Seems quite OP (dragon spawning is about 10-15 quanta). Reduce the chance of spawn dragon to about 10-20%?

right now, the chance of getting a free dragon is %5 per attack, and you cant control when it spawn, plus its a shield.   but if i take 10-15 quanta to spawn a dragon, average that out at 12, and multiply by %50 (chance of getting a dragon on a break) it should already be balanced at 6 :water .

I really like the theme of this card, but it's too strong.  I would recommend one of the following changes:

-Damage reduction of 1 instead of 3, so as not to outclass diamond shield, or more importantly, the in-element permafrost shield, since that's more of a direct comparison, both being water cards
-Remove the damage reduction totally and give it a fog/dusk-like effect where it blocks, say, 33% of attacks, and on each blocked attack, the dragon might get released. (either the current 20% chance per absorbed hit, or else it is released automatically after, say, 6 successful blocks or whatever number)

Also, do you intend for an ice/arctic dragon to be released every time, or a random dragon?  I think random dragons would be cooler, but possibly less thematic.  Maybe something like 50% water dragon 50% one of the other 11 at random, and 50% chance to start frozen.

i dont know why everyone thinks this is OP. it looks perfectly balanced to me. i would think this would work better if it always spawned a dragon, but the dragon always spawned frozen or congealed(assuming congeal means what i think it does, a longer freeze). maybe even frozen for upped, congealed for unupped.

why do people think it's op? because it blocks THREE damage. it's a titanium shield with the same cost but can also release a dragon. also no benefit for upgrading?
My default opinion of a new card is OP. Your job as a card creator will have to be to convince me otherwise.

titanium shield wont randomly break, this will generally break 2 turns after you lay it down.  the benefit for upgrading is spawning an upped dragon.
