Ohai
I present to you a new cycle of creatures, the Wizzards. Each wizzard has a passive ability that triggers every time you cast a spell. How cool is that? Let the spellslinging begin!
(All the card examples bellow are unupped. I chose 1/3 for their basestats. They have 1 attack to make sure that they proc shields. Them having 3 defence is mostely random. 4 was to high and 1 was to low. That left me to choose between 2 and 3 so I chose 3 because I want them to be good. Ofcourse these stats are open for debate.)
-
: no idea yet. Maybe something with mutation or quanta scrambeling? - Necromancer: 3
: 1/3: whenever you cast a spell you get a skeleton -
: not really sure what I want here. It's a choice between giving momentum to a random creature you control, giving gravity pull to a random creature your opponent controls or something like BH -
: Not so sure what I want here. Giving a friendly creature +0/+3 whenever you cast a spell is so dull. I much rather would go for the gollem subtheme that earth has. Maybe let it summon gollems when you cast spells or make it buff gollems? i really don't know. - Gigantomancer 3
: 1/3 whenever you cast a spell, a random creature you control gets +1/1 - Inferno Wizzard 3
: 1/3: whenever you cast a spell, Inferno Wizzard deals 1 damage to a random creature the opponent controls - Bublle Mage 3
: 1/3: Whenever you cast a spell, one random creature you controls gets a bublle that protects it from the next target - Light Wizzard (we need a better name for this!) 3
: whenever you cast a spell, you are healed 5hp (this number is totally random and is definately open for debate) - Stormcaller 3
: 1/3: whenever you cast a spell, Stormcaller deals 3 spelldamage to the opponent. - Time wizzard (we need a better name for this!) 3
: whenever you cast a spell, a random creature your opponent controls gets delayed for one turn. - Dark Magician 3
: 1/3: whenever you cast a spell, drain 1 
from your opponent and you gain - Spark Mage 3
: 1/3: whenever you cast a spell, you get a spark
I took 3
as the basic casting cost, however I would love to go to 2
. I think cards like these are begging for cool splashes and the best way to do that is to keep the cost as low as possible.
I really like this mecanic and I think it should not be excluded to creatures. Maybe permanents could have similar mecanics?
- Wizzard's Staf 3 (weapon): 2/2: deals spell damage. Whenever you cast a spell, Wizzard's staff get's +1/+0
So how do you guys feel about this?
PS: I am aware that nova and precognition exist
