Xi-3 Posted February 7, 2012 Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 What's 'execration?' This card has incredibly hard and specific summoning requirements. Have you tested it to see if that is possible to do in a duel? I assume the Level-5 would be first, and then you could bring out all the others for this summon. I'm guessing a bunch of Special Summons with cards that do Level-4 and lower monsters? That would work, but it would be really ironic if your opponent saw this coming and set up amore powerful monster to take this one down the instant yuou summoned it. That's pretty much it's only weakness, but that's why it's 'balanced,' right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKPLANT RISING Posted February 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 [url=http://www.thefreedictionary.com/execration]Google. It exists for a reason.[/url] Even if this got printed, it will be nothing more than the typical "casual deck idea". But I made it more usable than Sophia by making it also SS-able from the Graveyard. Valid ideas for summoning this: Level 5: Cydra, etc. Level 4: Armageddon Knight, just because it can drop this guy or a Plaguespreader Zombie Level 3: T.G. Warwolf, Spell Striker, etc. Level 2: Aforementioned Plaguespreader Zombie, etc. Level 1: Tokens, Unknown Synchron, Glow-Up Bulb, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xi-3 Posted February 7, 2012 Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 It's not an easy word, and very close to a different and unfortunate word (although not many kids will know it, thankfully). If a word in a card makes me reach for a dictionary I often prefer to use a simpler word just to make it easier for others to understand. My personal suggestion would be to rename it 'Eldricht's Hateful Curse.' That is, of course, only my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKPLANT RISING Posted February 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 Ohohohohohoho, you don't get my point. I used a complicated word people will have to look through the dictionary for on purpose, in order to make me look smarter and my cards more epic. Apart from the fact including the letter "X" in a name makes it 20% better on its own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing in common they have is the fact they're both really hard to summon. Also, for the last effect, cards and effects can't be activated in response to which of this card's effectS? If it's all its effs, then maybe put effect[b]S[/b] in the end? And this is pretty much an instant win condition, more than Sophia. But then again, all cards that have a similar effect to this are banned- Cyber Stein/ Temple of the Kings/etc And for a reason. I don't think an alternative to SS-ing Quasar is a good idea. but if we're talking strictly fun/casual play, I actually like this a lot. (maybe put a level restriction to the SS'ed Extra Deck monster) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xi-3 Posted February 7, 2012 Report Share Posted February 7, 2012 Oh, believe me I know how using 'X' automatically makes things cooler. I also know that using big words does not make you look smarter: they just confuse the people you're trying to convince you're smart. But then, if you'd prefer to [url="http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/Obfuscate"]obfuscate[/url] rather than being clear that's completely up to you.

[/quote] I'm guessing you searched for that word. Anyway, I don't think that it'll be hard to SS since there are probably cards out there that enable SS of lower Level monsters and play Gravity Bind or something like that until you get the Level 5 out. I agree with Gandorator about putting a limit on the level of the Extra Deck monster I really like this card... so I'll give it an 9/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARKPLANT RISING Posted February 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 [quote name='HiZOMBIRyouken' timestamp='1328638353' post='5802631']play Gravity Bind or something like that until you get the Level 5 out. [/quote] If a deck can't get rid of Gravity Bind in under 3 turns, it's either got a bad hand or sucks. -.- Well, I was sorta being fun with Quasar, but yeah, on second thought that's a bit too much. And Armityle too. Thanks guys, changing it to Level 8 or lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xi-3 Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 I did look for the word, but I was close... sort of. I had 'offiscate,' or something like that. I knew that was wrong, so I looked for the word that I knew I meant to use. I don't use 'obfuscate' often, because usually my objective is to make things clear. Often if someone is using a three syllable or longer word they'll get someone else confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
