[LCM] Hunter's Heath, the Ranger - Reps given for good criticism

[Huntar!]

Thats fine. I think I've seen it on cards before. But I blame the game for constantly mixing up its ocg.

Wow. This is a pretty cool card. Rather Toy Magician-esque.

I like the art and the name and the fact that its an Erath attribute is cool (there aren't enough good earth cards out there).

 

The only thing I have a problem with is the third effect. I think it should say something like 'if you do this card can attack twice this turn'. Two cards is a pretty steep cost just to attack one more monster (especially with its rather weak atk). If it could attack twice (no limits) the cost would be a bit more worth while.

 

The last effect is really cool- its good for dropping extra copies of T-Roar out of an opponent's hand or just seeing if they have an honest. The draw back of not drawing is what makes you think about using the effect- I love cards that make you think.

 

My rating- 9/10 (some minor OCG problems).

Not confident enough to even bother with the OCG so...

 

The first effect: very circumstantial

Second effect: could possibly drain your hand very quickly unless you have card of safe return so it's balanced out

Third effect: Combined with the second effect, could create problems...I'm sure that seeing both three cards and getting rid of traps is very useful though...especially with some alternative way to draw cards.

 

This is a powerful card, but there are also some serious flaws if misplayed so imo it's balanced. I'm pretty sure the OCG is off but, I'm no master...

I love this card, if this was a real Yu Gi Oh Card i would pay over $100.00 for this card, but of course that may be because I as well am a "Ranger's Apprentice" fan

[Huntar!]

lol.

 

As would I.

 

Thanks everyone.

 

Since there are complaints on the OCG, I was thinking of getting it fixed. This card's OCG is too much for even I, and I rarely ever have OCG issues. >_>

 

Shiranui gets a rep.

xD @ the glowing Attribute. It makes me wonder who swallowed Krypton and then threw up on my Earth attribute.

 

Let's do an effect breakdown, since hardly any of these effects relate to each other!

 

If you control a face-up Spellcaster-Type monster, this card is also treated as Spellcaster-Type.

 

...Alright. Assuming that this includes the hand, OH YEAH I CAN USE THIS WITH MAGICAL DIMENSION! SWEET! JUST WHAT I WANTED, A WARRIOR THAT SUDDENLY BECOMES COMPATIBLE WITH MY SPELLCASTER DECK! =DDDD

Assuming that this doesn't include the hand, and only applies to the field.... oh boy? I don't know of any cards that really care about Warriors who decide to synergize with Spellcasters. I mean, sure, the idea fits the image, but there's really no direction about it.

 

Really unnecessary effect, and there's no other effect on this card that gives this a purpose.

 

 

When this card is Normal Summoned without a Tribute, you can draw 2 cards.

 

There are very few cards that come to mind with this. Cost Down is the first one, and that requires a discard. So, you lose 2 cards (3 counting the summon of this card, but he counts on the field as gained advantage) then draw 2. A break even.

 

Another card coming to mind is Level Conversion Lab. Rolling a 2~4 and Normal Summoning him from your hand without a Tribute to let you draw 2 cards off of 1. It's advantage, and as much as I love running random tech cards to get cool combos going, I wouldn't do it just for this.

 

Next thought is Mausoleum of the Emperor. 1000 Life Points to Summon him and draw 2 cards. There are offhand decks out there that run Mausoleum, like our good friend Light & Darkness Dragon. This is a decent engine for that Deck, since we're running off a Field Spell Card and will often be holding a lot of double-Tributes to summon off with Mausoleum.

 

This effect isn't bad, but there's just few options to really pull it off with.

 

 

Once per turn, you can discard 1 card. If you do, This card can attack 1 other monster your opponent controls during your Battle Phase.

 

Isn't there a similar mechanic in Yu-Gi-Oh called "attacking twice?" Discarding a card to possibly destroy another monster. Discarding a card from your hand, in most cases, should be rewarded with a near-guaranteed destruction. Go talk to Tribute to the Doomed, Cyber Gymnast, Dark Core, Snipe Hunter (to an extent), and Raigeki Break. Getting to hit two monsters is an okay effect, but I think you could've saved yourself a lot of unnecessary wording by just saying "You can discard 1 card from your hand during your turn. If you do, this card can attack twice during this Battle Phase." I dunno, maybe there's a motive. Doubtful, though.

 

 

During your Draw Phase, instead of drawing, you can look at up to 3 cards from your opponent's hand. If any of them are Trap Cards, send them to the Graveyard.

 

Okay, the only good effect this card has. I like this one a lot, so much so that I think a single card could have just this effect and it would be great. I'm pretty sure this is supposed to be the good effect that offsets all the other wacky, random effects. Though most people (in this format) won't be holding Trap Cards in their hand, the ability to see 3 cards your opponent is holding during your turn gives you a great way to prepare for something an opponent might be setting you up for. This is a really nifty effect.

 

 

 

Overall, this card is... things. It's fine being a Level 5, anyone who said otherwise is wrong. Who the **** cares if it's level 5 or 6, it makes no impact on what the effect does. This isn't a Monarch, and it's ATK/DEF score reflect a 1-tribute monster, no matter which level it is. Something as minor as that doesn't make a bit of difference.

 

I really find this card underpowered, until the last effect. The last effect makes it really nice for seeing into the opponent's plans. All the rest of the effects just seem like you said "well, a card that could do this would be nice" and mashed them together. Seriously, I've seen much better. Picking one of these effects and creating other effects that flow with that idea would make a much better card than "Cost Down + Rivalry of Warlords + Mind Haxorz + Tyrant Dragon."

 

So, I guess I'd run this in a Mausoleum Deck. To each their own.

 

I dislike mash-ups of effects placed onto 1 card without any relation. The last effect is the only thing that interested me enough to knock it over 5/10.

 

 

So, overall, 6/10.

Thanks Skyson, someone earned a rep. ;)
