I guess I will move this here.

I would like to make a Series using these.

That aether one looks like a twisting of dimensions! Can imagine something like perhaps a spell - all/opponent's creatures have a chance to slip into another dimension. (what this does - basically has a chance (20%/30%/40%/X%(?)) to take the creature out of the game for 1/2/3/x(?) amount of turns before returning back. This could be done by giving the creature immortality and stasis for those turns).

I voted for fever, lignification, and thicket trap.  However, I think Thicket Trap should be  or . 

 : It causes the time bubble/stasis effect, and we do not currently have a card that causes this effect.
: It can be seen as shifting the creature out of phase for a short period of time.

The poll is not which cards are good but rather which cards are good soft CC for Life. If you vote for a card then you are saying that it should be a Life card in game.

The idea of Thicket trap is that it takes time to get unentangled. Does this card have the potential to be a great Soft CC for Life? You decide.

[Seiya]

Fair enough.  Fever, Lignification, and Thicket.

[Werdbooty]

I really think Thicket is the best idea.

[rohlfo]

Thanks guys 
For those interested, here is an explanation/response to Seiya as to why Thicket Trap is  :
first off, don't disagree with the  analagy, but there are always various ways to look at a card...
My thinking was as follows:
Thicket in general, i.e. plants and stuff, are very much  .
making this a trap is a sudden growth of thicket around the creature, sudden burst of life? = 
how if effects is based on the HP (i.e. life!) of the creature

The creature is trapped in the thicket, and so not able to do anything. For programming/explanation sake I named this after the 'time bubble' effect. It could either have the same 'delayed look' on the card as time bubble, or obviously have it's own 'thicket' look...
hope that helps explain!

I guess I will move this here.

I would like to make a Series using these.

Do you want any additional elements?

At first glance: Skewed Reality Series, or some such thing. Change a card's element to [insert element here].

Alternately, you could take a look at this (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,20915.msg284736#msg284736). I can see the two ideas working together easily.

Each Thread will receive a post from one of the two leaders of the CCC [OldTrees and Emerald Tiger] proving and advertising their quality.

The Communal Card Creation team congratulates Thicket|Thicket (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,20858.0.html), Fever|Fever (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,20807) and Lignification|Lignification (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,20590.0.html) on winning the CCC's "Soft Creature Control for Life" competition. They are quality examples of potential Soft Creature Control for the Life Element. We feel that any of these cards would be a great improvement to Elements the Game. If you liked any of these cards you may like the others as well.
