Deus Ex Machina

[賢狼ホロ]

Thinking of the word pun it must have been made before, but I haven't seen any around. >_> Anyways, my friend got the idea and I made the card. I'm thinking this card as limited. Enjoy!

 

 

Activate only when your opponent declares an attack that would make your Life Points 0. Negate the attack and Special Summon 1 "Machina" monster from your Graveyard ignoring Summoning conditions.

Would be pointless to use as you would lose anyway.

[Krokosaurus]

Yes, he´s right! You should write that the attack is negated.

useless/10

[Lexadin]

I have to agree with ^^, it is usseless unless it negates the attack or redirects it.

[Thatisnotwhatshesaid714]

It would be a good card if u could negate the attack. oh yea and it is ATK not attack

I will disagree with this.

 

If you would learn at least basic rules of yugioh, you would now that when attack is declared and at that moment number of monsters on the attacked players field changes (not the position), thing called "REPLAY" takes place. At that moment attacking player can precced with attack OR attack with another monster if able NOTE: if player chooses to attack with another monster, he cannot attack again with monster which declared attack 1st.

It's usless and the picture doesn't really fit right. Knowing how Konami makes their cards (I said Konami because I'm not sure if Kazuki Takahashi even makes that many cards anymore. I don't know.), there would probably be a "Machina" monster in the picture getting summoned right in front of some kind of blast and you end up losing anyway. Oh well.

Yeah I forgot about replay battle my bad.

 

And its only ATK if the effect is refering to a monsters ATK points not an actual attack itself.

 

This would combo well with Machina Fortress but thats about all I can see it being used for.

Or Machina Force. The Trap states that it Special Summons ignoring the summoning conditions.

[Limited Edition KING]

But Machina Force says it cannot be Special Summoned except by the effect of Commander covington its a ruling on the card. The same thing applies with Blackwing - Blizzard the Far North as an example.

[Darj]

And "Ancient Gear Golem" says that it cannot be Special Summoned, but still the Fusion and "Spell Gear" can Special Summon it.

And since this Trap has the same ruling as those cards, it can Special Summon Force.

ignoring the summoning conditions

 

If a card says that it can Special Summon monsters with the "ignoring the summoning conditions" clause, it means that it can Special Summon any monster, regardless what the effect of the monster says.

[賢狼ホロ]

Oh, sorry I missed the Negate the attack, it is SUPPOSED to be there! : 3

Don't have time to correct it now, but thanks for the comments!

[賢狼ホロ]

I added the "negate the attack"-part I had forgot. ; )

I finally found a better picture! Check it out! ; D

[賢狼ホロ]

Bump!

[Limited Edition KING]

New Picture is alot better than the old one.

[touzaikokon]

Effect: Oh so nice. Makes a great save for Machina. (3 points)

 

Grammar: Looks good, nothing to say on that. (3 points)

 

Style: Oh, now this is where the card shines. I see what you did thar, what with the name pun...I like it, though, I like it a lot. (3 points)

 

 

Overall: 9/10

[Yang Xiao-Long]

I see you've studied some Latin then? Good, because if you didn't, it means "god out of a machine".

 

New version is so much better.

OCG looks great, pic is awesome, and the card overall is great. Tons better than the old version.

9.4/10

[賢狼ホロ]

No, I haven't studied Latin, but I knew what "Deus Ex Machina" is. ^.^

Me and my friend (who originally thought of this card) loves word puns : 3

Thanks for all the ratings! \(^o^)/
