Spell Fusion

[Bahamut - Envoy of the End]

I've wanted to try this ever since I found the picture ages ago. Fusing Spell Cards together to make a powerful monster. You heard.

Any thoughts on these card's concept, balance and general critisism would be greatly appreciated. Thank you to all who have commented so far.

OCG: You can remove 3 Spell Counter[b]s[/b] Just that one mistake. Isn't even worth taking a point off of the review, actually! XD

Still, this reminds me of a really old episode of the YGO anime, when Yugi fused Mamoth Graveyard to that arrow-card-thing. But this is better, since you're fusing spells instead of a spell and a monster. I like it, and I can't wait to see the trap version!

10/10

Maybe a VERY LITTLE OPd, but still 9.5/10!

I kinda find it funny that Spell Fusion has 2 spell cards on the picture that could not be used for Spell Fusion's cost since they don't stay Face-up on the field =P, any way, Nice cards, cool effects, broken in Crystal beast decks, but I could picture them making a card combo like this, 4.5/5

I remember, he used it to take down Kaiba's BEUD. I missed the first 5 minutes of that episode, so I just switched on to see Yugi grinning from behind a wall of Kuriboh while Mammoth's skull somehow implanted itself in BEUD and crippled it. Hence my latest status update about the original series.

Anyway Trap Fusion is up, and thanks for the 10.

As mentioned, Trap Fusion and new monster up. Yes they are pretty parallel. Comments?

A little easy to summon since you only need 2 spell/trap cards to summon a nearly 3000 ATK monster but a very intresting idea and ok pics.

8/10.

[Lightning Bagon]

These are great, i couldn't find any OCG errors, the Spell one I guess is a little op'd because crystal beasts and there are more continuous spell card than trap cards. Overall these are great cards and I would love to use this idea someday.

P(10/10)

I've had them saved for usage for months now, so I can't remember. Think it may have been 5D's archive as that was the one I used at the start.

I don't think the images look to bad, given their swirling and being fused together I don't find the pic quality that detrimental.

Thanks for the positive comments guys, you all seem to like this cards better than I do if I'm honest. I did this to try the concept and I'm happy with the way the two main cards turned out, but I actually don't particularly rate either of the monster cards that highly, at all. Typical

Okay, so it's seriously awesome. The second I saw the name of this thread I was urged to click. It wasn't a mistake.

The summoning conditions require a -2 with 2 Continuous Spell cards; that means it's very hard to pull off. Almost as hard as Hamon. Wait. Wait. Wait! That reminds me. It can be abused in CRYSTAL BEASTS!!!!!!! It can even bring Crystal Abundance!!!!

Over with lame joke and back to the point: The card is extremely usable in a dedicated deck. I'm pretty sure it's abusable, but still balanced. OTK decks wouldn't run this because it takes up too much hand cost and it ruins the idea. Good job! 10/10. A rep for you.

It's simular, and awesome too. Though this is a bit weaker when compared to his older brother in terms of both ATK and summoning conditions. 9.9/10. Maybe make it also 2900?

Awesome cards that need more reps.

[Bahamut - Envoy of the End]

Thank you so much Eva.

I was worried that I'd overloaded the two monsters with too many effects and that they didn't flow very well.

But the general consensus suggests otherwise.

Will bump up Mamuzaki's ATK.

[DARKPLANT RISING]

No, they work smoothly provided they can't be abus-

Wait. Could you add an Earthbound Immortal Effect? Like, so you can only have one copy out. Otherwise it [i]can[/i] be a very perplexing problem in 3's.

well what i mean is that, the look of the card makes one think you could use those 2 spell for it, and you couldn't since they're both Spell speed 1, as for chaining to one since it's Quick play may not be legal in the rules, but i wouldn't be able to find you an actual example of that in the game, since no card truly exists. Same thing applies to the Trap Fusion since using both of those traps would be a good waist of one of them =P but I like the Trap guy more, he makes more sense to me and i would say is more Balanced then the Spell Version. These guys kinda remind me of the fake god cards from GX. now you just need to make a Fiend version.

Good idea, done. Mildly irked it shrinks the text, but given the lore is printed it doesn't matter to much.

Well I play Tag Force (the original, I'm a dragon dinosaur) and from dueling on that I'm sure you can use these in combination.

Example 1 - I use Pot of Greed/Fissure, and I immediately chain it with Serial Spell, so I get to draw 4 cards/destroy 2 monsters.
Example 2 - I use Stray Lambs to summon two Tokens. I then chain it with Emergency Provisions to gain 1000 LP. I then chain that with another Emergency Provisions to gain another 1000 LP. (This is used continually by Proffessor Banner.)

I'm sure their effects still activate as normal, but I'm no expert.

What do I need to make a Fiend of?

these guys remind me of http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Uria,_Lord_of_Searing_Flames and http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Hamon,_Lord_of_Striking_Thunder , now you just need to make one that uses two fiends like http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Raviel,_Lord_of_Phantasms used 3.
