What if we just remade Elements.
Not sure if this idea has been proposed before, but I'm thinking about it and it would be quite interesting to actually pull off.
What if we remade Elements into an RPG, with levels and everything? It'd still share aspects of the Elements we have now, but just be more diverse and have more to offer. Grinding would still be there but just be at a minimum.
Here's how I see it working:
You start out. Out of twelve elements, you pick your element. You are then directed to a map like the one in trainer, where you could walk around and interact with NPC's. On the top right corner of your interface reads your level, the amount of wins and losses you have accumulated, the amount of Electrum you have, and the amount of experience you must gain to level up. Sure this sounds exactly like the new Elements update that is in the forums, but with the level system.
Depending on your level, you could change your maximum HP and edit your stats like you would in arena. You level up by fighting AI and completing quests. There would be a whole bunch of new cards added and a whole bunch of quests added.
This is just my idea and how I'd like to see Elements built. I'd be able to describe it much better if I were on my PC. I am going to edit this OP. This idea is going to be expanded on. I just thought I would type it on my phone and post it somewhere in the forums so I wouldn't forget it.
