Airride Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 Monsterize Normal Spell Tribute 1 face-up non-DARK monster you control; Special Summon 1 Fiend-Type monster or 1 DARK monster with the same type as the tributed monster from your hand or Deck whose Level is less than or equal to the Level of the Tributed card + 3. It's a Ninjitsu Art of Transformation-esque card for Fiends and DARK monsters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darj Posted January 9, 2014 Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 OCG fix: "DARK-Attribute" is not an official term. You could describe the effect the following way instead. Tribute 1 face-up non-DARK monster you control; Special Summon 1 Fiend-Type monster or 1 DARK monster with the same type as the tributed monster from your hand or Deck whose Level is less than or equal to the Level of the Tributed card + 3. When this card leaves the field, destroy that monster. The card looks interesting and fun for taking the opponent by suprise if your deck runs DARKs/Fiends and non-DARKs, but it doesn't look like it would be worth running considering that, while it helps with placing a high-level Fiend/DARK monster on the field, it is technically a -1 (yes, the Trap stays, but it no longer does anything and even becomes a weakness for the summoned monster) and unlike Art of Transformation, it is not searchable. Even the original Art of Transformation, with Ninja support, is rarely played except in decks dedicated to bosses such as Dark Simorgh or Apex Avian, and said decks are more of casual decks. I think you could make this card better by either removing the drawback and turning into a Normal Trap, or even a Normal Spell to make it faster, or allowing it to take the opponent's monsters as Spuer-Transformation does. I don't think any of these changes would turn the card overpowered since, after all, the card would only be playable in decks that run both DARKs/Fiends and non-DARKs, and right now I cannot think in any archetype or relevant deck with those monsters and thus you would most likely have to build a deck around this card to take full advantage of it.

Airride Posted January 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2014 Altered it as per your suggestions, to a normal spell. I know it isn't exactly "Useful" but it's more of a flavorful card that could inspire some wacky builds around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
