More thematic than Aether Adept version

Simon O'Keeffe · 2012-05-26 16:17:03

I really like the name.

Kieran Symington · 2012-05-28 13:02:02

Unite 2 can actually be hard to get, and this guy is miserable without it.

Simon O'Keeffe · 2012-06-01 09:15:34

Why not change the ability based on unite? Make him a 2/2 for 4, make the normal ability Aether Adept, then get the Dismisser ability for Unite 2? Then he's never useless and the unite ability is an awesome bonus.

Kieran Symington · 2012-06-01 09:27:41

Like it Kieran! I think I have to word it like this though

Simon O'Keeffe · 2012-06-01 10:48:59

Woah, this guy just got very strong! Mist Raven eat your heart out? Probably flying and one less power is better than the Unite dismisser but this guy is definitely good now.

Thomas Baker · 2012-06-01 11:04:27

oops forgot about the P/T! Probably fairer here, since he is a common.

Simon O'Keeffe · 2012-06-01 11:20:17

With unite gone, I've reworked this guy. Now has some nice symmetry. If cast from hand he bounces to hand, if cast from top of library he bounces to top of library.

Simon O'Keeffe · 2012-06-02 09:42:01

Love it

Kieran Symington · 2012-06-02 10:04:22

Seemed pretty good without being busted.

Thomas Baker · 2012-06-03 20:28:05

Had another good run last night.

Thomas Baker · 2012-06-06 08:23:31

Shouldn't this be a wizard if there's a wizard deck?

Paul Hodgson · 2012-06-08 15:30:34

Jellyfish Wizard would be sweet...

Kieran Symington · 2012-06-08 15:43:26

Making him a Wizard makes him awfully close to Aether Adept. But it would be nice.

Thomas Baker · 2012-06-08 15:56:33

done!

Paul Hodgson · 2012-06-08 15:56:43

the art should just be a jellyfish with a pointy hat on

Paul Hodgson · 2012-06-08 15:57:41

No! No jellyfish wizards, only pure Cnidaria! This is clearly an homage to Man O War

Simon O'Keeffe · 2012-06-08 16:46:02

I think we have to respect the designer's wishes on this one...

Kieran Symington · 2012-06-08 17:31:18

Thought it was an homage to Veldaken Dismisser :P

Paul Hodgson · 2012-06-09 08:58:44

This is still amazing.

Kieran Symington · 2012-06-14 08:43:26

Never sad to see this, yet he's not as good as Mist Raven or even Aether Adept, really. Definite inclusion.

Thomas Baker · 2012-06-14 09:56:17

still think this should be a Jellyfish Wizard
