Quote:I don't like the eternal pumping/shrinking ability really. It's not all that useful. Something more useful would be like "cannot be the target of spells or abilities" or a direct damage attack like he did with spybot.
I didn´t do it because it could be useful. I did it because it was flavorful :). But I see your point, I´d like to see Termis played. So maybe I´ll add the untargetability. But I don´t want to give him huge direct damage. My experience (as little as it may be) has shown that "5 color" really means "for green based decks" or "for sunburst decks" only. Green and direct damage just don´t mix well.
Quote:Also, unlike most of your other cards, which are quite overpowered, he's quite expensive for his cost. I mean sliver queen is a 7/7 for one mana of each type.
Yeah, I know that they are overpowered. They´re Eternals. That´s the idea. But yes, I went a little too far on the cost. Guess those flashy abilities got me carried away. Maybe a drop of 2: 3WGRUB should be enough. That´s high too, but remember: evasion, trample, first striker, and he´s an 11/10, all in one. And I´m gonna add untargetability, but only against
opponent´s spells. Like Troll Ascetic. Those are things that our dear Queen can´t match, hence the higher cost. Actually, it seems that if the opponent doesn´t have a Wrath of God or Final judgement, they are pretty much screwed. Termis is a brutal finisher, wich was the basic idea, yet he´s difficult to hardcast. But there are ways to get around that (Defense of Heart anyone? I´m right now dreaming of playing simultaneously Eternion And Termis... Gaea´s blood, it´s SCARY :)).
By the way, I just noticed the lack of sorceries or instants. I have centered too much on characters. Reading the archives for a laugh, I got two little stupid ideas, but all sets have their share of stupid cards, don´t they?
