@ Sweeny: This may not be the advice you want to hear at this point, but give up.

 

You evidently have a good, lasting friendship with this girl which has taken time to build, and in my opinion, does not deserve to be wasted on a relationship.

 

You risk everything when you enter into a romantic attachment with someone. Now, that's fine if don't know each other that well. But when it's your best friend, you're putting a great friendship on the line.

 

If it doesn't work out, it can destroy everything; and you can lose a friendship that can be irreplaceable.

 

I'm just saying; be cautious. Rash actions might jepodise more than you think.

 

 

@ Chaos:

When this card is Normal Summoned or Set, you can discard any number of cards from your hand to Special Summon an equal number of "Chibi Knight" monsters from your Graveyard. Insert balancing effect here. When a "Chibi Knight" monster, except "Chibi Knight: Zero" is Tribute Summoned, you can Special Summon this card from your Deck or hand. Insert balancing effect here.

 

but isn't that raising the atk?

=/ if i had the time and the inclination' date=' i would explain just as to why that is wrong in objection format.

He's referring to Striker's card I think.

 

@ Striker: It's overpowered and the picture is blurry and overused.

 

This is how its effect works...

Each effect only works if there is a monster with a specific attribute on the field. Each attribute has an effect. So' date=' not every effect would be done at the same time unless all the attributes are on the field as well.

[/quote']

 

Considering a lot of Decks revolve around 1 or 2 Attributes, there might be at least 2 effects active at the same time, and since Dragons are pretty much every type, you yourself could activate them by Summoning monsters.

That's all you can say about my cards Max!!!!!!!!

[Shadow Zero]

so basically you are saying that my card isn't very balanced max? what is still wrong with it? i made it so that to get the first special summon effect you have to discard some cards. but what is so wrong with the second one?

[Nathanael D. Striker]

I think Max is being evil today...

[Shadow Zero]

could be, or it could be that he is just being serious about the card that i had posted. if he is being evil though, then he is subject to my calling him maxie until he stops being evil. :twisted:

@ Striker: It's overpowered and the picture is blurry and overused.

Because they are. It's a common mistake made by card-makers.

 

 

so basically you are saying that my card isn't very balanced max? what is still wrong with it? i made it so that to get the first special summon effect you have to discard some cards. but what is so wrong with the second one?

 

Think about it. You discard 1 card to Special Summon a Level 3/4. Then on your next turn, you can Tribute Summon a Level 5/6 from your hand using the Special Summoned monster.

 

Then when that is Summoned, you can Special Summon "C.K.:Z" from your Deck, meaning in two turns, you've got two Level 8s (both with 2800 ATK) and a Level 5/6.

 

The basic problem is that it allows high-level swarming, which in itself is overpowered.

 

The balancing effects in this case would be ones that lower the ATK/DEF of the Summoned monsters, negates their effects, or prevents them declaring attacks for a turn.

Helping is more than saying what's wrong Max, helping is giving ideas for people to improve on.

[Shadow Zero]

actually, tribute summoning is a normal summon, and using a special summoned monster does not change that fact. it is only when it a C.K. is tribute summoned summoned that C.K.:Z would be able to be special summoned.

and you better not being evil today max, otherwise you shall be subject to me calling you maxie until you stop being evil. :twisted:

Very well. Use an art site like Deviantart to find underused pictures by not using the first ones or one that looks perfect, because chances are someone else has already used it.

 

When in Deviantart and other picture sites, make sure to get the full view of the image to reduce the chance of pixelisation and blurriness.

 

As for the overpowered aspect, your fusion dragon is overpowered because it's effects will activate at the same time, due to many Decks and Archetypes relying on more than one Attribute.

 

Also, since it is only 'on the field', you can Summon monsters to add to the number of active effects, increasing this monster's power to stupid levels.

 

To balance this card, what you need to do is to reduce the number of active effects, reduce the power of the individual effects (since on their own they are powerful enough, together they are overpowered), or have it so that there are six effects, and each Draw Phase, you roll a die and the result determines the effect for that turn.

 

 

@ Chaos:

 

it is only when it a C.K. is tribute summoned that C.K.:Z would be able to be special summoned.

 

But what I said still stands. When "C.K.:Z" is Normal Summoned, you can Special Summon the Tribute fodder for a "C.K." Normal Summon during your next turn, Special Summoning a second "C.K.:Z".

[Nathanael D. Striker]

Hum... thats sounds great, but there are only 5 effects.

[Max Darkness]

Hum... thats sounds great' date=' but there are only 5 effects.

Either add a sixth, or make it so that if you get 6, you roll again.

[Shadow Zero]

max, there are cards in the game that have similar effects, especially a WATER Synchro Monster that i have faced before that has that exact type of effect, so could you please get off my back about it? at least i went and put the card discard thing into the fodder summon. (as you would apparently call it)

now, perhaps you could explain as to the second part where a special summon bringing forth the C.B.:K is horribly op'd? =/ or did you already do that? if so, then could you please elaborate?

[Nathanael D. Striker]

How's this for an effect...

[spoiler=Lore]The Fusion Material Monsters for this card are any 5 different "The Dragon from the" monsters. During your Draw Phase roll a six-sided die. The number you roll determines the effect you can use this turn.

1: Pay 1000 Life Points to destroy up to 3 Spell or Trap Cards your opponent controls.

2: Remove 1 non-FIRE monster your opponent controls from play. During the second End Phase after this effect was activated, Special Summon the removed from play monster.

3: Draw a card during your Standby Phases.

4: Gains 500 ATK for each face-up WATER monster on the field.

5: Attack your opponent directly.

6: Gain 500 lifepoints for each monster you control.

Synchros are overpowered, I'll grant.

 

It allows you to Summon a 2800 ATK monster with very little cost. That seems overpowered. And I didn't say it was horribly overpowered, just that it needed to be given a temporary restriction.

 

 

@ Striker: Better, but I would still reduce the strength of the individual effects:

 

1. Fine as it is.

2. Might want to remove the 'non-FIRE' part.

3. Alright.

4. This is overpowered, since it can give a boost of 2000 ATK. Perhaps reduce to 300 ATK?

5. Very overpowered. If you want to keep it, you should say the monster halves any direct damage it causes. Or perhaps add a cost to attack.

6. Reduce the gain somewhat. Down to 200/300.

[Nathanael D. Striker]

Alright then Max

[Shadow Zero]

max, it's actually harder to do a tribute summon because you need to keep at least one monster around until the next turn. whatever, i'll make one last set of modifications. if you still think that it's op'd after that, then to bad because i am not going to break this card, as it is supposed to help an archetype that likely does not even have more then 100 cards added to it yet.

Effect: When this card is Normal Summoned, you can Special Summon as many "Chibi Knights" as possible from your Graveyard by discarding an equal number of cards from your hand. When a "Chibi Knight" (other then "Chibi Knight: Zero") is Tribute Summoned, you can Special Summon 1 "Chibi Knight: Zero"from your Deck, hand, or Graveyard. If "Chibi Knight: Zero" was Summoned in this way, it cannot attack until your next turn.

[Max Darkness]

@Striker: That looks fine.

 

 

@ Chaos: Just fix your OCG and it'll be good.

The only problem for me is that looks like it would symbolize a Water Dragon, but all in all, I love the card.

Well, Max, if you were anybody else I would have probably punched you in the face right now. But I didnt for 2 reasons

1. This is the internet, I cant punch you over the internet

2. I trust you enough that I know that you wouldnt just say that to screw me over. And your right. I'm going to take your advice and I thank you. It means a lot to me.
