Risky Spell Card

[Jaedumuth]

This is my latest card, a Spell card which awkwardly goes either way when played.

Lore: Select a monster on the field and flip a coin. If heads, the monster is sent to the controlling player's Graveyard without activating effects. If not, deduct the selected monster's ATK from the Lifepoints of the player who does not control the selected monster.

I am considering two different coin flips, one for the destruction of the monster and one for the Lifepoint deduction, but that's still up for debate here.
Feel free to suggest more limits before this card can be played, I'll consider all suggestions equally and sincerly.
Don't be afraid to help with the OCG either, I'm not sure if this is okay.

Rate and be nice.

Bumpy McBump.

Wording's a little iffy, and copious (means there's a lot of text). And more coin flips would mean more text, bogging down the card and making it a bother to look at and play, making the card unrealistic.

Just mentioning those for consideration.

I like this card. 9/10. very original.

For your first point, I realise it's a lot of text for this kind of "simple" effect, but I can't think up of a more efficient way to state the full effect of the card in a way it is non-ambiguous (so that there is only one way of interpreting the effect).

For your second point... That is why I decided against a double coin flip initially.

Thanks for your comment

Its toss a coin I think
8/10

[Phantom M.C.]

ehh, its probably balanced, might be usable 7.5/10

I would use it on my own monster with some coin re-flips.

That way you can deal direct damage, or if your deck uses it, you can send it to the GY for extra effects.

Either that or it's a 50:50 Snipe Hunter or chain with Barrel Behind the Door (or whatever it is), something that sends effect damage to other player.
