Unsure how to title this, but I do think it's a pretty good idea nonetheless.

I think that there should be a card that allows the use of one opponent's creatures ability for the turn it's played.

I wasn't sure what the cost or element should be. It felt aetherlike, but I wasn't sure. Maybe there could be more added to this idea as well - Something built onto it.



Also, while I was thinking about this idea, another popped in my head, but I feel like it has probably been brought up -- A creature that copies another creature's skills with half the attack.

Anyways, I'd like to have a discussion about these two ideas!

@First post . ^^

For second idea,it's really nice but there is PU. So,it does not needed. But there can be a creature that have that ability,for example, 0 / 1 stats, an active ability with elemental cost,gains half of the target creature's attack and gains 2 HP. If that creature has an active skill,it copies it. For example (I think that creature has an aether one.) Your opponent plays Maxwell, :entropy :entropy : Paradox,when you copy it,cost turns into :aether :aether . Nice idea anyway,congrats!

For first skill,it's similiar to second one,it may be a water creature. :water :water to gain a creature's stats and skills for this turn. Think about it.

I was leaning more towards a spell, but those definitely hold up with the idea.

Monkey ha to wait for an ability to be activated, so I would say that the most well defined spell would probably end up as the ability of the Imp Spirit.
