[Zeppeli Gyro Supreme]

You've got the basic idea down. You just need to work on your OCG a bit (like ability isn't used in real cards. It's the 'effect')

[Wyhe]

good concept (7.8/10)

[texaschickenlittle]

You've got the basic idea down. You just need to work on your OCG a bit (like ability isn't used in real cards. It's the 'effect')

 

Thanks slayer. I went back and fixed it.

 

Also, I added a 3 new Astral Beasts: Sirius, Ursa Major, and Ursa Minor.

[Charlie016]

You've got more than just basics down. you got actual potienal. Nice series. you desvere a 10/10 for the effects, just make sure you go back and edit them, to make them more clear. And for the series.. 10/10, if you've got more coming send them here, cause that's turning out nice.

[Wyhe]

keep it up,you may actually get a full score from when this set is done with (I'll be watching)

[texaschickenlittle]

Updated again. This time 6 Zodiac Beasts: Taurus, Cancer, Leo, Scorpius, Aquarius, and Picses.

 

As for the others, I'm having trouble thinking of effects for the other Zodiac Beasts - Virgo, Libra, and Sagittarius. If anyone has any ideas, post a thread and let me know about it.

[Aesirson]

Well, Libra could be like this:

 

Zodiac Beast - Libra

????/Effect/????/? Stars

FLIP: When this card is destroyed, if you have less Life Points than your opponent, increase your Life Points by the difference.

???? ATK ???? DEF

 

Or maybe thats a little overpowered...

[texaschickenlittle]

Well' date=' Libra could be like this:

 

Zodiac Beast - Libra

????/Effect/????/? Stars

FLIP: When this card is destroyed, if you have less Life Points than your opponent, increase your Life Points by the difference.

???? ATK ???? DEF

 

Or maybe thats a little overpowered...

[/quote']

 

Thanks for the inspiration kst80. I changed up the effect though.

 

Libra is up if you want to check it.

[Wyhe]

oh yes,keep up the cards,you're letting the set come together.

infact,i can almost imagine myself playing the cards.

in short,you rock! (10/10)

[texaschickenlittle]

Thanks for the compliments lord wyne; hopefully with more input I can complete this Set.

 

I still need help. If y'all who read this come up witn any ideas for Virgo and Sagittarius or any constellations or astral objects I may be able to use to create cards, please let me know. (and don't put Orion, I'm currently fleshing out his effect; so I'll post him up when I'm done.)

[Umbra]

You've missed the Level on Leo.

 

Sagittarius could be a direct-attacker.

 

Virgo could increase Life Points.

 

And also, you could add a Zodiac Beast - Ophiuchus, that isn't treated as a "Zodiac Beast" monster. Reason= http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ophiuchus

[texaschickenlittle]

Thanks to Umbra, the Zodiac Beasts are now complete.

 

Although, for some reason, I feel there are a couple of problems:

1-I feel that Ophiuchus' effect might be overpowered.

 

2-For some reason, Sagittarus' effect just doesn't feel like the right OCG.

 

Go ahead and tell me what you think or what might need fixing.

[Umbra]

1. You can change Ophiucus to negate destruction by battle only.

 

2. Sagittarius: This card can attack your opponent's Life Points direcly. If you do, the battle damage this card inflicts is halved.

[texaschickenlittle]

Okay fixed it again, and thanks Umbra again.

 

And I realized I created a lock, which I call the Cancer-Ophiuchus lock.

[Umbra]

Actually, I found some OCG errors this time.

 

Ophiuchus: Add "monster" after "Zodiac Beast". ("Zodiac Beast" monster)

 

Sagittarius: Change "all" to "any". (any Battle Damage)

[Wyhe]

good cards with a bright future ahead,you are really a great cardmaker (100/10)

[Dark_Pride]

They're a nice new Archetype and some Spell and Trap support will be needed. The effects were nice and they're balanced. Keep up the good work!

[texaschickenlittle]

Thanks for all the imput and to Umbra for pointing out OCG errors. As for Spell and Trap support, I'm working on it; so, when I figure them out I'll post them up.

[Grayall]

Zodiac Master is a bit overpowered.

That is what this site is for. It helps us gauge and improve our cards with the help of others. Besides, yours are much different that mine.

[Nightfallen]

LMAO, I like freindship.

 

But that monster is a bit difrent in 2 ways, 1 no handshake, my favorit part, and 2, it is when it is destroyed.
