Smuglapse, you have to post a puzzle of your own if you've got a valid solution to a previous puzzle.  Even if it's stupid easy, that's the rule. :)
If something happens and you think it deserves my attention, feel free to PM me. Other than that, I'm probably here if you want to shoot the breeze.

Ok, I wasn't sure if that was the correct solution to theOwner's puzzle because he never confirmed the pet use.

New Puzzle
No pets allowed.

By the end of the first turn you should have 1 creature that can not be affected by any opposing cards except Sundial and you should have zero permanents (besides your initial Mark).  On the second turn you should be able to destroy 2 different permanents leaving yourself with zero quanta.  Assume the opponent uses Nightmare but does nothing to disturb your quanta.

New puzzle:
*End your first turn with no creatures on the field, one pillar, and you've done 12 damage and still have a total of 79 quantum.  Your opponent hasn't gone yet.
Is a pet allowable?
A "classic" pet. If a pet solution is found, I'll let it happen.
I was asking about TheOwner's puzzle--I found a solution using a pet Phoenix.

BTW, does anyone know if the pet list = un-upped hatch list?
I guess a pet is okay, but when I did it I didn't use a pet.  Try to solve it without one...
New puzzle:
*End your first turn with no creatures on the field, one pillar, and you've done 12 damage and still have a total of 79 quantum.  Your opponent hasn't gone yet.
1 pet (non-immaterial)

1 Immolation 7 :fire, 1 :entropy, 10 other [Total 18]
1 Entropy Tower 1 :entropy [Total 19]
3 Supernovae 6 :fire, 60 other [Total 85]
2 Fire Bolts -6 :fire (12 damage) [Total 79]

I see you used all unupped cards, I used all upped cards when I solved mine.  That makes a big difference.

Anyone give up yet and just wants the answer?

Well,

After your first turn, you have one creature and 54 quanta, nothing else. You opponent is left with 77 HP's

Yes, you can (and probably might need to) use a pet.
any mark.
Pet: Mind Flayer.  (Any 2-power critter will do.)

Hand:

Photon
Nova
Cremation
Supernova
Ball Lightning
Spark
Spark


- Play Photon
- Play Cremation (9 :fire, 1 of each other)
- Play Nova (10 :fire , 2 of each other, total 32)
- Play Supernova (12 :fire, 2 :entropy, 4 of each other, total 54.)
- Play 1x Ball Lightning, 2x Spark

The creatures deal 13 damage (bringing opponent to 77), and you end with 54 quanta, with no permanents, 1 creature, and no cards in hand.

End your first turn with no creatures on the field, one pillar, and you've done 12 damage and still have a total of 79 quantum.  Your opponent hasn't gone yet.  No pets, no unupped cards

Quantum Tower. (3 :entropy = 3)
Supernova. (3 :entropy , 2 all = 25)
Supernova. (3 :entropy , 4 all = 47)
Supernova. (3 :entropy , 6 all = 69)
Supernova. (3 :entropy , 8 all = 91)
*

So, you have 2 card to deal 12 damage AND use up 12 quantum without leaving any creatures in play.  I don't think it's possible without using ANY upped cards. 

If something happens and you think it deserves my attention, feel free to PM me. Other than that, I'm probably here if you want to shoot the breeze.

Miscalculation, 100-13=87, not 77 ;)

Want a hint?

Heres one using a pet... I think this will give you an idea of what is needed...
(Phoenix as pet)
Cremation
Cremation
Phoenix
Cremation
Cremation
Fire Bolt

This ends you with 77 quantum, so your along the right lines but it aint perfect.  It also only uses 6 cards.

Well, you have to either count the sparks as creatures too, or you will have to count the mark generating one quantum ;)

I meant the last one.
