Astral Spirit | Astral Faerie

[MatrimKK]

I don't have a problem with the attack tbh, for something that is pure card advantage profit, I think it should have less hp.

[OldTrees]

Casting Cost: 2 |3
Activation Cost:  |
Primary Cost: 1 draw + Casting Cost
Secondary Cost: 2 + Casting Cost
Replacing the Draw cost is typically only worth 1 extra quanta
Conclusion: Activation Cost should be  .

Comparison to Growth
Unupped
2 [Attack] +0 [0>hp>6] +2 [Growth] -X [Activation Cost = Y] = 4-X = Y
2 [Attack] +0 [0>hp>6] +2 [Growth] -1 [Activation Cost = 3] = 4-1 = 3 = 2 +1card

4 [Attack] +0 [0>hp>6] +4 [Double Growth] -X [Activation Cost = Y] -2 [Upgraded] = 6-X = Y
4 [Attack] +0 [0>hp>6] +4 [Double Growth] -2 [Activation Cost = 4] -2 [Upgraded] = 6-2 = 4 = 3 +1card


Steam Machine: Gains +5 per turn but loses 1 per turn.
Firefly Queen: Gains +3 per turn
Lava Golem: Gains +2 per turn
Astral Spirit: Doubles every turn, quanta permitting. However quanta tends to not permit 68 quanta in 6 turns. So I will include a reduced speed version that is limited to 5 quanta gained per turn instead.

Column 2&3: Lava Golem (cost is  + + 1 [my constant used to equalize duo quanta costs])
Column 4&5: Firefly Queen (cost is  + + 1)
Column 6&7: Steam Machine: (cost is  + + 1)
Column 8&9: Astral Spirit (limited to 5 quanta produced per turn)

How long did it take u to calculate that

Casting Cost: 2 |3
Activation Cost:  |

How long did it take u to calculate that 

15 minutes total? I reused 3/8th of the table from a previous post but both posts together took about 15 minutes.

[ZephyrPhantom]

Also, how does "Propagation" sound for the skill name?

I think it would fit better than Ionize, so I'll use it.

Great help as always, Oldtrees, +rep and thanks!

Card updated and submitted for Crucible review.
