ragnarok1945 Posted September 10, 2011 Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 I don't get it Black you just said in the 1st sentence it can't be activated. Then the 2nd sentence you said activate its effect explain please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KcChiefsFan Posted September 10, 2011 Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 Yeah It's confusing but if it does what I think it does that's a cool cards. Nice pic too. Good OCG as far as I can tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pimp_7 Posted September 10, 2011 Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 The effect is nice, the idea is to use this card to activate a spell of your choice directly from your Deck. But the text is confused, and I guess this card is ovepowered too. It would be definetely banished in the next list if was a official card.

Blake Posted September 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 Then you can set and activate it. What I said is much more simple. You send Pot with Diamond Dude. then you activate Pot's effect (Not Pot) the next turn, and send, say, Ojama Delta Hurricane to the grave. Because Pot ignores Costs/Conditions, like Diamond Dude, it blows up the opponent's field. During your standby phase, you put this on top of your deck, and mill it for Diamond Dude. ... Come to think of it, I goofed on the design right there, so I need to edit it xD It now goes on top of deck during the MAIN Phase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-Max Posted September 10, 2011 Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 This card activates from the Grave allowing you to send 1 Spell from your Deck to the grave activating it instantly. Then this card can be placed back on top of your Deck for reuse. Great way to grab a Dark Hole or Heavy Storm when needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this card would have been better as just a Destiny HERO support card. You know, since it just amplifies Diamond Dude's effect. As far as I know, he's the only card who even has that effect, so it'd make some sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-Max Posted September 10, 2011 Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 How about a slightly alternate effect Black? "This card cannot be activated. By paying 1500 Life Points you can discard this card from your hand. When this card is removed from the field or discarded by its own effect, activate it.

J-Max Posted September 10, 2011 Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 1500 Life Points is to discard the Card, not activate it In other words it gets around its own effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
