Lol, sometimes your write apprecite, I think I like! Get me the phone to Websters!

 

Lol, but seriously, I love your card's originality. You're the most original person here! I wish I was as good at card making as you! Check out my (so far) best liked set, Cyber Army. Also, I know how you feel, no one ever looks at my cards either T_T

It's a good idea, and I really love the graphics, but I see a big problem in "Avenger" (I'm not gonna look at all the cards, but they're pretty awesome).

Let's say you have 2 "Avenger" monsters in the same stack. The first one uses its ability and switches, letting the other one use its ability. With this switching around of Ally Monsters, you can wipe your opponent's field, and then you're cleared for attacking.

 

This isn't just an idea, but an example. All of those cards that use their effects and then send themselves to the bottom vector of a stack, can lead to mass exploitation. If you have a Stack of 3 Ally Monsters, and at least 2/3 can switch to the bottom vector, then you can activate 3 Effects in 1 turn, from 1 Monster Card Zone. This is a great power in the metagame -- and the biggest problem.

 

If you'll notice, most good decks don't use Union, Gemini, Tuner, etc. kinds of monsters anyway -- the most advanced metagame decks are all about effect monsters and supporting "vanillas", and Spell and Trap Cards. With the Ally Monsters coming into the TCG, just about every deck would have to "stack" some (pardon the pun) -- meaning every deck will go from just Effect Monsters to monsters with Allies, Technos, and Zone Monsters (and I'm not very partial to your Techno and Zone Monsters in the first place). This is either (a) an amazing advance in the metagame or (b) a frivolity.... and I can't rightly say, but I think that it's a frivolity. Remember that there are high-level players, and low-level players. This form of strategy isn't easy to master, or even understand. Low-level players will find this hard to use; hard to adapt to (I mean, I used to have problems with Union Monsters... they didn't make sense!).

 

We need the gap between good players and bad players to stay relatively small, but this notion of Ally Monsters and "3D Dueling" makes the gap huge. This is a frivolity from an expert's point of view; an idea that doesn't take into consideration the activity that goes on below.

 

How do you fix it? Put a flexible cap on the number of Ally, Techno, and Zone Monster effects that can be used in a single turn. That's all you need. (yeah... I spend too much time talking about the problem; not enough about the answer)

 

Thank for taking the time to read this! :mrgreen:

I had realized that problem when I redid the tribute tr headshot made, so for purposes of the pack it would be limited. ^_^

 

But combined with my seers they would be quite devious. XD

 

I appreciate that you think they would be used a ton in the meta, that would be so awesome if they were. ^_^

 

Thank you for going so in depth with your response! I appreciate it very much.

 

And to answer a question, the next update hopefully will be tomorrow, depending if I can find a good picture for my new idea of a card.

 

It will take my "meta" to the next level. ^_^

Sorry if i didnt get your permission, PM system is messed up for me. I printed these off and set up (with help) a YCM card duel league in my local area. Just as long as they are not OP'ed you canprint and play with them. I pronted these off and they PWN 10 matches, 9 wins and one loss (i think the deck was a Omega-burn deck)

 

So grats! you got me a free tin and 5 GLAS boosters, yet 2 b opened!

 

Please make more, God Cyber
