Steal My Idea!

String Theory - 4 - permanent
This card has three charges. Expend 4 to put 2 Black Holes at the top of your deck, and lose one charge per turn. When the third charge is expended, this card is destroyed and triggers a Black Hole effect for your opponent.

It might be a bit wordy, and idk if the quanta balancing is all right, but I like the idea

This just seems like the most obvious idea to me, and yet I have not been able to find it put out there. I probably just haven't looked in the right place. I think there should be a permanent  card called Gallows Pole or maybe Guillotine that would target a creature and, using  quanta, kill it. Perhaps it could cost as much  as it took to play the card or be based upon the hit points of the target. If it were a weapon perhaps it could target a creature OR attack as a normal weapon (4 damage?) but not both.

single-card insta-killing is frowned upon and needs a serious drawback.
Repeatable single-card insta-killing is way worse.

having to pay quanta depending on the creature hp is a decent drawback, though it might need a bit more.
perhaps something like:

permanent, 4
when this permanent is played, drain all quanta.
this permanent gains (sharpness?) counters equal to the amount of quanta drained.
2 : repeatably deal 1 damage to target creature and drain a sharpness counter until the creature is dead or there are no more sharpness counters left.

or, simpler:
2 : sacrifice this permanent: kill target creature.

Well, yes, I would expect something like that though 4  to put it out seems low to me. I like your sharpness idea a lot. Or maybe put a counter on it like a Phase Shield has. Or both.

I got a ridiculous hard to make card idea.
This card is a spectre, it enter the battlefield dead
as though the battlefield is a graveyard, it can't attack,
it can't use skills, it can't be targeted.

The problem is how can this card be beneficial to your game.
I dun want to just purely rely on 2 card for comboes, Chimera and Empathetic bond,
regardless i abandoned this idea since i deemed its impossible to make.

Idea 1

There should be a permanent card that produces skeletons. Call it Mass Grave or Ossuary or Charnel House or something similar. Maybe make it dependent upon actually playing a skeleton or make it cost quanta when used. Or both - when you play a skeleton you can spend quanta to get another skeleton (or two or Elite, if upgraded). My first thought was to have it just pump out a skeleton every turn, but that seems a bit OP to me.

Idea 2

  card - Mass Immolation: sacrifice your entire field to get quanta based on # of creatures sacrificed. Also should activate death effects.  Should it affect quinted creatures? I honestly don't know.

I guess that what I should have said (and actually meant to say) was that I think there should be ANOTHER card with a different mechanic.

. Cells and skeles are both 1|1, so yeah

Point taken. There is a joke or bad pun about bone cancer lurking around in these last few posts but it would be in poor taste and I don't really want to go there. Since my first idea is useless, how about my second one?
