I just won this card from the oracle.
They're released? o.O
I don't see how this would fit into a deck...

I've been pulling these cards from fate eggs since I started playing not so long ago - and then popped one from the oracle, I'm SO happy, my time deck is being rebuild slightly for this card (hopefully Ill find another soon)
For me at least this is best card Ive seen yet!

It's a good card (imho), my first draw at the oracle. Fits well in a time based deck. Very useful, damage and life ok, and in the end it costs only 9 (more than Anubis and less than a Dragon).

Hmm...

Plus:
6/8, alot of hp and quite a lot of damage
card draw rivaling hourglass
bonus of precog

Neg:
Forced card draw
Costs a lot
Equal to hourglass if you have creatures that do the damage

It might be useful in a mono or maybe a duo deck, but rainbows aren't really interested in this (in my opinion) since:
1. the nymph isn't supposed to do the damage anyway
2. it has to be quinted which takes a quint away from an otyugh, fallen druid, firefly queen.
3. :time:time vs :time to draw a card (unless it costs  :time when upgraded
4. it costs a lot so it can't be popped early unless you have abundant time quantums... (not viable in a rainbow..hmm maybe if fully upgraded, but see 2.)

At least that's just my 2 cents, i just won one from the oracle and i think i'll take the 900 gold and upgrade something in my deck instead. It's a nice card, but it doesn't fit into my rainbow (i know it wasn't meant to anywho).

I would have thought a time nymph would be much weaker, in hp and attack, and cost less - so it would be easier to remove, but maybe the risk of a quint on it is too great...hmm still 4 extra aether quantums :S

The point isn't only drawing. It's seeing the opponent's hand, Imho.

This card, if you can get a handful them, almost singlehandedly validates mono-time. Times biggest hurdle as a mono is individual card versitility. Excepting Eternity, each time card serves a particular specific purpose, and rapidly becomes less useful in certain types of match-ups. Filling a time deck with hourglasses hurts its early game, even if you have loads of time quanta. However, filling a mono-time with golden nymphs serves as both a card draw, and a damage source, seeing the opps hand every turn its out is just icing on the cake =)

One of the best nymphs out there.

best thing about it is? .. not only you can draw another card, but (this kind of suprises me) it has 6|8. all that just for 9 time quanta! sadly i don't have this nymph :(
