[b][center]This Card can be activated in response to any Spell Speed as a link of a chain. Increase your Life Points by 2000 and Special Summon from your hand, deck, or extra deck a number of monsters equal to number of monsters and equal in level to the monster(s) your opponent controls. If you summon two or more monsters with this card's effect and the monsters summoned share the same Type and Attribute, reduce the ATK and DEF of face-up monsters your opponent controls by half.[/center][/b]


Before anybody goes off and says the card is OP, I'm gonna say now that that was my intent. I tried to balance out a 2000 LP gain and a potential full field summon by adding the restriction of having to match the opponent's field to an extent. Now I'm not sure the appropriate card phrasing should be, but the effect boils down to this: If your opponent has a level 3 monster, a level 4, and a level 5, you would have to summon three monster (to match the three the opponent has) and match them in level, thus a level 3, 4, and 5.

Again, a full field summon could be possible, but improbable. Or if your opponent has say a level 10, a level 8 and a level 1, there aren't a whole lot of level 10 monsters that can be easily summoned through anything other than a particular condition.

Well made point at the end. It was a bit confusing at first, but you explained the effect well. Nicely done. The only problem with this for me is the picture, but it's no reason for me to give you a horrible rating. I know you were trying to make it OP, but halving your opponent's monster's ATK could very well win you the Duel, so I would tone that down or get rid of it. Otherwise, very nice card.

Thank you. I couldn't seem to find a decent enough picture though. I was hoping to use something with rain and a magic-esk quality. True that the ATK and DEF cut is way OP, i was figuring that unless you are using, say a dragon deck, chances are slim that you'll not only match the opponent level for level but to have all 2-5 of your monsters having the same attribute and type. The card was meant to work on the basis of being specific. 2000 LP and the summon(s) for matching level/# of monsters and halved atk/def for having matching monsters.

And if anybody knows a better way to phrase how i want the summon effect done, please feel free to post it.

interesting card. i like the idea but it could get very tedious to use if the field gets complicated.

on the other hand the possabilities are virtually limitless if there is only one monster on the field.

good card
