[spoiler=Origin: (AGM)]Volt Satellite

A group of EARTH Thunder-type monsters. The majority of their members are level 4 Ritual monsters that are ritual summoned off quick-play spells. The non-ritual monsters tend to search and recycle while the rituals have burn effects and can attack directly. Also, their quick plays are even more wonky in that they can be activated from the Grave by banishing itself and a various amount of other cards.

 

 

 

I love Rituals. Also, I love Rituals. Also, I seem to be making a lot of them. Thoughts?

*EDITED*

 

Arc-V needs a Ritual Dimension. They have Standard, Xyz, Fusion, and Synchro. Yet they ignore Rituals like Nekroz was never a Tier 0 deck.

 

Overall, great cards. They are adaptable to the gamestate, which I love in a card. Quickplay Rituals are DESPERATELY needed in Yu-Gi-Oh. Komoney just had to kick down Nekroz for Kozmo sales, ugh. It's also easy to make Level 4 Xyz with these guys.

 

Cards like Mystic Wok can also be used in correspondence, since it is a Quickplay Spell Card that requires tribute. These cards play defensive at first, before dishing out major damage.

 

Like Sakura said, check back on some of the wording. I can understand the meaning, but it's always better to make it more clear.

 

I give 7/10. Jk. XD

Good Ritual Monsters, i would love to play with this archetype.

Any particular reason why you think the cards are great (the effects are nicely designed, they're balanced enough, etc)? Not trying to be hard on you, but you kind of have to explain your thought process with regards to the card's designs due to the AC (doesn't have to be much, but just a short piece of reasoning will suffice).

 

I hate dragging rag's name through the mud again, but back then, we had a member who made repeated comments like this (and they weren't necessarily helpful).

 

Same goes for the above user (I've told you this in the other two threads).

 

-----

That in mind, I'm not fond of Weapon being a 26/18 monster that effectively burns the opponent for its attack every time it damages them (coupled with the Rituals being very reminiscent of the Nekroz ones, barring the need for exact Levels). Lower its stats a bit and nerf the ATK damage thing. 

 

Battery is essentially Shurit/Ritual Raven for these; I'm assuming you meant to say EARTH monster with its SS effect. 

 

Laser should reveal the Thunder monster, so the opponent knows you have drawn an eligible card to trigger its graveyard SSing. It won't necessarily change anything, but that's basically a check to make sure you can do it. (Heart of the Underdog and some other stuff do similar things)

 

Satellite Strike is worded awkwardly, but I understand it burns the opponent for 500 x however many monsters you didn't target, then blows up the opponent's board. So basically, you decide between burning them for a sizable amount or destroying stuff, or some happy medium. 

 

 

In all, I know this is an AGM prompt but these things do have the potential to be problematic, especially with Shell pumping their stats up when they direct attack (and yeah, Generator getting pluses off of Weapon).

Changes are being made, thanks for the comment! Is there a better way I could word Strike? Also, how is it problematic dealing burn damage equal to its ATK, other than with Generator, or is that just it?

[Dova]

Bump.
