~Red~ Posted May 28, 2013 Report Share Posted May 28, 2013 Card A: A monster formed by the vengeful souls of those who passed away in battle. I like how you incorporated the flavor text. It is a nice hand trap sort of monster, making an easy recover from a potentially dangerous situation. It has a Kalut-like effect, but isn't as sneaky or underhanded, but also allowing it to stand up to some bigger Xyz Monsters. You could probably have kept the same ATK and been okay, but I don't think the extra 200 should matter too much. Card B: This legendary dragon is a powerful engine of destruction. Virtually invincible, very few have faced this awesome creature and lived to tell the tale. I love the picture you used. It adds a flare to the card that isn't there with the original. The materials are slightly limiting but still allow use in a few decks, like fairies, photons, lightsworns, and hieratics. Although it is mainly designed to be used in a Normal Blue Eyes centric deck. It really doesn't have anything that pops out at me though, and I don't see it getting too much use. I vote for Card A, but I enjoyed both cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silent Luminus Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 Hmm...this is tough. While Card A wins in terms of usability, being a flexible hand-trap, that's also what I don't like about it. imo, hand-traps create mindgames that are bad for the game, especially if they can cause that much of an impact. Swordstalker not only has a solid 2200 body, but also has the effect of something like Honest or Kalut (since they lose their monster anyways). Its ATK boost effect is good. Card b isn't as versatile, obviously, but does a good job at what it's designed to do. First of all it has a nice Neo Galaxy-Eyes-like effect in the form of a universal Shrink for your opponent. Then it turns its -1 summon into a +0 due to being able to immediately revive a Blue-Eyes (presumably). And its destruction effect is a nice plus that's slow enough to not be broken. So my vote is for Card b this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ren✧ Posted May 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 Card A: 1 Card B: 1 Thanks for voting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zazubat Posted May 31, 2013 Report Share Posted May 31, 2013 Card A might not have many uses, though a good thing is that it can easily be used in Archfiends as it's a Level 6 Fiend that banishes, which makes it really good. I do think the second card is pretty damn powerful, since it can quite easily make a Blue-Eyes engine, by detaching Blue-Eyes and grabbing it again, and if you have 1 detached and 2 in the Graveyard, you pretty much got it, and since that monster can attack, you can deal aobut 6000 damage. I don't like that design. Plus, it has an opponent nuke as well. So Card A it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sora1499 Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 Card A seems like terrible design: it's a hand trap saku on a mid-sized level 6 DARK body.. Quite a few problems right there. It also has a honest-esque secondary effect. In short, I feel like it rewards you way too much just for drawing into it. Card B has fantastic flavor and artwork, so props to that. I don't feel that it is too overpowered, given that it requires you to run vanillas and it's a rank 8. It's not perfect design, in that it can OTK quite easily by grabbing the detached vanilla, but I like it more than Card A. Vote to Card B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gawayn Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 Looks like I is the deciding vote. I can agree with what has been said about Card A, obviously more useful, but also touching on OP, there isn't much of a drawback to the card, and with the added ATK it is slightly worrying. However the other card isn't too usable, or at least not to the point where it would be of actual use since it requires Normal Monsters to be used. But when it is, it opens up for some OTKs, which I have always hated. The art is nice as well, but I find the added part of the name to be unneeded. I can see how Card A is using the flavor text which I like to see, especially on retrains. My vote goes to Card A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathanael D. Striker Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 3-2 Card A Card A wins. And if I deduced this correctly, Card A is Renegade and Card B is Zextra. Reason I think this: Zextra is a major Blue-Eyes fan from what I can tell. XD So, am I right about that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though it would make sense considering Zextra usually uses his own template which is a nice, small, and sleek one (something like Card B ).

Zextra Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 @ Striker - I take it that you got that vibe from my Blue-Eyes topic in TCG not long ago? :3 gg, Renegade. I guess I was right when I said I hated my card xD I was looking to somehow make Azure-Eyed Silver Dragon a bit faster and combine it with something Burst Stream of Destruction-esque. Of course something like that could never turn out well. We should go again sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
