Prototypes while we wait

Yeah, it's PrimeSonic, and I'm also getting a little impatient waiting for the third tribe. These cards will most likely go through some minor rewrites as they could already quite fit well into the tribe to come. Here's 5 cards from my design.

This really isn't my strong suit but it could be considered my small contribution.

(This might be a double post; if so, sorry.)

I hate to be "that guy" since it looks like most of the comments on here are positive or at least neutral, but these cards leave a lot to be desired in terms of wording and design quality. I won't even touch the idea of balancing their power since that is at least partially opinion. But there are very simple design rules that don't need to be broken without reason. And in terms of wording, there are basic rules that are always followed, and you can very easily find another card that has a similar effect and copy that wording exactly.

Just as an example, there's no reason for the first sentence on Hope not to match Fog word for word. Also, Burning Archer's third ability could match Spitting Hydra just about word for word. It just looks kind of sloppy when the wording could easily fit the normal card template but doesn't.

I actually agree with you kyle, and I'm very glad your giving us constructive criticisms, stuff we can really work with. Fixes will be made as time goes on, for now we are just showing rough drafts, getting ideas for new cards. a finished set is a long way away. so keep looking for these mistakes and such. we can use all the help we can get.
