This + SoSa + SoD + some poison = 

I think you've just described how that works with 80% of the cards in the game.

op imo- each of it's 2 abilities by themselves are good concepts- but together they are too awesomely good. you can destroy your opponents pillars disgustingly fast if you get 6 out, and all the while your hp is rising. I think you should either split it into 2 cards or make it somethng like the sundial where it dies after the second turn.

So for 6 cards and lots of quanta you can 'destroy' 6 pillars per turn. Are you sure looking at 6 of a kind is the more accurate point for balancing? Typically I would examine 2 copies and the costs associated with them compared to the 3 card Animated Pulverizer (1 animated 1 not).

You think that together the card is too powerful. Please explain your reasoning.

Well I think that  and  per turn is extremely cheap for destruction. Pulveriser is  and  per turn if i'm not mistaken, and it doesn't heal you, and there is added cost in animating it- in which case you need to get animate weapon AND pulverizer. For this if you have an earth time deck I think you could totally destroy them. Also considering that this requires earth quanta as well- a quanta denial deck with earthquakes in it as well would be likely.
