Deep Darkness Dragon

[flavio137]

Hello there! My second card in the forum! OCG fixes and suggestions are welcome... 

 

 

2 level 5 monsters

Detach 1 xyz material of this card, Special Summon to your side of the field the monster detached. If this card has no xyz materials, you can target 1 face-up Xyz monster on the field, attach the monsters attached to it has an xyz material to this card (this is a quick effect). You can only activate 1 of these effects per turn and only once that turn.

2 Level 5 monsters
You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; Special Summon it. If this card has no Xyz Materials: You can target 1 face-up Xyz Monster on the field; detach all Xyz Materials attached to that monster, and if you do, attach them to this card as Xyz Materials instead. You can only activate 1 "Deep Darkness Dragon" effect per turn, and only once that turn.

 

-------------

Here's the thing about this card; if you opt to use Spell/Trap Monsters as Xyz Materials, they cannot be Special Summoned because at this point, they aren't monsters.

Although yeah, you can summon back its monster Xyz Materials to use for other things.

 

As for the no Xyz Material thing, it's essentially the anime Barian's Force effect (sans the burn damage and all).

 

To be fair, that effect was a pain in the ass to deal with in the anime; not sure how I feel about it being replicated in this card.

What happens if your opponent pops this, and you revive it with zero mats?

 

Certainly, you can trigger the "no Xyz" material effect + proceed to steal the opponent's one; or just borrow from another Xyz Monster on your field that doesn't need them.

On average, you'll probably get maybe 1-2 materials at best; maybe 3 if you're lucky.

 

I would say change it to "If this Xyz Summoned card has no Xyz Materials...", but that wouldn't technically kill it.

Otherwise, I could suggest lowering it to stealing 1 material from the Xyz Monster of your choosing.

 

Stat-wise, it rivals that of Adreus/Tiras which is good for generic Rank 5s.

Thanks for the suggestion! 

 

When I thought this card I wanted a card to help with special summn effects like constellar monsters or other archetypes, to be honest I do not really play a lot with rank 5 xyz, so I thought until at lower your rank 4 in order to add it to the decks as tellarknight or battlingboxer.

 

About the effect of "stealing" xyz materials I thought it might help if the opponent comes with some xyz that needs all your materials to activate its effect. Like most uses only one place I decided to remove all of them and end the use of xyz in the field. But I think reducing the amount of xyz stolen for one would be tolerable.

 

But I'm thinking of a way to improve the effect of this "theft" of this card, this is it: "If this card has no xyz materials: Target 1 face-up xyz monster on the field, detach all xyz materials attached to that monster, and if you do, attach 1 of them to this card as xyz material instead." The rest is equal ...

 

So what do you think?
