Yaladilae
NOTES:
Wanted to make a shield for others for a long time. So I did, and the idea here is to be able to hide a weapon behind the shield while you can deal a little damage blocking

The art has elements on it because its a cool game! And the 12 elements are all there to represent the "other"!

Interesting idea. But you might want to change the background colour a bit the White makes the Light mark a bit hard to see.

its a really good idea but life decks can negate the life loss pretty much, also this would probably prevent more damage than taken (about 95% of the time) as it was intended to do

I can't think of a way to balance it though

Well, I see it this way
sometimes when you build a deck, you just cant seem to find a shield you want, and here, you have a shield for everything

Like for example, i want to build a entrophy gravity duo, but gravity shield isnt too effective (especially for pvp) and i dont want my entrophy quanta to be all gone because of the druid, now I have this, something for a little extra damage while being able to block some

When i begun to built decks, i actually come across that situation many times

I think you should write "elements" on the ribbony thing and transfer the 12 elemental signs onto the crest itself. a grey background for the shield might be good--it's about the best i can think of that doesn't blur one or more of the elements. Just a little note on balancing I think the upped coat of arms should deal 3 damage and have its cost increased by 1 random quantum.

Unfortunately I am not very good with art =(
Otherwise I would definitely pimp it

nice idea - a fairly low powered shield and weapon in one go (sort of) good cost as it is other too so it should affect your quanta usage too much :)

interesting, although im a bit sceptical about the damage. together with titan or morning glory, its 12 damage per turn just from permanents. on the other hand, i've seen my fahrenheit doing more than 50 damage. but still, i like it.

Is that name taken from new Sabaton album? :D
I like the idea tho unupped version sometimes wouldn't affect enemy with upgraded shield (Permafrost, for example (blocks 2 dmg))

seems as though it could be overpowered in a rainbow deck. 2 damage prevention is a lot in early game, and this could easily come out first turn. That being said, there are better shields available to rainbows, so it wouldn't be too bad, and an 'other' shield is a good idea.

"Other" is really needing a shield
Love the idea
