Complete "Speed" discussion

[Mysty]

I didn't quite know where to place this, since some of the cards are from video games, but anyway, here are the speed cards, including the ones from WC2009. I also included their texts since some are different in the game.

 

[spoiler=Speed Worlds]

Speed World

Field Spell

When you activate a Spell Card, other than a "Speed Spell", you take 2000 damage. During each player's Standby Phase, place 1 Speed Counter on this card (max 12). When you take damage, remove Speed Counters from this card for each multiple of 1000 damage taken.

NOTE: In the video game, it prohibited non-"Speed Spell" Spell cards altogether.

 

Speed World 2

Field Spell

When you activate a Spell Card, other than a "Speed Spell", you take 2000 damage. During each player's Standby Phase, place 1 Speed Counter on this card (max 12). By removing a number of Speed Counters from this card, activate one of the following:

● 4: Inflict 800 damage to your opponent for each "Speed Spell" card in your hand.

● 7: Draw 1 card.

● 10: Destroy 1 card on the field.

NOTE: I bet in the video game that uses this, i bet it will have similar errata to Speed World.

 

 

[spoiler=the Speed Spells]

Note that I'm not putting "Speed spell - " at the beginning of each name to save space. Also, all Speed Spells are either Normal or Quick-Play Spells.

Anime: The following effects are activated when your Speed Counters exceed those of your opponent:

● Opponent's turn: You can negate a number of attacks up to the difference in Speed Counters.

If I made any errors on any of the following, please tell me and I will edit it. Anyway, discuss what the ban list would look like for Turbo Duels, whether adding a cost of removing all 12 of your Speed Counters makes the really powerful banned cards balanced, if the Speed Counter requirements and costs of the cards make them all able to be put to 3 on a good list, whether you like the anime or the WC2009 effect better, etc.

[Mysty]

BUMP.

The two Speed World cards would slow the game down dramatically. If Turbo Duels were real, they would probably be very interesting, as it would add quite a bit more strategy to the game. Although some decks would be completely shut down, other decks could get a chance to rise against Gladiator Beast and Lightsworn.

Making those Speed-altered Spell cards would be cool too, especially on Speed World 2. On Speed World, it would be very tough to play one of the banned cards, but on Speed World 2 it would be a bit easier since your opponent would have fewer options of removing your Speed Counters. Does having to remove 10 or 12 Counters still make the broken cards worth using? Are they still banworthy even in a Turbo Duel?

How different would the banlist be for Turbo Duels? Would it be different for each Speed World? What would the meta be like? I think it would be a Gladiator Beast meta.

[RyanAtlus]

I like the concept, and it's be cool if they were in the next generation of boosters. (after SDOD)
