Volitilis Amanita, the Batshroom (Self Drawn)

[-DOOM]

Especially proud of this one. The first time I made a proper Custom Image with a self drawn creature.

 

 

 

 

And it doesn't look too bad.

 

 

LORE:

 

Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. If you control a face-up EARTH Plant-Monser, you can Special Summon this card from your hand. If you do, send 1 card from your hand or field to your Graveyard. Once during either Player's turn, when a Plant-Type monster is targeted, target 1 card on the field and banish it. It is returned to the field during the next Standby Phase. If this card that was Special Summoned is sent to the Graveyard: During the next End Phase, add 1 "Volitilis Amanita, the Batshroom" from your Deck to your hand.

I'm glad to see a card of your own once again Doom. Anyway, there are some issues here:

"...send 1 card from your hand or field to your Graveyard." the way this is worded makes me thing that you can send your opponent cards on the field to the Graveyard.
"...when a Plant-Type monster is targeted..."  targeted for what? an attack or an effect?

I like the general idea behind the protection effect, but, I find this without use other than, as I said, protection. I can't find of any useful EARTH Plant-Type monster right now /:

But, being a level 4 with 2K it's kind of nice.

Well, that wasn't intended. However, doesn't the "your" in there refers to both of them?

Simply targeted. For an effect, attack, by you or your opponent, doesn't matter.

 

The uses are there. For example, you can target it and then remove from play 1 card your opponent controls (an XYZ, which will lose its materials).

HP Doom? How long has it been?

 

Anyway, This card could do well in a Plant Deck, considering it could just toss Dandylion and gain two tokens with this. Problem is, that just give Dandylion another way to go off with not only two tokens following but a 2k beater to go with it. Remove from play is banish btw, so I suggest you change that. TBH, it's searching effect is a bit too slow for my taste. And even though I said some good things about it, I don't think it would fit in with the remnants of what Plants are these days. I mean, you could make a new Deck with this, but the current build may not accommodate this well. Also, you could just use a card like Forbidden Lance to easily clear the last monster on your opponent's field to deal major damage if you chose to. All in all, this card is troublesome imho.

Troublesome because it is too good or because it doesn't fit?

Troublesome because it is too good or because it doesn't fit?

 

A mixture of both. For the most part, I don't think it'll fit in a Plant Deck unless it is geared towards beaters like this. When that is accomplished, then it goes towards it being a bit too good.

Then it is actually balanced, I think.

Not necessarily. While it may not fit in the Synchro-happy Plant deck people know and love, it can be made into a hybrid deck with beaters and the Syncrhro-happy. So yea, it isn't as balanced as you think. Like I said, Dandylion says hi. Also, Spore is still around to have a little fun with the hybrid deck. Also, I forgot to mention Gigaplants. So yea, beaters ahoy!
