[quote]FLIP: Both players roll a six-sided die once. The player with the lowest result takes damage equal to their opponent's result x 500 Life Points. However, if a winner's result is 6, the loser takes 6000 points of damage. If the results are the same, both players roll again.[/quote]

This card is awesome, I dealt 6000 damage with it by its effect in my last game, was awesome, my opponent was like WTF!!

Gotta love dice :P

Anyways I'll add a poll to see what's YCM's favorite Jar monster.

Thanks. Repped.

So yeah, it's the same face. I wish the effect wasn't so much luck-based.

Should be banned forever and never see the light of day again. Also, you can FTK with this by activating 2 Meteors of Destruction, Setting this, activating Book of Taiyou, [b]and rolling 6[/b].

Inconsistent enough to be tier 30.

Serious?

Yeah.

This card's effect is actually many different potential effects, one of which is broken. Were it to always do 6000 without the dice condition, this'd be more obvious, but because the dice condition isn't an actual cost, you can get an insanely overpowered effect by simply being lucky. The truth is that the effect activated should one roll a six should not be allowed to occur in a Duel, and so the whole card has to be scrapped because of this one potential effect.

A better example to demonstrate my point would be Cup of Ace. Pot of Greed's effect-to-cost ratio is generally recognized as overpowered and better to not allow to occur in Duels. Cup of Ace has a chance of having that same intolerable effect-to-cost ratio (or of actually BEING Pot of Greed to put it more bluntly) and as such is also banworthy.

Placing odds against a given card's effect occuring and giving that effect a cost are entirely different as the former doesn't balance the effect should it occur. Moreover, allowing someone to potentially lucksack into a win cannot be accepted as it's counterproductive to a format in which skill is mandatory to succeed.

I'm not advocating building a Deck around it, I'm only even mentioning the combo because of how esthetically ballin' it is.

Cup of Ace is either a +1 or a -3. Not exactly the best thing ever there :D I mean it'd be different if it just said "Flip a coin and call it. If you called it right, Draw 2 card." and that's it, making it just a -1, but since it can turn around a -3 you, its so bad o.x;

Edit: Now i kinda see what you're talking about, so nvm this post :o
