Normal Spell Card

During this turn's End Phase: All Beast-type monsters you control gain 1000 ATK and DEF, also they become Warrior-Type. All monsters affected by this card effect gain the following effect: Once per turn, if this card would be destroyed by battle or card effect, you can send 1 Beast-type or Warrior-type monster from your Deck or hand to the Graveyard, then it is not destroyed.

 

 

 

Old effect:

Target 1 Beast-type monster; after 3 turns, it gains 500 DEF and becomes Warrior-Type.

This card is pretty darn useless. All it does it let you gain a little defense after three turns, which is a huge grace period, and changes something's type. The type change would be alright if it were an instant use, or if you could combo with it, but the three turns is so much time.

I'd have to agree with the above on this one.

 

As it stands, no Deck even wants this at present, given the low DEF boost and the unnecessarily long wait just to change its Type. Yeah, I suppose it's a reference to how things "evolve" over time in reality, but changing it to an instant Type change and stat boost would make this card better (not like Beasts actually care about the DEF boost otherwise, except in very specific situations). Most I can see this card for is giving Beasts access to whatever Warrior-Type ED/support they want, assuming they have space to even do it without screwing up consistency otherwise.

Hi. I changed the effect.

Thanks.

They don't gain the 1000 ATK because they changed there type to a Warrior and they need a restriction with a 1000 ATK boost, try, 

 

During this turn's End Phase: All Beast-Type/Beast-Warrior-Type monsters you control gain 1000 ATK and DEF, also they become Beast-Warrior-Type; all monsters affected by this effect cannot attack a opponent directly and gain the following effect: Once per turn, if this card would be destroyed by battle or card effect, you can send 1 Beast-type or Warrior-type monster from your Deck or hand to the Graveyard, then it is not destroyed.

(They actually still gain the effects; when this card's effects start to resolve, they are still Beast-Type monsters and qualify for the boost [unless the opponent flips up DNA Surgery or something earlier on])

 

Why did you change the Type requirements in your fix? Beast-Warrior doesn't do anything except grant access to the Fire Formation Trap Cards and an assortment of other things.

 

I can understand that the sudden power boost is somewhat offsetting, given they also get access to stuff like 86, Excalibur and so forth, but as I mentioned earlier, do they want to run those types of support cards without messing up consistency in their own Decks? That, and they do have to contend with common forms of removal otherwise. The direct attack lock is fine otherwise. Although if you choose to not put a lock on direct attacking, lower the boost to 500.

 

At the very least, this is actually usable now (and grants them a destruction evasion effect if needed, even though you'll likely be milling Beast-Type monsters most of the time anyway).

 

[spoiler=OCG fix (otherwise, it is still understandable)]

During the End Phase of the turn this card was activated: Beast-Type monsters you control gain 500 ATK and DEF, also they become Warrior-Type. Monsters affected by this effect gain this effect: Once per turn, if this card would be destroyed by battle or card effect: You can send 1 Beast-Type or Warrior-Type monster from your hand or Deck to the Graveyard instead.
