Earthbound Immortals, but what's the second? Max, are you going to apply for a sticky? The NDL meets the requirements.

[Max Darkness]

Different religions, different gods, same time period. And the "Earthbound Immortals" are not true gods, they're the servants of one that manifest as deities.

[Master White]

Oh, I see, a genius of yugioh which is holding the strength back. Well, I just have to say thanks for all your help. @Necro, whats EG? Also, you know what stinks, being caught up in a series. I'm on episode 104 in japanese, but english subtitles, and now they don't have a new one, I'm mad. lol. but I guess I have to wait. Also, I have all the 5ds dragons, except for Black Feather dragon and Red Dragon Archfiend.

[Headmaster Monokuma]

I just remembered what EG was. It's the Egyptian Gods, hah, stupid me. Forgeting them in all of their godly awesomeness. At least their Anime versoins. The new EG's suck. Ra got nerfed worse then any of the three.

[Max Darkness]

We'll have to wait to see what'll happen with Osiris, but yes, "Ra" was made utterly useless, with an effect that cannot outstrip the "Monarch" Archtype.

 

Think about it. If you Tribute 3 monsters, you can get either a giant flaming dragon with no support (due to its DIVINE nature), an ATK of around 5000 (and an opponent now with 100 LP) and a near-unusable effect (since you need to pay 1000 LP, that you don't have).

 

OR

 

Three 2400 ATK beatsticks with the ability to clear your opponent's field.

 

 

I can sense a complete anticlimax if the legal gods are used in the anime. Imagine the big villain has just drawn the winged dragon and recites the ancient chant:

 

"Great beast of the sky, please hear my cry. Transform thyself from orb of light and bring me victory in this fight. Envelop the desert with your glow and cast your rage upon my foe. Unlock your powers from deep within so that together we may win. Appear now in this Shadow Game as I call your name,

 

Winged Dragon of Ra!"

 

 

Then pays all but 100 of his Life Points to raise "Ra"'s ATK to 3900. Attacks and destroys the opponent's monster.

 

Opponent's Turn

 

Special Summons one of "Cyber Dragon", "The Tricky" or "Quickdraw Synchron" then Tributes it for either "Zaborg the Thunder Monarch" or "Caius the Shadow Monarch". Both of their effects will remove "Ra" from the field, followed by a direct attack.

 

 

What you witness is (according to Yami Marik) the most powerful monster in Duel Monsters defeated by a Level 6, 2400 ATK DARK Fiend. Pretty generic and embarrasing. And since it now can't be Special Summoned, it's stuck in the Graveyard or RFP Zone...

[Shadow Zero]

EG also could mean Emperor Gods guys.

I don't like the EI a lot' date=' they've taken all the glory from the EG.

Relinquished says hai.

[Master White]

I see, thanks. Why are they messing with Ra, making it weak, Ra is my fav card. Winged dragon of Ra, that is. I just need to find it in mint condition, thats all.

[Max Darkness]

@ Shadow: The what?

[Headmaster Monokuma]

Ra is my favorite too. That's why if I ever get a copy of it, I'll make my friends let me use it's unnerfed effect. They can't say no to me. They can't.

[Master White]

Yea, one problem with me, and I alway's stick to my promises. I made a promise to him that I would quit collecting yugioh cards if I pulled a Winged Dragon of Ra. So, that is why I haven't stop playing, either. So, if I pull that someday, then eventually I'll be very very happy, but if I buy it, I will still be happy. If I get though, that means I have to stop wasting money on cards, you see. But I will still play yugioh, just do not buy cards.

[Max Darkness]

Beast Rage. Another nail in the coffin of RFP Decks, the only thing standing in the way of the current meta.

[Headmaster Monokuma]

Darn. That isn't good. I can't believe it, all they want to exist is Synchros. Fusions are dead, rituals died before they did. I can't believe it. Also, Max, do you think your going to apply for a sticky?

[DeathSDelano]

@ Kenta: Accepted.

 

@ DSD: Murkrow evolves via Dusk Stone' date=' not Level-Up. And Outrage confuses the user after a couple of turns. Dragon Rush and Dragon Claw do not.

 

@ XzY: There's "Stealth Bird", not direct attack but effect damage. And the only non-"Blackwing" direct attacking Winged Beast monsters are the two "Earthbound Immortal" monsters, "Aslla Piscu" and "Wiraqocha Rasca". What you might want to do is to find the highest-ATK Level 1 Winged Beast and equip it with "Opti-Camoflauge Armour" then use "Gravity Bind" to prevent your opponent's monsters from fighting back, while powering up the equipped monster.

i knew about murkrow but if he uses a dusk stone before it gets to the lv to learn mean look than you cant really get it. i would think that outrage would have w/e it is killed in 1 - 2 hits so you can switch if needed.

[Max Darkness]

More specifically, "Blackwings". "Lightsworns" are slain by RFP Decks, but with that, "Blackwings" will be able to abuse it. Simply summoning "Blackwing Armed Wing" (you know, the one that inflicts Piercing and then powers up if it does?!) with 10 RFPed "Blackwings" will mean a 4300 ATK Piercer. How fair is that?!

 

Konami are more obsessed with Synchros than they ever were with Fusions, it's quite startling.

 

And I'll sound like a novice when I say this; but what exactly is a sticky?

 

 

@ DSD: I wouldn't use Mean Look anyway. In my view Honchkrow is an attacking Pokemon, so mine knows Dark Pulse, Psychic, Heat Wave and Air Cutter.

[Headmaster Monokuma]

You know how there are threads that are always at the top of the page? Well, the term for those pages is stickied pages. Commonly refered to as "stickys". That sure isn't fair, not one bit. I miss having Ritual monsters that obliterate. Reliquished has always been one of my favorite cards. Now I can use it again.

i knew that but im just saying mean look because he has perish song on his honchkrow to make sure that the other pokemon may faint no other reason

[Max Darkness]

I guess there's no harm in trying.

 

The problem always was that "Relinquished" and "Shinato, King of a Higher Plane" were the only powerful Ritual monsters. All the early ones were Normal monsters with very low ATK and DEF. For example, "Dokugurider" (long-term holder of the "Most Underpowered Card" title) was a Level 6 with 1900 ATK. "Javelin Beetle", the only Ritual Insect, was Level 8 with only 2450 ATK. 2450! On a Level 8 Ritual, with no effect! No wonder people quickly saw Rituals as underpowered wastes.

 

The same was true of the early fusions. Most, like "Labyrinth Tank" (which would be awesome as a re-worked effect monster, see below) had average or slightly low ATK and DEF for their Level (Level 7, 2400 ATK and DEF in "L.T"'s case) but no effects and often completely unrelated and bizarre Fusion materials. The tank requires "Cannon Soldier" (fair enough) and "Giga-Tech Wolf", a Level 4 FIRE Machine with 1200 ATK (stupid I know).

 

Now, fusions like "Black Skull Dragon" make sense. Zombie Demon + Evil Dragon = Demonic Skull Dragon. In my view, Walking Tank + Cyborg Wolf does not equal Evil Tank. What were they thinking? However, then came the "Elemental Heroes" and Contact Fusion, making Fusion Summoning easy and viable, since the Fusion Materials were shared and all related.

 

That never happened for Ritual monsters. They never got an Archetype focussing on them. And now Synchros have numerous archetypes focussing on them, which is why they are now so easy to summon.

 

 

[spoiler=[b]Labyrinth Tank[/b]]

[align=center]Think "Drilloid" gone evil...

 

[/align]

 

Effect: "Drilloid" + 1 DARK Machine-Type monster

If this card attacks a Defense Position monster, you can destroy that monster with this card's effect. (Damage calculation is applied normally,) This card inflicts Piercing Damage. If you control a different face-up DARK Machine-Type monster, this card gains 400 ATK. When this face-up Defense Position card is attacked, if the attacking monster's original DEF is lower than this card's original ATK, destroy both this card and that monster without applying damage calculation. Once, you can remove from play 1 of the Fusion Material monsters used to Summon this card in your Graveyard to have this card gain that monster's effect, until your opponent's End Phase.

 

 

[Headmaster Monokuma]

Fair enough Max. Relequished is, and always will be, one of my favorite cards ever. I never had a Polymerization, so no fusions for me. I never got to see any of them in action other then in the anime. To be honest, after Jaden, I never want to use Elemental Heroes again. If only Jaden didn't make me mad. I like Zane, maybe that's why I want a Cyberdark themed deck. Anyway, Elemantal Mistress Dirodo is a Ritual monster, had low stats, and it's effect wasn't great. It's treated as a few different types, the ones need for Fuh-ran-ica-zan, or something like that, but beyond that, it isn't helpful. I see what you mean.

[Max Darkness]

The real annoyance is that making a Ritual Archetype would not be difficult. They'd just need the same Ritual Spell that could be recycled.

[Headmaster Monokuma]

I bet I could try to make one with the Card Maker. If I wasn't so terrible with OCG I would. It upsets me that they forget some of the best cards because of the dang Synchros. Max, If I posted a few cards, would you mind to fix the OCG on them. It's important to me, I have something I want to do with them.

[Shadow Zero]

@ Shadow: The what?

*facepalms* Emperor Gods Max! You know' date=' the fouler, darker, and more ancient counterparts of the Egyptian Gods?

Darn. That isn't good. I can't believe it, all they want to exist is Synchros. Fusions are dead, rituals died before they did. I can't believe it. Also, Max, do you think your going to apply for a sticky?

Ritauls are not dead! It's just that so few of them are actually truly useful! DX

HIS EYES UNCOVERED!!!

 

Just so that you guys know, I Run Reilnquished. So, if you are going up against me in a duel...TREMBLE IN FEAR! :twisted: *laughs evilly*

[DeathSDelano]

what about Lynchrope (the werewolf ritual guy)

 

when he does battle damage to your opponent he than inflicts damage for every normal monster in the Graveyard

 

or even better he can just be put in a genimi deck because genimis cost as normal monsters in the graveyard

[Max Darkness]

@ Shadow: I could facepalm you because they are actually called the "Wicked Gods"...

 

 

@ Everyone: I am now a 4000 poster; and have got the set to celebrate: http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/thread-197408.html

 

I've got three new archetypes, a trio of showcased archetypes and numerous support cards and singles. Enjoy.

[Headmaster Monokuma]

I'll take a look Max, but don't expect a comment in the thread. It'll be here if I do.

 

Everybody, can you look at these cards?

[spoiler=0000]

Card Lore (Do you need it?): During each of your opponents Standby Phases, inflict damage equal to the number of cards in their Hand x100

 

[spoiler=0001]

Card Lore: Once per turn, by sending one Pyro-Type monster in your hand to the Graveyard, inflict 500 damage to the opponent. If this card is face up on the field during your End Phase, switch this card into Attack postition.

 

[spoiler=0002]

Card Lore: When this card is activated discard your entire hand. Then, draw 2 cards. If either of the cards is a monster, you may discard it to inflict damage equal to it's Level x100.

 

I need OCG fixes...

[Max Darkness]

Somochi Ash

 

During each of your opponent's Standby Phases, inflict damage to them equal to the number of cards in their hand x 100.

 

Useful, but will only do marginal damage. Might want to change to a Continuous Spell.

 

 

Cursed Flame Magician

 

Once per turn, by sending 1 Pyro-Type monster in your hand to the Graveyard, inflict 500 damage to your opponent. During your End Phase, if this card is in face-up Defense Position, switch it to Attack Position.

 

I'd change the damage to 'equal to the sent monster's Level x 200'.

 

 

Flaming Nothingness

 

Discard your hand and draw 2 cards. If either of the drawn cards are FIRE monsters, you can discard them to inflict damage to your opponent equal to their total Levels x 100.

 

Very underpowered. First change the name to "Burnt to Nothing". Then change to a Continuous Trap and the effect to this:

 

Discard all Monster Cards from your hand and inflict an amount of damage to your opponent equal to their total Levels x 100. During your Draw Phase, you can draw 1 card in addition to your normal Draw. If you do, and either of the drawn cards are Monster Cards, you can discard both cards to inflict damage to your opponent equal to their total Levels x 100.
