Fastshadow

[Atypical-Abbie]

A simple Normal Pendulum Monster support card. Not entirely sure if you are suppose to put the activated in the monster effect or not, but regardless, you get the point.

 

When this card is activated: You can excavate the top 3 cards of your Deck, then add 1 excavated Normal Pendulum Monster to your hand, also shuffle the rest into the Deck. You can only activate 1 “Fastshadow” per turn.

It's a Spell Card when activated, so the activation stuff goes where you have it now.

 

As a whole, it's essentially a Pot of Duality of sorts, except without an SS restriction/lock.

While I'd like to think Igknights have some use for this card, they likely have all the search tools they need at this point (unless they get a Level 2 or something, which I doubt).

 

They'll probably find some use for it, but don't quote me on that.

 

Scale-wise, you should be okay with it.

While yes, it's a Scale 1 w/out restrictions, Dragonvein is already that and certainly no one's complaining much about it.

This could probably end up searching Qliphort Scout, so I guess it could see use in Qliphort decks...

I mean the "you can only activate 1" part, not sure if that's what you also meant, but it doesn't sound like it.

 

I was planning on making a clause kind of like that, sort of a "You cannot Special Summon, except by Pendulum Summon during the turn you activate this effect", but I don't think that's really that needed.

[Flash Flyer - Sakura]

Yeah, I think I was referring to the activation thing.

For the last part (which you meant), the wording should be fine as you have it now; otherwise, you can always check if Konami has released any Pendulums that restrict stuff.

 

Otherwise, you can probably treat it like a regular Spell Card (wording is correct there).

I never really know what to say about your cards, Zaz, because they're always polished and pretty much "finished", even the simple ones. I love the name for... reasons?... and it's an overall solid card. I think the OCG goes like this:

 

When this card is activated: Excavate the top 3 cards of your Deck, you can add 1 excavated Normal Pendulum monster to your hand, also, after that, shuffle the rest back into your Deck.

 

Compiled from the OCG of Pot of Duality and Sylvans respectively. I'm pretty sure it can't be a cost to excavate (hence you need to get rid of the semicolon), since without the cost the effect couldn't happen anyway. If you get what I mean. Hopefully.

Yea .. umm no, why would you replace mono with a small chance to get 1 of 2 scouts, if you have not draw it/searchers yet, this actually sounds like a desperate move.

The card itself is amazing and has something a few of your cards miss (brightrising dragon as an example) actual power.

This card obviously belongs in normal pendulum decks, except igknights (for obvious reasons) and allows the gathering of necessary resources.

Being limited to search from 3 cards limits the power in a way that it only supports (almost) pure normal monster (pendulum) decks rather than all that get 1 or more normal pendulum monsters.

All in all an interesting card that supports a currently underwhelming deck (without having restrictions like qli scales (as being limited to one deck totally balances them) to make it usable on a far greater scale).

Splendid work.

I don't think there are any problems with the original PSCT. Excavating is not conventionally done as a cost, but it is mechanically sound (if the effect gets negated, the excavated cards are sent to the Graveyard). On the other hand, making the excavation mandatory, and the adding optional, doesn't really do anything except change how the effect works, just for the sake of it.

 

"After that" isn't required for the effect to work, I don't believe, and appending "back" to "shuffle the rest" is just filler.

[Atypical-Abbie]

Thinking about it, a cost that excavates doesn't make much sense. Would the cards would keep on being revealed the whole time or only at activation? No card really does this, so it's probably save to assume that Konami has thought of that already, and that it should only be done at resolution. I'll change it later.
