Cards that unite many Counter-based archetypes into one

[Bleaknight]

 

You can remove 1 Counter each of 3 types of Counters from anywhere on your side of the field; Special Summon this card from your hand or Graveyard and place 1 Primordial Counter on it. Any Counter placed on this card becomes a Primordial Counter. If you would remove any type(s) of Counter(s) from cards you control, you can remove Primordial Counters from this card instead. If a monster you control with a Chakra Counter(s) would be destroyed, you can remove 1 Chakra Counter from it instead.

 

Target 1 monster you control with 2 or more types of Counters and declare 2 of them; remove any number of Counters of 1 declared type from it, then place a number of Counters of 1 other declared type on it, up to the number of this type of Counter previously on that target.

 

Target 1 monster you control with a Counter(s); double the number of each type of Counter on it. If you do, during each of your End Phases, send it to the Graveyard unless you remove 2 of any Counters from it. You can only activate 1 "Chakra Frequency Amplifier" per turn.

 

As you can see, the "Chakra" archetype's concept is to unite many different sources of different Counter types and make them all usable at once. All constructive comments are accepted!

Bump.

Damn, funny how if you make a completely lackluster, generic, unbalanced and badly worded card you get 10 replies while a very unique concept gets none.

Counters is a kinda complex theme to have, I guess that has something to do with the lack of comments. And by "complex" I mean it in the "I'm too lazy to read all that" way.

 

Channeler is alright, but do you have a way to refill it's Chakra Counter? 

I know it's a +1, but I can't help but think not belonging to any of the archtypes it supports still hurts it a little.

That effect, with a "You can only use this effect once per turn" clause, and in a Continuous Spell Card, would have made it more effective, because of these cards:

Also, while you are at it, does it really abuse anything if the card becomes able to also search Level 5 or higher targets? I think it could get away with it.

 

 

Shakra Ressonance, I think this is the one that could have been the monster. It's the kind of effect that's situational if it is not recurring in the theme, since otherwise two halfs of your deck don't really communicate with one another.

One single complain I'd say deserves mention, is it's interaction with Hyper Venom Counters (Vennominaga's Win Condition). Other than that, it looks like a neat idea. regular Venom Counters and A-Counters would be the most compatible ones, since both focus on Reptiles and both decrease ATK stats. You'd keep switching back and forth according to what is currently most convenient.

 

Frequency Amplifyer

Again, Hyper-Venom Counter worries exist, though moving on....

This card would probably shine more as an Equip Spell Card. It already just focuses on a monster anyways, and that way you could word it more easily, and recycle it in-game with "Hidden Armory", which benefits Spell Counters for obvious reasons.

We also all know the monster will be used for a Synchro/Xyz, sooo.. what if you? err.. *thinks*

What if you just make the destroying effect happen at the End Phase as an automatic continuous effect? It'll probably result in interesting plays with the 2 IRL card images I posted above. Oh, and "Collected Power" will troll with it, but I wouldn't call it abusive.

 

 

Wyvern has an amazing image, but I don't really think it has a place.... and it should give Shakra Counters to not add yet a 4th kind of Counter to the already complex mix. I really don't know what to say about that one, which is why I left it to the end.

 

..... that's my review...
