: Hideouts are buildings in green forests and rocky mountains who are used as settlements for the occasional hunters who grab their Longbows and Owl Eyes in order to participate in their favourite sport; hunting Cockatrice packs for their precious meat or capturing young Graboids in order to turn them into tamed adult Shriekers. Moreover, Hideouts often live up to their name while providing settler to refugees who had the bad luck to watch their village burning into flames after a Crimson Dragon's attack or a raid of undead Skeletons. EXAMPLE DECKS: Spoiler for Hidden: Mono-Life HideStall A mono-life stall is possible with this card. There is no dire need of rare Shards of Gratitude anymore... Mono-Earth HideStall A mono-earth stall, quite capable of its own. The extra HP space that is granted by Granite Skins is now useful due to healing-per-turn granted by Hideouts. SERIES: none

ART: stevemur IDEA: skotadi phobos NOTES: Life counters would be like purify or poison counters. They'd stack and lose one count at the end of every turn and any PC would remove one, once the counter hits zero the creature dies. SERIES: N/A

If none of the opponent's creature is GPull'd, Check HP of opponent's creature (according to position). If matching attacking creature's attack, place GPull before right before attacking. (no graphical effects) Attacking creature attacks, opponent creature dies. Proceed to 2nd attacking creature and 2.1. If the opponent has no creature whose HP matches with attacking creature's attack, attacking creature attacks player (like in normal circumstances).

Spoiler for Clockwork Servant | Clockwork Servant :

NAME: Clockwork Servant ELEMENT: Time COST: 3 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 8|5 TEXT: Periodic Loyalty: Clockwork Servant's control is switched between players each turn.	NAME: Clockwork Servant ELEMENT: Gravity COST: 3 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 8|8 TEXT: Periodic Loyalty: Clockwork Servant's control is switched between players each turn.

ART: stevemur IDEA: Arthanasios NOTES: Periodic Loyalty: This ability is passive and can't be lobotomised. When you play Clockwork Servant, it comes at your side of the field but at the end of your turn it goes to the other side of the field and it is controlled by your opponent; on your opponent's next end of turn, it comes back under your controll in order to follow the same process again. However, Periodic Loyalty functions only if there is empty space for creatures left. In other words, an opponent's field full of Malignant Cells prevents Clockwork Servant from jumping to your opponent's control next turn.  In general, Clockwork Servant is better combined with good DR shields, Fractals for sudden OTK-style attacks, Alfatoxins and it serves as good Chimera buff. It should be avoided against decks with Immolation (opponent sacrificing your Servant when under his/her control), Mutation (opponent Mutates your Servant when under his/her control in order to gain a new creature), Catapult (opponent launching your Servant back at you when under his/her control) or even Chimera. LORE:  A cheap striker with a great drawback, Clockwork Servant seems problematic in being completely loyal to its owner. Its creator, a powerful Time Elemental and great Wizard known as Dditi, often recieves tons of complaining from his customers and usually accused for sending them poor-quality and glitching automata. The following letter recieved by a Graviton General named Augustus is a perfect such example: "Dear and Respectul Time Wizard Dditi,  Those Clockwork Servants that are labeled as your 'proud and ambitious invention' have proved irritatingly ineffective at combat. Considering their great strength and due to respect to your craftmanship, I filled in my front lines completely of them. And here the nastiest of all surprises comes when just a single minute after the combat started, your ingenius products executed a 180-dergee rotation and started attacking my flat-footed Armagios! If I knew their inability I could have hire Mercenaries in the first place, whose loyalty is unquestioned as long as my treasury is full of Electrum. But I was blinded by trusting your words, of these Servants being 'as fair as scales, as loyal as a coin, as reliable as the sun'. My complete dissatisfaction and boiling rage for your utmost idiocy is unmatched! Your irresponsibilty reaches the lines of betrayal, i dare to say! I hope I will be recieve back my Electrum-filled chests given for those 'tin cans' as soon as possible!"  Yours sincerely, Graviton General Augustus But the anwser given by Dditi is even more impressive: "Yours excellency Augustus,  Actually, the one who should be dissapointed of this story is no other than me. I had really overestimated the intelligence of a Graviton war-veteran. My words just marked the concealed truth. Scales are fair, because they are balanced according to both sides and, as such, serve both sides; coins have always two sides and are loyal to a certain side until they flip over the other one; the sun is reliable and helful to everyone who lives under its light and harmful to everyone who lurks in the shadows. Same with the Clockwork Servants; they support everyone and serve everyone equally. It is utterly your fault for not taking any needed measures for their periodic loyalty. I will grant you bakc your precious Electrum however, as long as every single of my Servants is shipped safely and unharmed back at me.  Yours sincerely, Time Wizard Dditi" EXAMPLE DECKS: Spoiler for Hidden: Winged Servants Your Wings are going to prevent the non-airborne Clockwork Servants of yours striking yourself during the turns they are under your opponent's control. You Owl Eyes can take care of airborne critters able to bypass your Wings and your Dragons are going to join in later and finish off your opponent. Gravity Shield Servants Due to high health of upgraded Clockwork Servant, these Gravity Shields are extremely handy in blocking their attacks as long as they're under your opponent's influence. Moreover, your Otyughs are going to litteraly feast upon anything small enough to bypass your Shield. Titans are for a reliable amount of damage each turn, but replacing them with Chimeras is not a bad idea either. 8|8 creatures are ideal Chimera buffs for a few late-game finishing blows...

ART: AKarmine IDEA: furballdn NOTES: Contrary to what it says, Nymph's Tears is an effect that cannot be chosen. When this spell is cast, it is treated as the player having played a random alchemy spell. If it is Unstable Gas, Black Hole, Luciferin or Precognition, the effect will be activated instantly and treated normally. Otherwise, a targetting reticule will appear for all targettable creatures on the field and when cast, they may be affected with either Quintessence, Liquid Shadow, Aflatoxin, Basilisk Blood, Antimatter, Rage Potion (Elixir if upped), or Adrenaline. If the spell is a targetting one and the player cancels the action, the card and quanta will not be refunded to prevent abuse.

NAME: Witch's Bottle ELEMENT: Darkness COST: 3 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: If target creature receives damage, the source of the damage receives double the amount of damage dealt.

ART: AKarmine IDEA: Pella NOTES: 1) The "source of the damage" refers to the player who cast the damaging spell or the creature that activated the damaging ability.  Yes, that means that if you want to kill your own creature after your opponent cast Antimatter on it, you're going to take a hit in the process. 2) The "amount of damage dealt" refers to the total damage created by the effect, regardless of the HP of the target creature.  If you use Lightning to kill a Skeleton, you're going to take 10 damage, not 2. 3) Witch's Bottle replaces Gravity Pull.  There's too much potential for abuse.  Armagio + 4 Basilisk Blood/Petrify (Auburn Nymph) + Gravity Pull + Witch's Bottle = wiping out all of your opponent's dragons in 1 or 2 turns = way OP If you can produce the quanta, you can use it with GP. That should be sufficiently difficult to pull off not to make this OP. 4) Witch's Bottle is Lobotomizable. 5) This is my first card of this nature.  Any assistance in balancing the cost will be very much appreciated. Very few people have even seen this thread.  Since no one cares, never mind. ****************************** Lore: A witch's bottle, or witch bottle, is a traditional method of protecting a person from evil or evil spirits, dating back to the 17th century in England, if not earlier.  A person desiring protection put parts of her/himself into the bottle--usually hair, nail clippings, or, most often, urine.  The individual then buried the bottle in a safe location, usually a corner of his or her home. Although most commonly used to protect a building, such as the house where the protected person lived, a witch's bottle also could be used to protect the individual directly.  In these cases, the nature of the protection was to send any evil back to its sender, so that the sender actually ending up harming her/himself more than the intended recipient.

ART: AKarmine IDEA: majofa NOTES: Alchemy has been around since ancient times, and is pretty cool if you ask me. (Full Metal Alchemist). Though, this alchemist is more of a nerd and sits in a laboratory. You can choose any of your cards to transmutate, since equal exchange is in effect. When you target one of your cards, it automatically plays the corresponding alchemy card, no extra quanta needed. If it needs a target, you now choose one. If you click to cancel, the effect is lost, but you do gain quanta equal to the Alchemy card. There are so many interesting combos with this effect. Can you think of any really good ones?

NAME: Liquid Ritual ELEMENT: Water COST: 4 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: - TEXT: Sacrifice target Flooding to summon a Liquid Mutant.	NAME: Liquid Ritual ELEMENT: Entropy COST: 3 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: - TEXT: Sacrifice target Flooding to summon a Superior Liquid Mutant.

ART: AKarmine IDEA: Arthanasios NOTES: Liquid Ritual is a spell card that buffs Flooding|Inudation and adds a versality to the element of as well as supporting the already big versality of the element of . Since a 'sacrifice' of Flooding is needed (of course, Inudation can also be a sacrificial target) instead of a 'targeting', this means you must have a Flooding on your side of the field (a hostile Flooding just can't be targeted by Liquid Ritual spell).  Liquid Mutant is like a mutant created by a Mutation effect, but with the following exceptions: 1) Liquid Mutant is always a creature. 2) The cost of Liquid Mutant's activated ability, if any, is priced in quanta. 3) When created, Liquid Mutant stats have a possible minium of 3 and possible maximum of 10. That means a just summoned Liquid Mutant will be a 3|3 creature at worst and 10|10 creature at best.  Superior Liquid Mutant is like a super mutant created by a Improved Mutation effect, but with the following exceptions: 1) Superior Liquid Mutant is always a creature. 2) The cost of Liquid Mutant's activated ability, if any, is priced in :enrtopy quanta. 3) When created, Superior Liquid Mutant stats have a possible minium of 6 and possible maximum of 12. That means a just summoned Liquid Mutant will be a 6|6 creature at worst and 12|12 creature at best. LORE: "I can't trust someone as long as I can't see her face", the Village Chief said. "You can trust me now then, can't you?" The Liquid Ritualist removed her dark blue hood and revealed her exotic aquatic face. "I see... I couldn't imagine the Liquid Ritualist is actually a Water Elemental!", the Village Chief responded. "It is so unlikely for a powerful elemental entity to actually care for lowly humans like us. Then, you may actually indeed have a change against the tyrannical Red Queen!". "Don't forget I won't do this for free. You promised you will let me use your river as a water pillar producing resource. But, first of all, in order to defeat the Red Queen and her army, your villagers must open the floodgates." "What?!", the village elders who were the audience of this secret meeting were obviously shocked by the Ritualist's suggestion. "But, if we open the floodgates, the water needed for our agriculture won't be enough and, most importantly, the whole village will be flooded! Does this have to do with your water pillar rewarding or something?", the elders replied almost simultaneously... "It has nothing to do with my reward! Opening the gates is essential for the defeat of the Red Queen! The river will bring water from the mountains and the artificial lake will be filled once again, but once that tyrannical woman is dead she will never come back!", the female elemental replied with an angry voice, hitting the table with her palm. For a whole minute no one was talking; only staring. Until the Village Chief broke the silence: "So be it! We will put the plan into motion as soon as possible. We should start the village abandonment tonight and the strongest men are going to come with me to the floodgates. The Red Queen awaits to collect her tribute tomorrow night, but in the end she will receive only payback for all our suffering these years!",  the whole audience applauded him...  "Where is my tribute, you foolish mortals? Except if you wish to feel the wrath of a Red Nymph!", the Red Queen said in a demanding voice to the villagers lying on ground, after being seriously burnt by her fiery minions.  "Your cruelty will end tonight, Red prostitude!", said a young villager with all his remaining strength only to be turned into ash by her ragepot flames. A fellow farmer managed to stand up and attacked the Queen with a Dagger, but it was easily blocked by her Tower Shield and easily beheaded via her Fahrenheit. "Ok, you piece of trash... Minions, burn the village! Turn it into a big pile of ash with flames who will make this night bright like a day!" Red Queen's army fully occupied the recently abandoned village, starting to brurning it down. But this proud show of power will be proven her greatest fault as soon as the floodgates open and the running mass of water covers the village's streets and alleys, dragging the fiery army down into a liquid damnation. Only the higher place where a surpised and shocked Red Nymph stood stayed dry and she was the only to survive, along with other 4 Lava Golems who served as her elite guard. "Have you brough the vials I've asked for?", an impatient girl dressed in blue robes asked the Village Chief while beholding the full moon that appears behind the clouds of a night sky; a full moon was really helpful tonigh, since it had slighly risen the water level, making the flooding attempt much more reliable to succeed. Furthermore, a full moon enhances the power of the spell the young elemental was going to perform... "Here they are. Please put an end to her tyra...", the Ritualist jumped into the strong current of the flood before the Village Chief even managing to finidh his words. By swimming into the hostlie waters with an ease only a water elemental could handle, she appears in front of the Red Queen. "So, you must be the Liquid Ritualist the villagers told me about. They also told me you will end my life; the pitiful words of pitiful existents right before they die!", the Red Queen talked with her well-known arrogance. "And how exactly are YOU going to kill ME?" "But I am not going to kill you.", the Liquid Ritualist replied with confidence. "THESE are going to kill you...", and by the time she said these words and placed the three vials she recieved later, the whole water of the flooded area started to moving and filling in these vials. As the village elders said later, it was very impressive to stare at the way such a great mass of water was magically able to fill in such tiny little empty bottles, completely drying out the surrounding flooded area, and then smashing these bottles into little pieces in order to forge three magnificent entities. The first entity was a Squid able to move on the ground as easily as it could swim in the water; the second one was a Crawler, one of those who lurk in the deep abyss of the ocean, finally, the third one was a Toadfish that floated on thin air instead of floating on the surface of the sea. "What a joke! Are these lowly critters going to be my demise? I don't think so. Lava Golems, attack!", the Red Queen shouted to her elite guards, only to see them being destroyed by a repeated strike of Liquid Ritualist's Ice Bolts... "Damn you! But still, you must be all out of water quanta right now. After slaying your silly pets, you are next, Luqid Ritualist!" "Indeed I am low on quanta, but dealing with my three creatures it not as easy as you may think...", a calm reply coming from the water elemental. "Just the nonsensical words of a little aquatic girl who is going to perish in the next minute, hahahahaha!", the Red Queen says mockingly while delivering a slash to the poor Arctic Squid... or not... By the time she was going to deliver her strike, she noticed her Fahrenheit was missing... holded by one of the Squid's tentacles. Did the Squid had just 'stolen' it? But how? Trying to surpass her shock, the Red Queen tried to ragepot the Blue Crawler... but a tirquoise light appeared and her ability fails. Had she was 'lobotomised' by the Crawler? But how... "How is this... how is this even possible!? These creatures don't have abilities like these!", shouted the Queen, completely losing her previous calmness. "You still don't you get it, right? These are not normal creatures of their type. They are... Liquid Mutants! Powerful versions of their lesser cousins, able to use abilities their kind only could dream of!", the Ritualist explained.  Frightened, the Red Queen cowers behind her Tower Shield. Finally, the Toadfish delivers a strike that completely bypass her shield, fatally wounding her. She was already dead when she reached the ground. The tyrannical nymph was no more... EXAMPLE DECKS: Spoiler for Hidden: Crying Liquid Mutants A mono-water based on powerful Mutants and Nymph Queens to rush your opponent to death.

I got bored and reviewed all the Foresty cards. You may not like your review, but hey, it's your card.  8)

Spoiler for reviews:

- Fishing Hole | Fishing Hole -
This card completely ignored the picture, as it depicts no place to fish....
The ability would be decently fun, but is also really weak... unless you got a squid, you couldn't use its ability outside of a trio or rainbow and, on top of that, most water creatures have low attack. (0, 0, 1, 2, 3, 6, 9)
25% is way too low a percentage for how much this card costs to play and use.

Fun 4/10
Playability 1/10


- Temporary Shelter | Temporary Shelter -
The picture is well used on this one.
When I first read this card, I thought it meant the owner of the creatures gains HP, but the description says otherwise. +2 health to creatures at the expense of not attacking seems very weak. It could be used as a decent counter to some decks, but in comparison to SoP, it doesn't give any attack and only works on vanilla creatures and creatures can't use it the first turn they're put out.

Very uninspired name.
You didn't put in the description if the effects stack, making it hard to really determine the strength of the card; so I'll assume it doesn't stack.
I can see this card being used a lot. The bonus in attack and health combo'd with the smaller creatures would give Life a nice extra punch. Life creatures are generally underquanta'd for their stats, so boosting them even more can make them very lethal. Also having evasion could make them a nice contender. The biggest problem is that monoLife is very weak to Dimensional Shields and Wings, and since you'd be playing mostly Life creatures with this, you wouldn't many options for other cards, possibly just duo'd with PC. The unupped version is pretty weak though.

Shine bright... so it works. Yay for one of the few Light cards.
Mass boost to healing. Heal now restores 30HP. Does it round up or down?
The biggest thing I don't like is that it's in the same element as Sanctuary. That'd give the player 6HP/turn, for 36 total a turn. Duo it with SoG and you have a whopping amount of healing.

- Dark Forest | Black Forest -
This card title ignores 75% of the picture (including the center portion). I'm not sure how a nice calm forest setting with a cottage would inspire damage.
Haven't we seen this card a lot before? ... In many different elements in the CI&A section?
Life doing damage based on healing.. This should very much be a darkness card.. it even has 'Dark' and 'Black' in the titles. This card would take a very dedicated deck to make it work. You would need numerous healing sources. 6 of these and 6 Sanctuaries could do up to 36 (72 for upped). It would make for a very annoying deck.

That forest doesn't look too dense to me...
What is the percentage chance of a creature becoming invisible? If it's high, this card is borderline playable.. if it's low, this card would never be used.

The name can fit.
When it's hidden, I assume it becomes untargetable by abilities and your opponent, like Burrow? It also doesn't attack? Or is the creature completely gone and you use the ability on the Hidden Bunker to put it back in play? The usage of this card would be very limited.. maybe in a Pandemonium duo?

- Empty Thicket | Empty Grove -
Name works.
By itself, it seems like a decent idea, but when combo'd with other cards, it can become a little too powerful. Dims, healing, and this can equal lots of turns of no damage. Usually with Dims, you don't put creatures down while they have their chain going. This card would force them to do so or pay for it for up to 18 turns. It'd have to have a floating effect, like Santuary, or you could Deflagration it, put down a bunch of creatures, and then put another Empty Thicket up. The cost makes it difficult to play, but stall decks can usually handle higher costing cards.

Name works.
This card does a lot, but none of it particularly well...
Hourglasses are a better Reverse Time counter and Eternity is better deck out protection. So you can just play those plus Fate Eggs and duo Time with something else.

- Peaceful Cabana | Peaceful Home
Name works, since Cabana could mean Cottage or Cabin.
This is a card that would take a bit of playtesting to see its full effect. Dumping your hand, then filling it up would probably be too powerful, especially if you drew the cards immediately.

Good name.
It's ability to stop AoE is good, though any random targeting, by you or your opponent would remove this card, leaving all the creatures open to damage. This card stopping yourself from targeting seems like it'd limit your options too much, while only being an even card tradeoff with your opponent.

Great name.
Flooding protection. The cost is good since this card is really hard to use and requires a lot of creatures to be effective. It provides protection starting with the 6th creature, meaning you already have 5 creatures out... If you don't have an advantage by then, you may need to rethink your strategy, especially since this doesn't protect against AoE. The animation could be cool though.

- Paranirvana | Nirvana -
Name is fine.
The wording could be a little better, like: 'Creatures can heal past their maximum health while this card is in play.' It probably wouldn't see much play since it's not really good at what it does. If some other cards were added to the game, then maybe.

Name is good. I'm not sure how being in a well lit are will help with evasion.
A Life card that gets around shields would be a welcome edition. Though you did just copy/paste the shard onto this card a say they don't stack. What's the evasion %? With the percentage being low, this card would see moderate play, when PC is not an option.

Name is good.
For Light creatures, the evasion would be the thing most sought after. It'd help avoid Antimatter, Reverse Time, Freeze, and Basilisk Blood, among other things that hurt high cost creatures.
The buff in attack for the upped one is decent, for RoL/Mitosis deck. Needing Light every turn really hurts the card.

Could've fooled me.. I guess that's why it's cursed.
Mitosis Devourer on a stick? Too strong. Devtosis' weakness is killing the creatures before they can spawn more. This needs repeatable CC and PC to stop effectively.

*Looks at text of Sanctuary*
Hey, why not give Life another healing permanent? Now you can duo Sanctuary with Hideout and make your opponent cry. And Earth doesn't need a healing card like this, otherwise Stone Skin becomes too strong.
