Spotlight on Me! - A Shot at Abyss Actors {WRITTEN}


~Faytl~

Recommended Posts

It's probably the fact that I'm studying theatre in college right now and have been doing it for years, as well as having a weakness for enormous hams, but I really really like the AByss Actors Sawatari uses in the Arc-V anime. Unfortunately the writers don't seem to share that, with Sawatari's duels and new cards spread WAY too thin for us to get much of an idea of what the deck does. So with the current ones in mind, I'm trying to make a few additions to their cast. No idea how many I will make, but I'll probaby make more in this thread as inspiration strikes me. Feedback and constructive criticism are all greaty appreciated. Also, here is a link to the Abyss Actor page on the wiki, in case anybody wants to look at the existing cards for reference- http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Abyss_Actor

Good lord, I love these. Side-note: Huzzah to my fellow thespian!

 

I like the synergy these have together and the fact that they really feel like a part of the archetype you've based them in. Good job on that. Just out of curiosity, is there any way for any of these monsters to be added face-down to the extra deck? Because if not, then the phrasing may not need to include the "face-up" at the end of every effect.

 

I'd like to see more Props. And I feel like that part of the archetype would do better as Equip cards. Possibly make the continuous spells and traps into "Abyss Setpiece" cards? I dunno, just thoughts. I like to ramble, and hope for the best.

 

:D Thumbs up and keep at it!

Thanks, the Props being continuous spells are due to the only one we've seen in the anime being a continuous spell, so I'm sticking with that for consistency. Ditto the face-up wording, as that's the anime wording. Dunno how I'll tackle setpiece cards just yet.

 

Added a new monster, a new Script, and a new Stage Prop :)
