NAME: Gamat ELEMENT: Water COST: 2 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 1|2 TEXT: Heal 1hp for each gamat in play.  Cause poisoning if ingested.	NAME: Mythical Gamat ELEMENT: Water COST: 2 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 2|3 TEXT: Heal 1hp for each gamat in play.  Cause poisoning if ingested.

ART: Hawanja IDEA: coinich NOTES: Its similar to Empathic Bond, but only applies to this creature.  It seems less inventive than it did in my head. SERIES:

So it is exponentially stacking?  This and fractal... also upgraded table has as 3|3, and the card says 3|2.

This and Fractal will rarely, if at all, win you the game.  If its too strong though, I can invert the upgraded's stats.  Also, thanks, the table had a typo.

Edit: redone to compensate for changes
if I'm understanding this correctly each gamat heals u for 1 * number of gamat at the end of the turn so

number of Gamat	amount of healing
1	1
2	4
3	9
4	16
5	25
6	36

I like the art. Also, how about have the unupped heal 1 per and upgrade to 2 per but with a cost increase?
Higher cost is anti-fractal

I think the wording "Heal 2HP for each Gamat in play" is enough. The other is just a Mythical Gamat but it's still a Gamat. ^_^

I originally envisioned this card with heal 1 instead of heal 2.  Obviously I didn't quite think it through; 72 at 6 is too strong IMO despite its low health.  I considered it earlier, I might do it now Rutarete.

I see your point Hyroen; Scarab and Elite Scarab simply reference scarabs.  I had plenty of room, so I didn't worry about it at the time.

I like it: Potentially stackable, but lacking the atk to win the game, and being suceptible to every form of CC.

Loving the new, poisonous featurette. Not sure what it is from the image that makes it seem poisonous but who cares?! ^_^

I noticed you changed it to just gamat. By the way, what is a gamat? Something you researched into? A word you made up?

[suxerz]

I'm quite certain that I'm right about this (but please correct me if I'm wrong, coinich) - I believe gamat is a sea cucumber. (Proof (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gamat)) Also, the name is in my native language. IMO, it fits perfectly with the theme since gamat is quite popular with its healing properties. On the other hand, actually it's not poisonous... but I don't see why we have to be too realistic about that.

Oh btw, the description on the card doesn't match with the one in the table.

The spines on the back?  I thought it was slightly underwhelming in this new form, so I just added the poisoning thing just to keep it from being completely destroyed by Otys and Scarabs.  I suppose its mildly ironic that like suxerz said, its meant to be eaten by people, but I figure its like the real life pufferfish; just needs to be prepared properly or whatever.  Plus this is Elements, I can take creative liberties here.

Thanks, table fixed.  I was wondering if anyone would look up the gamat; thats exactly what it is.  I suppose speaking that language helps.  I just added the poisonous as a mechanic thing to make it not completely owned by CC.

I like the poison buff
