Deflagration should destroy 7 Bone Walls

i don't think that the shield slot is "stackable", because if i play 2 fire buckler they don't stack...

Its not the slot that is stackable, it is the card itself.

Permanent slots arent always stackable. In fact they only are if its a pillar. Same with shields. The slot itself isnt what determines if it is stackable or not, it is the card.

so the bone wall card is stackable?
what if i play a bone wall when there's a bone wall in play?
does it stack?

[dracomageat]

because bone wall stacks.

Read the shield slot. One shield per player. Shields cannot stack without breaking this rule. Thus bone walls break the rules.

To make them work within the rules, bone walls should use "charges". Each damage source removes a charge but 1 deflag destroys the whole shield.

You have to think beyond that
You have to compare it with a lot of obstacles (bones) that block one damage source at a time.
You if i put a bone like this  _ (ground)  | (bone)    its like
_|_|_|_|_|_|_ etc
whether its a deflag/steal or a damage source  it just removes one stick, but there are many others beyond that one.

But  i do recommend giving Zanz the opportunity to make the decission,
and you guys, don't spend your time to discuss about this card

If this is implemented bone wall loses a lot of it's appeal though, I can't see why you think it's OP as it is because I think it's just right and fits the death elemental theme right.

agreed plus the bone wall forms an excellent combo with oty or RoF against the FG
if your using a traditional rainbow

Its because Bone wall itself is a stack of shields. You cant stack stacks, the new stack will replace the old stack.

Its one shield card with 7 shields on it.

Blue most of your time you make stuff up
you can stack shields because the bone shield is stackable, but you can't stack stacks of bone shields?

give me a break

the real problem here is that there is one exception on the rules just for one card, it does not really make sense to me...

Its one shield card with 7 shields on it.

so it's a single card with "shield counters" on it...
i am deflagrating the card (which is 1 as you say) so it should go away with one shot...

No you're not. Where did you read that? You're deflagrating one permanent, not one card. Spells are applied to creatures and permanents, not cards.

you got me,
i don't know what to say,
i said card instead of permanent...

Notice how this game is not magic.
I never said shield counters. I said a stack of 7 shields. Each shield is 1 permanent. The same logic is applied to pillars. You have a limit of permanent slots, but your pillars do not take up 1 slot each, the same is applied here.

Now as to the stacks not stacking, that is actually very simple. THEY DONT. Im not making anything up there, its just a fact of life^tm. Look at it like this. The general rule of shields is that UNLESS THE CARD SAYS OTHERWISE they do not stack.
Bone wall says that you can place 1 bone wall, and it "summons 7 bone shields that absorb damage from a single source."
Say you have 20 bone walls up right now. You play it, like any other shield, it replaces your current shield (which just so happens to be a bone wall)l and "summons 7 bone shields that absorb damage from a single source."

Theres nothing that defies logic about this card. It wouldnt make since if it DID stack 7 more onto each bone wall you play.
