Search cards/ floaters to increase consistancy issues in the game https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=39582.msg491960#msg491960

ok so i noticed this game relies on the 6 copies of each cards to fix consistancy issues similar to magic the gathering but even magic the gathering has search cards. i suggest creating such search cards for example costing a certain amount of an element to search for a creature of tht element from the deck and add it to the hand for example pay  :earth3 to search for an  :earthcreature or even take an amount of random element to search for a card. or coming from the yugioh perspective have a monster that when summoned you can add a certain creature to your hand, or if that creature is destroyed you can search your deck for a certain monster. even cards that could search for shields or wepons for example

search cards are cards which allow you to add a card from your deck to your hand

Floaters refer to the creature doing something when its destroyed for example in yugioh giant rat once destroyed u can special summon another creature 1500 atk or less

obviously some good suggestions would be needed to make sure its not abused like if lava destroyer was destroyed you can search for another one that is clearly overpowered and thats not what i suggest.

By using search cards and floaters it adds more of a skill element to the game rather than autopiloting decks and relaying solely on luck

I have a few questions.
Why exactly are search cards needed? Isn't it your fault if your deck is consistently unreliable? And doesn't a factor of luck make the game more fun?
Also, I'm not sure if I know what you mean by floaters. I would say that the Phoenix is a floater, because it summons an Ash when it is killed. But that may not be what you mean.
