Card Ideas and Art / Re: Shard | Shard of Balance

Meh. A little low in cost, particularly for those high HP cards

Upped flying Titan: 29|29 with momentum, 3 cards, 4 generic + 5 gravity cost. Quint adds total immortality for 3 Aether, and bam.

Yeah.

Opponent's Ruby bothering you? Bam, 8|8 for three generic.

So, to clarify, it uses current attack and HP values and adjusts the current values?

What would happen if I used it on my Elite Pegasus that I double BB'd, then adrenalined?

Voodoo doll + BB + this = 20|20 attacker + instant 20 damage. Then heal it with Angel, and you have a 20|40, then this again is 10 damage and 10 attack increase.

I don't know if this is that weird, inasmuch as it is quite useless in a timebow, but I got a 0/20 voodoo doll with immaterial.

If your opponent had eclipse/nightfall and a shield that let you attack, it's not totally useless. A carapace would work.

It would be fairly easy to make it work normally, from a coding PoV, to just use a double or a float and then cast it to an int.
Note that this demonstration is fairly simple.

Instead of the current method, something like this:

Code: [Select]

int attack = 10;
int hp = 100;
attack = attack + 1;
attack = attack / 2;
hp = hp - attack;It could be possible to do something more like this

Code: [Select]

int hp = 100;
double attack = 10;
attack = attack + 1;
attack = attack / 2;
hp = hp - (int)attack;After those two examples, it's the same end hp. You then double both, and you have 10 and 11, respectively. Obviously the code doesn't look exactly like that; this just illustrates the point. Also, this may not be valid in Flash or whatever; it's a workaround in Java/C++, as those are the languages I know.

IIRC, it doesn't destroy the creatures, it combines their stats. No epic bonewall for you.

it's almost impossible to outdeck a fg have you tried this deck?

Not that hard to deck FGs out. Osiris is quite easy to deck out, particularly using chained Phase Shields + Electrocuter, though Eternity can make it take a little longer. Remember, unless they have 7 cards at the start of the turn, they draw 2 each turn.
