Graviton Hurler | Graviton Flinger

[Schattenfresser]

Hi,
I had an funny idea about making non-Airborne creatures Airborne. The idea isn't perfect and is very situational right now as Wings is the only card that affect Airborne creatures.

Discuss

NAME: Graviton Hurler ELEMENT: Gravity COST: 4 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 2 | 5 ABILITY: Centrifugal Acceleration: The target creature becomes Airborne for 1 turn.	NAME: Graviton Flinger ELEMENT: Gravity COST: 4 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 3 | 7 ABILITY: Centrifugal Acceleration: The target creature becomes Airborne for 1 turn.

Haha this is a pretty good idea. This is a good way to make gravity work against the new wings.


However, I would decrease the cost since it's not that great at attacking and the ability only lasts 1 turn.

The card had the costs of 4 at first but I saw that the Graviton Merc... has similar stats (1 attack more) for the same cost.
But I changed the costs back to 4 and i increased the the HP of the upped card to 7 so that it survive 2 eagle shoots.

Maybe make the upped version cost increase to 5 and last two turns?
Also, can this card use the ability on itself?

Yes, the creature can use the ability on herself. Doesn't make sense because it would throw itself, but who cares.
And I don't think that it's a good idea to let the ability last more then 1 turn because it would require a timer on the creature and that would make the ability to complicated.

All in all it seems like a good card.
Now we need one to remove the airborne status...

Good idea in general, but is the wrong element for it mechanically, as already has Momentum.

When Wings is going to be the only card that affects non-Airborne creatures, then your are right. But I hope that zanz doesn't create the Airborne-ability only to use it for one shield. 
And the two other elements with only 1 Airborne creatures are and . But Water doesn't throw something in the air. I could used Earth but I think that Earth doesn't provide enough power to throw a heavy creature high enough.
No, I think Gravity is the best element for this idea.

I think there was a magic card similar to this, the card gave flying to one of your creatures but destroyed it at end of turn

and it is kinda situational it should be useable against now air decks

What do you mean with this sentence?

[Avenger]

The Trojan Horse gives momentum already. (Momentum > Airborne)

Only against the shield. But I hope that there will more cards that use the Airborne-status.
