Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Nightmare seems... odd. The part about it becoming level 4 is anyway. Why not just make it level 4? Is there a benefit to it being level 3 (Feelings for Future/Shift Up combo :p) It's good enough on Special Summon condition alone, but its other effects are just eh. Quetzle I really like. It's balanced in its Monk like effect. Not so sure about the second effect though. Doesn't that kinda stuff NGE up? Stone is good. Trooper is eh. Fortress is, well, not very fortress'ey in that its an offenseive card. It's good, I'd just suggest a theme change tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a benefit to it being level 3 (Feelings for Future/Shift Up combo :P) It's good enough on Special Summon condition alone, but its other effects are just eh. Prolly cause TGU is a card, but also because Photons have Level 3 monsters. Honestly, it was the latter I was thinking about when making the card and TGU just happened to fall in line. Quetzle I really like. It's balanced in its Monk like effect. Not so sure about the second effect though. Doesn't that kinda stuff NGE up? Perhaps, but it makes the player think more before using it as Xyz Material and I like that. Plus it follows the idea that Photons are anti-Xyz monsters. Stone is good. Trooper is eh. I was considering letting Trooper search any "Galaxy" spell if I made it discard 1 other LIGHT monster. Fortress is, well, not very fortress'ey in that its an offenseive card. It's good, I'd just suggest a theme change tbh. I need to make a better Death Star reference Q~Q Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee. Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Fortress becomes either Star or Destroyer.You already have Trooper, so just make more references =DAnd considering Galaxy-Eyes basically spawns out of nowhare and/or the surrounding light, wouldn't something like "Photon Galaxy Bulb" be more appropriate?Dunno' why I feel like rating the names, but ehh...Also Quetzle seems absolutely hilarious. Though, out of curiosity, why did you let it grab ANY Photon monster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or have it so that if you take damage from a Level 4 or lower LIGHT Machine-Type monster, your entire field blows up. Quetzle spawns GEPD, obviously :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilfusion Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 Nightmare is amusing and would definitely aid Photons in their otherwise mediocre spamming ability. It combos well with Thrasher, but also with Satellite. Being a Fiend makes Tour Guide fetch it, while not changing it to Level 4. I don't actually like the idea of Tour Guide being able to grab this, though. Quetzle can Summon any Photon monster? No drawbacks on stats, effects, attacking, or Battle Position? That's...kind of OPed. It's obviously meant to be done with Galaxy-Eyes, and that in itself makes it too good. Even Summoner Monk prevented the Summoned monster from attacking, in addition to only working on Level 4s, and Galaxy Expedition and Galaxy Knight SS GEPD in DEF. Quetzle's other effect bugs me, too. You have it written that detaching is a cost. However, if it's supposed to affect opponent monsters as wel, you cannot write that as a cost. You aren't allowed to use opponent resources as a cost. Detaching all Materials should be part of the effect. Photon Galaxy Stone is obviously a parallel to White Stone of Legend, and I'm amused that it's both a Photon and a Galaxy. Card is sweet just for that. The second effect...it's just abusable. Turning all Photons to Level 8 doesn't just give Neo-Galaxy a huge boost, it gives all Rank 8s an enormous boost. Your effects so far not only strive to boost Photons and Galaxy-Eyes, but also to spam monsters quickly and give them access to Neo-Galaxy with almost no downsides to this whatsoever. I'm all for making Photons competitive, but it seems a bit like overkill. Stormtrooper is...okay, I guess. Nothing really special about it, just a "discard to search Field Spell" monster. Galaxy Fortress. Hmm...the wording on its timing is a bit off. Declaring an attack, and before damage calculation, are two different timings. It's otherwise decently balanced in itself, although a Field that lets you draw once a turn just by having a monster attack is a little powerful, not even counting that you can SS any Photon from your hand once a turn with no drawbacks, and weaker Photons get a solid attack boost.

Agro Posted January 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 I did a little bit of editing so that the cards do what I want them to do. And I made Nightmare a Zombie. I also gave Stormtrooper another effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
玄魔の王 Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 I love how you took your Photon support in the "make Galaxy-Eyes good" direction, when I took [url=http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/295226-blinded-by-the-light-photons/]mine [/url] in the "oppose Xyz and support Neo Galaxy-Eyes" direction. Nightmare is good, and way better if he can't be abused by Tour Slut. Quetzle has a nice summon effect, but he does jack up the big man, so that's an issue. Photon Galaxy Stone is a great effect, but his name seems awkward from trying to shove both archetypes into it. Stormtrooper is either a field search or gets me Galaxy Knight, and Galaxy Fortress... I agree with the previous comments that it's misnamed, but great effect nonetheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
