Trying to make good stuff again (Forbidden Arcane Magician)


Sora1499

Recommended Posts

Some of my recent cards have sucked, like, really badly, and tha pisses me the hell off. I made better cards before I started playing Yugioh again, and that makes a bit of a statement. So, I've decided to get back into card making and give this whole charade a round 2. I hope you guys like this new single, I'll be posting stuff like him more often.

Anyways, as for this card: I'm considering changing the summon effect to banishing 2 spells from the grave instead of 2 traps (in fact, I'll probably end up going with this) and adding a clause that makes you unable to use the set card you negated during the turn. But idk, my sense of balance is s*** nowadays.

Comment, review, rate, hate, whatever. Enjoy!

Sora, I must say, this is probably 1 of the best cards you have ever made...


The creativity is amazing, its summoning effect was perfect, its effect (especially tributing himself to set the spell/trap) was great.

In my opinion, this card was greatly balanced.

10/10 - Don't let it go to your head. Hell?! What am I saying?! Let it all go to your head, man!:D

Too easy of a summoning condition, even more considering that traps in the graveyard rarely are useful, which means you're not really paying a cost or anything. Also I'd rarely if ever use its second effect, which means giving up a 2600 beatstick for a spell, only if it had been Fiendish'd or something.

I feel like you should therefore strengthen the second effect, by allowing you to choose any Spell Card, not just the one negated. It would be like a second Magical Stone, then, -2 (Spell Drop for negate and actual card) for a +1 Spell of your choice. Or would that be too powerful?

I'm hesitant on doing that because it might be a tad too strong.

That's pretty crazy, a 2600 beatstick for banishing 2 useless cards in grave is alone a great card.

Except the summoning cost makes it slow instead of wicked fast. The ATK stays: 2600 ain't much.

Of course, it isn't suitable for early game, but yeah, 2600 is a lot. Enough to run over most meta's non-boss monsters. And all that for virtually no cost. Considering people often get out Gem-Knight Pearl which has the same ATK for the same purpose while this one does not require you to give up on any monster and still has added effects, I say this actually needs a nerf.
