Great Unclean One: VK Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 I think spin means to change battle position. It means return from the field to the top of the deck (I think). I just never understood the reasoning.If Konami actualy did use different terms' date=' it would be pretty lulzy. [b']Tribute 1 monster. Return 1 monster on the field to the owner's hand.....Release 1 monster. Bounce 1 monster.[/b] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 Tribute becoming Release was just pointless. That was one of the only things we already had a keyword for; if you're going to invent a new keyword, have it do something new instead of just replacing an old one. Also, "destroy by battle and send to the Graveyard" needs a keyword badly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like slay because it has such a clear "combat" connotation. You just think of knights and dragons. If this card is slayed/slain, special summon 1 DARK monster with 1500 ATK or less from your deck in attack position. Could work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now how about replacing "This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except *requirements*" with "NOMI: *requirements*"?

How about something for "Remove from your Graveyard from play"? Also, how about "Dump" for "Send from your Deck to the Graveyard" and "Tutor" for "Add from your Deck to your Hand"? Since Magic has keywords even for themed effects, how about we add some. For example, how about "Crystallize" for the Crystal Beasts' I-turn-into-a-gem-when-I-die effect?

Guest Chaos Pudding Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard, search your Deck for X and Special Summon it --> When this card is Slain, Recruit X. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 ITT: We encourage bad OCG(well, its just a discussion, who cares XD) Cards in the future: IMO, 'Defeat' seems to make more sence then 'Slay' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 "Recruit" is definitely good. Also, just for fun, "Exile" for Field --> RFP. What should Grave --> RFP's keyword be?I get "Dump"' date=' for specific targets like Foolish Burial. I do not however understand "Tutor".[/quote'] I believe that "Tutor", like "Mill", comes from some Magic card or other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jericho Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 I get "Dump", for specific targets like Foolish Burial. I do not however understand "Tutor". EDIT: Slain just doesn't sound like it distinguises between Grave and RFP, such as if Macro is out. Slain could work instead of destroyed by battle. Grave to RFP=Ascend?

Wait, nvmd. It would get to confusing if it we had a term for 2 different things I guess :/Still, the terms we have so far are more military-esque, when Yugimonz is suposed to be more magical-based. Meh, its still interesting trying to find different term for shortening effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkwolf777 Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 i also disagree, i mean "Destroyed by battle and sends to the Graveyard" is specific. It has to accomplish both things. What if it was "Destroyed by battle and removed from play" or just simply "Destroyed by battle" regardless of where it went? Many cards don't work when they're destroyed by battle and sent elsewhere x.o; Consider them just conditionals as nowadays, all things destroyed by battle don't go to the graveyard (because of other card effects or say you're destroying a token, where it just disappears rather than going to the graveyard.) Terms like Tribute, Destroy, Send all mean different things to different cards due to its wording even if all of them take a card from the field and moves it to the graveyard (by default). Yugioh is a wordy and literal in its lore where even one word can make or break many uses of cards. So far, the only thing i agree to is the term "Piercing".

GenzoTheHarpist Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 I think the term "search" should be used for "add from deck to hand" effects, that's what I see used most often in actual play.
