[I Hate Snatch Steal]

edit: Playtesting has proven these cards to be unsalvageable. Halving battle damage removed an Air Neos OTK. Also making the copy effect an ignition effect stopped Destiny HERO Plasma lock during the opponent's turn (some of those erratas are not shown here). These were legitimate balance issues. However after they were dealt with, there aren't any more useful HEROs to copy for 1 turn. This is going to be locked but feel free to check out another one of my threads if you like.

Design Notes:

These cards allow one to make use of the variety of hard to summon HERO monsters with good effects. They cannot copy Masked HEROs because that would lead to always declaring "Masked HERO Dark Law" and I don't think that card needs more support.

 

edit: going to address a balance issue with air neos. Most likely by halving battle damage dealt with an effect is copied
