Perfect Précis [Free Entry/Written]

[-Griffin]

A précis is a summary of sorts. Taking all the notable things mentioned, usually in a piece of writing, but drastically reducing the word count.

In Written Cards, when people design support for an archtype, it's often some twenty-plus cards in size.

Konami makes old archtypes playable with only 1/2 balanced TCG exclusives to a set.

Loving concision as I do, this is a contest about making support for something in a small number of cards, but being effective enough to raise their tier while remaining balanced.

 

[spoiler=[b]Rules[/b]]

 

1. This is a [Written] Contest. All cards should be in the style they are known in in the Written Cards section.

 

2. There will be any number of rounds, depending on the number of contestants. 1-2 contestants eliminated each round, depending on numbers.

 

3. Each round will end when all cards are submitted or three days after the starting date - whichever is first. This should be plenty of time for Written Cards. If you have problems with a time frame, tell me.

 

4. In each round, you will be presented with a Deck type and a card limit. You must make that Deck type as playable as possible using no more cards than the card limit.

 

5. If a card would be banned, it isn't going to make them anymore playable, so balance is important.

 

6. Common sense

No-one?

[JG.]

I'd like to be a judge if you'll have me.

[-Griffin]

Sure, would rather a contestant though.

[JG.]

Depends. Is it only 1 card we make per round? If so, then I will be a contestant instead.

[-Griffin]

1-3 Written cards.

[JG.]

Eh, I'll be a contestant then.

[-Griffin]

Finally. Accepted.
