i feared the description would be a little bit lengthy on the card, so i clarified it in the Notes section of my original post (at least i hoped i did ).

realy nice, but i think the opponent should tack less damage, at least in the non-upgraded one.

since the opponent has the control over the damage he takes from the shield, i think 10 damage is appropriate, there are much more powerful spells in the game. also healing is not hard to come by. is there anything, i might have missed, that is making the damage too high?

Hmm....

This with a steal mutant is a potential 10 damage per turn by stealing your own stuff 0.o

doesnt work like this. your enemy has to steal your permanents (frankly, i didnt even know it was possible to steal your own stuff)

This would go great with Sundial...

it only triggers, if the enemy tries to destroy or steal your permanents. not if one of your permanents is destroyed, because its counter reaches 0.

Card Ideas and Art / Re: God/Titan Series

« on: July 24, 2010, 10:55:39 pm »

Your series has a few problems:

-The cards are too small I'm having trouble reading them
-There are thirteen major Greek Gods, there should be one for every element and one left over unfortunately you also went into the Roman Gods (same as Greek different names) I think it would be better to just use the Greek Gods same abilities just change the names
-These cards upgrades are the same as the basic version
-Make individual threads for each card
-Many are OPed

For which gods match which elements:

Aphrodite- Time                 (Timeless Beauty)
Apollo- Light                      (God of The Sun)
Ares- Earth                        (God of War)
Artemis- Darkness             (God of The Moon)
Athena- Aether                  (God of Immortality)
Demeter- Life                     (God of Agriculture)
Dionysus- Entropy             (God of Wine)
Hades- Death                    (God of Death)
Hephaestus- Gravity          (God of Construction)
Hera- Other                       (Shes the mother of all gods nothing really here)
Hermes- Fire                      (God of Speed)
Poseidon- Water                (God of Water)
Zues-Air                             (God of The Sky)

Also a minor god series (cheaper less powerful versions) would be nice to especially since there are gods named Aether and Entropy

i would rather have apollo for fire, if he is the god of the sun and hermis for light, if he is the god of speed (nothing is faster than light).

bojengles has a point, there is no proof whatsoever, that something like a soul exists. if it doesnt, there is no difference between the cat not existing and being dead. on the other hand, there would be the problem, why the cat suddenly should stop existing, just because we're not observing it.

It has come to my attention that the reason http://elementsthegame.com is down at the moment, is because [you] hacked into it and deleted everything after taking a copy a of it. [you] then PM'd me saying he holds the databases ransom and will delete them all unless he gets 6 copies of each Nymph.

This is bad. Guys, what are we going to do?!

[you] why are you doing this?

what the hell? is this a joke??? im letting a virus scan running right now!
guys, youre worrying me, i dont know, if this was a joke from sg or not. i cant find any clue, that my account has been hacked. either at the forums or in the game.

but if this wasnt a joke, then someone managed to get to my data and damaged the game through my account. i dont even know the first thing about hacking.

i like this card. i also suggest you to create spell like this (which has synergy with this permament):
Sacrifice a permanent to heal yourself for 10. (pair of immolation/cremation). Name should be e.g. oblation..

i will think about it. problem im seeing is, that such a card probably wouldnt be verry popular. the cost for one sod is only 3 quanta, it heals you for 20 hitpoints and even raises your maximum hp by 20. so the new card would have either to be verry cheap or it would have to heal a lot of hp.

I'd release holy cow, malignant cell, ash and mutant as standalone cards.

mutant is a creature with random abilitys and random stats. dont think it will be possible. what would you want with ash? phoenix is cheaper to play and at least does damage.

but i totally agree on malignant cell and the cow!

another possiblility would be, that these rare elite versions of normal cards exist, but only a limited number is allowed in each deck.this way, players would have to choose, which elite card they would use.

for example there could be an oty with 0|7. but you could only have it once in your deck and no other elite card.

Air / Re: Wings

« on: June 07, 2010, 11:34:51 am »

i think the card is fine. phase shield blocks everything. if every dragon and creature in the game, that has wings on its picture can bypass it, then its good.
what about spells, destruction, stealing, etc? they still work.

also, there is allways momentum. so titan, sapphire charger  co. can still hit you. no need for an upkeep or counter imo. a high card cost is enough.

as for the name, i think its appropriate. i mean, they ARE wings.

of course, these are just guesses of mine. these discussion threats should be locked, until the corresponding cards have been implemented in the trainer and had a chance to be tested by the community. until then, its hard to forsee the effect a card will have on the game.

edit.: just realized, that this card is already available in the trainer. but still, some other cards aren't and there is allready dicussion going on.

Really, it's weak?

It is Super-powerful. Use four of these and your opponent is dead. Use this and need only 75 damage to kill your opponent. It is so awesome!

SoD, 3 quanta. stoneskin, 2 quanta. its hard to say how powerful it really is, but many fire cards get more powerful as long, as they are in play. for example fahrenheit and fire lance. burning all your quanta is a huge sacrifice and will probably only be worth it at the beginning of a game.

i dont think there is really a need for this card in the game at the moment (at least not for fire decks), since you can beat survival decks (maximum SoD and Stoneskins + miracles). with the cards, that are already in the game.

but the idea itself is nice.
