Name: Old Golem - Earth's King

Eff:If this card attacks or is attacked, during damage calculation : You can pay 1500 Life Points once per battle; this card gains 1000 DEF during that damage calculation only.During the End Phase, if this card was Special Summoned: Send it to the Graveyard. Once per turn, you can change this card to face-down Defense Position.

Whut do u think about that?

It's not a bad card, nice strong wall. Great if you love stalling and dealing dealing damage to your opponent (tokens plus battle mania), but for (that type of deck) Stone Statue of the Aztecs does this better(the damage part). It's not bad, but I don't think it's useful either.

It's somewhat funny that you gave it a flip face-down effect, especially because I believe I made a card a while back using the same picture and a similar effect. It's strikingly similar to a lot of the Rock-Type monsters like Golem Sentry and the likes.

As for the card itself, it's very under-powered, to the point of being nearly useless. The ability to pay the Life Points is cool and all, but your opponent isn't going to bother attacking if they can't run it over, and even if they did, perhaps it would be worth taking the 500-600 points of damage to force you to pay 1500.

If the goal is just to set it so the opponent attacks and takes damage, you'd be better off running Millenium Shield, because you could catch the opponent off guard and do damage, but even that isn't a worthwhile strategy. There's not much of a point in it.

For just a simple, basic card, it's very well done though. It's just not practical.
