YCM Economy: Advanced Cards Redemption Thread

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/357075-the-pyromaniacalsparks-archetype-spam-discard-burn-fusion-summon-repeat/ - Pyromanaical/Sparks Archetype. I did this cuz it seemed no one else wanted to. I now see why.

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/357430-blue-eyes-fusion/- Blue-Eyes Fusion Spell Card. Interesting way to make cards like Neutron Blast and Shining Dragon have a point in Blue-Eyes, though I'm hesitant to say that it'd ever be used in any build of BE that's not focused around this card.

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/357140-written-exo-gear-frame-1515/ "Exo Gears" - Cool archetype idea of building your custom machine. A bit weak, but still nice to see the concept explored, seeing as we really only have it in cards like Beginning Knight

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/357403-the-omnisceptors-archetype-written/ "Omnisceptors" - I like the gimmick, but I feel like the OP is looking in a bubble, without all the ways this could be abused. Hope they improve it in the future.

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/357386-written-advanced-red-eyes-9-cards/ "Red-Eyes" support - One of the only Red-Eyes B. Alternative Dragon ideas I've actually like. Definitely some interesting stuff here, though a few of the retrains were entirely unnecessary.

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/357292-neon-thresher-the-sword-is-mightier-than-the-horde/ "Neon Thresher" - A decently cool Psychic-Type Synchro Pendulum mid-boss type monster.

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/357430-blue-eyes-fusion/ "Blue-Eyes Fusion" - I'm not entirely sold on this card, feels a bit exploitable, seeing as you can dump 3 Blue-Eyes immediately, but I don't think it's too aggravating, and can make for a nice comeback card.

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

I'll look over the reviews, but note that due to YCM being shitty right now (which you probably figured out), I'll have to award the points at a later time. I don't like making you guys wait, but going to wait until things settle down.

Pyromaniacal: 2000 + 600 int(10/4) = 3200 (bumping it to 3600 as you did review them all)

BE Fusion: 1000 (only reason I would use this would be to get a faster BE Twin Dragon or something, plus revival fodder for Swing / Silver's)

 

4600

VCR Exo Gears: 2000 + int(15/4) x 600 = 3800 (4200 because you did everything)

 

Ominsceptors: 2000 + int(13/4) x 600 = 3800 (4000 because you did everything at the time of posting; he added another card)

 

Red-Eyes: 2000 + int(9/4)x600 = 3200 (3400)

Awarded points.

I apologize for being late, but had exams and other things on my mind this week.

 

----

In another hour, the redemption period resets, and those of you who did reviews can submit them for next week. (It's a little past 11 pm; period resets at 12:00 am Sunday, my time)

[leafbladie]

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/357696-dsceptyrs-support-spyral-supremacy-1010/ "SPYRAL" support - Don't think I did the best on this, as I'm not so keen on SPYRAL's and what they do, but that's in part due to them not being a complete archetype.

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/357853-mlop-a-rethinking-of-union-monsters/ "MLP" cards - A bit too many cards honestly, lacks focus, but I like the idea of Unions, and would like to see more done than just ABCs.

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/358105-the-lightwave-archetype-senetdulums/ "Lightwave" - A pendulum archetype that's pretty strong in power, but it seems to lack the consistency to pull of that power effectively.

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/358033-neos-fusion/ "Neos Fusion" - Pretty decent, a few issues which they later addressed, so that's good.

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/358132-written-elemental-hero-storm-avian/ "Elemental HERO Storm Avian" - Pretty strong support for HEROs, possibly a bit too strong as someone else was pointing out, but I appreciate the idea, and it fits in lore wise really well.

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

SPYRALS: 2000 + 600*int(10/4) = 3200 (bumping to 3400 because you did everything)

MLP: 2000 + 600*int(37/4) = 6200 (yeah, I agree that over 15-20 is a lot; that, and I'm not really keen of the MLP series for various reasons)

Lightwave: 2000 + 600*int(14/4) = 3800 (bumping to 4000 b/c everything)

Neos Fusion: 1000

Storm Avian: 1000

 

15,400

 

(Oh right, I technically have a set that you can review; that can count for next week if you feel like doing it)

(Oh right, I technically have a set that you can review; that can count for next week if you feel like doing it)

Sure, I'll do that if you want.

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

That would be great; thanks. If not, can just make a request in that Advanced Multiples thread and someone else can get to it (if you're busy with others).

 

Redemptions have been slow lately.

Is it the ZPD one? Just want to make sure before I start.

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

That's the only set I have on the first page, so yeah.

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/358198-written-pb-j-sanwitch-retrain/ - I like PB&J, don't you? I also like Sangan and The Witch of the Black Forest

 

maybe you don't like those.

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/357728-psychic-prowess-a-penny-from-your-thoughts/ - As a previous Psychic Synchro Spam deck user, I can say this with full honesty: this is something we sorely need irl. Though, knowing Konami's poo-tier RnD team, it'd end up without the LIGHT/DARK restriction, and Kozmo would shoot up to tier 0

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

I may want to modify the award formula, so you get points for every card you review (depending on quality), instead of making it a step function and having to round up.

PB&J (Sanwitch and friends retrain): 2500

 

(I have no issues with them, and like I mentioned in Egmo's retrained Sanwitch thread, Sangan really needs to be let out of TCG jail now. Why is KoA being an idiot about not letting him back, but OCG said "alright he's reformed enough; let's give him @ 3")

 

Evilswarm boss: 1000

 

I don't remember if this was the one Black chewed out some time ago; think it is. But yeah, why is a 3-mat Rank 4 with that good of an effect a 3050 monster? Evilswarms aren't relevant right now, yeah, but stats are too high. 100 less, and I guess it'd be fine. Would need to look it over some more.

 

Psychic Prowess: 1000

 

I would've liked this card for Metalfoes too, since I hate blowing up Combination every time I want something (and they need the search otherwise). But yeah, if they print this without the restriction, cancer Star Wars becomes more of a pain to deal with (and I've been hoping for that Deck to get hit HARD for a while). This does stop PSYFrame too, but a bit uncertain of how much of a pain they are (outside Omega and stuff).

 

----

4500.

[Sluggaholic]

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/358383-super-gadget-10/ - Super Gadgets, when in reality, it's simply the second coming of Kozmo

 

It's been a slow week fuer mich.

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

I have a hard time reading his effects; that's one thing I'm going to mention. But yeah, he did say that he mixed Kozmos and Cubics (and I don't really care for the former for various reasons); he ever fix it though?

 

Anyway, 3400 for reviewing the whole thing. (Well, under the current pay system, that's full)

 

-----

There are some other sets you could review in CC; may need to update one of my recent ones.

[leafbladie]

Missed a week, oh well:

 

ZPD (seeing as you made it, I don't think i need to include a link)

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/358296-shipment-arrived-v-o-c-a-l-archetype/ "Vocaloid" - Some interesting ideas, but it needs more focus, feels like a mish-mash of random effects. I really want a good archetype based around counters though, come one Konami, you made Unions tier 1 and Geminis playable, work on your counter monsters.

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/358378-bleh-eyes-fusion-monsters-red-eyes/ "Red-Eyes" Fusion monsters - While they're certainly more worth the effort than "Dragon Master Knight", there are some exploits that leave these to be a bit hard to consider.

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/358202-fragarach-rebirth-of-flamvell/ "Rekindling" the monster - I like it, gives Lavals and Flamevells easier access to their primary playmaker, but locks them into FIRE monsters, so no Quasar. Kind of wish it was a Level 6, but that might be a bit too good.

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/358382-boredom-incarnate/ "Dull-Eyes Languishing Dragon"  - Interesting, feels like the kind of card you'd build a deck around rather than something you tech into a deck though (partly because it's a Ritual)

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

Yeah, I should know where my ZPD stuff is.

 

Zootopia: 2000*(int 9/4)*600 = 3200 (I'll push it to 3400 since you did everything); I did make a couple more cards for them, but will have to update thread later b/c college is biting my ass with midterms.

 

Vocaloid: 2000*(int 25/4)*600 = 5600 (pushing it to 5800 because you did everything)

 

Red-Eyes Fusion: 2000

 

Fragarach: 1000

 

Dull-Eyes: 2000

 

14,200

 

(I need to award Fushi's one too)

[leafbladie]

Gave my thoughts on your new ZPD cards.

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/358307-sceptyrs-support-10-nights-of-fright/ "Nights of Fright" - Honestly the cards don't really go that much together, just meant to be Halloween themed.

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/357977-legendary-shogunate-shien-ritual-and-spell-look-at-all-this-honor/ "Legendary Shogunate - Shi'en" - Ritual that's meant to go with Six Samurai or Superheavy Samurai. Pretty cool overall, and with a few tweaks could be better, but there are some funny naming shenanigans in regards to the Ritual Spells searching ability that should probably be addressed.

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/358338-the-soaring-swordfisher-mount-this-on-your-wall/ "The Soaring Swordfisher" - Fun little tech card for Trains. Wish it supported that deck more, as right now it's trying to pass itself off as generic machine support, when it really wouldn't do that much for them. Still pretty cool though.

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/358183-terribliss-or-tibbens-whichever-bear-descriptor-scares-you-more/ "Terribliss" - Decent and generic Flip support, not much else to say.

Yeah, I saw the comments on cards 10-12.

 

Halloween stuff: 3200

Shien: 2000

Swordfisher: 1000

Terribliss: 1000

ZPD stuff: I already gave you points for the first nine, but yeah, I'll add stuff on for this one.

[kevintriedge]

Hello, I'm new here so I'm not very sure how this works... (I read the rules, but not sure which rules are still in effect and which ones, if any, have been replaced with a newer rule)

 

Does this review count? 

 

http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/358539-voidless-the-banishing-archetype-1919/?do=findComment&comment=6947789

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

Just as a sidenote, there is a Casual equivalent of this thread; thread you linked to is in the Casual area. (This one is for Advanced cards)

But otherwise, review is fine. 

 

Points will be given later. 

 

(None of the rules in the main post have changed, other than possibly the payout, but haven't gotten to it yet; if I decided to)

[leafbladie]

Skyfaring Idols: I see potential, I think starting with a counter generating archetype may not have been the best idea for them (it's a really hard idea to pull off correctly), but I think if they work on creating a more consistent archetype, they'll do quite a bit better.

 

Crystal Gem: Some interesting ideas, but it feels like there's a mix of effects from 2010 YuGiOh (Equip cards that only boost stats) and what YuGiOh might devolve to by 2020 (Monster that can summon other monsters within their archetype for free).

 

Elemental HERO Space Neos: If it was anything other than Neos, I'd probably call this card broken. As is, it's a card that allows them to actually make some plays, and not much else.

 

Elemental HERO Tropos: Nice little Stratos reference, and some decent effects to mirror the little bugger. It's Level 3, so unfortunately no Rank 4 plays, but probably for the better.

 

Destiny HERO Dark Hunter: This is probably the best D HERO support idea I've seen in a while. Love how it mirrors "Destiny HERO Malicious" in its usability to help make Rank 4/6's (except this one actually does require HEROs). Love it all the way,
