--Optional--

-------------

Lab Golem / Micro Lab Golem
Cost: 4 (fused) / 2 (fuse)
Stats (if creature or weapon): 2|5 / 1|3
Ability(ies):
  • unupgraded: "Fuse: Pay cost from 1 element.
    Research: Adds 2 spell cards from the fused element to your hand on play."
  • upgraded: "Fuse: Pay cost from 1 element.
    Research: Adds 2 spell cards from the fused element to your hand on play."

Viva-la spell slinger!
Just a small creature that helps you get more spells.
The fused cost should help keep it from being too easily abused in rainbow decks.

The mechanic is meant to synnergy with spells like fractal and reinforce.
Not sure if mitosis should be allowed to synnergy as well or not. Input on that is welcome.

Is this will be a golem?

if so, it's seems to be very potent in that deck.

But comparing to the other card generating cards, it's strong, clearly in upped. In SoSep, you can't really know how useful it will be, Alchemist need a lot of type of quanta to be useful, but this is mostly reliable (2 card out of 6-10) and in some element you nearly never can get useless card, especially in  :aether, where you can get Unsummon, Twin Universe, Silence, or Fractal. So, in most case (~67%), it's lets you to play an another Lab golem. Optionally it could become a 4|3 psionic immortal from one card (Okay, ~4.1% is not that high).

So I find Mitosis synergy secondary (like, it can be killed before it's starts Mito-ing itself), I find more problematic the Aether version.

Hmm... maybe drop it to 1 spell card per play then?

On the upped it could be fine.

I would be fun if the upped would have +1 HP, to exactly look like 2 Micro golem fused, but it'll more balanced IMO, if both of it would get +1 attack and unupped would get +1 cost.

But is this a golem? :D

Yes, this is supposed to be a golem. I figured it would be nice to have a type other golem.
I'll change the text and stats this afternoon.
