[spoiler=Card A]

cqCVM8s.jpg

"Skull Servant" + 1 LIGHT monster
You can Special Summon this card (from your Extra Deck) by banishing the above cards you control or from your Graveyard. (You do not use "Polymerization".) While you control this face-up card and "King of the Skull Servant", Level 3 or lower DARK monsters you control gains 500 ATK and DEF and cannot be targeted by card effects, also this card cannot be targeted for an attack. You can only Special Summon 1 "Reaper of the King" per turn.

[/spoiler]

 

[spoiler=Card B]

Tiny Shielder

Warrior-Type/EARTH

Level 2

Once per turn, when a Level 2 or lower monster is Normal Summoned or flipped face-up on your side of the field: You can add 1 monster with the same name as that monster from your Deck to your hand, also change this card's battle position. You must control this face-up card to activate and to resolve this effect. During your opponent's Battle Phase: You can discard 1 Level 2 or lower monster; for the rest of this Battle Phase, Level 2 and lower monsters you control cannot be destroyed by battle or by card effects while you control this card (this is a Quick Effect). You can only use this effect of "Tiny Shielder" once per turn.

500/1200

I vote Card B. But in fact, it's also slow. It's too easy to be run over if you set it. You can Normal Summon it to ensure that you could use its effect to protect itself and search something during your next turn, but then your opponent will Attack you as they please and still able to remove it with a non-destruction (Number 50). Card A is just too weak. It's main problem is that the deck it try to support is the weak deck even in casual games, even with LS monsters, the deck still lack the speed to put the number of Servants in the Graveyard, King is unsearchable, and this card require King to be on the field and reduce the number of Servants in Graveyard? ugh...

Wait a sec

First I believe Card B could search itself upon Summoning and subsequently switch itself to Def Pos, so it's not that bad.

 

the deck still lack the speed to put the number of Servants in the Graveyard, King is unsearchable

And I believe you haven't seen this

So Zazi, I think rejected this for now is better for both cards.

 

@Lera, Your vote will be accepted once you response.

Card A:

It's a free +1, supports a monster that usually has 3000+ ATK with an ATK boost AND protection, plus it is LIGHT for BLS/Chaos Sorcerer plays. At worst, it can be used as free Tribute or Rank1/Downerd fodder. At best, it will turn King of Skull Servants into a royal pain to deal with, and virtually without costing you any card (yes, it costs monsters from the grave, but that doesn't affect your card advantage).

 

Even if Skull Servants are not relevant right now, and/or teching LIGHTs for the sake of this could compromise the deck's consistency, a monster that Summons itself as a +1 is still questionable, and in my opinion it is better to avoid those kind of monsters.

 

Card B:

It looks fair. Best played through "Reinforce Truth", turns Level 2 or lower monsters into searchers of copies of themselves, which is a cool perk if you are running cards such as Alien Ammonite, BW - Blizzard, Ryko or Racoons, and it can be quite durable with its Quick Effect.

 

 

I Vote for Card B.

No it can't, it works like T.G. Hyper Librarian, it won't trigger on its own Summon.

 

Alright, rejected for now.

Since when we have that monster? O.o Alright, now that the deck no longer having any problem with the speed and number of Servants, banishing a Servant and dropping King's ATK by 500 to give it a hexproof suddenly sounds better, and since Card B remain too slow, I'll shift my vote to Card A.

I vote Card B

Card A: While I like the flavor of supporting King of the Skull Servants I am a little to conscernded with the amount of protection the King gets. The fact that it gives the king protection from being targeted and then keeps itself from being attacked is a little unnerving. Its a free monster that boost and strenghthens a monster that should already be very strong. Use to of these and burial from a different dimension and you have one King sized problem.

 

Card B: The only level 2 centered deck I can think of that would use this are the raccoons which this card seems somewhat slow for but free searchers are free seaches. There are some funny cards that I would think are nice to combo with this like Batel or Agent Earth which makes this a weirdly fun and gimmicky card.

I vote for card A. Card B is just too slow, and while Reinforce Truth can help it, I don't think the cards are good as an engine. If only it could search itself and and change position upon Normal Summoning, it would be the great card that worth the space of some decks. Meanwhile, I don't see card A as a powerful card, at least not this format. Non-target removal is really easy to make, Torrential, Dark Hole, Mirror Force, and with the new power named Raigeki in every single deck out there, I think the LIGHT requirement and 1 Servant banishing is a pain for the deck more than benefit, but at least it's playable and not so slow.

Card 2 is better.  If you are going to have a picture, it should be realistic for a yugioh card.  Card one clearly didn't try. Card B understoof the diificulty so gets my vote

Sorry, I can't accept this vote due to how it doesn't talk about the actual card. Please re-write your answer to reflect that.

That makes no sense.  The picture is part of the actual card.  Please re-write your non-acceptance to reflect that.

When Zazu mentions actual card, he means speaking about the effect and its design; not whether the pic is realistic for a Yugioh card.

I think this was clarified in the rules, but if not, it will be added now.

Yeah, of course the image is part of the card, but if that's all you're going to comment about, I cannot use your review. It's like reviewing a video game and only talking about the graphics, you're missing the more important part of the product.

Card A gives frightening levels of sturdiness to king, but at the same time, it just doesn't feel like it does much.

Card B is something I am a big fan of. The repeatable search forms an engine with either cardcar d or piper, and yet the fact that it is once per turn, and only works on normal summon, makes it much more difficult to abuse. Furthermore, the last effect adds stability to protect it, easily fueled by the draw engine it helps create.

Gotta go with card B
