gyarados and special gyarados card

[spoiler=OCG fix for Gyrados]

This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card can only be Special Summoned by Tributing 1 "Magikarp" monster you control. This card is not affected by Spell Cards.

 

I changed the "Special Summon from the deck" part because that would make this card extremely OPed. Think, tribute a wimpy fish to find a monster from the deck that can do ALOT of damage. Too OPed.

 

 

[spoiler=OCG Fix-Dragon Rage]

This card can only be activated if you control 3 or more "Gyarados" monsters. Destroy every Spell Card on the field.

 

 

The pics are bad, which is a shame, because if they were not pixellated, they would be really cool.

[align=center]okay, I'm not going to say, 1/10 and not give a reason why, here's why:

 

-Images are very blurry and based on pop culture (lowers originality)

-OCG errors:

"Magikarp"

Graveyard

1

Deck

Spell Cards

-'pokemon' isn't really a sub-type.

- ATK and DEF are way too high, since when have you seen a card that powerful.

-Grammar errors, spaces after full stops

-effect is simple and boring.

 

Advice:

-Read official OCG thread

-Revise English grammar and language skills

-spend more than 30 seconds making a card

-find appropriate, clear images.[/align]

[spoiler=Activate your PM account, in the mean time:]

You can refer back to this PM any time;

 

This is how I make my cards:

 

[spoiler=[b]Finding the image[/b]]

I firstly find a good image

You can find suitable images on sites such as these...

http://wall.alphacoders.com/index.php?s=Fantasy&su=Warrior

http://www.wizards.com/magic/

http://www.thinktankstudios.com/creatures.html

 

If you use a site such as these, credit them after your card.

 

For example, I will choose the image;

[spoiler=This one]

http://www.thinktankstudios.com/images/creatures/Finished/Stalkveng.jpg

Stalkveng.jpg

 

 

Instead of saving it and uploading via a site, just right click the image, at the bottom of the menu that just appeared, it should say 'properties'.

[spoiler=Like this:]

Then another smaller window will pop-up (i think you would know this). In the menu there will be a 'Address URL', copy and paste that into the YCMaker Image box.

[spoiler=This]

This is an example of the card after pasting the image URL in.

And that's how to get your image onto the card, now in the next subject, it will be about filling out the 'Background Information'.

 

 

[spoiler=[b]Background Information[/b]]

This category is about the name, type, attribute and idea for final effect.

 

Finding a good name;

Look at the picture of the card and try pointing out noticeable features, in the one I have chosen, you can see it is in a graveyard, on a foreign alien planet and it is quite big, so this monster is a high level alien giant.

But for names, you can either make something like;

-The Frightening Beast

OR

-Skalashak, the Terrifying Beast

 

However I will choose the name Ladon, which is a greek mythological beast, and put some big scary words on the end

 

For its Attribute, look at the colours, elemental hints, or overall image. this is obviously a DARK monster.

 

Type can be harder, look for wings, swords, fins, fangs, fire, all these can be hints towards types, this card is a mix between a Fiend and beast, but fiends are scarier and more evil, like this image.

 

It will look like this with most of it filled in.

[spoiler=[b]Effect[/b]]

 

The effect should be based on image and name, try to match the name to the image, and effect to image and name.

 

For example, because of the Graveyard nearby, this would have some reviving effects.

 

Rough OCG plan:

-Special summon from graveyard with 2000 ATK or less

-because of which must skip battle

-and lose 500 ATK

 

OCG fixed up:

Once per turn, during your Main Phase 1, you can Special Summon 1 monster from your Graveyard with 2000 ATK or less, if you do this, skip your next Battle Phase and decrease this cards ATK by 500.

 

That's the effect pretty much sorted out :)

Now, putting all that into the card,

[spoiler=[b]Lastly, ATK and DEF[/b]]

 

Pretty simple this one, make sure its of a worthy balance and is looking appropriate for the card, don't OP or UP. A list of average ATK and DEF stats.

1 : 300

2 : 600

3 : 1400

4 : 1800

5-6 : 2300

7-8 : 2800

9 : 3000

10+ : 4000

 

*there are exceptions to monster with higher ATK and DEF, but these often require huge tributes or costs, like 'Wicked Dreadroot'

[spoiler=This:]

The highest original ATK i have seen on a card is 4000.

remember if a card has a certain Effect or has a Stat that is considerably high, lower the other drastically, eg:

ATK: 0 DEF:2200

ATK:1900 DEF: 0

ATK: 3000 DEF: 100

 

This card, because it loses 500 ATK, should have a considerably high original ATK, but not too high to still give it an advantage, lets say 2800. Its DEF should be a lot lower because of the effect and its mainly an attacking monster. so about 300.

Viola, a finished card, it's not that good, because i just made a rough one, but it is just part of this card making concept scheme.

 

 

 

.

 

 

This took me a while to create, and would be nice to have some appreciation, I hope this helps, and if thee is anything else you want to look at or help with, ask via PM, i will most likely reply straight away or soon after.

 

:P have fun whether you use this or not.

[spoiler=[b]The card with HOLO and GOLD sticker[/b].]

This is the card as I would post it, after editing
