Yubel Mastery Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 As you can tell by my username I am a Yubel Deck user. I've been playing Yubel for 5 years and the thought has always ran across my mind: What would make Yubel more on par with some of these meta-otk decks. So it took me a while but I think I have come up with a card that is decent enough to bring Yubel up a tear yet not so broken that this card cannot be considered realistic. Yeah the effect is long so ill re-post it: This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by its own effect. If a face-up "Yubel - The Ultimate Nightmare" is destroyed, you can pay half your Life Points to Special Summon this card from your hand or Graveyard. Cannot be targeted by Spells, Traps, or card effects. This card cannot be destroyed by battle. You take no Battle Damage from battles involving this card. At the end of the Damage Step, if this face-up Attack Position card battles with an opponent’s monster: Inflict damage equal to that monster’s ATK to your opponent, also destroy all face-up monsters your opponent controls. Using this card would bring Yubel decks so far. Its not broken due to the cost/condition to summon it and despite the fact that it cannot be targeted by Spells, Traps, or card effects; torrential is at 2, mirror force is at 2, and then there is dark hole so basically you would handle this card like you handle an Obelisk the Tormentor. Unlike Neos Wiseman that cannot be destroyed by card effects, one would not be able to have Terror Incarnate on the field and still expect this card to remain on the field as well at the end of their turn. As a Yubel user, I would run 1 of this card in my deck and use it when necessary. Only 1 due to it being able to be sent to the grave via Armageddon Knight, Dark Grepher, etc. and its also "Sanganable". This cards effect is broken into other card's effects that are not completely broken yet together make a decent card: "This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by its own effect. If a face-up "Yubel - The Ultimate Nightmare" is destroyed, you can pay half your Life Points to Special Summon this card from your hand or Graveyard." - this part of the effect is based off of Malefic Truth Dragon. "Cannot be targeted by Spells, Traps, or card effects." - this part of the effect is based off of Obelisk the Tormentor. "This card cannot be destroyed by battle. You take no Battle Damage from battles involving this card. At the end of the Damage Step, if this face-up Attack Position card battles with an opponent’s monster: Inflict damage equal to that monster’s ATK to your opponent," - this part of the effect is based off of Yubel - The Ultimate Nightmare "also destroy all face-up monsters your opponent controls." - and this part of the effect is once again based off of Malefic Truth Dragon. Sorry I don't have artwork for this card... I'm not really creative when it comes to stuff like that but knowing how Yubel gets as the forms progress; this form will probably be even creepier-looking than Ultimate Nightmare. Something on the lines of idk... Spider Legs, maybe 6 wings, with eyes, horns, and faces everywhere. Anyway hope you guys like the card and please give me some constructive criticism to make this card more realistic without taking from its true motive to allow the Yubel deck to continue despite the loss of Ultimate Nightmare.

DARKPLANT RISING Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 If you don't have a good pic, go to the Written Cards section. And well, no: I wouldn't run this in a current Yubel build, really. The thing is, the ace monster of the deck is Terror Incarnate. Without a doubt, too. You should know this if you've truly mastered the deck, as the Ultimate Nightmare is utter s*** compared to its pre-evolution form and it's only ran as a final assurance for when TI is killed. Advantage chances of this being ever summoned are greatly outweighed by the dead draws this can create. At least, in the current build. However, that doesn't necesarrily mean this is terrible, as its effect is infinitely superior to Terror Incarnate and Ultimate Nighmare combined. This could be ran in a deck dedicated to killing TI and UN as fast as possible to get this out. Problem is that that takes three times the destruction compared to when getting out TI, so that build'll probably win less compared to a normal one. Overall I would advice you to make this one of those "Fusions that don't get Fusion Summoned", if you get what I mean. Much like the Neo-Spacian NEX series. That way, this doesn't rot in your hand, and thus it can be easily used in normal Yubel builds as a new last resort. Yubel decks don't need the Extra much anyways. That'll make this perfect, as otherwise I can't find a single problem with this in both balance and usability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mehmani Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 I'm moving this to Written Cards. Don't post attachments, also. I like the depth with which you have written about your card, I encourage that. Good luck with all your cardmaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orochii Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 I also run a Yubel deck, it being my favorite card and also my fave season in GX. I would run this card because its a good backup after Nightmare. Also I have to disagree with Darkplant, sure Terror is the trumph card of a normal Yubel deck, but I have seen many a deck style based around Yubel where Nightmare is indeed the Ultimate Nightmare. My deck focuses around using the magical powers of Mystic Tomato, Snipe Hunter and The Calculator to rush Nightmare and keep a great defense. My only weakness so far is the annoying field destroyers that plague 80% of decks. Sure Terror is a great card but Nightmare, when used correctly, can cause opponents to slowly lose their mind over the OPness. But besides that yeah this is a good idea but I doubt they will make any further support for Yubel no matter how many people want it. I always wanted them to release an archetype that supports Yubel but alas no luck. Great idea anyway p.s. If you could choose a name for this card what would it be?

Yubel Mastery Posted September 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 If I were to name this card it would probably be "Yubel - The Dusk Cataclysm". I think that name is cool yet fitting for how Yubel is and how the effect works. So you don't think the effect is too broken? Does anything need to be changed? also I have a Konami Building near my house so maybe if I'm lucky I will be able to show them my idea and we can get the ball rolling. Just trying to make this card as balanced yet practical as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~British Soul~ Posted September 9, 2012 Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 I'm not embarrassed to admit i'm a Yubel fanboy, have been since she first appeared in the series and when the cards came out. Anyway I'm also a Yubel user, and I do agree with Darkplant that Terror Incarnate is the boss of the deck. With this card I wouldn't use it despite the fact that you can SS from the grave if you sent it there via Arma Knight or Dark Grepher, but the problem is it'll lie there (or in your hand) for most of the game and you might lose before you get a chance to use it, plus I might dead draw it when I could be drawing into something else. I'm not saying this is bad though, in fact I think the effect is quite threatening, but it requires more dedication to bring out.

Yubel Mastery Posted September 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2012 Of course Terror Incarnate is the savior of the deck with these mobbing decks like six sams and hieratics but with Terror Incarnate having 0 atk all the opponent has to do is not play any monsters and basically stall until they get the resources to stop Terror Incarnate and Ultimate Nightmare. With Ultimate Nightmare on the field, you can simply play monsters without having to worry about them being destroyed at the end of the turn. With this card I made you can simply pay the condition to stop your opponent from otking you and have a decent card on the field also. Worrying about this card being in your hand is like worrying about Ultimate Nightmare being in your hand; just another card for Dark Grepher's eff. It's a Yubel Deck, you're going to get dead hands. In the end, Terror Incarnate is not the boss card in the deck just the staller; Ultimate Nightmare backed up with other monsters is the real win condition and this card can do the same.

Not saying TI is the ace in every single Yubel build, but it IS the ace in every single realistic Yubel build. UN's effects are easily countered.

[/quote] Ultimate Nightmare is the ace card in my deck due to the fact that I have Safe Zone which makes Ultimate Nightmare much more difficult to counter. Terror Incarnate is just a stall and Ultimate Nightmare is the win condition. So I guess my Yubel Deck isn't a realistic Yubel Deck then...
