[spoiler=Loki's Cards]

According to legend, Auderzo was once known to be the bane of Asian history in ancient times. His name was said to be cursed, for when it is said aloud, the ground begins to shake and darkness falls onto the land. However, Auderzo was found only as an innocent beast in neglect and prejudice, and he proved himself of being a trusted advocate in the samurai army.

Little did the samurais of ancient China know that Auderzo, while respected as a warrior, had a curse that has plagued his existence and was known to be the reason for his fearful attacks. When there is no moon out at night, Auderzo transforms into a titan whose only purpose is to destroy anything in its way. Only those who are deep in his heart as a cyclops can control his emotions and keep him subdued until the day comes he returns to normal.

[spoiler=Zextra's Cards]

This wicked lord of the undead was born from a mutation that occurred during the Apocalypse. Though relatively weak by its own power, it feeds on the souls of the living to increase its strength. Upon collecting enough souls, it releases its stored power into the atmosphere, destroying all of its surroundings and allowing it to evolve into its final form, a demonic being of absolute evil.

Cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. Must first be Special Summoned (from your hand) by banishing 1 “Annihilation Lord, Hades Trancedigaeth” you control or in your Graveyard. While you control another Zombie-Type monster, this card cannot be destroyed by card effects. Once per turn, when this card destroys a monster by battle: You can banish 1 card in your hand; Special Summon the destroyed monster to your field in face-up Defense Position.

Maybe different requirements? I don't like multiple 1v1s with the same requirements unless they are tournament 1v1s. XD

 

And looks like this is a learning experience for the rules. XD

Sure, that sounds fine. Let me know when you put it up :D

Well, the first is just two vanillas, so unless the second set of cards are broke, I must vote for those, so let's take a look at them. Alright, 1900 beater, you can get it out with both Rabbit and Pyramid, it's DARK as well, pretty powerful vanilla here. 2700 beater with a protection if you control another Zombie, and it gets the monsters it kills? It doesn't even negate their effects. It's quite powerful, and since it's a "Must first be" monster, you can easily get it back from the Graveyard to deal a ton of damage. While Zombies are not really meta, they still spam a lot, and you can easily build a really good Deck with them, so I am gonna have to say that I take the vanillas this time around.

 

Loki gets my vote.

I agree with Zazubat in the sense that Zextra's cards are quite powerful. Although the vanilla card the advanced form relies on may not be a reliable draw, cards like foolish burial would make that less of an issue. The result is perhaps a slightly too powerful monster which musters an effect on the same level as Goyo Guardian. However as it is slightly harder to get out and requires a card sacrifice it could probably get away with just being limited. I do like the effect even if it is a little on the powerful side.

 

As for Loki, the story was a nice idea, but the bronzeback titan pretty much just equates to an overly fancy Frostosaurus, so with the bland atk/def/level aside, I'm not sure that the story is enough to carry it for me. It might not have been a requirement, but to me it goes without saying that the cards have to be usable.

 

So I'll vote for Zextra.

There isn't much to judge in Loki's cards honestly. They have RotA and Tenki respectively, and the first has Rabbit, but beyond aesthetics, they don't really clash.

Pfft, Foolish. Rescue Rabbit is where it's at, and I'm glad the Effect Monster can only drop from the hand, as it is rather unsearchable with its typing. Being a semi-nomi does bring Book of Life to the table, but it is practically a fairer Goyo.

Vote for Zextra.

2-1 in my favor. Thanks for voting.

And Thermatic, I haven't seen you in so long :o

My summer holidays have just started so I figured I'd have time to be on the forum occasionally, may join a few 1 v 1s as they pop up, even if I am a bit rusty. :)

 

...and of course, How could I forget about rescue rabbit?

I want to face you again, haha - it's been around three years since our last one xD
And yeah, Rescue Rabbit was, of course, the inspiration for making the card :P

And Karma, thanks for your vote. 3-1 to me.
Though I have to say it was a bit unfair since Loki's cards were indeed both vanillas and those are commonly looked down upon here on YCM, but maybe we can have a better contest next time.

3 years? Really that long? Time flies by so fast...we will have to have another match. 

Glad to see you're still rocking Milotic in your DP!

 

As for cards, I know most staples and some archetypes, but there are plenty I'm not familiar with so you'll have to bare with me. :D

Anyway I'll stop spamming your thread, congrats on the win.
