Lovers | The Lovers

NAME: Lovers ELEMENT: Entropy COST: 6 TYPE: Spell ATK|HP: - TEXT: Turn 2 of your own creatures in Lovers.	NAME: The Lovers ELEMENT: Enrtropy COST: 6 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: - TEXT: :Create a Committed Lover with the current stats of target, destroy target.

NAME: Lover ELEMENT: Entropy COST: 3 TYPE: creature ATK|HP: 3|6 TEXT: Comitment: For every Lover in play, this card losses half its original HP and gains it back as attack.	NAME: Committed lover ELEMENT: Entropy COST: 6 TYPE: Creature ATK|HP: 6|0 TEXT: Love: heals or hurts target, it won´t die unless it´s has been hurt before. Commitment.

ART: Az4ReL IDEA: Az4ReL NOTES: Commitment is a passive ability. activated when the creature attacks so when there are 3 unhealed Lovers only the first one attacking will die. the odds for Love are 50/50 if the target is entropy. 70% to hurt for the rest of creatures. the quantity of damage/heal is a random number between half max health(rounds down) of target and 1. when the creature transforms into a Lover death trigers are activated. also, commitment rounds down on health so any 1 HP lover will die that means activating death triggers twice. SERIES: tarot series (yet in development) no link.

Is the tarot series Major and Minor Arcana by any chance?

On a more related note, I'm a bit confused by how the upped works. So you give a creature love, and love costs 6  to gain half of attack for cost of half of HP.  Is that correct?

Overall the card is very complicated, which isn't too good for a game like this. My recommendation is focus on just the "love" concept of the card (aka make it strong but limit it to two only, or remove limitation or keep ability) and make the upped more related to the unupped (eg make both creatures or permanents).

the tarot series will be the mayor arcana + maybe 4 or so for the minor. will be like 26 cards  ???
 on the upped love costs 6  to gain half of attack for cost of half of HP and destroys every other creature of the same type except for one. is like a jealousy rage, lol.
ergo, if you got 6 golden dragons on your side one uses love now you got 2 one normal one 15\5.

you are rigth is too compliated maybe I should remove both restricions and make something like when you use love select a target creature then kill the creature next to it then get half your hp for attack.also I could do the unupped a spell that turns a creature into a lover. or something like that.

thanks for the ideas, i`ll propbably change it tomorrow

If I were designing this card, I'd probably remove the 'limited numbers allowed in deck' policy and change the unupped version's abilities to something like this:

Active:
  Seduce: Turn target creature into a Lover.
Passive:
Commitment: For every Lover in play, this card gains +1/-1.

Just a suggestion, just the first thing to come to mind, reading through the thread. The present system is obscenely complex, as noted above. Players will not want to have to do algebra before deciding whether to play a card.

[az4rel]

now its done I have redone the card acording to suggestions how is it now, should I chage something like the probability of love?

First off - welcome to the CIA board, az4rel! If you have any questions regarding card design or table formatting, please P.M. me if you need help answering such questions. ^^;

That said, in order to get this into the Crucible, the following guidelines must be met-

CURATOR COMMENT
-Capitalize the word 'Entropy' in the ELEMENT section of all your tables; make sure you spell it as 'Entropy' and not 'Enrtropy'
-Capitalize the word 'The' in the NAME section of your upgraded table (it should read 'The Lovers' as shown on your card image); repeat this for your other cards, 'Lover' and 'Committed Lover'
-Capitalize the words, 'Creature', 'Permanent', and 'Spell' in your tables in the TYPE section
-Add the stats to the ATK|HP section of your 'Committed Lover' idea table
-Add a space between the :entropyLove: part of your text in the 'Committed Lover' table, so that the icon is separated from the ability word

Lots of things going on here, but I don't have quite the time to analyze it. The Lovers card has a very nice abstract; the 'Lover/Committed Lover' idea, on the other hand...

I really like the art for the cards.  The art has this ugly, crazy, and disturbing look that I do enjoy.
