@A.T:
I liked the card, its just not that playable on its own, thats all, Maybe I should have posted my scoring system beforehand. Otherwise, the card was great.

Well, I'll be the first to submit, then.

I was actually really excited to present these (and it took me a while to find a good couple of pictures), and I think these effects are pretty well thought-through. Can't wait for the final results. =D

[center][i]"Kaczar, Minor Warrior" + 1 non-Tuner monster[/i][/center]

[center][i]When this card is Synchro Summoned: Search your Graveyard for 1 "Kaczar, Minor Warrior" and attach it to this card as an Equip Spell Card with the following effect: During each of your Standby Phases, if you only control 1 monster, the equipped monster can attack your opponent directly. If the equipped monster inflicts more than 4500 damage in this way, you must skip your next 2 Battle Phases. If this card is destroyed in face-up Attack Position: Search your Graveyard for 1 "Kaczar, Minor Warrior" and Special Summon it in face-up Attack Position.[/i][/center]

Ok.

All judged, and there is a winner (at last)


3rd place, goes to:

[spoiler=3rd Place]

[b]HadesRuler[/b]


[b]synchro[/b]

Balance: 88/100 Pretty well balanced in my estimations. It isn't as easy to summon as many other synchros, but can reach a high attack, although making it more of a beatstick than anything. The latter effect is simple, its a nice perk with fair requirements, but overall I feel this card is just a pinch away from competitive. and fits into an average card zone.
Playability: 85/100 Its a level 7 synchro, that gives it some credit if nothing else. But its perhaps not as playable as others, such as Black Rose Dragon, which can clear the field and think nothing of it. Since this card has a specific tuner needed to work, a bit more power would be useful.
Cosmetics: 35/40 Simple and nice.
OCG: 29/30 The final phrase isn't in-keeping with the :; system, although I may be wrong, otherwise great.
Originality: 22/30 Not very original but a fairly different graveyard dependant attack bonus, simple can be good, but it doesn't excel in delivering something others cannot.

259/300

[b]tuner[/b]

Balance: 91/100 The sacrifice is more than enough a payment for the SS. It has drawbacks for its fast usage, but since your field must be empty, perhaps a tad awkward to use effectively.
Playability: 90/100 Playable in many situations, whereas it can also seem circumstancial or useless in some decks. In the correct one however, it is usable.
Cosmetics: 36/40 Aliteration makes the name catchy, overused but nice picture.
OCG: 30/30 I'm sure its more or less spot on.
Originality: 22/30 Used on other cards in a similiar way, but the restricting effect isn't always seen.

269/300

[b]Total: 264/300[/b]


[/spoiler]


Which means, 2nd place and the 2nd place prize is given to...


[spoiler=2nd Place]

[b]Eternal Elysium

synchro[/b]

Balance: 91/100 I like the effect very much, the destructive burn this card can give comes with the drawback of having to have a weak field, plus the 4500 limit limits how much it can be abused, although 4500 is an odd figure to use. The last effect makes it a very recyclable chain which is useful but also quite overpowering, since the tuner will get to add yet another lv2 to the hand.
Playability: 94/100 In a deck centered around supporting it: a very playable card. Even if not it is still usable especially if equip spells like axe of despair are in the deck. Recycling effect makes it all the more playable.
Cosmetics: 36/40 The name is very cool, and the picture fits it well and is of great quality, although it isn't perfect.
OCG: 30/30 1 place where I'm simply not sure if there is an error or not, but overall the OCG is perfect xD.
Originality: 27/30 The equip Union/xyz inspired idea is very unique. Normal effects are made available in an interesting way.

278/300

[b]tuner[/b]

Balance: 90/100 The level 2 to the hand is handy and quite generous, but not OP. The latter effect I don't really follow, but doesnt appear to make the card too abusable.
Playability: 91/100 The level 2 to the hand effect is very playable, the latter effect I don't think is needed though?
Cosmetics: 39/40 The picture is ridiculously authentic and the name is also quite nice. Good job.
OCG: 30/30 Great.
Originality: 22/30 Not hugely original, but still incites innovation.

272/300

[b]Total: 275/300[/b]


[/spoiler]


So, 1st place then!

[spoiler=1st!]

[b]Syns

xyz[/b]

Balance: 85/100 The massive playability is in part down to the overwhelming versatility of the card, which makes it slightly OP. It requires only 2 tributes for a monster searching effect, a monster destroying effect and a negating effect. None of the effects are too overpowered, but when pieced together, it feels as if there is a lack of a drawback.
Playability: 98/100 Very playable with the support, which encourages an xyz material for its summon, giving Xyz Master something to reincarnate! Alot of meta monsters are ATK heavy, so the countless horde of low defense monsters will be hurt by this cards effect very well. The final effect also encourages lockdown, just very,very playable.
Cosmetics: 38/40 The picture has depth making it look of a great quality, well-suited name too.
OCG: 29/30 Technical phrases are worded with precision and accuracy, but an effect of this size is bound to have tiny mistakes here and there.
Originality: 25/30 Individually the effects aren't original, but when pieced together, make a unique card.

275/300

[b]xyz support[/b]

Balance: 91/100 The sacrifice of spell/trap is very fair for the xyz summon and requires an xyz to have already been removed, but the negating effect once per turn may be a tad too generous.
Playability: 96/100 Although the xyz needs to be in the graveyard, that is quite easy to achieve + spell card is likely to be in the hand. Effect helps a lot of decks brilliantly, Its lockdown effect is very useful.
Cosmetics: 38/40 Cool little wizard with a blatent and authentic name. Whats not to like?
OCG: 30/30 Looks perfect to me.
Originality: 24/30 The card becoming an xyz attachment is an interesting idea. Nothing to inspired otherwise.

279/300

[b]Total: 277/300[/b]
