Bring on the Singularity!

The Dissolver subtype is going even better than planned! However, a new issue is at hand: the new effect format. As anyone who follows me on a regular basis knows, my preferred OCG format dates back to roughly 2005. I haven't really made an effort to keep up until now. This is my first attempt at using the new OCG.

5 turns after the activation of this card: All non-Machine, Fiend, Zombie, and Rock-type monsters are also treated as Machine-type monsters for the remainder of the duel.[/spoiler][/spoiler]

I'm guessing 5 turns, kind like how Final Countdown would work. And that since it says "also" that they are machines in addition to other types.


OT: OCG seems good, pic could have been better though. 8/10

You're right on the effect, but the pic is actually from Cory Doctorow's seminal Singularity novel [i]Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom.[/i]

Hrm. Adding a type onto a card without changing it's mechanics in it's own deck. Used properly, this could result in some devastating combos. The 5-turn countdown would give it the drawback of latent activation, but could also let your opponent forget about it until you use it again. So, I think this is a pretty good card.

Out of curiosity, why did you pick those four types out of all of them? Machine, Fiend, Zombie, Rock? How are they connected?

[i]Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom[/i] concerns people that have various mechanical enhancements, allowing them to essentially live forever. Machine, Fiend, Zombie, Rock are what I consider the "inorganic" types. Fiend is a bit fuzzy, but the rest aren't necessarily living to begin with. There isn't a life to enhance, so to speak. That and it's a bit of a balancing thing.
