Star Force Card Contest

[~Oleon~]

Heres the round one rates from me:

[spoiler=Shadows card: ]

Firstly, the pic isn't good, at all. Its way too realistic.

Pic: 4/9

OCG, you've missed several hyphons and capitalised letters...

OCG: 13/18

Slightly OPed, I mean, Level 6, 2450 ATK, Special Summons Fish straight away, whilst your opponent can't attack them? I say thats pretty darn OPed in my perspective.

Balance: 19/25

 

Effect, as you can see would only work in a fish type deck. The frog cards are easy to just quick swarm, then to continue Synchro Summon this, and summon even more fish.

So, on my third turn with a frog deck with this, I'd have at least 2 of them on the field and another high level synchro.

The effect is just plain. Sorry, but I have to bring it down hard on you guys, apparently.

Effect: 9/16

Total:

45/68

 

 

[spoiler= Sephiran]

The pic is good, its great to see a WanderWorks production to be used.

8/9, its slightly blurred, if not stretched.

The OCG is good in places, but sometimes you have put in a "an" in place of an "a".

OCG: 16/18

Now for teh balance. You see, it can be quick summoned say when a WATER monster is destroyed. Now, its OPed for a Lv.6, because it can be reborned, it can attack your opponent, and when its attacked you can kill itself to stop the attack, and then to be reborned for more carnage.

Balance: 17/25

The effect is well structured, it's a cycle as if it were the mighty card known as Stardust Dragon. So, you're getting good points for effect from me.

Effect: 15/16

Total Rate:

56/68

Nicely done.

 

 

[spoiler= Alucard]

Now, the pic is a bit manga-ish, not the type of thing you see in real cards. Have a look at Freed the Matchless General.

Pic:

7/9

In the OCG you've missed several capitalisation points there, not to mention a certain "y" to make up for "your" not "our". XD

OCG: 15/18

Balance is perfecto. Well done. Its just on the verge of being UPed, but its hanging on tight to its original balance.

Balance: 25/25

Effect is slightly complicated, but just enough so you can understand it. Just as Sephirans, its well structured.

Effect: 14/16

Total Rate:

62/68

 

Now before I look at the last card, I want to be amazed.

[spoiler=Zeonark]

First must I say the pic is great, but it has been used several times before.

Pic: 6.8/9

Now the OCG.Technically, half of its effect can't even be used. You quoted:

"This card can only be Special Summoned by a Synchro Summon". Then later in the effect you have typed: "If this card is destroyed by battle, Special Summon it" So this is what you're effect would be like:

Lore:

1 Tuner + 1 or more non-tuner monsters

This card can only be Special Summoned by a Synchro Summon. As long as this card is face-up on the field, your opponent cannot attack you directly. Any battle damage involving this card becomes 0. If this card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, Special Summon it in face-up Defense Position. During you Standby Phase, you can Special Summon one level 3 or lower WATER monster from your hand.

See what I mean? It's cancelled out its own effect!

OCG for this is: 3/18

Balance, seeing as half of its effect is gone, the OPedness of it starts to fade away...

Balance: 23/25

Effect is good structure, but I have a question, would you be able to continue like this?

Effect: 15/16

Total Rate:

47.8/68

 

 

If you feel I am being harsh on you, please do not judge me as a person, judge me as a judge. Or you can take it to court. XD

 

I have to say, that was the longest post I ever made.

Ah, slight mess up on my part. You guys wouldn't mind if I fixed that do you? And what do you mean If I would be able to continue like this?

 

Looks like I already screwed up in my first contest. xD

[-DOOM]

I'm a bit late, but can i still post my entry??

 

EDIT: [spoiler= who cares, my card]

1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner monsters

When this card is Synchro Summoned, select 1 Field Spell Card OR 1 Fish-Type monster from your deck and add it to your hand. As long as "Umi" is on the field, once per turn, you can pay 800 Life Points to Special Summon 1 Fish-Type monster from your hand. If your opponent declares an attack, you can tribute 1 Fish-Type monster you control to change the attacking monster to Defense Position.

 

[Shadow Zero]

IN AMERICA!

so everyone make sure that you have your cards in by then and no later!

cards will be posted and critiqued in the first post starting tomorrow, and the round 2 results will be put up as well!

[Chaos Flame]

Not a bad score, I was making it to be another signer dragon and those are naturally OP.

[Shadow Zero]

actually, both me and oleon are judging the cards, so i still need to average out the total score for many of them. i will try to have it finished before i leave. if not, then i'll have it finished when i get back. in the interest of time, i shall now post the requirements for the second round.

make a syncho monster that requires a tuner with synchron in its name and make the synchron that would be used for the synchro summon.

so yeah, this card is 2 rounds. anyone who does not understand the round 2 requirements, pm me and i will explain.

SIJAI!

[MKJ]

i am now regional champion!!!

using my chaos kitty deck

[MKJ]

when is the next round?

[Shadow Zero]

oh gawd, i can't believe that i completely forgot about this! sorry everyone! xD

i shall now look through the cards and such and judge them. for those of you ho have not yet to post your cards, you have until friday evening 8:00 E.S.T. to do so. for those of you who have already posted your cards and had been patiently waiting, i sincerely apologize and will post the requirements for the next round as soon as the card judging is finished.

hey...wait a second! none of you have posted your cards! :evil:

ah well, in case you guys didn't know, sijai means begin. i will give you all until 12:00 a.m. sunday morning E.S.T. to have your cards in and judged. remember, the faster you get this done, the faster we will be able to advance things to the next round.

I also remind you all that if you do not get your cards in, you will only get 30 points! this is the first elimination round, so do what you need to do, and do it now!

love the card.

pic: 13/15 great picture. looks more like a humanoid octopus with the tendrils on its face though.

effect: 23/25 effect is great. maybe a little op'd, but great.

balance: 26/30 like i said, slightly op'd.

OCG/wording: 30/30 couldn't see any wording errors. great job.

1 Tuner + 1 or more non-tuner type monster

When this card is summoned cange the position of all face-up monsters on the field. As long as this card is face-up on the field your opponent's monster can not change their battle positions. When this card is destroyed special summon one level 4 or lower WATER monster from your graveyard to the field.

pic: 11/15 good pic, but i have seen better.

effect: 19/25 a slightly ou effect that is bland. useful, but bland.

balance: 24/30 very balanced for a level 7, although it is up'd.

OCG/wording: 20/30 there are spelling erroros here. it should say 'change', not 'cange'. you didn't capitalize special summon, and you put cannot as 2 separate words. you'll need to up your game if you want to survive the elimination round.

-10 points because i distinctly recall saying that the synchro monster had to be a level 5 or 6. i'll double heck just to be sure, but unless i find out that i am wrong, you will have 10 points removed from your total score for that.

 

Oleon 4, i need you to judge these cards and send me am message with your results. also, i need you to resend that first message with the cards that you had already re-judged under the 100 point rule so that i can add them to the first post as well. you may post the cards here as well if you wish, but i must have that message sent.
