-Recast - casts the spell a second time (effectively doing double damage) ^ Notice how the second time “Fracture” is cast, it shoots twice

-Redeck - returns the spell to the bottom of the deck ^ The spell can be used over and over again since it is triggering Earthbound every time

Restore Mana - restores mana Frost - applies the frost effect (applies frost on target, deal 10dmg for each frost on target)  Explode - hit surrounding tiles More spell effects to come later!

Above^ are the spell effects that can get triggered by Earthbound:

Earthbound - If the last spell cast was also “Earthbound,” trigger an effect.

This one was inspired by the Lifebound “Unite” mechanic from the board game Ascension. Example.

If the player casts an Earthbound spell and the previously cast spell was also an Earthbound spell, a predefined bonus effect would trigger. This means that if an Earthbound spell is the first spell you cast, obviously you would not be able to trigger it’s effect. However, if your deck is filled with Earthbound cards, and you time them correctly, you can activate a lot of their bonus effects. A little visual effect pops up if you manage to trigger Earthbound.

-Example of an Earthbound card that restores 2 mana when triggered^

Another mechanic I’m working on:

Assassinate - If this spell kills an enemy, do an effect.

This can trigger any of the effects above. The recast effect can lead to a fun loop if the spell kills an enemy, then kills another enemy on the recast, then another. I will try to show examples of this and other mechanics in future posts.
