This card can only be equipped to a monster with no cards equipped to it. Other cards cannot be equipped to that monster. A monster equipped with this card gains 500 ATK/DEF and can attack twice each Battle Phase; but it cannot attack directly.

This might be better OCG (I'm not quite certain):
This card cannot be equipped to a monster that has an Equip Spell Card already equipped to it. No Equip Spell Cards can be equipped to the card that has this card equipped to it. [i]A monster equipped with this card[/i] gains 500 ATK and DEF. [i]A monster equipped with this card can attack twice per Battle Phase and cannot attack your opponent directly.[/i]
Something about it rubs me the wrong way. As far as I know, people don't have a ton of Equip Spells equipped to one monster anyway, so the first part might not be that big of a deal. The second part is what irks me; +500 ATK and DEF and the ability to attack twice per turn seems a bit much. I'd limit it to monsters with low ATK to begin with, say less than 1500. The art is very nice though. Right now, I'd give it a 6.5/10 for OCG and balancing issues; fix it, and I'd give it an 8.5/10.

^OCG fix that's easier on the eyes.
That's how this card should have been:

this is going to be absolute hell if you use something like Maha Vilo on it[/quote]

These people are terrible at the game, don't listen to them. Let this random TCG idiot lord come speak the truth.

Well, contrary to what these people said, this is horribly underpowered. While some people would say "ZOMG THIS IS OVERPOWERED IM GONNA RUN 3", in fact this will never be used.

The logic here. The whole point of Equip Cards I have seen so far is either: (i) OTK, OR (ii) OTK. Wait, there was another. (iii) is OTK. In short, the theme of Equip Cards itself is so terrible. For one, it needs a monster to equip itself to. Two, most of them generate an instant -1 on yourself, and if you want to raise its ATK just using Smashing Ground instead is the obvious better choice. So far the only Equip Spell-based decks that are localized, or at least even worth creating, are Gigavise (which I use for fun), and Draguni - wait, Dragunities use Equip Monsters. Forget what I said. Others that are lower include the Ben Kei OTK that has once topped various locals all over the world.

Well, then what's so good about Gigavise? Well, they work similar. Gigavise generates 5 LV 6 or higher monsters, including 3 Synchros, in a singular turn, from two cards in the opening (Lonefire Blossom + Supervise). That's because Supervise generates a +1 with Gigaplant. Mark of the Rose is also deadly with all the Tuners the deck runs. DDR is obviously a -1, but with many things that use the Graveyard it's hilariously good. You're going to win in the turn after all, so within the deck it's useful.

Ben Kei is well, rather obvious. You just load your deck with equips and search/summon Ben Kei to attack three to five times in a turn and perform a reasonably sucessful OTK. It was severely weakened over the years, but it's still of some fun.

Both decks are OTKs. If anyone runs this in a deck that doesn't involve one, he should stop playing. Then, does this card have the capability for a reasonable End Game?

Sadly, no. The first effect that one said was needless in fact killed it permanently. Another was the "no-direct-attacking" effect. It basically defeated the purpose of all OTK-ing, given in the past Ben Kei used the aspect of attacking numerous times, and currently its cousin, Gigavise, abuses the aspect of flooding high-levels.

Does this card apply to either one? The answer I've already said. Therefore, I can say this card is underpowered.

Well, better than being overpowered. 7/10.

I understand your strategic points, but I don't quite like being insulted like that. Please use more tactful language next time.

just put another support here for it, we can rate it yet again

No. Just, no.

I just simply [i]hate[/i] it when you always say "put support" without thinking. What irritates me most is how in fact support cards for singulars are, with almost no exceptions, terrible.

Kay, think. How many singular-support cards in the solar system (Ex. Amplifier) have been used without being laughed at? I say only the combination of Worm Xex and Yagan. As far as I have seen locals, there's no other I can name off the top of my head.

Support has to include variety. Even Skull Servants now have 4 members. In their case it was easy, being all Zombie-Types that abuse the Graveyard. Not only that, they are monsters. This is an Equip card. Any day, as this card's support I would rather use Hidden Armory.

Your argument is invalid.

I'm from the TCG section. It becomes my personality.

Duly noted. Incidentally, would you mind giving my [url="http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/250671-dissolvent-sub-type/page__st__20"]Dissolvent subtype[/url] a look?

Argh. I'd use it for Vylons, but I can't equip more than one thing at a time. I'd use it for Morphtronics, but I can't attack directly. I'd use it for Ben Kei, but it's totally useless there. I would not have thought that two simple clauses would prevent a card from being useful for any serious purpose that an Equip Spell Card can serve. Your sniper-like precision is devastating...

Combine it with a Flint effect and it could make for some interesting shenanigans with protecting an empty field.
