Card Idea Engine (Communal Card Creation)

[Werdbooty]

Probably not enough time for proper consideration, but it's up (http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,21734.msg297304#msg297304).

[OldTrees]

Voting Begins.

Since this poll is idea centric and some of these cards have art I have posted the relevant parts of the card below. Remember this is not about which cards you like best. It is about which cards you think would be the best examples of a vanilla/semi vanilla card AND would be valuable improvements to the game. Art and Author do not matter. Each person gets 5 votes but only the top 4 will get the CCC statement of approval.

For Dune Soul | Dune Spirit, please add to the card text so it shows the following:

If your Mark is Time, this card gains " Slow".
If your Mark is Earth, this card generates  per turn.
Slow - Target creature is delayed for 1 turn.

Thanks.

There are currently 5 options tied at 3 votes. We will have a second round of voting between those 5 and the option "none". Any option is disqualified if none gets more votes than it. The top two options will get the CCC approval in addition to the two ideas with 4 and 5 votes.

[doublecross]

Not sure if this is the place for this question, but assuming this permanent existed:


"A permanent, that, so long as it is on the field, each creature generates 1 quanta of its element at the end of each turn.

Ex.  If you had this permanent, two fate eggs and a phoenix, you would gain 2 1  at the end of each turn.

These would stack, so two of the permanent would lead to 4 2 "

What would an appropriate cost be? What element would this most fit? Should other generate random quanta or none?

[EmeraldTiger]

I would call it an Essence Charm.

[doublecross]

Thanks for the name! I was thinking something with Aura, but I like yours more.     Any art ideas, and more importantly balancing/cost ideas?

[EmeraldTiger]

I tried to coin terms based on creature quanta production.
 

Have you thought about giving something Pyroessence?
Pyroessence produce
Allow me to attempt to coin some terms.
Essence produce

Shadowessence produce
Grave-essence produce

Chaosessence produce

Livingessence produce
  done
Chronoessence produce
Aquaessence produce

[az4rel]

life should be the element and the cost mmm could be comparable to empathy and sky blitz but im not really sure.

[doublecross]

I don't think this would need to give the quanta-generating abilities to the creature.

It would be much easier to have the permanent generate quanta based on the creatures on your field.

However, the quanta-generating art (like black with pest) would be nice to see coming off each creature ...

[OldTrees]

I am surprised at how many votes Paper Crane is receiving. Of all the ideas it was the one I though was the least vanilla.

"A permanent, that, so long as it is on the field, each creature generates 1 quanta of its element at the end of each turn.

This is not quite the place but thats ok.

It is a quanta producer that produces quanta in proportion to resources(creatures) of that element.
I would put that either in Water. Water has many duo creatures so it is used to producing effects outside o f its element with the assistance of other quanta.

Alternatively I would put this in Life (despite Rustler) or Light (See Spectral Prism card idea)

Cost is tricky. I would probably put an Absorb cost on it to delay the useage.

Say average quanta produced per turn per game is [N]
The Cost would be
Casting Cost: 2(N-A-1)
Absorb Cost: A [ --- ?]

[doublecross]

So, maybe a absorb 2    and a cost of 4 might be appropriate?
