(Bionicle) Airwatcher

Kinda testing out if I can really feel like making more cards, so here is another one I technically already made. Revamped it since it didn't make sense to need to attack for it's effect, and tried to give it a tiny bit of a boost besides that. Not really much of one, but still.

 

 

Once per turn: You can select 1 face-up monster on the field; the selected monster cannot declare an attack as long as this card remains face-up. Monsters selected by this effect cannot be returned to the hand or Deck.

HEY YO BIONICLE HELLO FRIEND HOW ARE YOU THIS FINE EVENING 

 

So yeah, I really liked Bionicle. The Mask of Light just had it's tenth anniversary today actually.

 

As for the card, 2300 for a Level Six is solid-ish, though Tribute Summoning is kind of slow these days. The effect is good once you get it out, I suppose; Summon this guy, then stun one of your opponent's monsters and keep it from being bounced. They'd probably just use it as a Xyz Material though, but if they can't get their  monster out of the way, this card is going to spell trouble. And it's a Warrior-type, too, so I could easily see Frognarchs running this.

Seems a touch broken to me. No limits to how many monsters it can lock down, so you can potentially lock down your opponent's entire field. I'd say limit it, doesn't have to be just 1, but everything seems a bit too much. Even if it would take 5 turns.

 

As far as everything else goes, I run a Warrior deck myself, so I'm always glad to see Warriors being made. That said, shouldn't a Bionicle be a Machine? I'm just saying :p

Even if it would take 5 turns.

That's why it seems kinda Regigigas slow to me tbh. The game seems too fast for this card nowadays. All the old starter decks that are still available on the games, less than meta decks, etc, might run into trouble here and there, but HijackAttack said, and I already did, so dunno why I'm going in circles, it just seems a bit too slow these days. But now I am thinking about some kind of limit besides once per turn, since when I made these things all that time ago, I tried to make the effects realistic to the character with what info I could get, and it doesn't seem all that realistic that he can to that to everything on the field (even himself, if he wanted to :P) 

 

Before, I had him attack to use his effect, but I figured, considering the kind of effect it is, that didn't make sense and would be WAY too slow, so with this and possibly a limit, perhaps it'll be just right?

That said, shouldn't a Bionicle be a Machine? I'm just saying :P

I'd make some of them Machine, at least. Since I know that much. But idk.
