So this is cheaper than fire shield but does more damage as well as have the potential to rewind the attacking creature? Maybe increase the cost a little. (I also like the pandemonium in the background)

Whoops. For some reason I thought Fire Buckler was :fire 5|4. Just looked it up and realized it's :fire 6|4. I'll change this shield to :entropy 6|4 or even :entropy 6|5 in a few hours if there aren't any other comments.

This card is first and foremost designed to be a more entertaining version of :fire Shield. However, unlike fire shield, your enemy's photons, golems, phoenixes, and deva vus won't usually die instantly - this shield doesn't auto-counter them quite so intensely. OTOH, even your stupid grabbow's stupid quinted Growth creature isn't invincible, which I think is a good thing, because damage shields shouldn't be something creatures can just ignore. Like Thorn Carapace, your creatures are never safe from this shield.

Other versions of the art I am considering:

6|5 :entropy sounds about right. No damage reduction.

Use Adrenaline on an enemy creature with this up, and, in a few turns, their creature is dead, and you have a few mangled TU's of it.  I like it.

The art, as amazing as it is, is a little stupid, no offense.  Is underwear supposed to represent misery?
This thing seemed dead inside. It seemed like an automaton, trying to act like as if it was alive. The effect was unsettling.
Orianna made a sound that supposed to a girl's squeal of glee and hugged The Ball. While it might have been touching, it was unfortunately only horrifying.

Dude, have you ever worn whitey tighties? Misery in a box, right there, and/or your pants.

TBH, I try not to sweat the art too much, since if the card ever makes it into the game, it'll be with brand-new art anyways. My :gravity shield's art was well-received but not due to any large amount of effort; I was honestly rather surprised.
