New phobies ideas

[faint mountain]

Here, some ideas for new phobies:

1. When a phobie dies, another phobie is released;
2. A shopping machine phobie, with a random special ability every time;
3. A clock phobie that takes levels (+1 every 3 levels of the phobie) from the opponent for a few rounds;
4. A magnifying phobie that increases the attack range of an allied phobie.

Interesting ideas, probably imbalanced but all seem fun. I absolutely love the idea of a phobie that increases your range as long as you are shooting in a straight line through it.

About the second idea: I just think random/RNG in phobies doesnt work at all... The fact that you know what wich phobies or thing does makes it work more strategically. (In example: TF2 Random crits. It looks like a great idea in paper. But it just isn't fair/ballanced in the gameplay...)

The random one could work ok if you could tell what it was going to be while it was on lock or cooldown. [Although it should only show after the turn you summon it, so you can't undo if you don't like it.]
In tf2 guaranteed crits are OK since you can see when they are active.

But I agree it might be better to be variable but influenced by something. Eg it's ability changes depending on what hex it is standing on.

I just cry in the bathroom every time I die to a random critical hit rocket or sticky bomb :D
