Anbu-of-Sand Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Well, Soldier - Sniper is fairly balanced now, even though I didn't find it that overpowered in the first place. However, I think the stats are a tad too low. Seeing that it's effect deals with the monsters, it's fairly sensible to have somewhat poor ATK stats. His DEF however, I think should be raised at perhaps 1700 at most so it can be a decent wall as well. Then again, you should save the 'wall' of the Archetype for something like a Soldier - Juggernaut or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anbu-of-Sand Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Although this is somewhat off-topic (I do apologize for that), I'm quite fond of Synchros. Sure it's frustrating when you have a Tuner + a Non-Tuner on the field, but when they add up, you don't end up getting the Level you need for that one monster, but hey, that's what Tokens and Level Manipulation is for. I can guarantee that when Excess Monsters get released, Synchro Monsters will still be better. Mainly because Excess are somewhat similar to them, but in my opinion, far more slow.

†Marksman† Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 ________________________________[b][size="5"]♣ Army Strong ♣[/size][/b]________________________________________ Great job my friend! I love the ida of this archetype, as i believe the army deserves to be better known and appreciated. As i love the army, They risk their lives for us - and i love yugioh. You combine both and what do you get? A soldier archetype that marksman loves! Anyhow, To the rating. OCG: Well, The OCG is fine i guess, I don't see any problems with that. So thats awesome. Pictures: I, personally like the pictures, I think there very cool actually. The pictures match the names and idea also so, that's even better. Effects: The effects seem all balanced out, and their not really OP'ed or UP'ed, So great job! Names: Well, all the names match the pictures and match the archetype, So that is GrrrrrrEAT! [b]Overall:[/b] Overall, I like these cards. They have a realistic meaning and it's a good meaning. Love it, So that makes the rating better. When the OCG is flawless, then that makes it even better! Pictures are all nice, so that is really nice, Because a big part of my ratings is the pictures. When the effects are all balanced, It makes better OCG and overall scores, So that is a big difference. Names are not too big of a part, so that is a very [size="1"]small[/size] plus. Anyhow, I'm going to go ahead and rate this a whopping 10/10. A rare rating to get! (From me? No, I give them out a lot...) Keep up the good work!

Boss Z Posted February 6, 2011 Report Share Posted February 6, 2011 Veteran Rifle can be abused as you can destroy your own set spell and trap cards, meaning destroy your own pointless spell cards and attack again, special summon a monster and keep doing it... you could very easily get in 5 attacks with your soldier and special summon a 2nd soldier to aid in battle, not killing an opponent, but rather effectively wiping out their entire field of monsters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do I prevent that from happening? And you lost me on the other part if he can only do this once per turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anbu-of-Sand Posted February 7, 2011 Report Share Posted February 7, 2011 [color=blue][b]Soldier - Rifleman[/b][/color] No originality. Useful. Nothing really to say. [color=blue][b]Soldier - Veteran Rifleman[/b][/color] Much more original and useful then the above. Simple clearing of the Spells or Traps, and if you end up hitting a Spell Card, you get to attack once again, and if you run over another monster, you get the original Rifleman's effect for a free Level 4 or lower Soldier on your field. With all the specificness though, it seems a tad situational. Stats seem somewhat low, but reasonable I can assume. Perhaps it can have an additional effect along the lines of if it was Tribute Summoned by a Soldier - Rifleman, it's ATK becomes 2200 or so instead?

Bronzegoldquake Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 I like the set generally-though I do believe some of the effects are a little OP'D(like the first card). I'm also not a big fan of the pictures and though you are right, the pictures don't make the card, they are a very important factor-good images make the card seem more realistic. 7/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
♠>:Stick-Man:<♠ Posted February 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 I'm glad you like them, and truly.. I see none of these cards overpowered; so please do point out why they are overpowered to prove me wrong. Also; sorry for not being able to find awesome pictures because sadly; good pictures are hard to find for soldiers. (Don't believe me? Go look for a good Medic picture.)

Anbu-of-Sand Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 [color=blue][b]Soldier - Veteran Sniper[/b][/color] I found it somewhat better, but also somewhat of a let-down. I was thinking that somewhat like the Veteran Rifleman, when it would be Tribute Summoned by it's lower part, it's original Defense would be increased to say from 1800 to 2200, that way you have some sort of 'Trivia' / Strategy / Tactic going on with the Archetype. Also, I think the effect would've been better if instead of inflicting damage equal to the half of the monster's DEF, it would inflict damage equal to the monster's Level x 200. By this, it'd be like if the Veteran Sniper would take out a Soldier (monster) of a high rank (Level), it would hurt the captain (opponent) quite a lot. And to possibly to make it even a bigger threat, make it so that instead of destroying said Soldier / monster, it removes it from play, such as the person had even ceased to existed. That's just my opinion though. Overall, it's decent for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
