ADVANCED CARD RATING - by KrakenNLD[align=center]CARD STATS

Level: Not needed

Effect: "This card may only be activated during your Main Phase when you have 3000 Life Points or less. Skip your Battle Phase, Main Phase 2 and next Main Phase. Gain 5000 Life points during your opponents' next Draw Phase"[/align][align=center]Intro:

Actually, I decided to make this little new version of rating when I was editting my old one... now it pretty much is improved don't you think? Anyway, what this card does is taking a high risk for a reasonable effect afterwards. Definitely in the world of the spell cards which are not suggested to use that much.

 

Art: 04/10

Hmmm, if I may be so annoying to ask? What good is a drink from Hawaii has everything to do with the duel. I do realise its making the atmosphere that you need some rest, but when you are truly in a pinch. You don't wanna rest like that. So... the thing that I don't like is the theme of the card which doesn't set off in a world where magic rules. Hence, I don't find the drink a good picture for a YGO card.

 

OCG: 06/10

Got some issues, but don't worry... almost everyone got them :). The OCG is not that good but at least everyone understands what is going on. So it's not a failure afterall, however, this may be an advice (also to myself)... start searching some cards which are similair to this card's effect. And simply copy and paste from them.

 

Balance: 04/10

Although the effect that you can only use it if you have 3000 LP or less is the attractive part. What I am scared off however, is that this is one of those typical kind of cards everyone puts in their deck just to match other players (there hasn't gone a day by when I dont see a "Pot of Greed" in anybody his deck... thank goodness it's forbidden now). This card will be the same leageau... everyone must have it in their deck, or they will be sweeped almost too fast. That's why also Balance gets a low score

 

Hardness: 06/10

Ah, one of the new sub-parts I will be rating is how hard a card is to use. This includes that a card is not to difficult to summon/activate so that nobody uses it. Like I said in "Balance" part... this is probably one of those cards everyone needs to put in their deck just to make a chance against somebody else. Which doesn't do it very good. Some cards don't revolt in attacking another player for instance. For those decks, this card is litterally perfect to use. 3000 LP is still a lot.

 

Idea: 09/10

Second one of my newest area's I can rate from now on is "Idea". In this little section, the thing is that I try to give a number based on the idea of the card. In here uniqueness and time consuming are key-elements. And in here you score pretty high. As dumb as it may sound, I kinda much like the idea that there is a magic card which can stop key-times in your turn for the exchange of life points (and not less also). I never seen it also in another card, so it's pretty unique.

 

Total: 05/10

All in all, I give this card a 5. Don't worry that much, it's not that I truly hate that card (otherwise I would give a 2/3/4... a 5 is good but still not balanced enough). The thing is that the card is pretty overpowered... even if you give away key-moments in your turn... the life-point gaining is too immense. "Sword of Revealing Light" for instance can still keep your life points safe from harm when using this card... as an example.[/align][align=center]Change Suggestions:

  • *art* Another Name/Picture
    Somehow, I don't find a drink from Hawaii suiting for a game which goes in a magic realm. I would change the theme of the card (example is having a delayed angel...)
     
  • *ocg* Change card description a bit.
    No offense, but if there are any... search for cards with a similair effect and then copy and paste. It will make your card almost twice as proffesional.
     
  • *hardness* Minimum Required Life Points
    3000 is too much, I would say 1000 or something like that would be more suiting... and more of a risk, but also well more worth it.
     
  • *balance* Skipped Parts
    I would actually make it a bit more riskier... for instance you can only draw a card and then the rest of your turn is skipped. I wouldn't suggest it together with the one before this one...

[/align][align=center]Final Word:

Well, this was it. The last part of my new type of rating... I hope everyone enjoyed reading this way and I certainly hope to see more cards from you. Don't worry about this little low rating, its just TOO good now... but you are definitely out there :).

[/align][align=center]Extra: *never remove or edit this part from your post*

This type of rating has been created by KrakenNLD. Everybody is welcome to use the exact same style of rating only if you have the pride to still put this in your post.[/align]
