Dwarven King Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 Accepted DK. How did you know my nickname was DK?!?! D: Lol, and thanks for the acceptance/welcome! :D OT: I'm slightly confused. Are you guys discussing real cards, cards you created, or ways you would change real cards? I've never seen an Archfiend card before, so I'm kinda lost. xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you already of some of your fan-fic duel posted? If so, could you link me? And those are some nice cards! O: I asked because "idiots" on YCM are judging me by a single post.

Max Darkness Posted April 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Do you already of some of your fan-fic duel posted? If so, could you link me? And those are some nice cards! O: Different duel; same characters. Jack from the manga, and Kieran from WC09. [spoiler=A New Demon]Previously: After facing ‘Demon King Dragon Beelze’, Jack seeks out the only duellist who had defeated him in recent years; the enigmatic ‘Signer’ Kieran. Jack waited in the gloom, the faint lights of Satellite’s factories barely illuminating the street. He silently recollected his battle against ‘Demon King Dragon Beelze’. Despite the strength of his Deck, he felt powerless against the card of darkness. He cursed under his breath as he saw the light of another duel runner cut through the night behind him. Knowing this man had the abilities to force a player’s evolution was one thing. Admitting it was another. The other engine became quiet as the duellist drew alongside. “King. What an honour.” The sarcasm was clear in his voice. Jack grunted in response. A sly smile crossed the masked duellist’s face. “However, am I jumping the gun when I guess that this duel is not simply a rematch? Your assistant seemed unsure when she approached me. But regardless, I am eager to discover the reason you summoned me.”“’Demon King Dragon Beelze’.”“Ah. One of the Skeleton Knight’s cards of darkness. I saw that you squared up against it. Your performance was…interesting.”“Interesting?” Jack began to grow impatient at his opponent’s attitude.“As soon as that dragon was summoned, you reverted to your old ways. Trying to defeat the immortal with your duel style as it is will be a vain effort. So let me guess. You want me to improve you? You see me as the only serious challenge in this city? Well, I’ll see what I can do.” With that, his duel runner’s engine spiked and he moved off, Jack in close pursuit. Passing a junction, the pair accelerated and dived for the next corner, Jack passing Kieran on the outside. “Duel!” Turn 1 “I’ll take the first move!” Declared Jack. “I activate the Spell ‘Instantaneous Arrival’! By discarding a card from my hand, I can Special Summon a Level 4 or lower monster from my hand. I choose ‘Dust King Ash’. Then, I Normal Summon ‘Magic King Moon Star’!” The dark star that shines at the zenith of the heavens! Descend to Earth and make judgement upon the living! Synchro Summon! Appear, Dark Highlander! Jack’s signature monster rose from a dark cloud, its gigantic scythe glowing in the lunar light. “Then, I activate the Equip Spell ‘Ziggurat Spear’!” In ‘Dark Highlander’s’ left hand, a colossal weapon materialised, pointing directly at Kieran. “’Ziggurat Spear’s’ effect; once per turn, in exchange for not battling, I can inflict 500 damage to my opponent’s Life Points! Erubus Burst!” The blade of the spear split, revealing a barrel which charged and launched a sphere of violet energy. Jack’s powerful Feel transferred the blast to Kieran, who was forced to evade the strike. (Kieran LP: 4000 -> 3500) “I end my turn.” “Well, it looks like you’ve improved since our last encounter, but you still rely on ‘Dark Highlander’ too much. I draw.” Kieran looked at his hand, and sneered. “I set one card face down, and then activate ‘Nightmare Steelcage’. With this, no monsters can attack for two turns.”“Already hiding from my attacks?” Jack asked, mockingly.“Your arrogance has yet to fade. Perhaps that can be banished by this duel. I end my turn.” Turn 3 “I draw.” Jack laughed. “This reminds me of a Satellite I once duelled. He cowered behind effects like this. It didn’t help. And this Deck always punishes those who attempt to hide. I Normal Summon ‘Flame Crime the Crimson King’, whose effect activates! When it is Summoned, you take 400 damage for every FIRE monster I control! Flame Punishment!” Kieran gasped as the effect hit home. (Kieran LP: 3500 -> 3100) “Then, since I can’t attack, I’ll use the effect of ‘Ziggurat Spear’ again!” Once again, a violet energy blast careered towards Kieran. (Kieran LP: 3100 -> 2600) “I’ll set one card face down, and end my turn.” “All relatively predictable. I’ll wait to see how well you do when something unexpected happens.” Kieran drew. “I set two cards face down and end my turn.” Turn 5 “I thought this duel was going to challenge me. All you’ve done is guard yourself. And not very well.”“Good things come to those who wait Jack.”“Hmph. I don’t have time for things like that!” Jack drew. “I use the effect of ‘Ziggurat Spear’ to inflict 500 damage to you!” (Kieran LP: 2600 -> 2100) “I then set one card face down and end. Perhaps during this turn you can actually challenge me!” “My turn!” Kieran looked at the drawn card. “Oh I think I will Jack. I think I will. I activate ‘Salvation’! With this, I reveal the top two cards of my Deck. If either is a Level 4 or lower monster, I can add it to my hand. The other goes to the Graveyard. The two cards are ‘Gladiator Beast Murmillo’ and ‘Gladiator Beast Bestiari’. I add ‘Murmillo’ to my hand and send ‘Bestiari’ to the Graveyard. In addition, ‘Salvation’ forbids me from activating the effects of either card involved. But that doesn’t matter.” “I Normal Summon ‘Gladiator Beast Murmillo’. Then, because I control a ‘Gladiator Beast’ monster, I can Special Summon ‘Test Tiger’ from my hand! Next, I activate ‘Test Tiger’s’ effect; by tributing it, I can return a ‘Gladiator Beast’ monster I control to the Deck, and Special Summon a second one, with its effect unlocked. I Special Summon ‘Gladiator Beast Darius’, whose effect Special Summons ‘Bestiari’ from the Graveyard!” Dark gales that conquered the ancients, come forth to bring victory! Let your wings demolish all that would stand against you! Contact Fusion! Imperial Eagle, Gladiator Beast Gyzarus! Now, Kieran’s trump card appeared, screeching at ‘Dark Highlander’. I activate ‘Gyzarus’’ effect! When it is Special Summoned, I can destroy two cards on the field. I choose ‘Dark Highlander’ and your centre face down card!”“I chain the effect of ‘Fake Trap’! By revealing my face-down card to you, I can negate its destruction. Also, ‘Ziggurat Spear’ can sacrifice itself to protect ‘Dark Highlander’! Your monster didn’t destroy anything!”“Not yet anyway. I activate the Spell Card ‘Shrink’, cutting ‘Dark Highlander’s’ ATK in half! (Dark Highlander ATK: 2800 -> 1400) Now ‘Gyzarus’, attack and destroy! ““I activate my face-down ‘Weapon from the Grave’! By removing ‘Instantaneous Arrival’ in my Graveyard from play, I can equip ‘Axe of Despair’ to ‘Dark Highlander’ from my Graveyard!” (Dark Highlander ATK: 1400 -> 2400)“Unfortunately Jack, I was prepared for this, regardless of the fact you revealed it to me to keep it on the field. From my hand, I activate the Quick-Play Spell ‘Tactics Change’! This returns ‘Gyzarus’ to the Extra Deck and Special Summons two ‘Gladiator Beast’ monsters from my Deck. I summon ‘Laquari’ and ‘Dimacari’! Since it’s still my Battle Phase, I’ll use ‘Laquari’ to attack ‘Flame Crime the Crimson King’!” The two fire monsters clashed, Kieran’s augmented Feel battering Jack, despite the low level of damage. (Jack LP: 4000 -> 3900)“Let me guess, you’ll now switch ‘Laquari’ out for something that can destroy ‘Dark Highlander’ through an effect?”“Normally, yes. But this time, I’m going to force you to think on your feet. It’s still my Battle Phase, so I activate a pair of cards; the Trap ‘Fiendish Chain’, and the Quick-Play Spell ‘Bestial Tuning’. The first targets ‘Dark Highlander’, negating both its effect and its ability to attack, while the second targets ‘Gladiator Beast Dimacari’, treating it as a Tuner Monster until the end of this turn.”“A Tuner Monster? But why would you want a Tuner?” Asked a shocked Jack. “Unless…”“That’s right! The key to the next stage of your duelling is a Synchro Monster, but one you’ve never seen before! I activate 'Aggressive Tuning' to tune my Level 4 ‘Dimacari’ to my Level 4 ‘Laquari’!” Great ruler of flames, reveal your form to us! The ancient dragon’s power fuels your wrath! Synchro Summon! Strength of a thousand kings, Red Dragon Archfiend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathanael D. Striker Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Two things. A thread asking YCM's opinion about Larxene, that almost turned into a spamhole/flamethread. The other I don't want to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexadin Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Well you kinda asked for it, by making a thread about Larxene. As he (I think it's an he) is the most hated and 1 of the most well know members of YCM.It would happen to even the mods.Or YCMaker. So don't worry about that. So did anyone made any new cards?

Max Darkness Posted April 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 So did anyone made any new cards? Effect: 1 Fiend-Type Tuner + "Dark Highlander" + 1 non-Tuner monsterThis card's Synchro Summon is unaffected by the effect(s) of "Highlander" monsters. Neither player can Synchro Summon and Synchro Monsters cannot be Special Summoned from the Graveyard. Each time your opponent activates an Equip Card, you can destroy that card and inflict 400 damage to your opponent. Then, remove 1 Equip Card in your opponent's Graveyard from play. At the end of a turn this card did not inflict damage to your opponent, return this card to the Extra Deck and Special Summon 1 "Dark Highlander" from your Graveyard.

Lexadin Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Very nice, so it's a upgraded "Dark Highlander"? Interesting. Though it might be hard too keep it on the field when your opponent don't uses Equips and then stalls for time. Anyway, I presume this is for your fic?

Basically, since the "Majestics" won't appear, it's the counterpart Jack uses. And since he runs a lot of burn Equips (like "Darkworld Shackles"), he'll be able to use its effect more effectively.

Lexadin Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 That won't work as its lore says: "At the end of a turn this card did not inflict damage to your opponent" Burning with other cards would be useless, as its not "Nightmare Highlander" that burns.

No, but he has a lot of those burn Equips also reduce ATK/DEF, allowing "Nightmare Highlander" to attack and deal damage. And to be fair, it is more likely to be used for its 3800 ATK and total lockdown of Synchro Monsters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And to be fair, it is more likely to be used for its 3800 ATK and total lockdown of Synchro Monsters. Only if those cards really lower it's ATK. And if you're opponent uses cards like "Nightmare Steelcage" (like Kieran did) it's still can't attack. So it will, once again, only last for a short while. Understandable, but it won't pose much of a threat if it only remains on the field for 1 (of your) turns. I really think it's restictions + its cost isn't justified looking at its stats and Effect (I agree that a Synchro Lockdown is powerfull, but not that powerfull).

And like the "Majestics" are game-enders, so is this. (Also, in the manga everyone uses Equips) Understandable, but it won't pose much of a threat if it only remains on the field for 1 (of your) turns. I really think it's restictions + its cost isn't justified looking at its stats and Effect (I agree that a Synchro Lockdown is powerfull, but not that powerfull). Hence why he usually use the standard "Dark Highlander" or its "Assault Mode" form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Darkness Posted April 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I'll probably end up changing the effect to: 'When a card is equipped to an opponent's monster, you can destroy it and inflict 400 damage to your opponent.' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
