Spinny Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 If your opponent controls more cards than the total number of cards in your hand and your side of the field: Draw cards equal to your current card deficit. You can only activate 1 "Judgment Scales" per turn. This seems like one of those cards that currently doesn't do anything but will bite konami on the ass really hard later with more power creep.Thoughts?

Miror B Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Well, it basically says if your opponent has a huge board position while you have nothing. Doesn't take the opponent's hand into account but takes yours into account, making it harder to pull off unless you're facing someone who slaps their entire hand onto the board (spells, traps and all) and works from there. So I think if it ever bites Konami in the ass, the game will have pretty much been abandoned by that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thing also accounts backrow and pendulum scales so it isn't hard at all to pull off really. Burning materials really isn't hard in this game, and a card that rewards you for it can only be bad news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm more saying it doesn't really do much to reward bad playing since it requires your opponent to over compensate to their board. Like literally, if this becomes a threat, the basic counter will be to not overextend unless you're confident in winning. (plus if you're getting 7+ cards onto the field at once Heavy Slump becomes playable so pls Konami do this :D) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trebuchet MS Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 Chain Burn loves this cards to bits considering they have no lasting board presence whatsoever and like to have the opponent's field being cloggy. Which means they can draw about 3-4 cards off this and get a whole load of gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBeartic Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 Quick question. Isn't this basically excition but instead of destruction you gain draw power? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 Quick question. Isn't this basically excition but instead of destruction you gain draw power?And a trap... and doesn't count the opp's hand... So it's slower, weaker, and less on demand. So not really, no.

Alastar Rainford Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 So if I were to chain Greed off of this would it still work, if so were in the chain should this be? Before or after Greed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After, you want for this to resolve first after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-kyo- Posted June 26, 2015 Report Share Posted June 26, 2015 the only problem i have with this card is that i dont know what the word deficit means Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before or after Greed?You would always want this as far back on the chain as possible. If you doCL1: ScalesCL2: Greed You'd draw 2 off of greed, then Scales would draw equal to the deficit. So you'd want to Scales as CL2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
