I Hate Snatch Steal Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 I want to hear about your thoughts on my card's playability and any fixes I could make (This means the card's effects and stats, not the grammar, capitalization, ect.). I don't care about the following: 1. Art Quality 2. Any grammar and capitalization errors (unless they make the card hard to understand.) 3. The blurriness of the pics. Any resizing and/or blurriness was either done to make the text readable, or is a side effect of that or making the cards print without the ATK/DEF chopped off. 4. The amount of text on the cards, it's there for a reason (If you can't read the text I will post it) I don't want to have to post a policy but all my threads have been full of people who only care about art, people who were grammar police, ect. Only one person commented on the card's playability, which is what matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huntar! Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 Do not continuously edit images of Black Luster Soldier. Your cards are very, very blurry. You cannot easily make out the text. You cannot post cards like this and expect people to not comment on them. I can easily tell that there are AT LEAST some capitalization and grammar errors.

OblivionRiku Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 Bronze Swordsman has too many attack points if thats its effect. maybe 1500 or less would be better. Flaxen Warrior is way overpowered. Delete one of its effects, preferably the discard monster one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flaxen Warrior I can understand, I wanted to give him a monster stopping effect, but he does have 3000 ATK without his effect already. Bronze swordsman, on the other hand, requires a level 4 sacrifice, thus he is a -1 (at least) to summon. In if he had 1500 ATK, people would use stuff like mystical space typhoon, fissure ect and forget about him, as he would do about as much as raigeki break. If he was effect-less out side of his summoning conditions then people would just use cyber dragon. Therefore, he has to be strong enough to make the investment worth it and that means tyeing (sp?) with cyber dragon. edit: I took your advice on flaxen warrior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So trying to make playable rituals is bad? Lets see you win a match against a tournament level deck with a ritual deck. (Demise OTK doesn't count, as it's not ritual theme, demise is just part of the OTK) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Красивая Ведьма Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 Use better pictures! They are the one of the most important components of a card it brings everything together. With bad images people won't take them seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also rate you heavily on your cards being very realistic. They are not realistic if they do not have the correct card grammar. Learn the ways of this site or you will find yourself in trouble. If you want comments, fix the problems. I was just pointing out some of the obvious flaws on your cards. I did not even have to read the effect to find those out. Calm down. Thanks anyway for the negative reputation. I will lovely have it deleted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabHelmet Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 Fusion Monsters such as VWXYZ-Dragon Catapult Cannon that are designed to be Special Summoned by specific methods other than Fusion Summon were created because, as Fusion Monsters, they would go in the Fusion Deck instead of the Main Deck. However, Ritual Monsters and Effect Monsters both go in the main deck, which is why creating ritual-free Ritual Monsters makes no sense. All you have here are some Semi-Nomi monsters that have been randomly given a blue background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shin Akuma Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 The point of rituals monsters being as such is because of the ritual spell card. The fusions are not included into a deck as two or more monsters require polymerization. Now, i can see why its like so with your cards and you are wondering about the likes of Suijin, Kazejin and Sanga, making Gate Guardian, but GG is not a fusion. i can see why you think so but really think Gate Guardian is like a puzzle put together. The fusions are more of a mixing thing, hence the polymerization. Back to your ritual cards, i think IMO is unnecessary to make them a ritual, but no ritual spell card. First off, the text that says that the card does or doesnt need a ritual card is not necessary because there is no ritual spell. Furthermore, even if you did have the ritual spell card, then it would make the whole purpose of this card useless. So, in all, you should either:1. Change it from a ritual to an effect monster, saving some ink and some poor critisisms.2. Make one or more ritual spell cards to compliment the cards you got.3. Turn it into a fusion instead. My rating: without Artistic Critisism: 7/10with Artistic Critisism: 5.5/10 the reuse of BLS three times, you gotta admit, is really kinda annoying. other than that, your cards have potential, but they are expressed in a wrong way, IN MY OPINION.

(Don't know about the caps at the end, but it's totally negligible.) I like your analogies about gate guardian literally being a puzzle. When I made these cards, I wanted to take the ritual mechanic a step further by eliminating the ritual spell cards, which can lead to bad draws. About them being rituals over (semi)nomis, As I said to crab helmet:I've been asked that before, senju and manju of the respective amounts of hands as well as advanced ritual art want a word with you.

Also, 1 less card is necessary to summon the monster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyhe Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 the only good thing I see is the concept of ritual monsters not needing the ritual spell to be summoned,the rest simply & frankly sucks (sorry for my bluntiness) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peacekid Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 A ritual monster without usage of a ritual summon = an effect monster. If you lack a Ritual card for a Ritual Monster in your hand, somethings wrong. Simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No offense, but you need to learn more about how ritual decks play if you think that using the specific spell cards is a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
