Denied New Plant Move

[NickC1211]

Sprout:
With sprout bound tap shift on a grass dirt block and grass will appear. then click into any direction to send a line of grass blocks at your opponent (looks kinda like EarthLine). You can shoot about 3 before the cooldown kicks in, and each one does half a heart. This one goes into cooldown after one attack.

Next if you hold shift for then click you will send off a bigger more powerful grass line, if it hits a target that entity will be given slowness.

Lastly if you hold shift then release shift you send off grass in all direction ensnaring those around you temporarily.

Ensnaring a person would look like tall grass and they would not be able to move for about 2 seconds. This would have a large cooldown.

May you explain why that exactly deals damage?

I like those two.

Next if you tap shift on a leaf then click in a direction, a whip will shoot off. You can click to control it like watermanipulation.

And what application does that provide?

Next if you hold shift on a leaf then click you will be surrounded by a protective dome of leaves for about 5 seconds.

How is it any way useful than IceBullet? Seems like this is an excuse for a weaker version.

Ok the grass line is just a basic plant attack
And the leaf thing is basically just plant whip
And I don't love the last one but I thought the move needed some sort of defensive quality.

But thanks a lot for your honest opinion i want this move to be useful

Should I just make grass line it's own move?

That wasn't the question. I asked with initial"why". I don't think getting contact with a grass (or wine) would actually harm a person.

Well I'm assuming that it's sharp because in the same way a waterbenders can make water hurt they can make plants hurt.

Can someone change the title to grass line

 

[MeskenasBoii]

Click "thread tools", that is next to "unwatch thread". You'll get a drop down menu, so click "edit title".

Imagine it like a bunch of paper cuts. A waterbender could pressurize the water inside the blades of grass, making them "hard" and then the thin blades of grass can just slice a bit of your clothes and skin without breaking. That's how I picture it at least.

Yes yes thank you for putting it into words

I don't mean to burst your bubble, but sadly this is not even remotely feasible. Do you know how much water is in a single blade of grass? Not a lot. 85% of less than a gram of weight. Water has a density of approximately 1g/ml meaning if you have less than a gram of grass, of which 85 percent is water. You will have anywhere from .766->.0085 ml of water, depending on the mass of the original grass. Knowing this I highly doubt it is feasible to cause damage with a blade of grass. (Rather than actually bending the water out, which any smart waterbender from the show would do as water is easier to control than a blade of grass)

Also we don't see waterbenders growing grass from the ground using waterbending, we only see them manipulate existing forms of it and extracting water from it.

Denied.
