New Elements?

[Arondight]

  I opened the thread to see suggestions about new elements and I see Doodle God.. It was a fun 20 minute game, though.

Topic-wise:

I think a good Element would be "Metal" or "Mecha." I imagine that these humanoid robots, mechanized suits, etc. would have some kind of racial boost while having different elemental abilities from all the elements, just very high tech styles and repercussions to those abilities. Since we're acting as elementals who control the elements, I imagine a "Metal" or "Mecha" elemental would resemble some kind of artificial and mobile humanoid container made to hold a certain element (or more) inside.

Go robot invasion.

Problem is if it is Nothing, then it wouldn't have any cards. Giving it any cards would make it something.

Even if they have no art or affects?

I might be ok with that if they also had no name

Anyway, I propose that any new element that is added be called "Heart".

Seriously? and what is heart?


And if anyone quotes any elements from DoodleGod I might just make a mockery of you.

Maybe the one you obtain human+human would be good.

But they would all have costs and types. That much is a necessity.

You might aswell call it what it is: Cheese.

They all have no effects so no cost is required and as nothing cards, has nothing for element type. LOL The whole element could be presented with No cards. LOL

i was thinking about an element that focuses HEAVILY on creature stats and cost. it would have a number symbol as its mark. it will have effects such as "your opponent pays 1 extra quanta on every card/effect they use next turn" and "you pay 1 less quanta...etc" and some of the effects could reduce attack|hp, but not kill. or it can do the reverse.

Knowledge vs. Intention

I tough the Divine vs Void was good, it could be rare elements (not available with quantum, just from something like a shard) for rare cards (maybe OP) like nymph.

But the problem of balance could be an issue.

Hows that for some elements
(ps, I thought doodle God was actually pretty stupid...)

[Selenbrant]

Some of these even dont scratch the characteristic of an element.
For example Boiler, then maybe too:
spoon
diaphragm
rubiks cube
pi

Even if see elements from a different angle(periodic table) you wont find dinosaur, bird...,although "119:dinosaur" who knows

My idea for divine was that it'd be available only from "pillar of divinity" cards which produce quanta like pillars but don't produce at the end of their first turn in play. This divine quanta could then be spent as quanta of any colour. For example, say you had 7 divine quanta you could play a phoenix but if you had 7 divine quanta and 8 fire you could play a crimson dragon and have 3 divine left over.
Pillars of Divinity would be unupgradeable and hard to obtain (possibly like nymphs or marks). They would primarily be used by a not so false god who played ridiculous cards from every element.

Divine VS Void seems fine until you realise that void only works as a regular element and divine only really works as a special quanta type.

Why is this being discussed? It's a stupid idea and would mean an inane amount of coding that most of the people in this topic wouldn't want/don't know how to do.
