[M.D.] Experimental OCG Part 3 (Geminis)

[Max Darkness]

This, the third exhibition of my OCG changes that I'm using to cut down Monster Effect lengths focusses on Geminis. Since they all have the same effect, why can't them being treated as Normal Monsters be taken as read; as an integral part of being a '/Gemini]' monster?

Please comment on both the cards and the OCG.

Enjoy.

for Confit Angel, you might want to change 1 thing

"Once per turn, you can select 1 Gemini Monster you control. During that turn's Battle Phase, it can attack once again, in addition to its normal attack(s)"

For that monster you select, you might want to give it an atk limit so the multi attacks don't set up OTKs too much

Well, considering most monsters will only get 2 attacks through its effect; the only exception being "Chthonian Emperor Dragon", which would end up with 3, exactly what this is designed to abuse. And since this needs to have a Gemini-esque Summon to gain the effect, it is quite a hard effect to actually activate.

I'll give this a bump for comments.

[center]I'll leave out the numberical ratings as I feel they are not worth a lot outside of contests.

[b]Phoenix Cherub[/b]
Mhh, for some reason I have the feeling you slightly edited this one. Anywho I quite like it now.

[b]Phoenix Seraph[/b]
Urg. I must say this card really disapoints me. I mean. It's OP like hell. While being able to stand on itsown without its effect. It's extra effects really make swarming so very easy. I mean, Sp. Sum 1 Gemini during each of your opponent's End Phases? Easy Sync/Xyz anyone? Even with its limitation it means you can basicly return any Gemini that blew up before. And also Gemini Sum it aswell.

I strongly suggest making it Semi-restricted or make it during your own End Phase.

[b]Vulcan Princess[/b]
Ah, I do see quite some use with 'Evocator Chevalier' and 'Supervise'. Perhaps its ATK could be a tad lower, but even without it's a fine card.

[b]Confit Angel[/b]
Generic Gemini Synchro, nothing too special. Though I like how it needs to be semi-Gemini summoned.
Just 1 question. The extra Summoning thing is just once, right? Otherwise it's a good card.

[b]Bloodsworn Assailant[/b]
Really nice, I see loads of use with this combined with basicly any Lvl 6 or lower Gemini.

Overal nice cards though Seraph should be ballanced some more.[/center]

I thought it was exactly the same, but what the heck.

Subtle changes have been made.

"Evocator Chevalier" is a 1900/1200, so this has lost 500 DEF in return for a more tactical effect. And it is supposed to be a counterpart to "Chevalier", so 1900 makes sence.

Yes, once it's gained its second effect, the trigger effect is invalid and cannot be activated again.
