Alpakha Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 [img]http://i.imgur.com/QaMg0.jpg[/img] [spoiler=Lore]Activate this effect only when a monster you control (except a Token Monster) is targeted by your opponent's card effect: Special Summon 1 Covershield Token (Beast-Type/LIGHT/Level 1/ATK 1000/DEF 1000) in Defense Position and change the target of your opponent's card effect to the Token. If this Set card is destroyed by your opponent's card, you can discard 1 card to add this card to your hand.[/spoiler] It can effectively protect your monster, but there are so many spell/trap destruction cards so I added a recycling effect.

Yatamoto32 Posted October 28, 2012 Report Share Posted October 28, 2012 Nice! This is a very useful card, almost a staple in defence. It has great OCG and awesome photo. 10/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpakha Posted October 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 Alright cool thanks, but you should really learn the advance clause before you reach 100 posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garthfunkle Vii Backwards Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 The picture is fine. the effect is fine.1000 ATK is okay but 1000 DEF?, I would change that! It should be at least 2000 DEF but, anything more than that would make this broken! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how many cards run monster removal that targets nowadays. The only thing that comes into mind is Scrap Dragon, Atlanteans, Stardust and BTH. (BTH is Bottomless Trap Hole, not some ungodly mispronunciation of "To Be Honest".) It's outclassed in whatever it's supposed to do by Forbidden Lance. (If you don't know what it is, look it up. I haven't got all day.) Lance protects your cards much better from Dark Hole/Mirror Force/TT/Bottomless and it also gets over huge monsters. Either you make the activation cost: "When a Monster you control would be destroyed by your Opponent's card effect..." OR give it this effect instead: "....[size=4][color=#5A5A5A][font=tahoma, helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Special Summon 1 Covershield Token (Beast-Type/LIGHT/Level 1/ATK 1000/DEF 1000) in Defense Position and Negate the activation of that card." [/font][/color][color=#000000]I think it's a lot better that way, since there are not many cards that Target nowadays. [/color][/size] [color=#000000]Also, your mocking does not impress me. Humph. Now you've put me in a bad mood.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aix Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 I feel like this card is like an altered "Forbidden" card, though with less drawbacks and the recycling effect. Targeting is used less often, I suppose, but it would be great in the case of your opponent's Effect Veiler, which is still used, and then not only did you protect your monster, but you also get Tribute/Synchro fodder or a meat shield. It wouldn't do much against Battle Phase traps either, because of the Semi-Limiting of Mirror Force. I believe it's balanced, but a lot already covered in the "Forbidden" series and we really don't need this. The new "Forbidden" card that is coming out, "Forbidden Dress", will cover both targeting [i]and [/i]destruction by effects. It's a cool idea, but already made-ish.

.Exa Posted October 29, 2012 Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 The card is good and the OCG is flawless. There's only one error. "Covershield Token" - goes into these > "" (and because my brain is stupid, I forgot how they're called) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpakha Posted October 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2012 I think you guys are ignoring that is negates TARGETING not just destruction. It protects from Lance, scrap, [s]smashing ground[/s] (whoops, i mean soul taker), mind control..., soul exchange (if facing monarchs), etc. Anyway, thanks for the comments. @Toyo It wasn't meant to mock you exactly, just to attract attention.. or whatever excuse I can think of...

Aix Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 I would think that it would simply become useless like how when you D.D. Crow when your opponent uses Monster Reborn or Pot of Avarice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
