Suicidal Blow

[blarp]

Sorry for no image, in class atm.

How about a 0 hp immortal creature with like 10-15 attack. Maybe 5 cost?

Designed not to be able to last more than 1 turn. Hopefully SoP doesnt work.

Thoughts?

If this should be in presmithy or whatever oh wells!

Well, SoP buffs immortal creatures. We know from Spark that 0 hp creatures can survive using SoP.
Thus, this would be too OP with SoP, unless you somehow got in a specific clause to make SoP not work, like an ability called "Impatient" or something.

Also, if you think about it, this is basically the same thing as a spell that does physical damage. This means that it's weaker, since the usage of Dim Shield, DR Shields, Dusk Shields, and Fog Shields eclipses the usage of Reflective and Emerald Shield. Therefore, if you wanted to balance this, you'd probably make it a bit cheaper than a spell that deals the same damage.

Darn SoP! Maybe make this card start with -100 hp

Not many spells do 15 damage.

How much cheaper should it be? 3 is too little imo. 4-5 seems about right.

Could increase damage I guess or make it deal spell damage. Or include an effect where it dies after 1 turn.

Why don't you just make it a spell?

The term "Suicidal Blow" doesn't really sound like a creature to me anyway.

Yeah it was a quick BS name effect is all that matters to me.

Making it a spell makes it weaker sorta. Has synnergies with death atm and I think it probably should be influenced by shields in some way and sundial.


A spell that does 15 damage isnt worth posting as an idea anyway

[whatifidogetcaught?]

How about, Giant Lemming? It starts with -2 HP?

it could start with 0 hp or more if its text said "when this creature attacks, it dies at end of turn" or something like that (wich actually makes sense, given the name)

this would enable some synergy with SoP without really abusing it

that could work.

Sorry Annele, it's just that this is much less viewed than normal smithy....
