This card is also hit by its Lightning Storm, however, because of its hp gain every time this power is used, the effect  of the storm on this creature is negated.

Is there a good reason you chose for this to have an Air card template, but with a :death casting cost and an :aether skill cost?

Oh... lol oops I was using the template for an air card before this. I'll change it right away.

What is thunder horse?... It doesn't get stronger. The lightning strikes every creature on the field, including the Revenant/Phantasm himself. The +1 hp every turn is cancelled out... Think about it.

this kinda seems stupid
aether already has lightning anyway which does 5 damage at no cost to the player.

What's the point of this exactly?
Also how does this fit into the death theme?

Not my card, but I'll try to field some of your questions...

First off, go easy with the "stupid" charge.  Lightning does 5 damage to 1 creature.  A player is limited to 6 of each card.  This creature is more like Thunderstorm on a stick--it can do damage to every creature and the ability has unlimited number of times it can be used.

As for how it fits in a death theme--it seems that dealing 1 damage to every creature (potentially) every turn would cause a lot of death to me.
Bring back Holy Cow!

I agree.  It's just like a retrovirus or plague card for death, but they're able to keep reusing it as opposed to just a one shot deal.  Nice artwork BTW.

correction, lightning requires 2 :aether, when upped it requires 1 :aether, if your gonna make an argument towards something, don`t exaggerate.

Just wondering, what placed you to put a character from Warcraft : DOTA, map, as an idea into Elements? Also if this creature`s ability is more than one use, i reckon its slightly Op, think about it, your constanly doing 1 damage to all creatures on the field and constantly gaining 1 attack for this creature, although using the ability constantly will drain your :aether significantly, i`m not so sure about the ability or the concept of the creature.

You're not thinking of Thunderstorm the air card?
http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,2001.0.html

I don't see why the ability should be aether,

This is Thunderstorm on a stick isn't?

If it is, I don't think the ability should buff as well as casting Thunderstorm,

And you don't need to raise the cost of the upgraded card

I don't think this is being made clear enough. The card is gaining one hp per turn because it is also hit for 1 hp every time it uses its power.

So basically, the health gain gets cancelled out.
