NOTES: [/color][/b] This is a card I've been meaning to do a long time now. I would love to have a "time bomb" in Elements, and Time is the perfect element for that. Fire as the ability cost is because you have to light the "fuse" of this bomb to activate it. I didn't think about game balance that much to be honest. To save time (no pun intended) I just inserted numbers almost by random. I'll make changes later if this feels over or underpowered.

Broken, OP, Too complex

lol

Time bomb is an interesting idea. Seems it should be cheaper and of a toughness that can be addressed by the opponent. Otherwise why not just use Rain o Fire?

[Scaredgirl]

Ah yes.. Rain of Fire.. Yep, the card definitely needs to change. In my effort in not making it too OP, I copied RoF by mistake.

My original version did 10 damage to all (both opponents and your) creatures and players as well. I was also considering a bomb that destroyed permanents. Bigger bombs like that would of course need to cost more.

Hm.. I need to rethink this a bit..

EDIT: I buffed the card a bit.

Still looks like a more expensive Rain of Fire. But I really like the concept. Reminds me of Bombs from the Final Fantasy Series. Maybe increase the damage and decrease the health a bit?

Yes, HP should definitely be less. It's a freaking POT so it having 10 HP is pretty ridiculous. On the other hand I think if it's less than 5, it would be too easy of a target to Otyughs. I might drop it to 5.

increased damage? Hmm.. not 100% sure about that. Keep in mind that you play more than one at a time which would clear the whole table pretty fast.

I don't have strong feelings on what the actual effect is. It's all good. I just want to time bomb concept because it would bring an interesting new strategic element to gameplay when you have to wait for the bombs to explode before you can play your creatures, etc.

I made one of these on KONG
it was 0/1 7 time, had explode where it delt 3 damage to all creatures and 20 to both players.

its buried in the kong section *over 60 pages* it doesnt matter, it was ignored and called op, this one seems to be better but might i suggest -2 damage to all creatures and deal some damage to the players and lower stats.

[DrunkDestroyer]

Why not differentiate it from ROF and at the same time make it more time specific.
2 damage done and 2 turns in a time bubble?

I like it, but maybe add " and does 3 to the opponent's HP"

I wanted to get new ideas and at the same time see if my idea had been done before so I went to Kong and searched your whole post history there without finding this bomb you talk about. I only found a "smoke bomb" which was something totally different.

I wanted to get a big BOOM! 2 damage is not enough.

I like it, but maybe add " and does 3 to the opponent's HP"

Hm.. maybe. But why not do the same 6 damage to opponent too?
