I have a set with a small wall subtheme. Is this card just too much?
Holy Citadel - 5WWW
Enchantment
At the end of each opponent's turn, if you took no damage this turn, gain X life, where X is the combined total toughness of walls you control.
Pay 100 life: Win the game.
The idea is that you are trying to build a city to stave off attackers, and it rewards you for successfully rebuffing attacks. I want it to be a bomb that puts your opponent on a peaceful clock.
Holy Citadel 3ww
Creature
Defender, eot you gain life equal to your defenders combined toughness.
At boyt, if your life total is 60or more, you win
4/7
As a casual player, if anybody played these cards against me, I would punch them in the face. Defenders and lifegain do NOT make games fun when combined. Wall of Reverence did it right by encouraging you to play creatures with power (non-walls) to take advantage of the lifegain, making it feel more interactive and answerable. If you really want to build a Holy Citadel, I'd do it with counters rather than life. Something like Luminarch Ascension.
I would like this card if you changed it to all creatures and if the cost was way lower. And 100 life? I don't know... I'm a hardcore white player and I mainly win by trying to gain a lot of life and than pulling out Felidar Sovereign.
Also, conceptually, I'd say building a giant wall isn't the greatest way to have a peaceful win condition. Walls don't represent peace in general, they represent conflict. Why are walls built? To seperate things. Not very peaceful huh?
Instead, make it something sorta like a global pacify? Something that prevents combat or Combat based damage.
