Medeus, The Accumulation of Souls

[Ballpitshark]

 

Cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. Must be Special Summoned by placing all Zombie-Type Monsters in your Graveyard on an empty Monster Card Zone; then, place this card on top of the selected Monster Card Zone. The original ATK and DEF of this card is equal to the number of Zombie-Type Monsters used for this card's summon X700. Send 1 card underneath this card to the graveyard to target 1 card on the field: destroy it; Spell and Trap cards cannot be chained to this effect's activation. During the End Phase of a turn in which there are no cards underneath this card: Banish this card. When this card leaves the field: send all cards underneath it to the Graveyard.

 

First card I've made in quite some time. I haven't played the game in so long, but I still like to play with card maker now and again. This is a 'big bad' for Zombie decks. I'm a bit unfamiliar with correct OCG, so if you see any errors feel free to mention them on this thread.

 

If you're possibly wondering what the set is, it's part of my upcoming set of cards, Reign of Mayhem. This is the 'sneak preview' card.

 

Thanks for looking.

This is a new concept. It needs to go to Experimental Cards (unless you make it an Xyz monster and word it like so):

 

? or more (max. 5) Level ? ? monsters (I would suggest "2 or more (max. 5) Level 8 monsters")

Must be Xyz Summoned, and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways. When this card is Xyz Summoned: attach all Zombie-Type monsters from your Graveyard to this card as Xyz materials, then the original ATK and DEF of this card each become equal to the number of Zombie-Type monsters attached to it as Xyz materials. You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then target 1 card on the field; destroy that target. Spell/Trap cards and effects cannot be activated in response to this effect's activation. During the End Phase, if this card has no Xyz materials: banish it.

 

Not sure about the validity of the PSCT of the sentence in bold. I kinda made it up.

 

Onto the actual card - it's inconsistent but OP when it goes off; think BLS or DaD. I don't like cards like this at all, but unfortunately they are common in created cards. Like DaD it can potentially nuke a whole field - but it has even more nuke potential than DaD and is easier to Summon, which is worrying. I would limit the destruction effect to twice per turn and make it attach a maximum number of Zombies from the Grave to it (e.g. 3-4). On the other hand, I like the fact that it is an effect monster with a unique effect... it feels awkwardly worded at the moment though.

 

So yeah ask an admin mod to move it to Experimental Cards (message one of them or change the topic title to "Medeus, The Accumulation of Souls - Please Move to Experimental Cards" or something like that. OR you could take my suggestion and make it an Xyz. But even though it would be less awkward as an Xyz, I kinda like it as an effect monster.
