with the first shard being +2/+0 it would let players use only one if they chose to, and after the first shard each stack is only +1/+0 so i don't see where 1 more dmg would make to much of a difference.
as for the other card ... LOL some one actually got what the word was but like i said the name will prolly be changed. as for its usefulness i think it would be useful for not just quantum denial but to generate extra quantum specifically for ur mark. i might come up with something diff like i stated b4 i had just come up with the idea while typing the first idea out.
here is another idea i had but got so friggin frustrated with all the negative rudeness of the responses that i pretty much dropped the whole thing but its worth a look to u more supportive folks.
