Yeah it only stops the skills. So you can prevent a certain creature from growing, stealing or destroying. (for example)
And people chopped down all the jungle, that's why the silverback is so furious....
Nah, my problem with life was, it already has an abundance (spelling) of creatures in this attack range, adding another one would be overkill. Also I was immediately thinking of some kind of ground bash skill wich would fit into the
theme. (mini earthquake wich startles opponent's creatures).
As it looks now, I'll remove the second skill and reduce the skill costs to 2
for unupgraded and 1
for upgraded. Another option is to make it stun the target creature for 1 turn. (either the upgraded or both versions)
