Giga Hand Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 These cards seem like you went "I like this card so I'll support it", and while this is a valid reason to support a card out of the blue, it seems like you didn't put much thought into it. Grizzly thins the deck, and gives me Warwolf, 300 extra ATK, might run if I have Warwolf but he's easy enough to get on the field anyway. Swan can revive itself, which is very nice. Ox seems to be the ultimate goal of this set, and quite frankly, it's a very poor card. I wouldn't tribute 1 monster to summon it, much less 2. It has the same ATK as Cyber Dragon, which can summon itself for no cost, and a very expensive and underwhelming burn effect. If I summon Grizzly, tribute to search Warwolf, and revive Swan, I'd get more out of this card if I tributed Swan to summon it, rather than tribute both to burn my oppnent upon summon. The first option allows me to deal a maximum of 4100 damage, but the second only gives me 3300, and that's if I'm lucky. The equip spell seems pretty useless. What benefit does banishing the top card of my opponent's deck give me? They may not be able to use the card, but they get the one under it 1 turn sooner. The 500 ATK bonus is surpassed by some generic equip spells. Overall, I would suggest making cards that I can put into a deck that Gene-Warped Warwolf can already be found in. I would suggest making some of these Gemini monsters, but with better effects, since Gemini monsters by default need to have good effects to be worth the trouble you put into obtaining them. This is just a suggestion, feel free to do whatever you want. Link to comment

Boss Z Posted June 7, 2011 Report Share Posted June 7, 2011 Swan is WAY to easy to abuse... [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Cannon_Soldier]Cannon Soldier[/url] Abuse any one?? Grizzly I like greatly... simple but its good Ox is pretty nice On Battle Blade: [b]Equip only to a "Gene-Warped" monster[/b] [u]NOT[/u] [i]Equip only to a "Gene-Warped monster"[/i] IMO, this card sounds a [u][i][b]LITTLE[/b][/i][/u] too strong...

[/quote] I disagree. I'd rather run Axe of Despair, since it's retrievable (barely) and has more targets. Removing cards from my opponent's deck really only helps if I get to choose, or if I'm going for win by mill. Also recall, if the equipped monster is removed from the field, the equip spell is destroyed, making them an inevitable -1. They need to be freaking powerful, like this. Ox is much better now. The burn effect is more powerful, making it useful, and it got a nice ATK boost. Not the most powerful card ever, but not too bad. Link to comment
DARKPLANT RISING Posted June 8, 2011 Report Share Posted June 8, 2011 Grizzly seems pretty balanced to me. At least in the current meta. Swan, I'd make it a Tuner. It's EARTH, meaning it can't be easily dumped, and Warwolf is undermeta, so yeah. Ox, I would add either: (I) This card's name is treated as "Gene-Warped Warwolf" as long as it remains face-up on the field OR (II) Change the "When this card is destroyed" to "When this card is removed from the field" and make it unoptional. Battle Blade isn't really nice. Well, Equips are overall so. Maybe 1500? Just for laughes. That's my advice. Link to comment
Skarlet Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 I actually like most of what we see here, there's a lot of good stuff with this set. Mind if I add a few fan cards *Does it anyway* [b]Gene-Warped Raging Bull[/b] EARTH - Level 7 - Beast-Warrior - Effect [i]When a Gene-Warped monster you control is destroyed, pay Life Points equal to the ATK of the destroyed monster to Special Summon this card from your hand (this is not optional). When this card is Special Summoned by it's own effect, destroy 1 monster your opponent controls. While this card is in your Graveyard, you can tribute 1 Gene-Warped monster to return it to your hand.[/i] 2900 - 400 I figure a boss monster couldn't hurt right? Link to comment
Darkest Hour Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 [quote]They may not be able to use the card, but they get the one under it 1 turn sooner. [/quote] Kind of a stupid way to look at the card and apply logic to the effect, but whatever. RFPing a card before it's used is always good, and the only disbenefit of it all is that the card is random. Link to comment
