Toxic Smog | Toxic Pollution

[Zac33333]

NAME: Toxic Smog ELEMENT: Death COST: 4 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: All non- and non- creatures gain -2|-1. Pollute: Deal 1 damage to target airbourne creature.	NAME: Toxic Pollution ELEMENT: Death COST: 5 TYPE: Permanent ATK|HP: TEXT: All non- and non-   creatures gain -3|-1. Pollute: Deal 1 damage to target airborne creature.

ART: Zac33333 IDEA: Zac33333 NOTES: I was thinking of a semi-anti Airbourne card, and since I live about 2 minutes from a steel mill with smokey billows, I thought of pollution. To clarify for people who are unsure: The -2|-1 effect is like Nightfall, and does not stack with multiple Smogs. If you play an upgraded version over the non-upgraded version, it simply adds -1|-0 to all the creatures previously affected, and -3|-1 to all those that can possibly be affected afterwards. Also, this card does not affect Malignant Cells/Singularities. SPECIAL THANKS TO CAPTAIN SCIBRA FOR HELP WITH WORDING. SERIES:

why not make the loss of air bourne permanent to make the coding easier? this seems like a good card to put in a wings deck.

Hmm, good thought.

But then if you do that, it loses it's Airbourne ability, so it can't be targeted again.
I'm not sure if I like that.

Right now I'd say it's pretty UP. 6|7 for initial casting cost, and 2 to target a flying creature. The creature loses some stats, but I really don't see why you'd use this over flesh recluse.

Less cost, but also less dammage

Well is I made it permanently lose Airbourne, would that be better?

I mean, removing HP and ATK, I figured it'd be a bonus.

Or maybe if the card were cheaper?

What I said was I considered airborne. Consider.
Toxic pollution = 7 + 2 for -2|-3 on an airborne creature and unairing it
Flesh recluse = 3 + 6|3 stats + 1 for webbing a creature.

The best use of this card right now would be killing pegasi and wyrms (upped version), where the damage reduction is most useful since it will be double effective towards dive. The only other good point is that it doesn't require off element quanta to cast. Balance wise, that may be worth the 1 point of extra activation cost.
If I were using a mono death deck I might consider using it, but its casting cost does seem rather high to me.

[esran]

this should affect all creatures, and web flyers, so it is useful vs all decks rather than being super situational.

Nice card,when you are spamming creatures,if this card is on the field,you can easily outdamage the opponent. It's really good even against  ,because Light's most creatures are airborne. By the way,it's airborne*,not airbourne. You may want to change it. Nice idea,overall.

Airbourne is fine.  It is simply the British English spelling, no harm there.
