Dammit CuCN! Why are your examples better than mine?
You forgot several of my favorites




But I see your point on the high cost...
So what casting and activation costs values would keep this useful?
I heard one vote for 6 / 5

... but I'm a little warry about doing that because it effectively takes the card away from the

element.
I erred very much on the high cost side when I made this card, so I have no problem dropping the cost significantly, but bear in mind that this card could be used in conjunction with fractal to essentially provide a buff on a stick or an inflatable weapon (fractal longsword forge).
At its current price thats not an issue at all, but if it is made too cheap it could be abused (and / or make a practically forced combo)
