Marco Polo Posted August 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2011 Great! I commented on every thread then this one sank, oh my fair behaviour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragnarok1945 Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 Sorcerer is a bit meh though 1800 to 2000 isn't much, so going to def position will be a drawback since it's easy to boost its atk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Polo Posted August 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 Sorcerer is meh on it's own, doesn't it balance things off when looking at all the ways those guys can OTK/TTK? (They're not really suppoused to stay on the field during your next turns as an OTK build.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crystal Remnants Posted August 23, 2011 Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Wow, these cards are great! I love the pics, and the name is awesome! I've studied Greek mythology, so I know about Elysium, and I think it's really cool that you used that name for your cards. It seems to me that you've made a nice, banish-based Light monster archetype. It looks like it would work very well together, and I hope you continue! I do, however, think that Moving Toad Shrine is a tad bit OPed. You can use it to summon ANY Elysium monster, and once it's destroyed, it boosts the power of the rest of your monsters, seeing as how they all benefit from banished monsters. Also, cards like Elysium Reincarnation follow along the idea that you can use easy to summon monsters as fodder for the stronger ones, such as Sorcerer. This kind of playability would make Sorcerer way to formidable. Of course, with the Meta being filled with cards like D. Prison and what not, it could be taken down quickly. I'll input more once I see some trap cards, but for now: 9/10 Hope to see more! P.S. Sorry that your great set is ignored. You seem to put a lot of effort into it, but instead of reviewing yours, people seem to go and check out 1 and 2-star members' cards, which, as we both know, are usually crap. Not always, but like, 99% of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Polo Posted August 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2011 Thanks, I really needed it. I made a Trap Card, A Moirae's Weaving. ([i]Moiraes, aka the Sisters of Fate, were 3 sisters in the greek myths which determined the life of every Titan, Mortal or God.[/i]) Enjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dugal Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 la zeng is somewhat oped considering you got some powerful cards out there, that card could win you the duel in like 4 different seconds, the rest however are pretty much balanced and i love the pics (9.2364) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crystal Remnants Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 I like the trap, it's very interesting. Sorry you still aren't getting comments. I guess people just find it easier to comment on cards that aren't creative, which is why they do :/ Anyways, OCG fix on "A Moirae's Weaving" Lore: Activate only when your opponent activates a Trap Card while you control 1 or more "Elysium" monster(s): Return 2 banished monsters to their owners' Graveyard(s) and Tribute 1 "Elysium" monster you control; [b]End the current turn and skip directly to your next Battle Phase[/b]. This effect can only be activated once per Duel. I'm pretty sure that's correct. Not exactly sure how to word the bolded part, but it seems okay for now. If the Your.Dek contest was still going on, I'd definitely think this set would do well. Where'd you get the pics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Polo Posted August 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 Most pics are from HP_Doom's image archive. And thank god you two commented, needed feedback. The fitting pics are quite hard to find but I got a few as a backup, so I might make a card or two soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inferno I20 Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 I like the archetype but they dont really have a lot of synergy with each other. Their effects that focus on banishing or removing from play monsters is very good. Its funnny because my recent archetype does the same thing lol My suggestion is to make them more banish-spammy, if you know what I mean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L0SS Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 The cards you've made are interesting. It's a real nice idea, you have obviously thought it out well. They only real problem I have with it is Elysium Sorcerer seems too easy bring into play. And with something like Mask of Enlightenment, there is absolutely no cost to bring him out, and with no cost paid out before the card is destroyed. Nerf that card and I think your balancing should be perfect. It's a really nice set of cards that are entirely credible. Just clear up that little hitch and you'll be onto a winner. 8.5/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MibeR Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 I didnt catch a "real" Synchronization in this Deck? what theme it plays? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Polo Posted August 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 Field-swarming-banishing OTK. Just try to imagine up to 2 turns with this set. And it will be clearer, I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
