OH. We send a MESSAGE to Scrooge? Darn. Since I've already started posting my results, I suppose there's no use in deleting them. But I should also send them to Scrooge...

 

And I'm having trouble finding all of the entries...

Because you didn't use your Spell card you entered earlier (but changed), these cards are, basically, useless. What do Race Counters and Slow Counters do? Also, you need to capitalize the first letters of your effects. The effects themselves have OCG errors (like "summoned in any way" or "in any fashion" instead of just "summoned"). They don't help each other, either, since the counters' effects aren't stated on the card themselves like they should. One more thing I don't like: tortoises favor land, NOT water! I kind of like the pictures, though. Heh heh. A Rabbid.

Dang! That red knight card is cheap! Double his Attack Points while the other card is in the Graveyard? Considering the many ways you could get your own cards into the graveyard, it's just too much power even for two tributes. Blue Knight Fushiso is pretty good, though. I think they should say "During your Main Phase, if "Knight Soandso" is in your Graveyard, you may blahblahblah once per turn", which I guess makes that a small error.

Hey! You made Ultimo cards, based on that manga by that guy who did Shaman King (I'm not good with Japanese names) and Stan Lee. They're strange but also useable, provided you can stop the other from attacking. "Targetted" actually has ONE T, but meh, minor spelling error.

"Dark Dragon of the Power"? Saying THE Power sounds more like Engrish than English to me, unfortunately. The Dark Dragon also isn't a very good card. If he targets a weak, defense position monster, there's a chance he does nothing? At least give him 3200 if his attacks can be negated like that. "Light and Dark Fused" should be a Continuos card. And a very cheap one at that. There are some OCG and grammar errors in the cards, which you should look over. Also, what are the chances you'll use both Fiends and Fairies in your deck to summon both of these things together?

These Synchros are really good, I must admit! Only they're hard to pull off because of the use of counters, which appear sloooowwwlllly. Otherwise, they're well done and I didn't catch a single OCG error.

They're good cards, but I don't understand how they SUPPORT each other. One has to attack the other and neither of them ever win? So you use Creature Swap, I guess, then keep mashing the Slayer against the Dragon until you have a bunch of attack, then use oa card to shift Dragon into the other position and murder it, right? That's a bit complicated, bit at least it works.

Though I don't see the opposite-tude of a tiger and a dragon (tiger and wolf might have been better), their effects are good in a cheap way. If Flaming Yin Tiger attacks directly, it can add 2400 attack to one of your other monsters? If you're dueling with 4000 life points it can potentially spell doom for your opponent in 1-3 turns. That being said, there aren't too many OCG errors in them and they're otherwise solid.

The way these cards help each other is kind of interesting to me. But if the Unoin Tsunami is equipped to Storm, how does Storm help HER? That aside, they're a great combo. But the card text is bad because you Capitalized Every Word! And Tsunami's effect text reads that whatever STORM is equipped to gains those abilities! How does that work?

These cards are actually pretty good. They're powerful, opposites, AND work together! That's every qualification rule! I also see no OCG errors...or do I? Stand-By should be Standby. But that's all I see. It's also a very small error.

These awesomely-great cards have effects that wouldn't seem to work together as much as some others in this contest, so I take minimal points off for that. Apart from that, these cards are really great, both together and with other cards.

I know the entry has been changed, but isn't the contest already over?

I'm not sure how fairy and dragon are opposites. Isn't that Fairy and Fiend? Also, if I saw these two cards, I wouldn't really think they're opposites. But still, I think they can work well together. There are some really weird OCG errors, too, like "remuved" instead of "removed" and capitalizing the word "remains".

The fact that the first card's picture looks quite revealing "frightens" me, since I'm using a SCHOOL computer. But besides that, having just these two on the field can create a hard-to-keep lockdown effect. The fact that only their LOWER stats increase kind of hurts them, since the higher values were already so low, but if you have a way to get cards from the graveyard effectively they're a VERY good combo. And no OCG errors!

These cards aren't complete opposites, but hey, they're still great cards. There aren't any OCG errors, and they'd be very usable cards even in today's metagame. I'm not sure how them giving your monsters another attribute helps in the long run, though.

 

Grade: 17/20

 

14.serpent241

 

I think these are alright cards. A bit hard to use, but alright. They'd be hard to use in the metagame, I think, which is bad. Since they boost each others' stats, they appear to be opposite-like. There's only some of the most minor OCG errors in the world on these cards.

 

Grade: 16/20

 

15.Apocalypse Cards

 

Unless you can somehow change the attributes of every opponent's monster (and even that wouldn't help one of these monsters), these cards aren't too usable. There are also some OCG errors, but not huge ones. If there levels were 4 they might be more useful, but being level 5 renders them less useful. They do show effort, though.

I really think I should have read Scrooge's post more carefully, since now AFTER THE CONTEST IS OVER people are fixing their cards. Anyways, since I have some free time I'll judge the other cards, and because I've already posted some of the judging there's not much use in taking that out. :I

 

But even if Doctor J has changed his entry, Kendo Fish won't go back and judge it, for said reason.
