  You could probably get a 3/3 flying lifelink for 4W, judging by Kjeldoran Gargoyle. But Hierarchy 2 isn't that hard to achieve for a 5-drop either, and there's no need to hugely push the boat out on this card.

  Flavor-wise it feels like it needs has fear and be Terror-on a stick, but then it would be broken.

• 2011-01-31 22:45:22: Alex commented on Floating Fortress

  Heh. I see :) But with this ability, it doesn't die to a single flying deathtoucher, for example.

• 2011-01-31 22:44:47: Alex commented on Ergetric Resonator

  I'm thinking of proxying up a Clockwork Wings deck or two for our Games Evening, either this Tuesday or next Tuesday, and giving it a little playtest to see how they work. (Hmm, "Clockwork Wings" was only ever meant to be a playtest name: I need to make sure to think up a better one before too long, or it'll stick...)

• 2011-01-31 22:00:38: Vitenka commented on Apprentice Animator

  Oh, that reminds me...

• 2011-01-31 22:00:11: Vitenka commented on Floating Fortress

  Well, being 10/10 makes it pretty darn likely it'll destroy one of them :)

• 2011-01-31 21:46:39: Jack V commented on Ergetric Resonator

  "Connect (: Attach to target atifact you control other than Basalt Monolith. Connect only as a sorcery.)"

  (And yes, it should be "not named" instead of "other than". It needn't even be in the reminder text if it's in the rules.)

  But that's not a serious suggestion. I agree it seems likely these connectors would be degenerate somewhere, but also I assume you're designing them not to be. And I really want to try them and see how they actually do play :)

• 2011-01-31 17:30:12: Alex commented on Bladetrap Recluse

  Hmm... you may be right. Perhaps instead "Whenever one or more creatures attack you, ~ deals 3 damage to one of those creatures"?

• 2011-01-31 17:28:22: Alex commented on Steelhoarder Recluse

  Ha!

• 2011-01-31 17:28:06: Alex commented on Commissioner Lestan

  Well, it's the green community thing, which is the flavour of the police in this set - hence collaborate (which was designed about a week before Battle Cry was previewed!). Imagine a police force all mobilising to catch one particularly tricky thief, all working together... I think that's what I was thinking when I designed this, anyway.

• 2011-01-31 17:26:17: Alex commented on Impetus Redirector

  But this only untaps nonartifact creatures, so it still doesn't do much whirring...

• 2011-01-31 17:25:54: Alex commented on Floating Fortress

  ...As in, you want it to destroy two of its blockers?

• 2011-01-31 17:25:21: Alex commented on Ergetric Resonator

  Ah, but both of them need you to find an artifact to put them on that can tap :) And this doesn't grant any way to untap things, so it's not whirr except if you dig out Basalt Monolith. And, frankly, this whole set breaks with Basalt Monolith, so I'm not going to stress over it.

• 2011-01-31 17:23:38: Alex commented on Apprentice Animator

  V's referring to the way Animate Artifact says "If it's not already a creature". Read "cygnify" as "Lignify". But I don't think it's a problem, because it can only hit artifacts you control, and there won't be many cases where you'll want to make them 1/2. Maybe on an Ornithopter :)

  EDIT: Snap.

• 2011-01-31 17:22:44: Vitenka commented on Apprentice Animator

  Ok, kinda not thinking about the 'you control' bit; I guess it turning darksteel collossi into darksteel kittens isn't such a problem, then.

• 2011-01-31 17:22:01: Alex commented on Cerebrocharge Saddle

  Hmm. Like pingers? And double strikers, I suppose. It does at least only trigger once if a creature damages the whole board. I don't think it's much more hideous than Quicksilver Dagger.

• 2011-01-31 17:20:37: Alex commented on Self-Important Courtesan

  Excellent!

• 2011-01-31 17:18:40: Alex commented on Adeline, Airlane Courier

  Hmm, true, this is rather nasty with a Whispersilk Cloak and one other equipment. And they do keep reprinting Whispersilk Cloak in core sets. Okay, this block won't have equipment that grants shroud.

• 2011-01-31 16:29:34: Chris commented on Apprentice Animator

  huh?

• 2011-01-31 16:26:34: Chris commented on Steelhoarder Recluse

  Also, they're not really gathering the resources...

• 2011-01-31 16:23:28: Chris commented on Self-Important Courtesan

  What, like Motivational Piker?

• 2011-01-31 16:16:00: Chris commented on Commissioner Lestan

  Not quite sure what the flavour connection between the mechanic and creature type is, mind.

• 2011-01-31 16:07:46: Vitenka commented on Impetus Redirector

  And there's the third part of the whirrrr....

• 2011-01-31 16:07:14: Vitenka commented on Floating Fortress

  Anyway you can stretch the wording to be 'another one' of those creatures?

• 2011-01-31 16:06:37: Vitenka commented on Ergetric Resonator

  Freaking whirrr! This works stupidly well with the +1/+1 counter thing.

• 2011-01-31 16:03:58: Vitenka commented on Apprentice Animator

  Needs the horrible animate artifact wording, unless it's intended to cygnify artifact creatures, which seems a bit good.

• 2011-01-31 16:03:15: Vitenka commented on Bladetrap Recluse

  Oooh, perfect token defence for might be a bit good.

• 2011-01-31 15:59:37: Alex commented on Oscillation Sharpener

  There are 35 common artifacts, and only max 15 of them will already gave tap effects. I think that's fine. It can work on artifact creatures just fine.
