✖ The Apocalypse ✖ 2/40 ✖ Introducing Apocalyptic Sub-Type ✖

[Classic]

[font="Century Gothic"][center][color="#000080"]Okay! I was working on a idea for a card yesterday and I had an idea for a Sub-Type, a quite OP'd Sub-Type while on the field but with some devastating drawbacks as well. The base size for this set is 40 cards that may be expanded if necessary. [/color]

Effect:
This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card can only be Special Summoned by banishing all cards you control, in your Graveyard, and the top half of the remaining cards in your Deck. There can only be 1 Apocalyptic Monster on your side of the field. This card cannot be the direct target of Spell, Trap, and Monster effects. As long as this card remains face-up on the field decrease the ATK and DEF of your opponent's Monsters by 500. If this card destroys a Defense Position Monster, inflict damage to your opponent equal to the destroyed Monster's level x 300. If this card is destroyed halve your Life Points.[/spoiler][spoiler=✖ APCLT-HT001 ✖ Volatile Behemoth ✖ Effect Monster]

Effect:
If this card targets an opposing non Dragon-Type Monster for an attack, increase this card's ATK by 2000 until the end of the Damage Step. If this card destroys an opponent's Monster by battle place 1 'Frenzy Counter' on this card. This card gains 150 ATK for every 'Frenzy Counter' on it. If this card has 6 'Frenzy Counters' on it, destroy this card.[/spoiler]

Melina is a bit OP, even though you have to banish so many cards mainly because it does not require you to have any cards in the Graveyard or on the field. If you drew her on your first hand you would be almost unstoppabble. Also, you get to keep every card from your hand* Possibly state somewhere in her effect that you have to have at least 3-5 Apocalyptic monster cards in the Graveyard or on the field in order to Special Summon her. Another thing that you have realise is that there are cards that Special Summoned monsters from the out of play zone and ones that gain strength for the amount out of play creatures, and for that I think this can be OP. IDK, I just dont see how you could make this card balanced without both decreasing its power, and its drawbacks.

Behemoth may be just a little OP, but at least it only gains that much ATK when facing non Dragon-Type monsters and only while attacking. I think overall it is quite balanced though; if you did anything I would only recommend lowering the attack bonus to 1800, or the base attack of the card to 200.

Well thanks for insightful review ^^

On the Melina comments I was actually thinking of adding a note that 'cards banished by this effect are not affected by card effects' so they cannot be brought back into the game and cannot increase the ATK of cards like 'Helios - The Primordial Sun'

And I'm still working out the cliches on this Sub-Type just wanted to release a beta version.
Anyways thanks for review

for the 2nd card I'm unsure if 2000 atk boost is a bit too much or not, I'd have made it only 1500

for Melina, you should take out the burn effect, it's powerful enough without it

8/10

Thanks for feedback ^^. I will think about the suggestions.
