The Highlander Posted September 17, 2020 Report Share Posted September 17, 2020 Let us take this step by step. 1.) Code Programmer: Admittedly a very strong 2+ turn card, however I am wondering if this being able to permanently steal, even if being used from the hand, is not pushing it a little too far. Usually these stealing cards are a little more restricted and I do not see why this card should be able to permanently take control. My suggestion would be to make it change control until the End Phase, while prohibiting to attack with it and remove this restrictions (except that it only lasts until the end phase) if this card is used from the field. 2.) Code Charger: The card looks fine. 3.) Code Translator: A very strong support card, which is also a strong Formud Skipper target. This card definitely improves the powerlevel of the Code Talker archtype. I would say the card is definitely still not pushing it too far, despite being very powerful. 4.) Crosscode Talker, Syncode Talker and EXcelcode Talker: These look decent, especially that (unlike some of the other generic ED Cyberse monsters) these are accessible and actually do something (unlike Firewall Exceed Dragon). That being said, I wonder if this is really what the Code Talker archtype aims for, from what I have seen thus far the aim is to Link ladder consecutively (while abusing Cynet Codec) and then Extra Link with multiple Code Talkers, so these would force one to abandon that plan, on the other hand these actually buff Firewall Dragon Darkfluid, although these should already aim to OTK or at the very least finish the game as fast as possible, so that point is only valid if one ladders through these, which hardly seems worth the effort, when Darkfluid is not more than a glorified Apollousa. I am honestly not sure if these are more than gimmicky 1-offs. 5.) Code EXceed Unit: A glorified "One Time Passcode", which can Xyz and perform as a searcher during a later turn. The card definitely looks like a solid extender. 6.) Go Forward!: This card being a Trap makes it a pretty awkward topdeck later in the game, although at that point it is at its strongest. Since this card being the only card one controls and being mostly an opponent's turn card I wonder if this card would survive negation very often, if it would even be alive. Since this card does not enforce using all monsters for that Link Summon one can actually build an entire board with it, making the restriction reasonable. I have seen cards like this one quite often and it never made the cut, I would suggest at the very least reducing the restriction to controlling no monsters, especially since all the Cynet Continuous Spell cards would make this card a nightmare to use and it should hardly be an issue if it cannot be used as an immediate oppresive extender.
