New X-Sabers

[MystirMeme]

I created these cards when I got inspired by some pics I found. I had initially decided to just post the Cosmic Synchro but then the other 5 were created. Their effects were geared to punishing defensive play. Enjoy.

Once per turn, when this card destroys an opponent's face-down monster, this card can attack again during the same turn. Negate the effects of face-down monsters this card destroys.

When this card battles a monster with a DEF that is greater than this card's ATK, you can reduce that monster's DEF by 1000 at the end of the damage step.

You can discard 1 other "X-Saber" monsters in your hand to Special Summon this card from your hand. Once per turn, you can discard 1 monster card in your hand to inflict damage to your opponent equal to the discarded monster's level x200.

1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner "X-Saber" monsters
When this card is Synchro Summoned, you can add 1 "X-Saber" monster in your Graveyard to your hand. During your opponent's Main Phase, you can Synchro Summon using this face-up card you control as a Synchro Material Monster.

1 Synchro Tuner + "XX-Saber Gottoms"
Once per turn, you can Special Summon 1 non-Synchro "X-Saber" monster in the Graveyard. You can tribute 1 face-up "X-Saber" monster on the field to send 1 card on the field or in your opponent's hand to the Graveyard. When your opponent's monster declares an attack, you can select it, then remove this card from play and negate the attack. During the End Phase, Special Summon this card that was removed from play by this effect.

Well I suppose Pinpoint Shot is alittle OP but I think that with all the swarming suppport that the X-Saber have, I think its possible. Although I may add some level 1s and 2s to help make it possible. The criticism is welcome though. Thanks.

[Lightning Bagon]

level 1s and 2s will make lionan useable

How the hell is Pinpoint Strike OP? Seems UP, to me.

If that's OP, Shrink is bannable.

[grandprix1]

Lionnan is perfectly fine
Pashuul + Ragigura
kablamo
if it was real,id run it in multiples,it'd be far too easy to get out.

Pinpoint isnt OP'd at all,its actually just a worse Miniaturize lmao

8/10 for pictures
8/10 for effects,though you could make the upgraded Gottoms a tad more powerful,give him an immunity or something considering hes on the same level of summoning as Shooting Star and Red Nova.

Thanks for the suggestions.

So?

[MystirMeme]

I suppose I could reduce the subtraction or something.

[Lightning Bagon]

Or make a limit on how long it lasts

[Jazin Kay]

Pointless. It's fine as it is.

Think about why before you reply. Actually think about it. Envision activating it in a duel.

[MystirMeme]

Meh. I think I'll just find some more cards.

[noraai]

OK cards. Nothing wrong with them. How are going to summon Lionnan? You should make some Level 1 and 2 monsters to Summon him. About Pinpoint Strike, should it look like this:

''Activate when a ''X-Saber'' monster on your side of the field is selected as an attack target. Discard 1 card from your hand. Decrease the ATK of the attacking monster by 1000 points until the End Phase.''

If you want to keep it 1000, you should make a limit how long does it last. If you want to keep it how it is, you should lower the ATK decreasment.

7.7/10

Was gonna make a lv 1 / 2 soon as i found the pic and yea I suppose I should nerf the card.

[xN3xT Injexktz]

Good!

[Jazin Kay]

Fine, I will explain why Pinpoint Strike needs no revisions.

When would a smart player activate it? During the damage step to help a saber overpower another. Would anyone with intellect activate it with the intention along the lines of "If I do this, it will still kill my monster, but his will be weakened for me to take it out later"? No, they'll trigger it so their Boggart Knight or whatever can overpower a monster and deal a shred of damage at the same time. Thus meaning it's ATK reduction permanent is practically meaningless.

In my opinion, it is severely underpowered. It is situational in what it can be used with (ONLY an X-Saber) and has an activation cost. Shrink can do tons more than this, can be used easier, and can potentially deal more damage when used with ANY monster. By understanding this using something YCM knows little of (critical thinking, Google it), we can determine with clear logic that Pinpoint Strike is NOT overpowered in any sense. It's a simple conflict aid card. And if anyone thinks it's OP, they need to understand the game better.

Nope, not gonna use my "bad players fear good cards" line, this time. Not completely accurate.

[MystirMeme]

Well for now ill keep the card how it is.

Nice
