Card Ideas and Art / Re: Stampede | Overrun
« on: August 02, 2010, 06:34:52 am »
Just an alternative that leaves out the X: "Deal 1 damage to your opponent for each creature you control. Enemy creatures lose 2 HP."
Comparing to Unstable Gas: Your opponent doesn't have a way to stop it unless they know its coming and use mass creature control. Also unlike UG, it only requires 1 element to use, though creatures are needed for its effectiveness (it's sorta like the Hope of damage spells). I don't think the 9 cost is enough to keep it from being overpowered.
A devastating deck: 6 Gnome Gemfinders, 6 Fractal, 6 Overrun
EDIT: Reformatted for clarity.

Couple of notes: I changed the element to read Earth, instead of
as the standard is supposed to be.Also, the "link"s that yfrog gives you is a web folder and not an actual image, so I fixed that, as well. Somehow you erased part of the image tag, that's why it wasn't displaying at all.
It doesn't look like the upgraded one is using the upgraded background.

Can there be a new folder created to place all these ideas in?
The way it is now, it's filling up the FG discussion board.

If any card was deserving of rarity, I think this would be a good one. Not because of its power level, but because of its annoyingness.
Rarity is a mechanism to keep cards away from newer or casual players. What cards would you want to keep away from this group?
Powerful cards: No, not unless you want to promote elitism.
Annoying cards: Yes; newer players would not be frustrated by them, and veterans would know how to adjust to them appropriately. (see Arctic Squid)
Note: I'm not saying the card is fine as is, just noting its perceived frustrating quality.

Plus a funny side-note: You can throw out creatures against Obliterator and not worry when he casts Gravity Force on them, because his first few creatures he will cast Unstoppable on.

(http://imageplay.net/)Only 73 wins on Kong. It would be nice if we can see a break down of our games vs the different opponents like it shows on Kong.

@ratcharmer
I apologize about demanding an explanation of an interpretation that you don't hold. I guess I was essentially creating a "straw man" based on my understanding of the belief. I appreciate your even response to it.
Many different religions, only one can be correct
In my ignorance I ascribed the "fire and brimstone" mentality as a core to Christianity and apparently it is not. So, that makes very curious. Do you feel the Bible makes any statement as to the fate of non-believers?
I also have a question for anyone, just so I can better understand. Is there anything outside the Bible that influenced you in your belief that Jesus is the son of God, and that that god is the only one there is?
