Then why did you say that you wanted to 1v1 Gad? If you are serious and don't know how to make a card check the card making guides or you can drop out.

[Trebuchet MS]

When the 48-hour limit passes and no submission has been detected, with no request for a time extension, the existing participant will be dropped and the vacancy reopened.

[Trebuchet MS]

Thank you, Legendary Dog King.

Card A: OCG mistakes, such as Graveyard should be capitalized but Hand shouldn't. The effect doesn't fit the name nor does it fit the picture. It's an annihilator, but you draw a card? How about discard 1 card destroy 1 monster on the field should be better.
Card B: Balanced, good OCG, and effect fits the name. It's also drawing cards, but it has a destroy effect first and the second effect makes it actually cruel. But this effect and stats make it seem more like a level 6 rather than a level 5.
Vote goes to Card B
(Why bother with the anonymity when most of the time you can tell by style and OCG skills. Though I noticed Gad made his card copyright 1996 to match leg dog kings)

[Trebuchet MS]

1-0 in Card B's favour.

Morpthronic Celfon is a phone but it doesnt let me call anyone, your point?

Morpthronic Celfon is a phone but it doesnt let me call anyone, your point?

It calls for assistance in the other Morphtronics. A bit of a shot, but still.

 

But anyway, your call on whether to invalidate the vote or not.

[Excalibur the Divine]

Even if the effect DID fit the name, vote goes to Card B. Also, Morpothronic Celfon "calls" other morpothronics, so I don't see how it doesn't fit the picture. Your card is an ahhihlater that has the effect of an emissary/supporter/(similar name).

It annhilates my hand and my grave

[Excalibur the Divine]

That...doesn't make sense.
Even if I did vote goes to Card B

[Trebuchet MS]

Bumping for votes.

Card A: Essentially banishes 2 monsters to SS itself, then it discards to draw another one.

 

Card B: SS itself by Tributing another Fish, gets a free draw when it kills something and can force something to attack this card once per turn.

 

Basically, card A's effect is "banish 2 monsters, discard a card that isn't needed at the time and get a new one". As already mentioned, it's named Annihilator but has a draw effect. I could probably see the "Annihilator" part coming from the 2 Fishborgs that got banished, but that's about it. Considering there are only 3-4 Fishborgs that exist, getting this card out is much easier in theory than in practice; considering Blaster is still banned. TBH, it doesn't offer much synergy to them at all.

 

Card B has some use as Rank 5 fodder in Sharks if you really want to (for 73 / Fortress or whatever), or just as a way to get a moderately strong monster on the field. The extra draw effect is nice (though it'll be destroying a fair bit of monsters with that 2400 ATK of hers; coupled with her forced attack effect), and much like an angler in real life, it "lures" a monster to attack it. Granted, forcing the opponent to slam one of their smaller monsters into a 2400 attacker + you drawing off of it (by virtue of #2) is a powerful effect, the OPT clause at the end serves as a countermeasure to it.

 

 

Going with card B for actually being useful; both cards are fine in terms of balance.

[Trebuchet MS]

And that's 72 hours.

 

Card B, my card, wins 2-0.

 

Thank you for playing.
