I found a dA I didn't even know I had. Lol.

 

 

Pay 1000 Life Points. Each time a monster(s) is Special Summoned, switch it to Defense Position. Monster affected by this effect cannot change their Positions until the End Phase. 

 

CnC would be lovely.

I mean, it's a card. Stumbling kinda already does this without the life point cost and works on all summons. This, however, stops the monsters from changing battle position, which is nice, but not  a lot of things change battle position anyways so *shrug*

Weeell.... When a monster is Summoned, it cannot manually change positions that turn anyways, and this card saying that won't really prevent other card effects changing them back to Attack Position because other cards written more or less like that have worked that way in the past.... That's why you cannot manually change Goblin Attack Force immediately after it attacks even if it was already on the field on previous turn, but an effect sitting it up will affect it still.

 

That makes the "cannot change positions" clause kind of redundant, unless you meant "other card effects cannot change their positions this turn", that is.

The card looks old xD
Yugico or old Card Maker perhaps?

 

It is a different version of Stumbling, which is actually a little bit more manageable because of the chainability of Trap Cards. The LP cost was probably more deserving back when the card was originally created. I wonder how much it'd really change the card having it vs. not having it.

Well, at the very least Clown Control have an extra copy of Stumbling now to set up their board :v

 

But yeah, looks really outdated and it has been "out-power-creeped"; Stumbling alone practically outclasses it. Its only advantage is that you can activate it on the opponent's turn as a surprise, but you still have to activate it before the opponent Special Summons anything, and that's equivalent to activating Stumbling during your Main Phase 2.

 

Now... it if were to negate the monster's effect, then it would be a quite strong card there... but "Lose 1 Turn" already exists for that and it's not a good idea to border with outclassing it, so that's not an option IMO.

Instead, you can improve by removing the LP cost, and as Sleepy suggested, prevent their positions from being changed by effects.

Oh god no. Lol this is a template I made a couple years ago. I made this card way back. I just found it on a dA I didn't know I had lol.
