See, I considered that, but that makes it sound like the 1 damage is temporary.

Would this work?
"﷯﷯﷯: Your creatures gain
+2|0 for 1 turn but lose 1 hp."
It will fit for Activation Costs of 1-3

That's slightly too long.  The first two lines say "Weapon: deal X damage at the end of every turn."  There's very little room left.

Maybe it'll come to me in a dream tonight...

EDIT: " :fire : Your creatures gain +2|0 for 1 turn but take 1 damage."  It's a little sloppy, and 1 :fire activation cost might be too low.

This card seems good, but why not (going with original idea) change the elements of the cost? I don't actually know if this would work but it seems like noone else has brought it up

Change "take 1 damage" to "lose 1 hp" if the activation cost needs to increase (I tested it and it fits  :fire :fire :fire and the rest in 2 of the 4 lines leaving room for the Weapon clause.)

The original was duo-element because the effect was so powerful.  Because Fire creatures tend to have very low HP, this weapon can be mono-Fire without being too powerful; to get the most out of it, you probably want to use it in combination with other stuff.

I am also enhancing the art for this a little, I didn't like the plain black background.

By that I meant why not make it entropy? Or earth? etc.

Updated with new mechanic and art!  If you haven't voted for this card (or even if you have), give it a look-see.  I am happy with it... not as happy as with Reprisal, but still.  :D

If the effect damages the creatures instantly, shouldn't the card read 2|-1?
With the current wording, i understood they attacked before getting damage.

+2|-1 for 1 turn would indicate that the damage is temporary. It is not temporary hence it is in a separate sentence.
