Deck Leaders... wtf?

[archie17]

My opinion is that everybody will choose their Deck Master to be Marshmallon.

 

Yeah and lose the duel just as quick anyways.

It's like Yugioh!: Duelist of the Roses. I think the TCG would suck after that

(Ignition) Tie of Dark Control

Select 1 monster you control. Switch the selected monster with your Deck Master. The selected monster is now your Deck Master. This Ability can only be used once per turn during your Standby Phase while your Deck Master is in its Deck Master Position. If your Deck Master is replaced by a new Deck Master' date=' your new Deck Master also has this Deck Master Ability in addition to its own.

Polaris has a better Deck master

Monsters that require 1 or more cards being face-up on the field for them to be Summoned can be Summoned properly without the required card(s) being face-up on the field.

 

Special Summon 2 Cyber Dragons in 1 turn.

How nice.

We copy-pasta from that site.

 

Byserk Shock's effect is just ridiculous

(Compulsory Trigger) Shock Tactics

Activates when a monster is Set. Destroy that monster.

 

It turns Book of Solor Eclipse into a Raigki.

Awesome.

[Manjoume Thunder]

In that site there's a good number of nice cards with balanced effects, a few broken ones that will probably ruin the whole game (btw you lost) and 90% of the deck masters suck and will never be used.

 

Sounds familiar.

 

:?

[Toffee.]

ruin the whole game (btw you lost)

DANG IT MANJYOME!

*lost The Game*

 

Zaborg is ridiculous

(Trigger) Dismissal of Monarch – Extraction

Activate when you Tribute Summon a monster. Select 1 monster on the field. Put the selected monster on the top of its owner's Deck

 

Any monster you Tribute Summon becomes a monster-only Raiza.

 

Epic.

[archie17]

I believe those deck masters on that site are fan made anyways. There are only 18 actual known deck masters from the anime.

 

The system will never be brought over into TCG for the same reason the Legendary Dragons wouldn't. It would require a whole new set of cards to be made for all existing monsters past, present and future.

Hardened Armed Dragon would make a pretty awesome Deck Master, don't you think?

 

P.S. Marshmallon would be a good deck master because its Deck Master ability would be: when a face-down Defense Position monster you control is attacked, inflict 1000 damage to your opponent. Doesn't that sound fair?

Mecha Bunny burn?

[Lonk]

points at Lightsworns and says 'the fun is already gone'

Armityle is worse.

 

First turn' date=' you summon a monster with 10k ATK.

 

........We should just limit the starting Deck Masters to be non-Synchro, non-Fusion, non-Nomi, non-Ritural, level 6 or below monsters.

 

I say "Starting" because the deckmaster you [i']START OFF[/i] with has to abide by ALL of those conditions, but you can always replace it with other cards, after you bring it into play.

 

Like how you can use Deal of Dark Ruler to replace a deckmaster

 

Or if your Deckmaster is King of the Swamp, and you use Polymerization, Elemental Zero becomes your new Deck Master

(provided you put King of the Swamp into play)

 

Also, Deckmansters dont get "Summoned" when they are brought nto play.

 

Also, lets say that the turn you bring a deckmaster into play, its unable to be destroyed.

 

How about just normal monsters? An idea of a deck leader effect would be like this:

 

[spellcaster/Deck Leader]

(Insert Vanilla Text here but with ability of Deck Leader)

[-Griffin]

Hmm, what could Faultroll/Gottoms be?

I'd love to just have a "Once per turn, Special Summon 1 "X-Saber" monster from your Graveyard" floating around.

 

Or Juracs? An ATK boost their could be sweet.

 

What about Koa'kis? Could they have a Deck Master that stops their maintenance cost?

 

Or Larvae Moth? Instant victory if you Summon another copy, just because it's awesome?

Really it depends on how many people would like to use Deck Masters.

EDIT: I don't think it would be very popular at all, would wear quickly

[~/Coolio Prime\~]

If was a deckmaster, the game would be screwed. If only select cards were made deck masters as a subtype, it could be done.

[Great Unclean One: VK]

Gentlemen, let us hope Konami doesn't come here and read what we are typing, or else we might have given them a idea to make moar money.

[Rose]

Or like i said in other posts, just create brand new cards which are treated as a deck master. Yes, in that way it could be done.

[Darj]

I think a Deck Master System could actually work if you couldn't Special Summon the selected monster anytime, but only activate its effect once during each of your turns. That way, when choosing your Deck Master, you would have to worry only about its effect.

 

For example, if I choose "XX-Saber Gottoms" I would be able to Tribute 1 X-Saber to discard 1 card from my opponent's Deck. During my next turn, I would be able to Tribute another X-Saber to discard another card.

 

Following this idea, I want to suggest some rulings for a Deck Master system that would bring new strategies to current duels while maintaining balance:

 

-You can only choose 1 monsters as a Deck Master. Choosing Spell or Trap cards would be overpowered.

-You can choose any type of monster (Normal, Effect, Fusion, Synchro, etc) from your Deck or Extra Deck.

-You cannot choose a monster from your Deck if doing so would reduce its card number to below 40.

-The chosen monster (now called "Deck Master) is placed at the right side of your Deck in Attack Position. This is done before the beginning of the duel.

-The Battle Position of the Deck Master cannot be changed.

 

-The Deck Master cannot be Summoned.

-The effect(s) of Deck Masters can be activated, but only once during each of your turns.

-Continuous Effects of the Deck Master(s) are always active. Example: If "Jinzo" is a player's Deck Master, Trap cards cannot be activated and are negated.

-Once per turn, you can flip your Deck Master face-down or face-up. While face-down, the effect(s) of the Deck Master cannot be activated. (This ruling is to let the user have more control over Deck masters with continuous effects or with costs). You cannot activate the effect of the Deck Master during the turn it was flipped face-up.

-Deck Masters can be targeted by card effects, but are unaffected by them, except when they would be flipped face-up or face-down.

Example 1: You can select a Beast-Type Deck Master with "Berserking" to halve its ATK to increase the ATK of Beast-Type monster you control. In this case, the Deck Master wouldn't lose any ATK, but the other monster would gain half of it.

Example 2: You can select a Deck Master with "Book of Moon" to flip it face-down and negate its effect.

-Deck Masters are also treated as being in the field, except for the effect of "Spirit Barrier" and similar cards.

Example 1: If "Blackwing Armor Master" is your Deck Master and you activate the effect of "Blackwing - Sirocco the Dawn" on itself, Sirocco would gain 2500 ATK from the Armor Master.

Example 2: If you Summon a "Cryomancer of the Ice Barrier" while you control no other "Ice Barrier" monsters BUT your Deck Master is an "Ice Barrier" monster, then the effect Cryomancer is activated.

 

-If the Deck Master is destroyed by its own effect (Example: Darklord Zerato), the player does NOT lose the duel and the card is removed from the game (different to "removed from play").

-If the Deck Master is sent to the hand, Deck or Graveyard by its own effect (Example: Stardust Dragon), the effect resolves but the card is then removed from the game. (different to "removed from play"). When the card is removed from the game, the player does NOT lose the duel.

 

I think those rulings will do.

With those rulings, I bet "Spell Canceller" would become more useful.

Once you take your Deck Master out, you can't send him back. From what i remember from the anime, im probs wrong.
