The point is? Worse versions of quantum pillar/tower? Nobody will destroy this, and even then, it's probably not worth it. Your table also doesn't match with the image.

hmm thats true.  you can destroy it yourself though? play 3 and then earthquake?   yeah this isnt my best work.

[Poker Alho]

actually this could work wonders with earthquake like you said

it could even make trident a useful weapon at last

The primary use of this would be card advantage when using a Nymph Tears deck.

Cool idea, but the fact that it's basically a random creature for 2 cards minimum makes me feel like it's UP.  Plus, it should be noted that since it's a 0-cost permanent, it can screw up mulligans (since the pillar form isn't a substantial form of quanta generation).  I would at least make the pillar provide 2 random quanta.

This is not bad at all when one considers Pulverizer and the fact that you can have an unlimited amount of pillars/towers in your deck.

How would this card interact with Nymphs Tears, or water queens ability?

Would the effect create a random nymph (like with a quantum tower), and THEN create a random creature, for a total of 2 new creatures for one ability/card? Or would only the nymph be generated?

[russianspy1234]

hmmm i hadn't thought of that.  i would say only the nymph should be generated. makes steal interesting as well since that technically "destroys" the card.

I'm not certain if that's always the case. I may be wrong, but a few days ago I had playtested a game in trainer where I used steal on an AI's nightfall. I had plagued the AI's field of darkness monsters down to 1 hp. I assumed that because nightfall temporarily was "destroyed", that the darkness creatures would die, and then nightfall would appear on my side. This was not the case.

TL;DR version, I have no idea if stealing actually counts as a "destroy", or if it just SAYS that.

Steal Copies and then Destroys the target card.

I like this a lot. Good deterent to PC, or a fun combo with tears, EQ, etc. If it weren't for the glut of "Other" type cards I would almost definitely vote for this if it were in crucible right now.
