So does the unupped read as " : Kill target creature" for most intents and purposes?

[seulintse]

creature dies after attacking, or dies after using ability if it was already on field before slot was flooded. This is rather OP, even though it costs 7 quanta to get out and use once with two different quanta types, since you can flood the first three slots and pretty much lock-down the opponents creature field. The inherent synergy with forest spirit is nice, but while it is a pretty expensive ability, I do feel that it should either be increased to four quanta or decrease the flooding to two turns. If this is supposed to be a synergy with flooding, I would take this over flooding any day.

[Treldon]

Decreasing flooding to 2 turns is going to be done for sure. How about the option I put in the notes - Rain dance being usable only on unoccupied slots?

[ZephyrPhantom]

Regardless of the duration of flooding the unupped is basically instakill on a stick with too few restrictions. I'd rather the unupped just be unoccupied slots instead; while that makes it more situational it's likely less of a hassle to balance as well.

[JonathanCrazyJ]

One idea could be that it floods the corresponding slot on your side of the field too. That way, because shamans are Life and not water, it gives some small restriction.
Still really OP, also reducing to 1 turn might make it just about balanced though.

Very cool ideas

[Treldon]

Reduced Rain dance to 2 turns and unoccupied slots. And added art.

[Treldon]

Bump. Is unupped still OP?

And what about upped? No responses on that so far

[Espithel]

Upped, er. Well. It's a strange upgrade. I like.

But if we're going to make another poison hoser, let's not make it require the same elements that purify does, please.

would be a natural choice, but probably boring. How about (icaro being music and singing, and sounds are Air's domain, right?)
