If the opponent controls a Field Spell Card: you can Set this card as a Field Spell Card (from your hand).
• As a Field Spell Card: During your Main Phase, you can Special Summon this card (from the Field Card zone). If this face-up card would leave the field, Set it instead.
• As a monster: If this card would leave the field, Set it as a Field Spell Card instead. If this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle: reveal the top 3 cards of your opponent's Deck. You can pay 1000 Life Points; banish 1. Then replace them in their original order.

[b][color=#000000]Originality: 4/4 [/color][/b][color=#000000]It's nice to see a concept that has hardly ever been thrown around before. For me, this is very unique and creative [/color]
[b][color=#000000]Usefulness: 2/4 [/color][/b][color=#000000]Since it's first effect can only be used when your opponent has a field spell card, this made it less versatile and therefore, not very useful [/color]
[b][color=#000000]Cosmetics: 4/4 [/color][/b][color=#000000]Couldn't have done a better job at this. Like you said, the Set ID stands for "Rep Abuse" right? [/color]
[color=#000000][b]Picture: 3/4 [/b][/color][color=#000000]I like BRS, but I think it could be better [/color]
[b][color=#000000]Realism: 4/4 [/color][/b][color=#000000]OCG is spot-on. Nice.[/color]

[b]Overall: 17/20 [/b]That is a high score.

[b]Lore: [/b]During each End Phase place 1 "Bersek" Counter (Max. 2) to this card; if this card has 2 "Bersek" Counters on it, increase it's ATK by 1400; during each Battle Phase this card must target the monster with the highest ATK your opponent controls; if your opponent controls no monsters, destroy this card.

[b]Originality: 3/4 [/b]It doesn't seem all that original to me. It's a nice concept but It just doesn't seem that original.
[b]Usefulness: 2/4 [/b]This would have had a perfect score if it was a level 4. But at level 5, it's just not worth protecting for 2 turns you know?
[b]Cosmetics: 1/4 [/b][color=#000000]Your circulation and set ID is bullsh*t. [/color]
[color=#000000][b]Picture: 3/4 [/b][/color][color=#000000]Nothing much to say about this. It just looks nice and fitting. But it does need a better background.[/color]
[b]Realism: 4/4 [/b]OCG is spot-on.

[color=#008000][b]Overall: 14/20 [/b][/color][color=#000000]If it weren't for the picture and your OCG, this would have had a much lower score. But this score, for me is just mediocre.[/color]

You can Special Summon this card (from your hand) by banishing 1 face-up Plant-Type monster you control. Your opponent cannot select other face-up Plant-Type monster as an attack target. Once per turn, during your Main Phase 1, you can Special Summon 1 Level 2 or lower Plant-Type monster from your Deck. You cannot Special Summon Level 5 or higher monster the turn you activate this effect.

[b]Originality: 2.5/4 [/b][color=#000000]It's a REDMD for plants. Enough said. Effect is basically REDMD with a bit of twist added to it.[/color]
[b]Usefulness: 3/4 [/b]1800 ATK. It doesn't have much staying power and will probably die after using it's effect once. Still useful in plants, thanks to its effect.
[b]Cosmetics: 3/4 [/b]Why does the set ID have ENXX1 instead of EN001? Other than that, it's a nice card to look at.
[b]Picture: 4/4 [/b]For me, it's one of the best card artworks here. It fits the name and theme nicely. I just absolutely love it!
[b]Realism: [/b][b]3/4 [/b]Minor spelling errors here and there.

[b][color=#008000]Overall: 15.5/20 [/color][/b][color=#000000]Mediocre.[/color]

During each of your End Phases: Reveal 1 DARK Fairy-Type monster in your hand, or destroy this card. When this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle, activate one of the following effects: -Special Summon 1 Level 5 or higher DARK Fairy-Type Monster from your hand or Graveyard. -Discard 1 DARK Fairy-Type monster and draw 1 card.

[b]Originality: 3/4 [/b]Just some Darklord support. Effect is fairly original but that's pretty much it.
[b][color=#000000]Usefulness: 4/4 [/color][/b][color=#000000]At 1950, it tramples mostly anything on the field in the early game. This is also very useful Darklord support, it allows for more combos and such.[/color]
[b]Cosmetics: 3/4 [/b][color=#000000]REAL5 just doesn't seem right to me. What does it actually stand for? [/color]
[b][color=#000000]Picture: 2/4 [/color][/b][color=#000000]It's too zoomed in, and I just don't like that a lot. Also, it needs a better background.[/color]
[b][color=#000000]Realism: 4/4 [/color][/b][color=#000000]OCG is spot on.[/color]

[b]Overall: 16/20[/b]

Once per turn: You can discard 1 Thunder-Type monster to target 1 face-up monster; its ATK becomes 2000. During the End Phase of the turn that this effect is used for the third time: Destroy all other cards on the field and Special Summon 1 "Kagame Token" (Thunder-Type/LIGHT/Level 6/ATK 2000/DEF 2000).

[b]Originality: 4/4 [/b]The concept and effects and such are just original for me.
[b][color=#000000]Usefulness:[/color][/b][color=#000000] [b]3[/b][b]/4 [/b]Who still uses thunders? However, if you actually uses Thunders, it's a nice support that can either weaken your enemy or help your cards.[/color]
[b][color=#000000]Cosmetics: 3/4 [/color][/b][color=#000000]LEN as the set ID? Me no gusta.[/color]
[b][color=#000000]Picture: -2/4 [/color][/b][color=#000000](That's minus 2) [/color][color=#000000]Thanks a lot for not following the rules. [/color]
[b][color=#000000]Realism: 4/4 [/color][/b][color=#000000]OCG is spot on.[/color]

[b][color=#ff0000]Overall: 12/20 [/color][/b][color=#000000]For not following the rules.[/color]

Lore: "Each turn place 1 Counter on this card. Once per turn you can tribute Counters as follows to activate 1 effect:
• 1 - this card gains 250 ATK & DEF.
• 3 - negate 1 attack, Spell, or Trap card.
• 4 - negate 1 monster card's effect.
• 5 - this card gains 1500 ATK.

[b]Originality: 3/4 [/b]Me at the overall concept: meh. Still original though.
[b][color=#000000]Usefulness: 1/4 [/color][/b][color=#000000]This card is too damn slow![/color]
[b][color=#000000]Cosmetics: 3/4 [/color][/b][color=#000000]A bit of error in the Set ID. [/color]
[b][color=#000000]Picture: [/color][/b][color=#000000][b]4/4 [/b][/color][color=#000000]It just looks great.[/color]
[b][color=#000000]Realism: 2/4 [/color][/b][color=#000000]Umm... At what part of the turn does this card gain counters? And shouldn't it be remove instead of tribute counters?[/color]

[b][color=#ff0000]11/20 [/color][/b][color=#000000]Not useful+Bad OCG= Bad score.[/color]

w00t! Totally didn't expect to win. :D
Originality was one of the things I tried to focus on; looks like it paid off :P
Also, as well as the RPAB reference you mentioned, EN051 alludes to the year 2051 (apparently when the video game is set). And the serial number is Pi.

Congrats to everyone :)
I think if Newhat had had a legitimate picture he could have won... Lucky he didn't lol.
*Or if Darkplant had known about the cosmetics category.

...Oh, cosmetics matter?

Well, to avoid confusion when I'm searching through my cards, I label my cards "REALX-ENXXX" and such. REAL1-EN001, REAL1-EN002, ...REAL1-EN040, REAL2-EN001, and so on. When it goes over 40 or so, I update the number so it's easier to browse.

But I still got 2nd, yay. With the prize, I can go into the 1300's.

EDIT: I'm benevolent from heart, so I gave Thunderfudge 3 reps in place of Dread Proisen. Happy?

To answer your question, the player can give Rin a Counter anytime after summoning her, however after that any time the player adds a Counter it has to be during the same Phase of his/her turn. I thought about changing the effect so the player could add Counters for every Spell or Trap used, but decided against doing so because there's no guarantee someone will use either of those. I ultimately decided to make it turn-based because in [i]Fate/Stay Night[/i] Rin says she charges her gemstones with mana on a regular basis. And I prefer 'slow' over 'overpowered' any day, so I erred on the cautious side -- not that there aren't cards that can advance the field a turn or two, or shift Counters to other cards. With support, "Master Mage - Rin Tohsaka" becomes incredibly powerful for a Level-4 monster -- which, I believe, also reflects her character.

I guess the OCG is 'remove' and not 'tribute.' I like using 'tribute' because it's more accurate to what you're doing as a player: it's an exchange of 1 thing for another thing. OCG has always been weird, though.

What's the Set ID error? This is the 12th Tier-1 monster card I've made for a card contest. 'CCEN' predates my participation in card contests: it's the Cuteness Counterattack Set.

For the picture I always try to find something that reflects the character accurately. There are very good reasons Rin's original card is in CCEN, even with the same picture. I believe it reflects her confidence and power as well as her cuteness. Also, it's one of the few reasonable pictures of her without Archer -- or anyone else.

I regret nothing!

Well done, Thunderfudge, on your well-deserved victory.

How the hell is this anything near competitive?

It's a permanent 2050 attacker the turn you Summon it, no?

The score is legit.

I don't understand what you're asking. He said there was an error in my card's set ID. I asked him what it was. Or was that not allowed? I don't want to do something that's not allowed, so please forgive me if it's not. If the question is permitted, I would like an answer, if possible.
