Huh. At first glance it seemed like some weaker version of Thunderstorm, but it's actually much more destructive...

I'd personally want to see the current Thunderstorm | Lightning Storm replaced by this. No one uses the original nowadays anyway...

Hmmm, I really think you should limit the jumps or change the affect something along the lines of
"Deals 3 damage to target creature then continuously jumps to other creatures doing succesively less damage."
(Though you'd need a way to shorten that...)
In this effect you deal 3, 2, then 1 damage to creatures.
Reason being, this card is currently an instakill with splash damage...

After Anarook's words of wisdom I do agree that in its current form its fairly overpowered. Parallel Universe does give you added creature advantage (1) for 7 :aether however one is allowed to select which creature to duplicate, which in itself should be worth at least 1 :aether out of the 7. This allows for strategic choosing of extra abilities per turn.

At the current cost of Arc Spark, it -is- an instakill, but it still takes into consideration HP, as zanzarino prefers. In this situation however, the greater the total HP of all the creatures, the stronger the skill due to the splash effect, which can be as weak as Thunderstorm but as strong or stronger than Rain of Fire. The splash effect is inconsistent and the instakill does not permit the player to select a target, unless it has 1HP.

It is because of the uncertainty and average power of Arc Spark that I would say 7-8 :aether should be a good cost estimate of cost for Arc Spark.

EDIT: Oh, and if possible, leave the name of Arc Lightning for both versions. I think it sounds better and both cards do the same things, but one is for cheaper.

Interesting concept, I think this card is a damned good idea, albeit I now haven a very large itch to scratch with play testing, also, how does it determine it's next target? RNG, or is it in order, or ... ? As well, Good idea, very interesting, hope to play it out one day.

Wouldn't it have to mark a creature to show they are affected by Arc Lightning? Perhaps the :aether symbol? Otherwise it would be hard to keep track of.

Other than that, good idea. Potentially extremely deadly, and an interesting take on mass CC.

OH, I thought it was each turn it selected a new target.

This is officially my favourite card idea ever.
