Effect

This card cannot be Special Summoned. This card returns to the owner's hand during the End Phase of the turn that this card is Normal Summoned, Flip Summoned, or flipped face-up. This card gains ATK and DEF equal to the number of Pyro-Type monsters in your Graveyard x500. When this card attacks your opponent directly, you can remove 1 card in your opponent's Graveyard from play. Destroy this card when it is targeted by the effect of a Spell, Trap, or Effect Monster.[/align]

Sorta the most Anti-Meta type... A very useful card in a few situations.

 

9/10

[ragnarok1945]

it's only 400 atk per monster, so it should be balanced out

 

a slow effect to drain your opponent's cards to the RFG pile anyway, so I find this balanced out

 

9.1/10

Live long and Prosper. lol :) I enjoy a good retro theme card and Star Trek is a favorite in my house. I like this card but maybe it's slightly UPed. Only 400 ATK per monster late game it would be great, but other then that dead draw. Also destroyed when targeted by a card effect and it returns to your hand at the end of the turn and only removes 1 card for Direct Damage? that seems a little UPed to me maybe when it inflicts damage and removes 2 cards it would be better. However very well done otherwise.

8.7/10

^ Lol, wasn't really going for the Star Trek theme but I see how you would come to that conclusion.

 

Thanks for the comments.

 

Oh and about the UPness. You know, I'm sure if I made it x500 or such, it would be a 2500+ beatstick in no time, making it OPd. IDK, people have opinions =\

[ProSora]

well its not op thats for sure but its not up >.>

i think its balanced out for the most part

Not sure on the ATK, lemme think:

Runnable in: (almost) Pure Volcanics, Flamvell

That type of Volcanic Deck is: Relatively weak and low-tier, but fills the Graveyard quite fast

Flamvells: Like RFGing their opponent's Graveyard. Like things with 200 DEF. Tend to want their Normal Summon. Fills the Graveyard reasonably fast.

 

I think that it'd be balanced @500. It would make it a viable tech option but, being a spirit and returning to the hand, it wouldn't give any field presence so would still make people think before splashing it.

[Yogg-Saron]

Yeah, I see what your saying. I changed it to x500.

 

I am just trying to make the Pyro-Type stray away from just burn damage a bit more. =\

Yeah' date=' I see what your saying. I changed it to x500.

TBH, Pyros aren't really used at all ATM, when they are, they are either a tech'd Volcanic engine, which doesn't burn, a tech'd Flamvell Engine, which just Synchros, or a full Flamvell Deck, which only runs 1-2 burn cards.

[Yogg-Saron]

Yeah, but I remember those days when all you would see was Burning decks being abused like a b****.

[pussycat_boy15693]

I agree with ragnarok that it should be "x400" to make this card not a bit OPed.

Anyway, I think it's a good card (and has nice pic, too)

9.5/10

[Shocked]

Good card. The effect seems balanced

 

The pic, seems good. No problem..
