Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 This is my second finished set; the 'Terra' archtype. The 'Terra' are a group of Plant-type forest dwellers who's collective feature is they spore Tokens when they are destroyed by a card effect. 'Terra' Tokens come in three kinds; Toxin, Life, and Growth, and they inhabit the S/T Zone (they are treated as Normal Spell cards). Some 'Terra' Monsters can be revived by tributing Terra Tokens, and others gain strength from them. Several S/T's also need Terra Tokens to activate, whereas others protect their destrution or produce more. Other Plant-like aspects this deck mimics are turn-based effects (flowers growth and bloom), draining and increasing LP, and stuff like that. I always try to make my cards like that. Oh and I will admit that some of the pics are god-awful, there really aren't many flower like pics in the archives (odd huh?) but you get the idea anyway.

Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted October 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 [quote name='prototype' timestamp='1287197945' post='4708397'] the graphics of these cards suck the cards them selves suk overall rating 6/10 work harder [/quote] Read my second paragraph again, I clearly stated that some of the pictures are awful, as in the case with 9/10 decks in the Finished Sets section. The image archives become a bit limited when you need 20 plant related pictures. And if these cards themselves suck (which I would like you to explain how so) how on earth did I score a six? Rant over. Thanks for the rep Button and more comments please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daft Innovation Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 Fail critic is fail, Mr. prototype. Anyways, I really like the concept of your set. Would love to see some more cards in the future. Great work so far though, even though the pics aren't as great as most of your other cards, but it's no prob. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted October 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 Cheers Daft, I came up with Terra Dragon for a contest and got awesome feedback from the host (Rochster) so developed the idea and got this. Dunno how this would play in terms of actually winning a duel if the newly posted setup was used, think my other set was missing that killer edge as well so I know that's something I have to work on. But still I never knew I could be this imaginative. In regards the pics, for most of my Singles cards I get the pic first and then do the effect around what I figure what that creature would do, obviously with sets the pictures are the last thing on the agenda so unless you do Warriors or Dragons it's very difficult to gather many pictures around 1 theme. Anyway, nine new cards up, including the boss Synchro, Methusalah. (For those who don't know, Methuselah is the oldest character in the Bible, and the name of a tree that can live for thousands of years!!!)

Daft Innovation Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 I had a feeling I've seen Terra Dragon before. Is that Synhcro from Wanderly's/HP Doom's archive? I've seen it before, and it doesn't look...very boss-like. But some nice additions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRuler Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Nice cards, the pics sucks but they have still good effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted October 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 Yep, I used him for LCM entry as well, one of my favourite cards. Methusalah is from Doom's archive (I think ) he doesn't look that fearsome but I think he looks kinda sagely and magical, like that Treebeard dude in Lord of the Rings. Thanks for the feedback all, know what I've got to work on for my next set now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperial Knight of Wisel Posted October 19, 2010 Report Share Posted October 19, 2010 They're okay I guess. Not bad mouthing them, they're just something that I wouldn't make myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ｍｒ．Ｒｏｂｏｔ Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 Effects are pretty balance and the deck is pretty promising but the pics just ruin it I think though I have to agree cause it's pretty hard to find a good quality pics for anything else that dragon or knight so 8/10 man.

Embittered Moon Posted October 23, 2010 Report Share Posted October 23, 2010 some of your pics are bad, but we already established that. i actually like it a lot. It's a good concept for an archetype. 8/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Y2Jgrave Posted October 24, 2010 Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 man your pics suck so bad that it's good...make any sense? neh, the pics aren't that bad at all just some are a little blur so I don't know why people keep saying their bad but the card themselves are pretty awesome and they have balance effect and the spell and trap are pretty help I guess while the Synchro is wicked and also featured a great pics. anyway why [b]Small Orchid[/b], [b]Big Orchid[/b] and [b]Giga Orchid[/b] isn't featured in a card? just asking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted October 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2010 These are still getting replies? Awesome Thanks for the positive feedback guys. In regard to the pics well in the 6 archives I use there was a was a total of maybe what... 6 or 7 plant monsters? With the seven main Terra monsters they do all at least kinda flow in a way, especially in terms of the background. I think I already mentioned my single cards I find a load of cool pictures and build the card around the pic, doesn't work that way with sets. In regard the orchids Y2J, they held the release of this set up my a month almost single handiedly!! I'm not particularly happy with them because their effects are too congested, they originally involved burn and healing effects similar to Terra Jungle but it was too much. I only released them in the end becuase they are the only real source of the rare and valuable Growth Tokens. Anyway thanks for the CnC, my next set is in development and I'm happy to say the pics flow and look really good, as well as scary. And I've actually got a set strategy in mind too which has made them so much easier to create, so very excited about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghoulish Posted January 7, 2011 Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 Nice I like the originality, I think i'm going to be the only one not commenting on the pics :/ which is not surprising in the least, they are quite balanced, I'd say however that maybe it would be tricky to master this set what with the 3 different types of tokens and the cards effects revolving around the specificity of certain tokens, but other then that its good to see, keep them coming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted January 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2011 Bloody hell these have risen from the dead again? (Well not suprising given their effects.) It appears that some people do actually click on the links in my sigs. Wonders never cease. Thanks Bluster it's difficult to do anything really different on this site. Still gotta make WIND and WATER attribute archtypes. I have noted down some ideas for them, but nothing concrete in development yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
