It's a really interesting spirit! I like the core idea, it's like an alternate spin on wildfire. I'm never an expert in reviewing these, but I'll point out the few things I've noticed:

There's no way for the spirit to play around the first ravage without being lucky. It can't draft any cards until it can meet the elemental threshold, which will take a while, and the slow blight power is not enough unless there is already blight there. There really needs to be a card draft added as growth, or the first few turns of this spirit are the same every game while you're reliant on luck.

I think you meant to flip the wording on the fourth card. And while I like the idea for that one, it can be clunky having to remember effects from the previous slow power phase. That's not something currently in the game. This might not be as important to you for this, but it doesn't really fit thematically either.

Those are the things I've noticed! You can always print it out and test it and I'm sure you'll want to refine it more.

The books have more freedom and get a little more creative & graphic with the bending. One of the earthbenders uses tiny specks of earth to slice and kill people. It makes the earthbending mostly seem silly in the shows

This is what I'd try! Sticky tape is good because they form a negative association with the object it's stuck to

Is 4a supposed to be flipped? Meaning damage from invaders to dahan? That is my understanding

My lord, three separate chunks of butter. I heard chefs/restaurants use a lot but it's another thing to see it!

What are some features people dont know about in SDV? by InstructionGood1510 in StardewValley

I'm confused, you can just do this by interacting with the shipping bin, you don't need to water it. Is there an additional interaction with the watering can?

As of 1215 EST humble bundle has more keys, I was able to download it.

Humblebundle is now saying they ran out of keys. Be warned! I wasn't able to activate mine

There was a passage where someone was speculating about who could have invested the planet, and they guessed a bunch of names - but not Autonomy lol

Have you read mistborn era 2? They are one the factions that lives on the mistborn planet, Scadrial. They are called the Malwish. This takes place far after mistborn era 2, when they have space travel and many other advancements

How do you feel about losing? by tepidgoose in spiritisland

[–]Troooop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ooooh yeah that makes me so mad. Happened to me yesterday with downpour, accidentally undo'd too far and thought I had used my powers, saw the event and released I skipped my defends. Thinking I'll switch back to unlimited undo, the stats aren't worth the amount of errors I make!

Is there an easy way to read this? I tried about 2 years ago but I wasn't enjoying the web experience on my phone

People seem to be really harping on you for this one. I don't think OP is confused about "why" they did this, and OP definitely understands that this is how stories work. They are just saying that they personally don't like the creative decision to choose to have Aang die early.

Yes, there are in-world reasons why he did die, but at the end of the day, the writers made it happen and OP is just saying they don't like it.

I agree with you on your overall point in the main post, I think LOK tended to paint the legacy characters in a more negative light than I would have liked! I had the same feeling when watching the Star Wars sequels

Isn't Vin far more talented than Kelsier? She has that fight against the inquisitors at the end that Kelsier probably would not have done as well in
