I like the concept of a creature flipping sides like that. Also, damage and healing; cool.

However, the mechanic doesn't work (as is): You turn Yin over to your opponent's Yang on your turn. Your turn ends. It doesn't do damage. Your opponent turns his Yang back over to your Yin on his turn. His turn ends. It doesn't heal you.

I guess what you could do, is make Yin's ability free, whereas Yang caries an (other) cost. That way it makes some more sense in terms of mechanics.

You turn your Yin into Yang. It doesn't to damage.
On your opponent's turn, it has summoning sickness. It heals you.
Next turn he switches into Yin. It doesn't do damage.
Your turn it does it damage, but has summoning sickness.
Because it's sort of in stasis, it balances out the effect, so it's nowhere near OP, but it still works.

exactly, it's like phoenix/ash, if you kill it, your next turn, it's one full, if they kill it, it's not one full turn yet, and can't use it's ability

Tho Yin is Dark and Yang bright it doesn't seem right.
Yang is active or positive energy where Yin is reactive or negative energy.

Seems odd that Yang is negative and heals you.

Healing is positive. Damaging is negative.

It is not tho.

Healing is a balance, you can't heal past max health.
There is no positive gain possible, only a negative to damage inflicted.
Inflicting Damage is you taking action, a yang effect.

As eh pewwwp said:
and it should cost 5 :darkness and 4 :darkness unupped and upped, maybe more, because if you look at abomination, has the same attack and defense, and no ability, for 5 :entropy,  this gives you the option of healing, which i find that this is giving you an immortal SoG throughout the entire game, and i view healing as more important than attacking is some decks
Yin is better than abomination. I think this card should cost 6 :darkness, because its a :darkness abomination with an ability which gives him versatility, or at least cost 5, because Yin is more or less a vanilla creature.

Uh yeah...maybe Yin should be unfractable too even if not untargetable. Especially since its cost is so low.
