Zazubat Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Really not a fan, an extra heavy, which I really do not support in any way. The damage is a weird thing which I don't really see why is even there. I also don't get the last part. If it's face-down, will it be shown? Also, it doesn't say where it gets destroyed from, I assume on the field, so probably add thtat, but really it's not a good design at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wave_Sine Posted April 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Fixed ambiguous area-of-effect location. I guess I'm too used to Magic and the fact that if a location isn't specified on a 'world effect' spell (such as Final Judgement: "Exile all creatures.") that the field is the default.I'm not sure how to better word the negation portion of the effect to only be in effect for as long as the chain is resolving, but a similar effect is on 'Trap Stun', which has a longer duration of the negation effect and does not force Trap cards to be revealed.Macro can already run 4x Dark Hole with Grand Cross, so this card is really a logical extension of that, even if it is poor design. Grand Cross is similarly poor design, being a quick-play Dark Hole, only restricted by the presence of a 'Macro Cosmos' under your control. As this also has the limitation of requiring 'Macro Cosmos' to be face-up under your control to be used, it isn't broken regardless of how poor it's design is, or so it's been implied by other members of this site in the TCG section.

玄魔の王 Posted April 7, 2013 Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 Grand Cross sees no play because of its requiresment of Macro. This thing might, because Spells and Traps are bigger enemies for the deck (most monsters are hindered by Macro as is).

Wave_Sine Posted April 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2013 True, but a quick-play Dark Hole is still terrible design, even if it's hard to use because of the Macro requirement.How would you suggest I word the negation effect to only work on the chain? The way it's worded currently, it would negate all other face-up Spell and Trap cards that aren't itself or Macro indefinitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It boosts anti-meta Macro a bit, by clearing out problems for the deck, while also protecting Macro from MST and Heavy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
