This card is an entry to the Epic 3 Cards Challenge. It is also one of my Advanced Spell series; in fact, it is the most powerful Advanced Spell of them all.

NAME:
Overdrive
ELEMENT:
Other
COST:
15
TYPE:
Spell
ATK/HP:
-
ABILITY:
All your quanta are consumed. For this turn only, you can use your HP to pay for quanta costs.

Hyperdrive
ELEMENT:

COST:
12
TYPE:
Spell
ATK/HP:

ABILITY:

NOTES: [/color][/b]
For example, if you play a Black Dragon after using this card, you would lose 10 HP.
Using another Advanced Spell will instantly kill you, because if HP is used to pay quanta costs, Miracle would drain all your HP before healing you.
Using a Bolt will deal its basic damage, because this states that HP is used to PAY for quanta, instead of HP is treated AS quanta. Therefore, Fire Bolt will think that you have zero :fire after using Overdrive.
Rustler can be spammed. Yes, you can convert all your HP into :life. The only useful thing about doing this is halving the HP cost of Life creatures, since 1 HP = :life :life.

cost 30 quanta? That's a joke right?

Cost can be varied. For a card like this I'm willing to accept even a 100 quanta cost.

Dude.  Two novas will pay for this.

There isn't a single quanta cost that would ever balance this.

30 quantum is not this much to be able to use anything in your hand no matter the element and the total cost. This with Fractal could be awesome.

This card breaks the whole "costs all your quanta" thing.  Another excellent point.

Two Novas is 24 quanta. A Supernova is 22 quanta.

Also, this card has to be a rare. I know being rare doesn't justify for being OP, but it is rare nonetheless.
To be or not to be, I can do both at once. Go learn quantum mechanics, n00b.

Alright, I apologize.  I meant two supernovas.

And being rare is fair, because you can't win it off spins.  If this card is played, you lose.

This is not an autowin card. The most broken situation is probably 1 Ruby Dragon, 6 Fractal, and 1 Hyperdrive... But for decks that are not dragon speed decks, it's not so bad.

Yeah, this card would be as rare as Nymphs.

This is too an autowin card!
DECK:
12 x Entropy Pillar
6 x Super Nova
4 x Overdrive
4 x Fractal
4 x PICK YOUR FAVORITE!

Congratulations my good man, you win.  Just pick anything with 5 attack or more, like frogs, cocktrice, dragons, nymphs, and a ridiculous amount of other cards.

But surely one copy of this card in your deck would not be game-breaking? Remember, this is as rare as Nymphs.

Rarity isn't a balance factor, so stop repeating this. OP card is OP.
