IDEA:
Raptor6789
NOTES:
Description:
This card can fulfill many uses. First, it gives Death the ability to buff its creatures, similar to Light's Blessing or the growth ability of others. Second, it can potentially act as a form of single-target CC at the expense of buffing the target creature. Finally, it gains synergy with Nightmare|Eclipse because it converts the target creature to :death, enabling it to be buffed even further. However, any conversion of a previously non Death/Darkness creature will poison the creature.

Notes:
-Cost is comparable to that of Blessing.
-Not sure if this has too many effects; should I make this card simpler?
-The line break at +2|+2 is really bothering me, but I don't know how to fix it while keeping the entire text on the card :(

Will be a lot of fun with deathstalkers.
It seems a little overpriced given that
1) Its use is limited to :death and :darkness allies or it will poison your own creatures.
2) Its offessive CC use is limited since you will be buffing whatever you use it on.

Given that blessing costs 3 :light unupped or 2 :light upped and gives +3|+3 with no downside, I think this could use a cost reduction.
Whether the glass is half full or half empty is a moot point. It is always filled to the brim. It is only a matter of by what. The real question is: What fills you?

This card would certainly be good in any darkness/death duo. Obsidian dragons+the upped version of this card could result in some serious fun. Good idea.
A player of cards, Elements cards that is.

Should be very fun. It will be nice to have another option for attack power buffs. Using it in conjunction with eclipse / nightfall should quite fun.

I like the art too. Nice job ET!

Is that . . . a skeleton doing the finger?

No, I think it's just right. It probably seems to have too many effects because of its many uses, and many uses are good.

Try using the :death and :darkness symbol instead of the word; it should help condense the text.
