[Official] Dimensional Shield | Phase Shield

Would you rather have 1 dim in a deck, or 1 titanium shield? Dim is only really good in numbers, its one of the drawbacks.  IT's only good if you can chain it.

Greetings Artan,
is it?, I doubt, if had a choose between dimm and titanium, in the aether or earth, surely choose dimm, and another, is better see opponents with titanium with protect artifact than a simple dimm. (at least for me who like to hit heavy)

Greetings, Vangelios!
It is as you said, since you like to hit heavy, Dim Shield or Wings is your nemesis. However, I love playing with Adrenalined Horned Frogs and (especially) Forest Scorpions; for me a Titanium Shield is my nemesis here.

I understand, but let's now the choice of defense, which you would prefer to defend your deck "minimin" is what I call decks with creatures <4 atk, if dimm or titanium is like life, which you would use?

It's all about the deck. You cannot really argue to nerf this card unless you have a severe lack of PC. Eliminating the Dimensional Shield's power by increasing the quanta cost would hurt the game more than help it.

I argue that the Dim Shield is balanced, because of the point above what I just said. 1 Dimensional Shield is nothing compared to any other shield. You have to spend a whopping 36 (or 30 upgraded) aether quanta just to chain 6. Why not have a 4 earth quanta shield then?

How about turning Dim Shield into a "maintained spell" like flooding? That would make 6 dims a waste against decks that don't pack much PC, and would make deflagging dims easier.

So 1 Dim Shield would protect for indefinite turns? No thanks.

[eaglgenes101]

Yes, but as in like:
4 . Physical attacks cannot hit you. Drain 2 per turn.

So that + Enchant Artiface + Mirror shield = Instant Win! lolololol dafuq

If you find a way to get two shields at once that is

That is pretty much what Dissipation Shield/Field are, and they are way better balanced than Dim Shield in my opinion.

It depends on how you look at it. I see titanium shield as having the drawback that you can only make use of one, but it is not reliable unless you put more than 1 in your deck. Many (not all) of the cards that increase in power as you have more, are strong cards because of that: Dim Shield, sundial, nova/supernova (more so pre-nerf), devourer/pest, black hole, silence, cloak (?).

Worthless with few, powerful with more VS. Good with one, same with more.
Just giving and taking.

As in cheaper than 6 existing Dimensional Shields?
36 + 6 cards ~= 48 = 4 + 44 = 22 turns with your version > 18 turns with the existing version

I, who does not hate decks, would hate the Aether Earth deck based on 2 Protect Artifacts, 2 Aether Pillars and 1 of your version.

Besides, it would tread on Diss Shield. It's almost always better to use Dim Shield this version, since Diss Shield can only block 6 damages at most with the same cost.
