ART: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:ESO_-_The_double_asteroid_Antiope_%28by%29.jpg cropped IDEA: russianspy1234 NOTES: Strikes a square (empty/full creature/perm ok, but not shield/weapon) If Permanent: Destroyed If Stack: 1 from stack is destroyed. If creature: 4 damage + 1 per each additional square affected. Each adjacent square (yours included if in front row) to target: 20% chance of also being affected. All creatures hit are hit for the same amount of damage calculated based on the original target + # of additional affected. Each Square affected becomes unuseable. SERIES:

NAME: Asteroid ELEMENT: Earth COST: 3 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: A random space is struck and oblitirated.	NAME: Asteroid ELEMENT: Earth COST: 6 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: TEXT: A random space of the opponent's is struck and oblitirated.

ART: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:ESO_-_The_double_asteroid_Antiope_%28by%29.jpg cropped IDEA: russianspy1234 NOTES: Will hit and destroy a random space (creature or permanent) destroying that space and everything touching it. If a center row is hit (including with the upped) than both players can be affected. Just realized this would affect pillars a bit too harshly, ideas for how to balance?  Don't quite like making it destroy only the top pillar/pend... SERIES:

That's awesome! Such an abusive and genius idea, I love it!

A random spot is destroyed.

A random spot on your opponent's side is destroyed.


What if just killed that spot?  As in, no cards can be played on the target slot IF it is not a tower stack.

destroying a spot doesnt really help much because its random, and cards played will just go to the next available spot...  I think I will keep "obliterated" as that will implicitly show that it will only destroy one card in a stack.

Well, the same could be said for its current state.  Because it's random, there's a good chance that you just wasted 3 | 6 .

nifty, might make it Earth Permanent and have a Gravity activation to strike. Say 

[Drake_XIV]

In that case, you may have to expand it to Asteroid Belt or something.

The only problem I have with that is that its standard / synergy.  Nothing new in terms of that...

I like this idea, but I think for a random space 6 earth mana is kinda heavy

[neuroleptics]

wow....i think the art is nice. the effect too.....maybe it sound like flooding? only that  this thing comes from sky above, like a meteor

well its a space and everything that touches it so i wanted to make it kinda high...

[russianspy1234]

reworked the idea, now non random.

[Drake_XIV]

I really like it now that it's been reworked.  But I feel it may be problematic to some due to the insta-kill effect.  I understand that it is a lot more expensive than standard control, but I am unsure on the balance...
