'Extreme' gambling indeed! I love your idea with the synchro, threading two different gambling devices into one effect. Also, I really like how you balanced Berserk Demon's 2500 at Lv. 4 with his effects, and I do think it balances beautifully. I'ma likin' what I'ma seein'!

[ragnarok1945]

for Berserk Demon, the heads effect should do more than just not punish you

 

Necro Priest you should have made an alternative, in case the number of cards in your hand is lower than the number the dice result is

 

plus the 100 LP loss effect is virtually nothing

[AuroraM]

for Berserk Demon, the heads effect should do more than just not punish you

I really disagree with this. It's got 2500 ATK, and it's a Level 4. That's why the effect is so harsh. Usually things with 2000 ATK have drawbacks, be it effect restriction or having 100 DEF and no effect whatsoever. This breaks the usual Level 4 cap by 500, and I think the effect does it well.

Well, you just lost your entire hand.... but i'll add an alternative if you cannot discard the number shown.

Thanks for all the positive support, I appreciate it.

 

fixed Necro Priest and added new cards.

[AuroraM]

Quick question on the Mini Gladiator. It says "If tails this card's level becomes two." But...it's already Level 2. Sooo...I'm confused there. Sorry if it's a blonde moment on my part XD

yes but you have paid lifepoints to increase the level, if tails you revert it back to its normal level.

[gimmepie]

These are risky... They would never get used (except maybe Beserk Demon) but they are brilliantly done anyway.

Demon needs to have a heavy draw back like it does since its a level four with 2500.

Reaper could almost be a level four except that it steal five-heads attack or something.

I also like the integration of coins and dice for your synchro. Since he is a synchro I'd give him a more passive effect then a draw back or one such as your opponent also losing their hand.

 

Ragnarok is right if you want a draw back 100 is WAY to little. Try 1000.

... you all neglect the fact that you don't draw any new cards with necro priest if tails. If tails you lose 100 LP and lose your entire hand.

[Sander]

All the cards here are fine, except for Berserk Demon, which is really just over the top. A 2500 beater with the downside of 1000...ehhh, makes too much of an impact with Skill Drain and Horn of the Phantom Beast imo.

The effect doesn't really state that you discard your entire hand if you don't roll anything higher than 3, but that doesn't really matter, since you did lose cards etc. etc.

[Admiral Tim]

anyways, thanks for the criticism. Added "Rocket kid" and "Armor Soul", the OCG is a bit shaky but there you go, maybe one more card and ill call it a day.

[Admiral Tim]

bump, more cards up soon.

[ragnarok1945]

Armor Soul's atk gain is really good, can easily get this to 4500 atk right away, even if it's only 1 turn

 

the drawback should be fine for it given its weak 1500 def. Not much, but it's certainly better compared to Goblin Attack Force's effect in going to def and then having a def of 0

 

for Rocket Kid it's fine for the effect, but even with the 500 atk gain, 500 direct damage is very little

 

I'd have given it a base atk of 500 instead

Ok thanks. Will change Rocket Kid.

[ragnarok1945]

no problem, see even 1000 direct battle damage isn't huge, but it's better than 500 which is near negligible

[Admiral Tim]

fixed Rocket Kid.

[ragnarok1945]

which is good, when can we expect the next gambler to be up?

[Admiral Tim]

added "blazing Chariot"

[ragnarok1945]

nice, coin flip and dice roll effect, which is fine

 

the burn to both you and your opponent really isn't all that much though

 

still, it's an equal amount so there's nothing really imbalanced about it

[Admiral Tim]

thanks and WOOT! First spell card up!

[ragnarok1945]

problem is the tails effect doesn't really punish you or anything like that

 

heads is fine I guess

 

just so you know, tokens can't be used for xyz summoning anyway, so you don't need to point that out

[Admiral Tim]

ok thanks

 

fixed bone troops and added lightning pentagon.

[ragnarok1945]

all right, for lightning pentagon, the 400 LP loss effect is virtually nothing to you

 

and it's going to be a HUGE pain upon summoning since it's not that easy to get 5 cards into your hand

 

in addition you forgot a effect: what happens if you get 0 heads?

ok I'll have to think about that.

[DickAnderson]

I absolutely love these, I would like to have a few of them in my deck.
