It's too devastating for the other player to lose 3 cards and you to gain 3 good ones.

IMO it should only replace your cards with Benediction and maybe replace matching cards in opponent's hand with common cards not from his deck, not purified ashes.

Otherwise it's like activating the Holy keyword three times at once.

It looks like Flare attack but flare replaces cards in both hands with useless cards, so it's balanced.

But you have to thing about some facts:
Benediction is a common holy card, so you can loose rare or uncommon holy cards thought this Card.
Also Benediction can't be removed with dark flame. And as last you need enough holy cards fot this in your Hand which are not Benediction, else only 1 or 2 cards will be removed.
Anyway, your quite right. I will increase its cost and think about a change of the effeckt.

yeah but both players might lose rare or uncommon cards but still you have a great advantage against your opponent. Especially since it's all non-Holy cards and not just Undead cards you replace. And it's durable, so you can just keep replacing cards until he's got nothing else to play

I changed the Type of the gained Card to Retribution and i add to the enemy 3 stock for every dropped card.

And now i need a way to shorter the text O.o
Prbably i should change the retribution to benediction because of the stock gain for the enemy

I'm trying to work out a shortening of the text, but I'm not getting anywhere. The effect is simply difficult to describe in few words.

I wanted to point out that it should be spelled "Sapphire" with two p's. The same misspelling appears on Gem Mine.

Oh thx, i changed it ^^.

Just a little twit

"
If not new:
Replace up to 3 Holy Cards, not "Retribution" with "Retribution".
Enemy Stock: +3*#Replaced Cards
Replace matching non-Holy Cards of the replaced Cards in the Enemy's hand with "Purified Ashes".

But if i would write:
Stock:+#Replaced Cards , this would also involve the purified Ashes, which means that the enemy gains the double amount of recource.

As this card is now I only see it clog both players hand with useless cards, and give your enemy stock for it.
FilipeSilva on 13:39, 6. Jan, 2010
It's powerfull against Undead deck but I wouldn't say that I would use it
Lord Ornlu on 16:58, 6. Jan, 2010
You could write it as "Replace up to 3 random Holy non-Retribution cards in your hand with Retribution. Replace 3 random non-Holy hands in enemy's hand with Purified Ashes. Opponent's stock +# of Purified Ashes in hand"
Progressor on 17:01, 6. Jan, 2010
Then the opponent would get more if this card was played before and he already had some on hand.

"As this card is now I only see it clog both players hand with useless cards, and give your enemy stock for it."
"It's powerfull against Undead deck but I wouldn't say that I would use it"

Even then, its not powerfull,b ecause after the second play, the retribution cards will be more a pain than the purified ashes. Because of this i changed it with Benediction again

You could write it as "Replace up to 3 random Holy non-Retribution cards in your hand with Retribution. Replace 3 random non-Holy hands in enemy's hand with Purified Ashes. Opponent's stock +# of Purified Ashes in hand"

Nice idea qith the stockgain, depending on the number of the purified ashes, i will add this

I would advise to reduce the card text. You don't actually believe we can accept such a texty card?
Lord_Earthfire on 20:25, 6. Jan, 2010
No, i don't believe this, bu i think i can remove some effeckts which could seem quite unnecessary.
