Biofilm | Endotoxic Biofilm

[ARTHANASIOS]

You can make it to create an improved malignant cell each turn (the one with 0|1 stats) so a +1 buff would be so lethal as they would start as weak ones. Also remove the swarm ability, the +1 buff in atk per turn is more than enough. Other decks have to use a shard of Patience to achieve something similar and they don't attack each turn. Better try to avoid the creation of too broken cards, I don't think they will reach the Forge or the Armory.

Well, giving +1 per adjacent still makes it impervious to most mass CC.  That's the problem I felt with Swarm, since it'd need some counter.  Maybe have them game +2 | +0 if there is adjacent Cell rather than giving them +1 from the card?

Well, on another note, how about having it make all creatures poisonous (e.g. coating your creatures with biofilm)?  So it's not just restricted to your cells.

Also, when your creature slots are full, will it still absorb ?

I'm not sure I want to extend the poisonous trait broadly, but rather than swarm I will have cells give anything adjacent the +1|+1 bonus (+1|+2 for upped version). This, of course, will not stack to keep it from being OP. Hopefully this is a little better than using the swarm mechanic so it won't be overly powerful.

The new version is up now. The old one is in a spoiler for reference.

CURATOR COMMENT

This card will not be permitted into the Crucible due to one or more of the following errors:

• Table filled out incorrectly.

Correct these errors as soon as possible and feel free to submit again when ready.

Thank you. ^_^

It's really just the minor 0 that you have for Biofilm's ATK | HP which should be left empty, but nonetheless it is incorrect. If I let it slide...

[OdinVanguard]

Fixed the stray "0" in the att|hp field.
Are there any further errors I missed?

[Hyroen]

Ah yes, you might want to show that the costs are 8 and 10 for the non-upgraded and upgraded respectively.

[OdinVanguard]

Done.

[Annele]

What side does the malignant cell appear on?

[Hyroen]

This card was permitted into the Crucible because it didn't have any preventing errors, however...

It didn't have any errors because I fixed them. Please make sure to include quanta symbols, and not the written element for Cost.

Thank you.

I like this card but the buff would be removed upon the destruction of this card right?

[shoemaja]

what if the permanent was destroyed if you ever don't have enough quanta to pay for its upkeep, making you watch your quanta levels

[OdinVanguard]

what if the permanent was destroyed if you ever don't have enough quanta to pay for its upkeep, making you watch your quanta levels

Thats essentially what is meant by "Absorbs " . I.e. every turn it consumes 1 quanta. If the player doesn't have enough, this card gets destroyed (just like the card Flood|Innundate for water that is in the game now)

I like this card but the buff would be removed upon the destruction of this card right?

Yes, if the card gets destroyed, the buff disappears. For the purposes of the +1|+2 buff for creatures near malignant cells, it would act just like nightfall / eclipse.
Any poison dealt to the opponent (upped version) would still remain of course.
