ART: Original Art Link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Lincoln_imp.jpg Modified slightly by OdinVanguard using GIMP IDEA: OdinVanguard NOTES: "Misdirection and secrets rule the day today" "Today, you will be heckled for every action you take by two old codgers watching from a theater balcony... Fortunately, one of them thinks your opponent stinks even worse. Use that to your advantage." This card was originally made as a joke card about players that rely too heavily on just one card… People seemed to think it should be made into a card in its own right, so here it is!

for an imp, the picture is terrifying.....
good idea though but damage is weak like 1 and opponent will barely use the same card twice(except fractal decks)
need more damage 

[skyironsword]

... Uh, gamer, you forgot about pillars. And any deck that uses six of a kind.

Also, nightfall will bump this to a 2|3 (2|5 upped) and eclipse would bump it to a 3|3 (3|5 upped)
Getting out a 3|5 for 1 is already very strong, even with no ability.

I'd exclude pillars, for balancing reasons. Otherwise it looks like a great counter to fractal (then again, dims) and has some synergy with nightmare. Also, is heckle passive or active?

imp on first turn ? only nova / rainbow users are able to get it
so enemy would summon pillars on first round then ... so pillars drawn will cause imp to just atk like a normal creature...
exception of fast time drawing , double draws and bravery. they will hurt

I see it's been mentioned that it's possible for this to be dealing quit a bit of damage in the first few turns. But I think it deserves an attack upgrade of 1 (up to two). Because, this card isn't really worth it mid and late game, when most cards have been played. Also, it's also so easily blocked by shields. I really like the mechanic, but right now I think it's more UP than not.

[timetock]

I vote it to pass shields if it's attacks using its ability

That is why he designed the card. To get rid of the people who uses the same card over and over. If you think about the fractal/RoL decks it is way more powerfull.
It started in the humor topic, there were some good reactions, so he decided to post the card in the CI&A.

I agree that 1 is a bit cheap, but if it's some more expensive then it should be good.

ummm, should that not be 4 or 5 for a 3 | 5?

no he is correct:
nightfall +1|+1
eclipse+2|+1

so adding them to your stats of a Fickle Imp would make:
nightfall 1|1 + 1|2 = 2|3 or upped 1|1 + 1|4 = 2|5
eclipse 2|1 + 1|2 = 3|3 or upped 2|1 + 1|4 = 3|5

[dawn to dusk]

glad you moved it here. Would this work with passive abilities like light? If so, this is a major counter to ffq decks (22 fireflies using the same ability + eclipse = 66 damage in one turn)
