2/2 Crimson Evil Enhancement
"Discard two humans banded together who are of the same gender. Cannot be interrupted."
"and in the same way also the men abandoned the natural function of the woman and burned in their desire towards one another, men with men commiting indecent acts and receiving in their own persons the due penalty of their error." Romans 1:27

2/2 Orange Evil Enhancement

I don't think it should be orange. Maybe brown or black?
-
Crimson since the men were doing something like a heretic would do maybe. It's a really cool card idea though.

Ah yes, crimson. I was thinking this was from Genesis :P

It has to be at least CBI, or it won't get played in todays meta. If it is, then it'll be nice and powerful, but not OP.
-
I would limit it to 'If used by a Human' don't want any of those demons using it.. *cough cough* Red Dragon *cough cough*
Also, change the wording to: "Discard 2 Male Humans in Battle. Cannot be Interrupted." that sounds much simpler.
-

But it's a temptation. Why does it matter if the source of that temptation is evil crimson humans or demons?
-
I don't see why we need the limitation. If CGD actually did publish something like this, it'd probably be limited to a theme, but that's just them.
-
I'm just saying, it's better like that, and the verse does mention only Human men so why not have the limitation? And like SomeKittens just said, if it's ever printed, it would have it. And it's kinda strong to not have a limit on it, especially w/ lots of cards that allow other brigades to play an Enhancement like this.
-
As there are no longer any crimson demons, I think it would be silly to say "If used by a human" since really this is a new era of Redemption.
-
Then whats Cubus and Red Dragon?

I'd like to point out that's not what I said. I said that CGD would probably put a theme limiter on it (notice that "human" is not a theme). There's only a handful of non-human Crimson characters, so I don't think that it would change much.
-

old cards
-
I'm saying putting it in a Setup that would be useful (more than likely Heretics).
Also Red Dragon is still quite viable, Heretics can use him.
-
Why would restricting the card further be useful?
-
Because there is no card like this that doesn't have a major restriction.
-
What about Authority of Christ Promo?
-
That is the 1 only exception, but there are no EE's that are like this.
I would personally argue that AoCP is extremely OP.
-
Wrath of Satan?
-
This isn't passive aggressive or anything. ;)
I like it overall. I agree with the change to crimson over orange, and I also agree with people thinking that it should have a CB-something so as not to be UP. I don't know that it's really necessary to limit it to a theme, though, because Heretics and Babylonians (the current crimson themes) could both make good use of it (especially against popular offenses like Isaiah/Prophets, Genesis, Sam, Disciples, etc.)
-
I'd say it fits nicely in a crimson theme:

Just a little, maybe. ::)

Political Opinions, Go!

Wrath of Satan?
WoS can be Negated.

Baalam's Disobedience?

Sorry, just now coming back to this. I'm surprised that some would think such a situational card would be so powerful. It's only a "battle winner" if you have initiative against exactly two humans of the same gender. So its only going to be useful against banding chains, and in those cases it only takes 2 links out of the chain. I think such a card would be needed now as the last few sets have encouraged banding heroes (TGT, Disciples, Samuel/Royalty, etc.). And it doesn't remove them from the game, so they are easily healed or returned with cards like Brass Serpent promo, COF, etc.
Anyway, thank you all for the input.
-
I still like the concept.
-
think that could really use this card.
