[Umbra]

[spoiler=The Real Post]

Oh the world will sing of a Written King

A thousand years from now

And not because he passed some laws

Or had that lofty brow

While bonny good King Umbra leads

The great game that he's on

We'll all have to slave away

For that good-for-nothin' Star

 

Incredible as he is inept

Whenever the history books are kept

They'll call him the phony king of Written Cards

A pox on the phony king of Written Cards!

 

He sits alone on a giant throne

Pretendin' he's the king

A little tyke who's rather like

A puppet on a string

And he throws an angry tantrum

if he cannot have his way

And then he calls for Mum while he's suckin' his thumb

You see, he doesn't want to play

 

Too late to be known as Star the First

He's sure to be known as Star the worst

A pox on that phony king of Written Cards!

 

While he taxes us to pieces

And he robs us of our bread

King Umbra's crown keeps slippin' down

Around that pointed head

Ah! But while there is a merry man

in Blitzer's wily pack

We'll find a way to make him pay

And steal our money back

 

The minute before he knows we're there

Ol' Blitz'll snatch his underwear

The breezy and uneasy king of Written Cards

The snivellin' grovellin'

Measly weasely

Blabberin' jabberin'

Gibberin' jabberin'

Blunderin' plunderin'

Wheelin' dealin'

Prince Star, that phony king of Written Cards

Yeah!

 

 

 

1. I don't see the point of it. Would've been more useful if it had been implemented into 2&3.

 

2. If this card is also treated as a DARK monster, you can Tribute it to Special Summon 1 "Energetic Plant" from your Deck. The Summoned monster is also treated as a DARK monster. While this card is treated as a DARK monster, you can Tribute it and remove 2 "Energetic Plant" in your Graveyard from play to destroy all cards on your opponent's side of the field and draw 1 card.

 

3. If this card is added to your hand by the effect of a LIGHT Plant-type monster that is also treated as a DARK monster, Special Summon it in face-up Defense Position. This card cannot be destroyed by battle. During the End Phase of a turn this card was Normal Summoned, destroy it.

 

Good cards overall.

[StevenBray]

not bad really, a little confusing to read at first. The changes Umbra said is all I would say.

 

7/10

 

P.S. Umbra, that "song" is a little mean but funky. How long did it take you to write that?

Mmf, if you're putting me in there, why did you do so?

 

I find it amusing that Star took Umbra's Fanfic award and badly put his name on there.

 

You'd need DNA Transplant to start up Energetic Plant. I would've preferred that a more closely related card change its Attribute.

 

Revival Plant is SO situational.

 

Grape Vine isn't bad.

 

7/10.

[Parting Shot]

I like Grape Vine. Revival Plant is too situational to be useful. If you make more, you should make one that works with RP to make it easier to actually make use of. Energetic Plant is interesting, but the end is overpowered. Once you get 1 out and treated as also DARK you can immediately get 2 in the grave and a third on the field and ta-da! Instant opponent's field nuke and free card for you. Dark Synthesis is underpowered. Even with the support it gives it really doesn't need a cost, especially not 1000 Life Points.

 

overall - 13.33/13.69

[Tabris]

Now, now, Star, you don't vie for mine rightful place, do you? No - the usurper(s) will be unseated in the moment I recover from mine lethargic condition. For now, I focus on the cards:

 

Synthesis: Too situational; it requires 1) the puttin' of LIGHT monsters and 2) the buildin' of a comprehensive win condition that relies on the darkness in the light, of which none in the current card pool suffices.

 

Energetic: I'll go with Umbra now, as tamin' a potentially explosive is difficult to do without schemin' into notoriously convoluted effect-activation sequences.

 

Revival: An absolute failure as it stands now.

 

Grape Vine: And Backfire didn't backfire, now. No - this will only entertain opposin' S/T and little else.

[Mr. Judgment Dragon]

Revival Plant is a little too situational for my liking to really be useful.

 

Energetic Plant, pretty powerful at first glance but, I suppose it can't work solely by itself so I can't particularly complain about overpoweredness there.

 

Dark Synthesis I guess is the centre card for this particular set in a way if I'm not mistaken.

 

Grape Vine is a pretty good piece of support if properly protected if I do say so myself.

 

So far, these are quite good.

[Guest Star]

It seems like no-one realizes that you can just set Revival Plant and it turns into a Marshmallon/Spirit Reaper/Gellenduo/Arcana Force 0 - The Fool.

[Parting Shot]

It seems like no-one realizes that you can just set Revival Plant and it turns into a Marshmallon/Spirit Reaper/Gellenduo/Arcana Force 0 - The Fool.

In terms of being too situational, I was more referring to the first effect than the barrier effect. The part about SS'ing itself isn't likely to fire off hardly ever, except in a deck with lots of support for this idea.

[Guest Star]

I've added some new cards.

[Parting Shot]

Insta-Seed seems underpowered. Elemental Sprite seems overpowered, maybe only draw 2 cards? The rest seem pretty good. ^_^
