ART: IDEA: Foofatron NOTES: made to counter mass cc. Pseudotype Hybrid, Death/Time. Cost paid in either. SERIES:

I was thinking of a few ideas, but settled with this one. I thought of one with 5 | 2 with the effect draw one when killed, but poison rush is already pretty good.

I know what Thantos is, but not everyone does, so that may need some explaining.

[foofatron]

Fix'd.

[timetock]

So thanatos means either or ?

[dragonsdemesne]

Oh, the fun I would have with this in a cremation rush :p  Probably should have at least +1 cost just so that you can't chain them off of a single nova or cremation and draw half your deck on the first turn.

[foofatron]

I knew somebody would say cremation, but it'd be better to use SoB. The only way you could use two one t1 is if you drew 2 entropy pend, 2 cremations, 1 Super nova, and 2 of this. Or 2 nova, 2 crem, and 2 of this. You'd have to get pretty lucky, and even then SoB would've been faster and more consistent.

The cost can be payed in either death or time.

[dragonsdemesne]

Oh, so it couldn't be paid with 1 death and 1 time?  If so, then that definitely slows down that plan somewhat.  However, even then, it's still better than SoB, because you aren't capped by your opponent's hand size.  Now, if we ever get a way to force the opponent to discard cards from hand... that might change.

[timetock]

could add this the malignant cell deck? afla this, draw cards, use SoB and SoP... some sort of combo. Like that FG grinding deck.

[foofatron]

Whoops, my understanding was wrong. It can be any combination of the two pools. So 1 nova, 1 crem, 2 of this; yeah it should be upped to 3.

[EmeraldTiger]

Hybrid costs pull randomly from the envolved elements.

[dawn to dusk]

So thanatos means either or ?

Thanatos is the Greek god of death. Rather than Hades which is the Greek god of the underworld. The cost can either be played in time since Greek mythology relates to a religion from ages ago in the past (see Anubis) or death since Thanatos is the Greek god of death.

[timetock]

ehh I think it's a good idea and is a ok way to counter mass cc. I'm just unsure about the shared cost function - much simpler to have it one way or the other, even though I understand the thematics.
Also I get the Thanatos reference. #PercyJackson
