-Griffin Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Who needs the normal bits that people play the game in? To hell with the Draw Phase, we'll use pure Draw Power.

To-Chi Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Oo... *Clap clap clap* I applaude these unusual cards. Er, at least I'VE never seen a "skip your Main Phase" in a card. Though I think you may need to specify which Main Phase, no? And some of the cards' effects are hard to follow, but a reread or two clears that up, usually. There's also a couple of grammatical errors, but other than that everything fits pretty soundly. And I don't understand White Wing of the West's "if you do not control 'cardname'" thing... Is that "cardname" somem new-fangled OCG or something? Mm... 85/100. Good, but not great. P.S.: I like it more when there's less cards; It's easier to not be intimidated/dulled by alot of text. :P So, kudos on that, too. Link to comment
-Griffin Posted October 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 'your Main Phase' is both of them, or that's how I read it.Fixing White Wing now, 'cardname' was there before I could decide on what to call him xD So you only Summon 1. Thanks for the review, which ones could use clearer wording? Link to comment
To-Chi Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Mm, the Main Phase thing... Oh! It makes sense now. I personally (not to sound snobby) would have put Main Phases, but just Phase may be right, I dunno'... Oh, and the part that confused me was Sandstorm Fighter's "During your Draw Phase, before you draw, place this card on top of your Deck. During your Standby Phase, destroy 1 card your opponent controls." If you return it to the top of your Deck, then, effectively Draw it, its Standby Phase effect would be dependent on another card Special Summoning it at the beginning of your Standby Phase.

Bringerofcake Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 Did somebody say Reckless? Seriously, these cards are extremely interesting. You basically use End Phase as Draw Phase and Standby as Main 1. What I wouldn't mind seeing is Battle Phase manipulation, i.e. cards that affect/skip the BP and stuff there. Overall, rather unique.

-Griffin Posted October 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 I'm going to go through them and change it to Main Phases, I agree that it sounds better.Sandstorm Fighter's second effect is only supposed to work if you skip your Draw Phase. Reckless was actually the inspiration for this set, I thought about how multiples stacked for a great combo and was wondering how they'd work here. I planned not to change the Battle Phase, because it would mean that I needed to add some really strange text about attacking outside it that I didn't feel comfortable with, so I thought that phase could keep the same, although I see where you're coming from. Everlasting, which ones are OP'd to you?Or does anyone else have other comments? Link to comment
-Griffin Posted October 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Does anyone have some balance fixing or suggestions for a new card or two? Link to comment
Hydra of Ages Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 I planned not to change the Battle Phase' date=' because it would mean that I needed to add some really strange text about attacking outside it that I didn't feel comfortable with, so I thought that phase could keep the same, although I see where you're coming from.[/quote'] Actually, I think all you'd need for that is "This card may declare an attack once during your [Whatever] Phase (apply Damage Calculation as normal). This card cannot declare an attack during your Battle Phase." Link to comment
-Griffin Posted October 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Still, I just want to keep that one the same. If you don't mind. Link to comment
Hydra of Ages Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 *Shrugs* I don't even know which card you're talking about. I just thought the effect sounded kinda cool and writ the OCG that would fit. Link to comment
-Griffin Posted October 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 By 'that one' - I meant the Battle Phase. Link to comment
