[left]Lore: This card can only be Summoned by Banishing 1 "Peacemaker" you control and have 10 card banished by its effect; "Peacemaker" cannot be brought back into play for the rest of the duel. Once per turn, send 1 banished card to the Graveyard: Both players can select 1 Monster from the other player's hand; Special Summon it in Attack Position; If no Monster is selected for either player, each player takes 500 points of Damage; each player takes 1000 points of Damage if no Monster is selected at all.[/left]

[left]*I'm aware that on the card, the last part of the effect says, "...Damage if not Monster is selected at all." I do apologize, so I put the revised Lore right underneath it. Do excuse the mistake on the card.[/left]

[left][spoiler=Earlier notes regarded Peacemaker][/left]

A simple enough card, yeah. Now it's been a long while since I kept up with card making- actually, it's been a while since I kept up with the game at all. I'm not that much of a casual gamer anymore, so I don't know jack sh*t about the current meta, anti-meta, or whatever it is the hell you keep up with these days. /old-timer rant

But yeah, at first I wanted to call this something else, but Peacemaker, plain and simple, was enough for me. I personally think the card itself is balanced, while in use with other cards it can be a pain in the arse. But then again, when you use any card correctly, it becomes that much of a pain.
[/spoiler]

[spoiler=Notes regarded Peacemaker and now Agitator]
Originally, Peacemaker wasn't intended for Final Countdown or Stall/Burn decks, but seeing at it could be used, I figured it would be Forbidden. However, Peacemaker was originally meant for Agitator, or any future cards like Agitator, where a certain amount of card that were banished by Peacemaker's effect were required to Summon it (with Peacemaker being a cost as well).

Also, since both cards have names that relate to War/Peace type of wording, the title was renamed War Time Series, since I plan on making a mini-set at least.
[/spoiler]

Enough of my thoughts. How about yours? I'm starting to dabble a bit in card making again for certain reasons. Hopefully your comments (except a few), will help me out.

picture. is amazing.
ability. pretty balanced i'd think, by itself anyways. but like you said, with a combination of other cards, this could be a real hassle. I'd think just adding a small LP payment to keep it on the field, either every standby phase or when your opponent enters their battle phase, would make it just perfect. sort of like a

"[u]When your opponent enters their Battle Phase[/u], you can pay xxx Life Points. If you do not, send this card to the Graveyard." underlined part can be replaced with any other type of condition.

but that's just me. to make it balanced even in combination with other cards on the field.

atk, def, and level. perfect for its type of ability.

9/10. good job man.

I suppose I can add a small Life Point cost to keep it in play, such as the pay per Standby option.

But yeah, the ATK/DEF and Lvl where what I had in mind, which would only make it ironic for a high level, high ATK/DEF monster having such an effect.

In sudden retrospective, I find that it might be useful for D.D. Monsters.
Or was it D.D. Can't say I remember.

But I do appreciate the comment.

[Cray-Crow]

yeah. it was D. D. monsters. Or just put in a "Cannot be Special Summoned." in there. that always balances out effects.ha.

cool card

The card is well-balanced in my opinion. Its real cost is that it could be easily destroyed. Would you be willing to banish a card from the top of your deck to stop a 500 ATK creature from destroying it? It's a tough decision if there are 2 other 2000+ ATK creatures on the field.

I don't think you need to further balance it, I'm not sure many would actually use this card except D.D. or Gren Maju players anyway.
Very nice card, all in all.

Well there are always the few Monster or S/T effects that can prevent it from being destroyed.
But even if you have a monster with ATK/ 1 DEF/ WGAF, the effect can easily be used to a later advantage, while your opponent might just think you're just stalling or whatnot. Bring out a monster that's ATK is based on Banished cards, you got an instant beatstick.
This is like a foundation for said beatstick.

But now I feel like I should add a card that will make this more useful.

[Althemia]

Urgh. I don't like it... I can go into full detail as to why and yeah. It'll probably make you realize that this isn't good design in the slightest and the only deck that this will be played in is a deck that everyone already hates enough.

This card is a card that would only be played in 1 deck and 1 deck only: [url=http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Final_Countdown]Final Countdown[/url]. The card is enough to give the deck the additional little stall power as well as thinning power to not only stop your opponent's attacks, but actually get to the Countdown. This is also searchable by cards such as One for One and can easily provide the additional barrier that the deck needs to win.

I'm fairly sure that it's a perfectly fine card though. Just atrocious design because of the fact that Final Countdown exists and stall is just genuinely bad for the game.

[Synchronized]

The picture is extremely fitting to the card. Awesome.

That said, I dislike you for this. The only Deck that would use this card is Stall/Burn, and maybe Final Countdown, and no one likes to play against those Decks. I can't really say it's broken because it's pretty much completely balanced, it's just annoying and irritating design because of the fact that it accomplishes nothing except continue to stall.

I'll be honest, I don't keep up with the game at all. However, seeing the Final Countdown again, I can see why this card would be a bad addition to the game. The two would this card Forbidden instantly.

Thanks to JazinKay.

And I hope you don't mean literally.
Buy yeah, this gets the same response that I gave to Koko.

I was going to make this card a cost to a future card (or cards), that required a certain amount of cards Banished by this card's effect, but I wasn't entirely sure about that.

But nonetheless, I thank you both for the comments.

[font=courier new,courier,monospace]Of course I wasn't serious. Then again, I understand the complications in internet sarcasm. You seem perfectly nice. ^^;[/font]

[font=courier new,courier,monospace]Anyway, I suppose if you've got some plans to make it more than just a giant stall card, it's quite good.[/font]

Yeah, it can be fairly difficult to understand sometimes, especially if you're not familiar with the person.

And, no doubt would they be added to this page, all I need to do is edit the title. But after the cards for this are done, I'm moving on to a more "hopefully" competitive set.

I'll be sure to check back once it's updated, then. ^^;

Updated with a new card.

So yeah, I'm gonna bump this up a bit.
