Clearly Abyssian. And the kind of thing i need (with some creature buffing) for my Reliq dreams.

I’m only asking since its seems more like a neutral Gnasher that I’m comparing to rather than an something abyssian.
Also love reliquarian as well.

Call of the Seeker
3 mana Magmar spell
Give ALL minions not nearby another general or minion Grow +1/+1 and Rebirth.
Summary
Combining the “Decimate/Sky Burial”-mechanic from Lyonar with Rebirth and Grow archetypes of Magmar, while affecting the opponent’s minions a well. The name is inspired from Call to Arms, but instead of calling soldiers to protect your general, this spell inspires solitary warriors. I felt this is a fitting effect lorewise for Starhorn the Seeker, who is a wise, powerful loner surely capable of inspiring friend and foe alike.

Abominable Augmentation

Comments
This card is made to achieve several goals:
- Fun. It makes each opponent taste their own poison. Various results dependant on matchup make each game different.
- Slight support for slower Abyss Swarm.
- Another 4 mana option for Arcanyst Decks utilising Illu and maybe Firestarter.
- Any token deck support, mainly Memetown.
I agree that abilities may be not balanced between themselves, and I’d be glad for any suggestions.
Previous, but different design

Smoldering Spectre
Vetruvian Minion
4 mana (3/3)
Rush, Ephemeral (disappears at the end of the owner’s turn)
Dying Wish: Summon nearby your General all minions that disappeared this game. Those minions gain Rush if they don’t have it already and cost 4 or less.
note: includes your opponent’s minions that disappeared during the match and you gain control of them akin to Nether Summoning’s summon effect

What do you mean by “cost 4 or less?” You already summoned them around your general so does mana cost matter?
1 Like
it should allow your opponent to at least answer those summoned with cost 5 or more since they don’t get Rush

Oh, I understand now. “Minions that cost 4 or less gain rush if they don’t have it it already.” Thank you for clarifying.

a little bit cracked given the number of 3 mana minions with excellent statlines(think komodos or erratic raptyrs or chaos elementals. This really can become a four mana makantor, except worse… I think you should further give them one more condition, such as ephemeral, or maybe lower the cost further or limit the number of minions. Besides that, think what could happen if you started dropping razorcrags? this becomes a somewhat conditional 2 card 13 damage combo…

hm, before the Spectre can summon those monsters on your side, your opponent must summon them first on their turn then you need to Wither them afterwards
i think the setup time balances it out

Tree of Life

Grow +1/+1. Whenever any minion or General heals, the Tree of Life grows and converts one space to Primal Flourish, prioritising enemy spaces.

Abyssian is what I was going for. Originally I was going for something else with deathwatch but it ended up being an absurd enabler for lancer or sunriser. This felt more balanced. It’s more about having a minion that you get more value from dead than alive, which is a very Abyssian trait.
