#New USA Elite idea

I'm thinking of an order for USA that would go pretty good with ramp. Although it's quite powerful, only being able to use it once makes up for this.

Here's the idea.

It's an 8k US elite order. Originally I was thinking it's ability would be 'deal damage to all enemy units equal to your remaining kredits'. However, combined with reichbank or anything similar this would be almost an instant boardwipe (while some other nations do have this kind of thing, I still think it wouldn't really fit the ramp kredit slot gain style if it worked with temporary kredits).
Instead, it would be better to use something like 'deal damage to all enemy units equal to each kredit slot you have above 8' (perhaps worded in a simpler way).
This way, you wouldn't get an extra 5 damage from reichbank, which would make it pretty overpowered, but instead only kredit slots would be counted.
This would mean that if you have 12 kredit slots, it would be 4 damage to all enemy units, and 6 for 14, etc.
With a good ramp deck, this could be a boardwipe card, but only with lots of preparation and therefore still fair.

Btw how often do the Devs check the suggestion page? Does writing something here have a good chance of being seen by Devs?

Maybe make it above 7k so you can play it on 8 and it’ll do stuff

i think if it gets voted up a lot with a lot of discourse they might see it, some of the devs are pretty active

#

i think there's already cards that base damage off of your kredit slots, and a boardwipe based off of kredit slots might be a bit overcooked

This is a pretty good idea tbh, but we have to watch out when giving the US board wipe precisely because the US has ramp as its exclusive mechanic

if it 16K than you have 8 damage if you when to 24K and if you did at 12K than it's 12 damage

#

so I think 16K is better

#

or over 16K for each slot it's destroy a unit

#

that's can be 18 if that's was that

#

than it's forced it to be only in ramp decks

#

and if you get an order over 12K from any copy cards you lose a card slot

Make the card in #1063430553744973824 and #fanmade-discussion

#

devs check suggestions afaik, i mean its not much work to read over

#

also also nah i mean there's not gonna need to be much work put in to ramp that high

#

also also yeah new card ideas just go to fanmade

#

Anything more than 10k and it's just not worth it
But maybe 8k is a little too cheap, I reckon 9 is good

#

I'll do y'all one better. 10k, but it causes damage equal to the amount of times you ramped

#

It's a nightmare of word it, but it works as intended

Devs do check suggestions but for legal reasons they don’t use cards that people come up with

Guys can we get an emote that we will only use to tell people in suggestion that it belongs to #1063430553744973824 ?
