ART: http://fr.topic-topos.com/chateau-du-bois-du-loup-augan IDEA: ralouf1 NOTES: Neutralise mean that the permanent doesn't have effect anymore : shield just doesn't have any effect Weapon doesn't do damage and activated capacity can't be used. Same for permanent like hourglass : they can't be actived when neutralised. If you target a stack, only one permanent will be affected. SERIES:

I would personally just make the second cost less and remove the ability to generate the jade staff.

This picture seems to represent another idea I was thinking about for this quest to life PC; is there a way the undergrowth/plants grow and cause to damage to permanent fixtures? If so, I think this is where this card should head. When I read back to nature, I picture plants pulling a permanent down into the ground, or away into the woods.

So yes it's my idea : the plant take the building (so the permanent) back to the ground (so the life player draw a card/ a jade staff is generated).
I added a pool if you wanna give any feedback

The ecological recycling was a good step. However mechanically it is still much more destructive than Life ever has been (Including Spine Carapace).
I think it would be improved if it replaced the Destroy mechanic with a different mechanic.

Edit: Spine not Spice. My finger walked 3 keys without my notice.

Hahaha spice carapace.
Jokes aside, giving yourself a free jade staff is unnecesary,

So maybe instead of destroying the permanent this should just neutralise it ? Do you have any other idea about it ? thanks for your time

Neutralize would fit the cost. A cheaper version could mitigate instead of neutralize. Etc. Etc.

I do agree that a cost decrease of 1 rather than Jade Staff would be preferred.

Okay so I gonna modify the card in OP

Definitely a cool Life theme. How would this neutralize work? Would it affect stacks or single permanents, how long would it last?

[furballdn]

How long does neutralization last and why do you draw a card?

Neuralise last for ever, Details are in the OP post.
Then you draw a card because the nature takes back what belong to it, so the life elementalist, who represent the nature draw a card, that's my point about it.

Isn't Neutralise the same as destroying the Permanent, except that you've now got a useless Permanent slot?
