I would make the upgraded one cost 3  :gravity as well, and make it do +2/-2 instead of +2/-1.

Since this is a card that will be used with high hp creeps anyway (basilisk blood, stone form gargoyle, flying titan, you name it), this will still be powerful. It's actually like acceleration, but FASTER! =D

Also, I'm not a great fan of the upgraded name (Overboost). I guess I'd like Overdrive better.
I do very much like the name Acceleration, since it matches very nicely with gravity and momentum in providing that real physics feel to the element (and to the science feel of the game in general).
Well, I was thinking that before as well, but the idea behind Overboost vs. Acceleration is that it's better, not faster.

Overboost was something I sort of came up on the fly, so I'm open to changes.

Thesaurusing Acceleration got me Celerity, and I like the sound even though the meaning isn't exactly the same...

Anyone have a single word for describing going faster than the amount of energy that you're using should allow?

I mean with out using words like perpetual motion (deosn't match), Momentum (duh), and entropy (duh)?
That would warrant the +2/-1 and still seem like moving fasterish?

I really like this card, seems to be absolutely balanced.
Perhaps Overboost could be +2/-2 instead of +2/-1.

Super Acceleration! Jk but I think Overdrive is better than Overboost

Limit Break :P

Yeah, I think Overdrive would be good.
To be or not to be, I can do both at once. Go learn quantum mechanics, n00b.

I remembered why I didn't make it +2/-2, and not for the reason I stated above.

Frankly, it would be WAY MORE overpowered than +2/-1 (wierd, huh?)

I mean, it would like shut down every fire deck in the game is how OP it would be.

Target creature doesn't need to be your target creature.

Due to popular demand, I changed Overboost to Overdrive.

I cannot, however, change the name of the reply of every single post in the topic.
I already changed the topic name.

If you like this card, then go vote for it!  ;D
http://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php/topic,5515.0.html
Most of you said you liked it, but since the curator hasn't posted anything, I guess this topic hasn't been bumped ><.

EDIT: Wait, I'm confused...
I'm on the list for voting on the gravity section of the crucible, but no Curator comment and the discussion thread is still in the main section?

CURATOR COMMENT

My deepest apologies EvaRia - it appears that your non-upgraded card image is no longer functional.  :( Could you by chance upload the non-upped picture on a more 'steady' site before resubmitting your cards to the Crucible again?

Thanks again for your understanding.

I've noticed that other images have had half of then cut off as well.
What kind of site should I use?
