Aztecan Ruins

[razzy]

A card that's meant to be an all out stop to Special Summoned monsters. It is a wall of text and I hope it isn't too hard to understand. 

 

All monsters Special Summoned from the Extra Deck lose ATK/DEF equal to their original Level/Rank x200. Depending on the monster Special Summoned from the Extra Deck also apply the following effects.

* Fusion: Until the end of the turn that monster was summoned, its effects are negated and its effects cannot be activated.

* Synchro: That monster cannot be used as Synchro Material. Also during the turn after a player Synchro Summons they cannot Special Summon Tuner monster for the rest of the turn. 

* Xyz: Any Xyz material detached from that monster is banished instead of going to the Graveyard. During the End Phase if a Xyz monster has no Xyz material, banish it.

* Pendulum: A player cannot Pendulum Summon monsters that have the same name. Also a player cannot Pendulum Summon a monster that has the same name as one they control.

So basically this card has a worse version of Burden of the Mighty going for it (in terms of increased power and hitting defenses) and a lot of other things.

 

Fusions get turned into vanillas for the turn they're summoned.

 

It'll kill Shaddolls and other Fusion-heavy Decks like Fluffals, HEROs and other things.

 

Synchros lock out other Tuners that turn, in addition to making that monster be unable to make another one (locking out Accels).

 

Except for Accel Synchros or some other things (see Yusei.dek and TGs), not many Synchros make themselves as materials for higher ones.

 

Xyz applies a Sphere Field-esque effect to blow up things, and essentially kills off the materials that get detached so they can't be reused. 

 

Would screw with BAs after detaching, and put a time limiter on how long Xyz can remain on the field.

 

Pendulums can't summon duplicates of each other.

 

Shuts off Qlips, that's for sure; probably Performapals and Igknights (or something)

 

-----

From the looks of things, this card can be teched in Decks that don't really utilize one; like Monarchs, Yosenju and some other things.

 

That being said, it'll hurt high Level/Rank monsters HARD. I'd advise removing the stat drop though; rest of the effects are enough, even if they punish a player heavily for even using an Extra Deck.

In a lot of cases, the stat drop would result in 1-2K points on average; effectively turning bosses into destruction fodder for small things. You could just reduce it to 100 instead; still would hurt, but not as much.

 

(Probably recommend you strip the stat drop)

 

Out of these, I'd say the Synchro one is the least punishing; since you can still make another Synchro with whatever materials you have left (save for the other monster, assuming you have another Tuner at hand).

Thanks for the feedback. I was honestly trying to make something that would be nearly broken. I agree maybe the stat drop is probably a bit too much. 

As for the other effects I just tried to hit/restrict what that type does the most of. I may mess around with it and add/change some of the things. Such as the Xyz "time limit".

I'm all for tripping up plays as an alternative to outright blocking them out, but the Pendulum restriction doesn't sit well with me. I would rather still allow the player to freely Pendulum Summon monsters, but would instead put Pendulum Monsters that have been Pendulum Summoned from the Extra Deck back into the Main Deck (if possible).
