other than that nice idea. ;)Thank you very much!
Bastet's (and later Sekmeht's) role was a protector and defender of pharaohs, even after death and, by this, was often mentioned together with Anubis by her side, who was the god of afterlife. Idea is, that if there's any of the two played (on your side) they gain the bonus from it - regardless of the sequence they've been played.but im assuming all you need is just one Anubis or Pharaoh for the creatures bonus to be activated, a soon as one of them are played, all you have to worry about is a sekmeht that costs 4 to fractal it, i still recommend raising it´s cost to 5 :time
Was thinking about the cost much, though, but having a look at the 9 :time of Pharaohs and the 8 :time of the Anubis, it would be quite some 'time' to maintain all the quanta needed to play them out, especially with fractal. And compared to the other elements, most of them have stronger or same attack creatures for a lower cost.
Plus you'll be needing an extra amount of :time for the scarabs if Pharaoh, and an extra :aether to use the Immortality of the Anubis.other than that nice idea. ;)Thank you very much!
I think the cost is right, might be even underpowered so you can make it 3 :time, but then considering fractal 4 should be better.Thank you, BloodAngel!
but i really like the idea, its good 'nd original, fills in the empty middle attacker spot for time, fit's the theme and its a kitty!! :o
Ps. I suppose that if the enemy has a pharaoh/ anubis on the field you get the bonus as well?
Yeah i admit im good :PI think the cost is right, might be even underpowered so you can make it 3 :time, but then considering fractal 4 should be better.Thank you, BloodAngel!

Now that's a very good question.. Probably it shouldn't (at least, that would seem logical - their role seems kinda weird to defend someone from the opponent army), but as I'm thinking now, I don't know how easily could that be implemented..
Edit - Opinions are welcome about this too
..But you would have to pay for the Pharaoh or the Anubis (which means 9 or 8 :time) to get that +2 damage. 4 :time as a cost is completely fine, in my opinion.If Pharaoh and Anubis are balanced then their casting cost is of no matter for it brings equal value and thus is only of importance about how often on average will it be there boosting Bastet. You are not paying 9 or 8 :time to get the +2 damage rather you made a down payment (Bastet) so later you could get more than you paid for (Anubis and +2damage). Assuming the ability is active only 50% of the time a balanced price would be 50% x 4 :time value + 50% x 6 :time value = 5 :time value.
As for your propositions regarding Sekhmet,As this, edited first post:
- increasing the attack would probably make it one of the best cost 4 creatures. I'm not sure how close to OP it would be, probably it would be acceptable, since Fire, Life and nova rushes would still be faster than mono-Time.
It's entirely up to Zanz, if he wants Time to be a slower element, or if he wants it to join the best rushers.
- decreasing the cost... I don't like this idea when used on creatures, especially ones that change their name and appearance when upgraded. Generally, when we think of upgrading a creature, we imagine it becoming stronger, not cheaper. Look at Mummies - isn't it strange that Elite Mummies aren't stronger than normal Mummies? The name 'elite' would suggest more experienced and better armed creatures. It's true that Micro Abominations and Minor Phoenixes are an obvious exception, but in general I'd rather see cost decreases for spells and permanents, while stat increases for creatures.
Originally she was viewed as the protector goddess of Lower Egypt. As protector, she was seen as defender of the pharaoh, and consequently of the later chief male deity, Ra, who was also a solar deity, gaining her the titles Lady of Flame and Eye of Ra.She was a cat-headed goddess, and later somewhat merged with Sekhmet.
Her role in the pantheon became diminished as Sekhmet, a similar lioness war deity, became more dominant in the unified culture of Lower and Upper Egypt.
