NAME:
Landslide
ELEMENT:
Earth
COST:
:earth
TYPE:
Spell
ATK|HP:
ABILITY:
Deals 2 damage to every enemy creature on the field. Deals double damage if the creature has airborne status. Removes skill.
ART:

IDEA:
Silent Shadow (Now Retribution)
NOTES:
If the creature does not die, the upgraded version remove the airborne status and delays it for one turn. (Delay affects all creatures who do not die)
Reason for hurting airborne creatures: The falling rocks would cause large amounts of dust to be created and thrown into the air, blinding the airborne creatures making them fly into the cliff or each other, thus hurting them. It depends on the position of airborne creatures and the height of the cliff, really. Besides, rockfall doesn't really state where the rocks fall from.
SERIES:
-----
Any opinions? This is another AoE spell, except this time for earth.
I just though the idea would be cool with the new addition of airborne.

Yellow card-$$$man caution for trolling

The most pertinent issue I have with this is the card concept--things that are already flying hardly get affected by landslides. I understand that you're trying to better integrate the airborne concept into the game but it's still insufficient justification for me  :(

Otherwise, at 7  :earth, for its effects, it is decently balanced. Maybe it would make more sense if it doesn't deal double damage to airborne creatures, but instead puts them in a time bubble? The cost just about puts quicksand/landslide decks at a feasible but difficult to execute combination. Good luck on refining the idea further, decent work so far  :)

Shouldn't it deal half damage to airborne creatures?

Stuck in a time bubble?
That sounds good. But they still lose airborne status permanently right?

Shouldn't it deal half damage to airborne creatures?
That would make this card UP...

A land slide could potentially raise a large amount of dust that could blind a flying creature causing it to run into something/each other.

the removes skill part might be abit OP, but might not be, I would have to test it. Maybe increase cost to 8 for the upped one?

At the moment, the airborne status is not that important.
To combo this + wings, you need 2 completely unassociated elements anyways.

Ohhhh, I thought it meant like remove an unquinted oty's devour skill. So it just removes the airborn.
