Lore: When this card fight fight against an Xyz monster, destroy it and inflict to your opponent damage equal to his ATK.

It's a great concept, but it needs to have more of a cost, or a higher difficulty in summoning if it's going to be able to just kill off a monster and do burn damage at the same time. I suggest adding a discard, banish from grave, or banish from top deck cost if you want to have a monster like that. there are quite a few ways around a 1500 monster, but for a monster with 1500 attack to be able to not only kill monsters that have 2500+ ATK, that (usually) take some sort of investment to pull out, but also burn for serious damage. it needs to have a cost that can even out the damages. I like the idea of the card, but similar to how cards like ophion and shock master have either limits, or a cost to their abilities, reaper should have a few either restrictions, or checks to his ability, otherwise he becomes a 4 star xyz killing version of catastor.

 

also, a minor detail you should add is a line to make the destruction effect occur before damage calculation like grand mole and catastor have. otherwise his effect would actually be fairly pointless because he would die at the same time. but then again, that might actually balance out the effect, but I'm not sure on the rulings for that kind of scenario right now.

I can make that: You can summon this card only when one of your monster is destroyed by a xyz monster your opponent control. When this card fight against a xyz monster, end the battle and destroy it.

Corrected text.

"You may Special Summon this card from your hand when a monster on your side of the field is destroyed by an Xyz monster that your opponent controls. When this monster attacks an Xyz monster, send the monster to the Graveyard"

 

At least I think that's it.

Making it (semi-)nomi would severely hinder this card's ability should it be changed to only being an anti-Xyz Catastor with no burning whatsoever. Letting it SS itself, though, would be a nice touch since the game is so fast that Normal Summons suck. There is a plethora of effect destruction out here, and a lot of it is packed into Xyz Monsters. An Xyz-oriented Deck wouldn't really have much of a problem getting rid of this with the effects of cards such as Blackship or Adreus, or surviving its effects with Maestroke or Tiras. At the same time, it gets crushed by non-Xyz monsters since 1500 isn't a very impressive ATK score.

 

Inflicting a burn based on the monster's entire ATK seems a bit iffy. Xyz monsters tend to have 2000-3000 ATK, which would take out a huge chunk of your opponent's Life. I really feel as if you could do away with this and focus more on it being a way to get rid of Xyz monsters. That said, changing from destroying to banishing would help it to get rid of the pesky stalling monsters such as Gachi and Zenmaines since they protect themselves from normal destruction.

 

It's still no threat to Xyz monsters that get rid of cards from the field, like Volca and Diawolf. I could say that you could make it where that it can't be destroyed by the effects of Xyz Monsters, giving it even more protection, all while pretty much any Rank has a monster that get around it (Rank 3s can just ram Zenmaines, Rank 4s have Blackship and Giant Hand, Rank 6s have Bounzer, Rank 7s have Big Eye, and Rank 8s have Felgrand and Tachyon Dragon. Then, if this effect targets like I think it does, there's Slacker Magician and probably some other cards). All in all, you get a monster that get around Xyz Monsters that aren't specifically designed for odd monster removal, and being able to take down something big is nice. It probably still won't be ran in anything but Zombies, who would wish it was Level 4 for their own Xyz shenanigans.

You may Special Summon this card from your hand when a monster on your side of the field is destroyed by an Xyz monster that your opponent controls. When this monster attacks or is attacked by an Xyz monster, send the monster to the Graveyard. This card can't be targeted by Xyz monster's effects.

 

By making him a level 5, for my is enough.

Either way though, making it that way won't make it last any longer due to it's ATK stat atm.

 

Also @ A Background Character, is that Red Hare from the San Paulguo story of ROTK? Loved that so freaking much.

Making its Level be anything more than 4 would severely hinder this card as well since it probably couldn't be Normal Summoned when you could Normal Summon something. But if you want to make it so, then this card can have more ATK than it does now. 2400 would do for a 1-Tribute monster, and 2700-2900 may work for a 2-Tribute monster.

Yes, yes it is. That comic needs to be updated so badly.

[tazeel3]

So because have 1500 ATK he should be a Lv 4?

ATK some times =/= Level

But in this case, ATK=Level
