RickiMinaj Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 LoL overpowered... Once per turn. Even if it only lasts one turn (and with it's stats, it looks like it probably only will), the turn it is summoned, you can destroy your opponents monster with no cost.

Archelaus Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Add a cost for Sniper or it'll be pretty broke in Ratbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♠>:Stick-Man:<♠ Posted February 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Do you mind telling me a way to fix the card to make it balanced then, and as I go with this set I will make cards that allow this card not to be destroyed as easily.

[/quote] Make it a cost, but allow it to benefit the set as a whole as well. Like "Send 1 "Soldier monster from your hand or you control to the Graveyard". EDIT: OCG is wrong on that line, so don't trust the grammar. LoL, in a bit of a daze at the moment, so I don't feel like thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♠>:Stick-Man:<♠ Posted February 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 I do like your idea above cause I was also thinking of making this set a swarm set, but isn't the 600 Life Points cost good? Or still overpowered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anbu-of-Sand Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 I would go with Essence approach to making the card more balanced (although I don't find the card that overpowered). Make it have an Archetype-related drawback, but at the same time, it being beneficial. For example, say the cost has to be discarding a Soldier / Tributing one / whatever. This would be like if it was watching out for it's comrades, who were ambushed (the discard), which then the Sniper avenges them by taking out said monster. Then, you can have some monster like 'Soldier - Medic', that can recover those Soldiers from the Grave for something beneficial (such as Life Point gain). However, take fully note, that you should do your best to make the cards as creative / original as possible. Nobody in RC really likes cards that although go well together, only due so because of their lack of originality. Just saying. Also, seeing I already posted in this Archetype, I might as well do my best to continuing giving it some reviews here and there, and perhaps an Archetype Review as a whole when enough cards are made.

♠>:Stick-Man:<♠ Posted February 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Thanks Anbu, that makes perfect sense to me and I will give the card a Soldier Tribute to activate its effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGenuine Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Seems a little Op'ed by paying 600 life points is fine but once per turn even when its summoned so how about each of your [b][/b] Standby Phases u can destroy 1 monster your opponent controls?

Anbu-of-Sand Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 However, if you do so, make sure you have a monster, or any type of card at the least that can swarm decently so you can use this card's effectively. Perhaps a Field Spell. It'd be a shame to not have a War-Related Field Spell in a Soldier Archetype, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

♠>:Stick-Man:<♠ Posted February 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Well just to say in my opinion; pictures aren't what create the cards. Of course they catch attention, but the card itself need to be effective and balanced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGenuine Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 True but for me pictures are the best part of the card unless they really suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♠>:Stick-Man:<♠ Posted February 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Well of course the picture has to be decent, and right now I'm looking for a Medical Soldier looking picture, but I can't find a good enough one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lightning Bagon Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 I think it may still be a little OP'd because your opponent can get out i dunno a SSD and you still have a soldier summon this destroy SSD attack for 700 + any other attacks you might have.
