The Ultimate Tyrant

[MaliceACard]

I feel as though I have made this card as balanced as I could but I still feel it is overpowered. I will be making a set but I want some thoughts on this one. I am unsure what direction I will go with the set but this is meant to be the strongest monster in it. So if you have a way to make it seem less overpowered with out taking away from it's attack, please tell me.

[spoiler original]

 

Effect: This card can only be summoned when you banish 5 level 5 Fiend-type monster from your graveyard and pay the price of 1000 life points. This card can only attack when you send a card from your hand to the graveyard. When this card inflicts battle damage to your opponent, you loose 500 life points.  [/spoiler]

 

I decided to keep the original on here, but here is the new version. I feel this one has made it a little more playable and made it more realistic but still powerful.

 

 

 

Effect: Banish 3 level 5 Fiend-type monster from your graveyard to special summon this card from your hand. This card cannot attack on the turn it was summoned. When this card attacks successfully banish 2 Fiend-type monsters from your deck.

Very bland. I won't be fixing the OCG, but be suggesting an effect that would make this guy not OP, as well as new stats. (I know he isn't OP really, but, he just doesn't belong. RC doesn't produce cards of this crazy an ATK stat, because neither would Konami. And seriously, they made Dragon Rulers. Come on.)

So, again, not an OCG fix, so please don't say I broke the AC because the post reached longer by OCG Fix:

********* (10)

Fiend/Effect

"Banish 3 Level 5 Fiend-Type monsters in your Graveyard: Special Summon this card (from your hand). This card cannot declare an attack. Once per turn: You can discard 1 card; this card can attack this turn."

ATK: 4000/DEF: 1500

 

While the card still is lackluster and uncreative, 5500ATK shouldn't be put on a card, as the highest to date is 5000.

 

Off topic: Your avatar and signature of dolls really creeps me out. I read your posts and imagine a very depressed, over exaggerated and horribly performed Ghost voice.

I rather like this better then the effect I put on it, I will alter the card around this but I will not use it exactly. This is why I wanted to post this first one before I made the whole set. While I want the set to be powerful I still want it to be considered realistic but that can be hard to do the first time around. Also I am glad you like my avatar and signature, that was kind of the point of it, to creep people out. XD

I distinctly dislike them and every time I see your post I kind of try to speed read and move away so I no longer see them...

I suggest 4000 because 4500 is still "reserved", so to say. That is the zone of which the Rivals in the anime reserve their boss monsters (and one protagonist's partner fusion and a random, but all are Extra Deck monsters, making this card seem rather unrealistic as a whole), so this guy randomly barging in on that territory is quite unsettling. I feel any monster that NEEDS to have a high ATK shouldn't be anywhere above 4000 (See: Obelisk/Wicked Dreadroot/Arcana Force Light/Dark etc.)

[MaliceACard]

I see your point, now that I think of it I think the strongest card I have seen in person that wasn't a fusion and not Obelisk is a card that I own, "Theinen The Great Sphinx" and he only has 3500. I have changed the attack to 4000 and once again gave it a higher defense. Thanks for the help on this one.

The wording remains off.

"Banish 4 Level 5 Fiend-Type Monsters from your Graveyard: Special Summon this card (from your hand). This card cannot attack the turn it was Summoned. This card cannot declare an attack. You can discard 1 card to negate this effect, until the End Phase."

 

[Note, the cost is too much. 3 is fine, really.] [The card shouldn't have "Summoning Sickness", allow it to attack.] [Really, now that it is 4000 ATK, it doesn't need such a stiff cost to attack. Perhaps make it banish the top two cards of your Deck each time it attacks. It would end up looking like the following:]

 

"Banish 3 Level 5 Fiend-Type Monsters from your Graveyard: Special Summon this card (from your hand). When this card declares an attack; banish the top 2 cards of your Deck."

This way, the card still boasts some sort of power while not totally sucking.

With all that being said, I have changed it in a way that I think will suit the set. I have decided to make the set focus around banishment.
