Spoiler (hover to show)

There is a lot going on here: this would be a "Discard-Class" card (Like a territory-class but use in discard pile).

I agree, the LS is way too powerful. Perhaps "The first enhancement of that brigade each battle", but even that's pushing it.

It's a very interesting idea, though. I like the idea of an EC becoming a soul after it's defeated.

Very interesting, but too strong.  Tossing all enhancements of a brigade your opponent uses and you don't use effectively means they fight by the numbers on offense or defense (your choice) and you don't, plus your stuff is CBN.

How are your Enhancements CBN?

Originally, I thought about, "Toss all enhancements that say, 'Cannot be Negated.'" This is probably the better option. I thought the LS ability should be a little better than that because it's "harder" to get in the Land of Bondage than an average Lost Soul.

I had toyed with, "Choose a brigade color from one of your target single-brigade cards. Toss all enhancements of the same color."

Your stuff would be effectively CBN because their negates would be tossed. Some decks might still have a couple, like Gamaliel's Speech and Woes, but they can't play any of their interrupt or negate enhancements.

So.... Coliseum? 

Oh, it's CBN due to toss. I was afraid I had brought miscommunication somewhere.

Yeah, like Colisum. I was thinking about the idea of an Evil Character who would then be rescued. They would offer more "resistance" due to their past experiences and misunderstanding about salvation.

Another idea sprang up this weekened with the LS special Ability:

"When 'Battle' enters play, each player chooses a brigade. Toss all enhancements from named Brigades. Cannot be Interrupted."

Would this be more fair to the original ability?

That ability is certainly more balanced, but it also really limits what kind of decks you can play this in. I know i wouldn't be playing it if my deck wasn't already built around toss.
