EmeraldTiger's Workshop

[OldTrees]

I still think poison on poisonous creatures is overdone. Snakes are more than just bags of poison. The other serpentine themes (like wisdom) deserve their chance too.

‹@Xenocidius› i think i just came with the mechanic for the snake.
[01:09:23] Xenocidius: ‹@EmeraldTiger› Oh?
[01:10:28] EmeraldTiger: if not killed it sheds skin and is healed
[01:11:18] Xenocidius: That's interesting.
[01:11:31] Xenocidius: So it would exhibit a similar purpose in a deck to a Phoenix?
[01:12:18] EmeraldTiger: ill make the shedding an activated skill
[01:12:24] glopso: Maybe it would heal itself to max hp each turn?


Edit: now How to word that, hmmm.

this line "The Snake is wisdom expressed through healing." from here http://www.linsdomain.com/totems/pages/snake.htm is why I am going with a self healing mechanic. many other websites said same thing.

I can personally see the psi powers justifying the high HP, as it would defend itself with psi barriers and amazing agility to boot. Of course, the option for more intricate abilities is still open.

Please Help
any suggestions are welcome.

Perhaps a mass temporary nulling effect? Only on active statuses and abilities though.
Also, I really like this Duality mark. Could I use it as my avi?

[EmeraldTiger]

How does this look?

[Xenocidius]

It looks very nice. A lot of contrast between the first and second stripe though; maybe darken the second?

[Brontos]

Shades of Grey.
Spell.
Cost  1 1 (yes both)
Darkness creatures lose Vampirism and gain +2/+0.
Light creatures gain -2/+0 and Vampirism.

Cost  1 1 (yes both)

Not going to happen anytime soon if ever. Card costs are 2 variables (Integer, Type)
2 ( or  ) would mean  ,  or  . This is a more likely addition.

Then where is the Element specified?

[EmeraldTiger]

What do you mean? Any of these cards I think is always is any cost combination of the 2 elements involved.

It is, but not the way Brontos proposed it. Normal Dual Cost cards cost X and Y, while Hybrid(aka "Duality") cards cost X or Y. The difference is that you could theorectically mono with a Hybrid card although it might not be as good as a mono card.

Darkness creatures lose Vampirism and gain +2/+0.
Light creatures gain -2/+0 and Vampirism.

This seems like a decent idea, considering that it works both for and against the Elements it associates with though. 4 Darkness/Light seems like a fair cost, given the mass-buffing nature.

Slightly offtopic:
I like the original border you came up with, ET. Could you make a  /  and an  /  one ?
