Overdrive | Hyperdrive

Ouch.

It's weak now.

Yeah, it shouldn't be that rare now; it can be Miracle-level rare. Now, I think it costs too much. 24 unupped and 20 upped sounds about right. No more Fractal Ruby Dragon without risking your health. I guess Ruby Dragon + Fractal is still viable if you play a Phase Shield on the same turn.

But that way two Novas or a single Supernova would be able to cast it. I still don't like the sound of that.

[icybraker]

Wowzers! You're right!

It still deserves a consolation prize of some sort, I think. How about it heals you a bit in preparation for your HP loss? Or something?

[Bloodshadow]

Why not just use healing cards? Heal uses 3 HP to heal for 20 HP after using Overdrive.

You are still trying to force the card to work.

I don't see Overdrive/Hyperdrive fitting into the elements world.

That would be your own opinion. By your definition, what does it mean to "fit into the Elements world"?

Right now the card seems pretty balanced to me. Use it and rush out your entire hand, at the cost of your own HP. How does that not fit?

With the changes, it seems pretty fun now. But, not so much fun when you can replenish your "quanta" supply with Miracles. I would use a Fractal deck without any Aether Towers if this card was around, still. I think it needs more work, but it's gotten better. Why not add "You can't be healed for the rest of the turn after you use this card"? Still, though, something of this caliber should be really rare.

You use Fractal, it consumes all your HP and you die. Same with Miracle. After using Overdrive, anything that consumes quanta will consume HP instead for that turn.

Oh, weird, don't see much use for the card, then, sadly.

CURATOR COMMENT
- Current version of the card appears extremely weak. I can see little or no use for the card. Can you give a deck example where you would use this?

How about lowering the card cost to 15/12 random quanta? Is that too overpowered?

[Bloodshadow]

Cost is now changed to 15/12.
