Odd question: if the card is healed to keep it from dying, will its attack start to go negative if the ability keeps getting used.

Hmmm.... Good question. But... isn't that interesting? overuse would cause harm to yourself... pretty much like the real copycat...

I know that everyone is looking at the ability... but does no one have a problem with a 5 | 5 in Aether for only 2 :aether?  Elite Cockatrice has the same stats, no ability, and costs 3 :life - plus, it isn't in the same element as Fractal.
This thing seemed dead inside. It seemed like an automaton, trying to act like as if it was alive. The effect was unsettling.
Orianna made a sound that supposed to a girl's squeal of glee and hugged The Ball. While it might have been touching, it was unfortunately only horrifying.

good question... I'll change it to 5 :aether for the upped version and 3 :aether for the unup one.

No, really, the costs are balanced... maybe, just remove the ATK reduction and set the ATK of both cards to 2 or 3.

Hmm, you do have a point on the stats, they should probably be lowered a bit... at least the attack damage anyway...
As for being in element with fractal, this is actually a good thing since fractal depletes all :aether when used, it will actually be harder to spam not easier.
Whether the glass is half full or half empty is a moot point. It is always filled to the brim. It is only a matter of by what. The real question is: What fills you?
If your zombie plan is
kill -9 `ps l | awk '{print $2" "$3" "$9}' | grep "Z" | awk '{printf("%s ",$2)}'`

Or 0? Or 1? In the end to copy a card is quite a strong ability...

I think making it 3 :aether for both would work well. This puts the unupped on par with water's blue crawler and the upped version with life's elite cockatrice. The current 2 :aether for a 3|3 will overshadow life's frog card which is already tough enough being a 3|3 vanilla, adding a very strong ability on top is a little too much I think.

Thanks for the advice, I've updated the card~

It still overshadows elite cock

I suggest dropping attack, raising cost further would cause it to step on psions toes

CURATOR COMMENT

This card will not be permitted into the Crucible due to one or more of the following errors:

  • Images do not match table information.

Correct these errors as soon as possible and feel free to resubmit when ready.

Thank you. ^_^



I spy with my Eagle's Eye images that were not updated to say Dupli'cat.

EDIT: Also, if there exists no Series, leave that space blank. Always. If you wish to keep your request, put it in notes.

It is slightly OP, still.  Attack power should be dropped to 1 or 2, and the copy penalty changed to -0/-1.
