OK. These are the results. Sorry i took some time out to write detailed reviews, hopefully you can forgive the delay =)

 

[spoiler=YinYangYan]

Card: Bit Magnet

 

Balance: 25/25 (Really balanced)

Usefulness: 18/25 (Possible use in synchros, but being a spirit hurts setting up other things like Tribute Summons, etc.)

Creativity: 17/20 (Conditional Spirit monster is interesting but it’s too straight-forward)

Simplicity: 20/20 (Did perfectly here)

OCG: 10/10 (Impeccable)

 

Total: 90/100

 

 

 

[spoiler= AsterikcAde]

Card: Terrorspawn Hellwing

 

Balance: 13/25 (Big problem.. “activate card effect”… racks up major synchro material, plus, swarming for 3 makes for 2400 Damage.)

Usefulness: 25/25 (plenty useful..)

Creativity: 20/20 (ooh, I do <3 the style of this card.. summon, return, etc. Works very creatively with itself :D)

Simplicity: 20/20 (It passes the “no useless parts” rule and is straight forward (but has many uses..)

OCG: 9/10 (Some obsolete parts… “in any position” is always implied and “onto” is not a word)

Total: 87/100

 

 

 

 

[spoiler=n8thegr8]

Card: Magma Minnow

 

Balance: 12/25 (You do realize this makes for 2 easy 2200 ATK beatsticks..? Plus, destroying 1 will accomplish little and requires double the destruction.)

Usefulness: 25/25 (yeah..)

Creativity: 18/20 (does well for synergy with itself, but effects aren’t anything terribly original.)

Simplicity: 20/20 (You did fine here [though more in the creativity section would be good and you could still earn a good score here])

OCG: 10/10 (good.)

 

Total: 85/100

 

 

 

 

[spoiler=DarkPlant]

Card: Sacred Core

 

Balance: 25/25 (Now this is awesome… because of it’s sole reliability on searching more Core’s to use it’s effect it requires an engine built around it, which balances it but is still useful [which I’ll cover in usefulness])

Usefulness: 22/25(Nice… although requires some searching engine and some hand advantage, has explosive power with the right conditions.)

Creativity: 20/20 (Has a unique combination of effects and none are overused, ‘cept maybe SS when destroyed by battle, but that’s fine.)

Simplicity: 20/20 (all parts work perfectly together like a clock)

OCG: 10/10 (minor spelling error but I’m guessing that’s just due to fast typing xD)

 

Total: 97/100

 

 

 

 

[spoiler=#Sasuke Uchiha# ]

Card: Deoxys, the Virus

 

Balance: 25/25 (Very balanced. Nothing wrong here.)

Usefulness: 20/25 (Serves as a beatstick at most, which is fine, but it would be hard to put this into a deck.)

Creativity: 17/20 (Nicely reflects the pokemon :D Problem is doesn’t work with itself intricately but only adds other copies when it’s destroyed, making it hard to be used in creative ways.)

Simplicity: 15/20 (Same as above, but see since you focused on mimicking the pokemon, there are some less effective parts. DEF counters are the same as the ATK counters and would serve little purpose in the game)

OCG: 10/10 (Gud gud.)

 

Total: 87/100

 

 

 

 

[spoiler=Maha Guns]

Card: Battle Assault Droid

 

Balance: 25/25 (totally balanced.)

Usefulness: 17/25 (Ehh, it isn’t incredibly useful with copies of itself, seldom in a deck. The shuffle effect will also be usually detrimental since you want your graveyard full and this card doesn’t have any built in recycling effects [or works with any for a 1650ATK Dark Machine])

Creativity: 20/20 (Works well with itself and has fulfilled those requirements)

Simplicity: 18/20 (Call this a consequence of that effect not being useful, but the shuffle effect just tacks on to the “random effect” syndrome. However, pretty straight forward.)

OCG: 9/10 (You’re missing your articles which made it kinda hard to read.)

 

Total: 89/100

 

 

 

 

[spoiler=FacelessHero]

Card: Swarming Insects

 

Balance: 25/25 (Completely balanced.)

Usefulness: 19/25 (It is pretty weak and only maxes out at 1700 ATK. There is hand advantage you can gain but not a huge incentive to swarming all 3 out.)

Creativity: 20/20 (Effect is nicely complicated and covers all the essentials – searches from Hand, Deck and Grave. Some other effects are in there and are random, and although not encouraged, do get more creativity points [but hurt simplicity].)

Simplicity: 14/20 (Random effects included here which make the purpose of the card muddled… gaining LP and the ATK gain don’t contribute.)

OCG: 10/10 (not docking you down, but just remember “destroyed by battle or card effect” is unnecessary.)

 

Total: 88/100

 

 

 

 

[spoiler=Goodnight]

Card: Eatos Morta

 

Balance: 19/25 (Bleh, destroying a monster swarms another Eatos for more destruction or just summon a boss monster. Potentially too destructive.)

Usefulness: 25/25 (simply put extremely useful)

Creativity: 20/20 (I greatly commend you for this effect… equipping copies and destroying… awesome on this portion :D)

Simplicity: 20/20 (effects work perfectly together and purpose is clear)

OCG: 10/10 (good.)

 

Total: 94/100

 

 

 

 

So! Final Scores are:

 

1st Place - Darkplant, with 97/100

2nd Place - Goodnight, with 94/100

3rd Place - YinYangYan, with 90/100

 

But i have to say good job everyone! :) This was hands-down one of the BEST contest groups i had. You all had high scores =D

 

1 will hand out reps and points, gradually.
