Dragonmaid Support


Rayfield Lumina

Recommended Posts

Konnichiwa, fellow card makers! I've been here for some months, but I really haven't posted my own creations in Casual/Advanced, so I've decided it was about time to do it *nervous*. Anyway, these cards are an expansion of the already powerful "Dragonmaid" archetype, (like they needed it) and, as you will see, will use some of the characters in the anime the archetype in itself is based on. Feel free to comment and critique anything you want, my goal is to make them as good as possible, to the point they could be used in advanced! PSCT and OCG corrections are quite appreciated!

Also, make sure you hear this song while checking the cards!

I don't own any of the images used, both the characters and some of the backgrounds, credits to their respective owners.

Le'ts go, Kobayashi-san!

Have been reading up on Dragonmaid cards.

Tohru
From what I gather, Tohru is meant to search for the maid you want which gets bounced by their fusion Spell, so you can save up your Normal Summon for after Tohru drops onto the field. The other effect seems to be to extend with Sendoff or Hospitality. Dragonmaid Welcome already retrieves them and doesn't get rid of them forever so that bit just sounds like something meant to be used when the other option is disrupted by the opponent, and I can see it with how prominent those things are. Also, the wording on Tohru implies she can't bypass the hard once per turn clause in the Spells, as she activates them directly rather than activating their effect.
The effect damage negation is a bit out of place compared to the rest. The archetype doesn't seem to run anything having to do with it and it doesn't really compliment any of the other effects on the card. Even in the flavor I can sort of see Tohru wanting to protect Ms Kobayashi but wouldn't say that was the focus on their relationship....

Urhot
What does the Fusion Summon bit work like? This card doesn't have an inherent Summon condition (a clause that explains how to fuse it without needing an effect). Like, Super Polymerization cannot be responded to, but you can still do stuff like Bottomless Trap Hole their monster once the Fusion gets to the field, so the effect Summoning and the Summon itself are different things to point at, and I don't think this would give "Dragonmaid Changeover" immunity.
Makes me think on how the Egyptian Gods have both, a clause that you can't negate their Summon, and a clause nothing can respond to their Summon, and I think your Urhot card can only really get the latter.

You don't need to put "all monsters your opponent controls in their Main Monster Zones". It's a bit redundant. 
If you say "all monsters in your opponent's Main Monster Zones" it already implies they control them and that it excludes the Extra Monster Zone.
Btw, you forgot to write the ATK/DEF. I can see it in the card just fine but still thought I'd point that out.
The last effect I recommend you change the "When" for the word "If". It doesn't sound too different but "When" has chances of the timing it can activate on against certain plays.

Attack protection is fine, Raigeki effect is cute but considering you are using up 3 materials + your Fusion spell on it, I'd say it is more than fair. I like the Summon negation too, which is one-time unlike some of the Synchro bosses that can just negate those things and repeat every turn. I wouldn't say to change that, I quite like it. Tohru isn't a bad thing to float into although it's very much up to the opponent to bait this out so as a casual player I very much appreciate the drawbacks built in.

Kanna

IDK about the idea of making her a Tuner. Your Synchro is Elma and I don't recall them being very supportive of each other in the anime. If anything they got friendly as the whole group eventually did but it wasn't particularly close for these. They started off on different factions and are more so on Truce over anything else. If Tohru had been the Synchro, I would have seen it more, or even better, have Kanna be the Synchro and have the human girl she hangs out with be the Tuner.... that'd work better flavor-wise in my opinion.

Other than that I find the card itself fine, disregarding the flavor part I mentioned xP

Ankan

Pretty standard stuff. I learned that all dragon forms of the maids have that effect protection clause and their own bounce-to-revert-to-maid part. That is nice considering their defining effects are all as hand traps, and this is basically a Kuriboh other than that. Even if it can't force Links to Defense, at least it gets the attack negation going, so it does what it is setup to do.

Elma

Only one thing I wanna point out (everything else seems fine to me): That backrow bounce effect is something better suited on low Level Main Deck monsters. Usually the Spells/Traps you'd wanna use something like that on are the ones that floodgate you out of playing, and those wouldn't let you do the Synchro Summon to begin with. It is the kind of effect that works best when you can access it under lockdowns so you can start playing, otherwise it is just an ok bonus that does no harm but could be in a better place. Take for instance the "Lunalilght White Rabbit" that fills in this same kind of niche for its own archetype.

Mael

Huhh... I have no idea how you'd go about keeping tabs on it. Sounds like a mess in a deck that already is about bouncing back and forth through your monsters. Keeping tabs in a controlled manner would alert the opponent of this, and not doing so would be a nightmare to recount for.
Otherwise I can get behind everything else xP

Charge Time

Nice way to bypass Kaijus, Ra Sphere, and Nibiru. Tough flavor doesn't quite add up, you see: Charge Time implies your cards are resting in some way, but the way the card effect will play out is that your monsters will get an ATK boost and get more aggressive with a double attack feature for the small ones.... while they are charging up. It'd make more sense if the card had a way to get off the field or get inactive in some manner, signifying charging is done, and THEN you'd gain the extra bonuses. Though this is mostly a nitpick, gameplay-wise the card works.

Kotatsu

It now occurs to me that the Continuous Spells having ways to get into the GY by the archetype would be a neat way to make Charge Time work under flavor... anyways... the "Twice per Duel" is a bit arbitrary and honestly it is overdoing it. How are you gonna be retrieving the card having been banished face-down on a consistent way, and how often are you gonna see all 3 copies to use it on in a single duel? Even if it does, what difference makes 2 uses vs the 3 copies you can have of it? I think "only once per turn" works well enough. You are getting rid of your GY setup for this so it is fine. Pot of Avarice isn't game-breaking nowadays so I think it should be fine without any X times per Duel clauses.

Electro Spark

At least the second burn effect I see among these, and I'm starting to think Tohru's anti-burn effect is only trying to nullify this in a mirror match. Btw, some of the stuff is flavor-wise so specific to Kanna that it almost seems odd implementing it to any other dragon.... Like, Maids don't normally charge up, but Kanna does because she's an electric dragon.... Wanna see how the Kitchen Dragonmaid needs any charging up if it appeared in the anime xD
anyways... on to the card....
1 Kind of a bonus I see.
2 This is fine. It pretty much guarantees you'll use the Spell for THIS at the very least, but retrieving it every turn with the Dragonmaid support is kind of scary.
3 This is perfect for the niche I was talking about of getting out of a floodgate situation... but considering the opponent gets to play around it, I wonder how it'd work out in practice.
4 no response clause I see.... umm this is pretty much like the Sky Striker S/T already, if not a little stronger than those... does it need this?
5 Ufff.... this is a snowball effect. Get the board and you'll be doing this for the rest of the duel. No Battle Phase forever. And considering the other effects above.

Two things to point out: Even if some of it is random 500 burn or a "no reply" clause, it is a lot of random effects in a single card. This one is a bit of a problem card IMO. You bounce something, banish something, cannot be responded, burn a little bit, and prevent their battle phase, potentially every turn for long enough to go beyond a comeback. I know this archetype can swarm so this is iffy.

Kobayashi's House

The self-retrieve is a bit overkill. You already have ways to retrieve it, and it is more strategic to have your S/T be weighted against each other depending on the scenario to see what they wanna retrieve with Tohru or Dragonmaid Welcome (and the Fusion Spell already brings back itself). 
This card already does enough by replenishing field presence (even at effects negated) and making up for the LP cost by giving you LP back... which I see the flavor of it but gameplay-wise it sounds like a bit of clutter where you could get rid of both the LP cost and the LP gain and more or less get the main game-benefits of it. Well I guess it doesn't particularly hurt.

Ambush

Sounds like a sweet opener card. You face something like a Darklaw or a Crystal Wing, so you just Summon a monster from your Deck and negate the issue.
Problem is that it being a Trap demands a tame turn of setup that you might not have. It doesn't even permanently negate so the threat is back when you get to play again. Sounds like a card that should either get an "activate from hand if... " clause, or be a Quick-Play or even just a Normal Spell for the sake of immediate usage.

The Emergency Teleport effect I'm not too worried about because the clause "if you control no monsters" is a surprisingly harsh drawback once you use these kinds of cards. So that's fine.

I honestly love these cards but honestly have no way to test them out which is a bit of a bummer. Although, I'm working on that, it will take a while.

 

Also, I saw the cards but haven't been able to give them enough attention to give an opinion on them individually due to work. Monday's are always extremely busy for me.

Thank you very much for taking your time and giving me your critique, which I'll read very carefully in order to improve my cards. To be honest, I was worried these were too horrible since no one had replied before, to the point I got depressed even though not getting replies happens often to many people. I'm someone who sadly jumps quickly to conclusions and thinks the worst, sorry about that.

About the critique in itself, well, I won't defend myself, lol, I have a looong way to go in order to make advanced-level cards, that's why I posted in Casual. I agree with basically most stuff. I gave Tohru the effect damage negation effect to reflect her power to revert the destruction caused. About the relation among the characters that might be reflected in the flavor, I honestly didn't think too much about it. I figured Tohru had to be the boss monster since she's called the "Strongest Dragonmaid" even in the series, and I felt it needed to be an alternative to House Dragonmaid. The relation (non-relation) between Kanna and Elma didn't went through my head at all XD I only thought I needed a Tuner and that Elma, as being a Dragon of Order, needed to be a Synchro. In truth, Kanna should be in the next alternate artwork of BEWD 🙂 . The burn damage in Electro Spark is a bit of a random stuff like you Sleepy said, only in order to make you have 2+ Dragonmaid to activate the good effects of the Spell. It was hilarious when I imagined the other Dragonmaids trying to refill their power in the plug. I just thought of lil' Kanna there. All in all, I kinda was more focused in the effects rather than the flavor and all that, but I'll keep everything in mind, so thanks again.

I'm a bit late to this... but, well, let's go through this in pairs:

Tohru and her dragon form seem a little over the top for the archetype, especially since Tohru is no harder to summon than House, but at the same time their effects don't really mesh with the archetype at all, Tohru doesn't help much with the deck's swarming due to negating effects, meaning you need to use backrow to bounce the summoned maid before you can do literally anything with them and her dragon form's field nuke just doesn't feel like a Dragonmaid effect, especially when House can do the same thing in most cases, even doing so at the start of your opponent's battle phase! Not to mention that having an extra deck monster check types and attributes doesn't really fit the deck's playstyle, since the only attribute checking comes from Hospitality and the only level checking comes on the main deck monsters for their swaps back and forth so it just seems a bit weird, if it checked one or the other it would fit a little more.

Kanna's self summoning effect and atk boost come out of nowhere, especially considering the inclusion of being boosted by thunder type monsters, While I am a proponent of easy to summon tuners and a bit of a synchro fanboy it seems... odd to put a tuner into a primarilly main deck focused archetype with a couple fusion monsters, like if Qliphorts had an XYZ monster, its just weird.

On the other hand, Ankan seems entirely fine and pretty reasonable for the deck, though its rare to still have a dragon form in your hand during your opponent's battle phase. just want to note that if I were going to add more main deck dragonmaids I would probly have made them a level 4 and a level 9 to pair with Chamber, maybe toss in a homemade dragon form for Chamber too but that's just me.

Elma... Are you sure this isn't a misprinted Aromaseraphy monster? It really does seem mostly like a big version of Aromage Cananga. Please don't try to mix the lore and playstyles of different archetypes, we don't need another World Legacy. Mini-rant aside her effects are fine, just a little odd for dragonmaids, counting as two materials for a fusion is interesting and slightly confusing to me but there are things that can do it for XYZ so I'll accept it.

As for her dragon form... That is the wordiest graveyard banish I have ever seen, but, just like Kanna's dragon form it is pretty fitting to the archetype, even if it is a little Aromage Majoram for my tastes. The second effect seems more like Metalfoes or Thunder Dragons than Dragonmaids, and the floating would be fine without the effect negation, especially since it prevents you from floating into her human form and then using her as 2 fusion materials.

If nothing else, I do appreciate having a level 9 and a level 10 to summon using the level 2 tuner, though you have also given dragonmaids in archetype access to the signer dragons and a lot of other okay-amazing cards so be weary of that.

Charge time is completely out of place in the deck, dragonmaids don't use counters, you don't typically want to attack using a level 4 or lower dragonmaid and the only thing the level 7 or higher effect is blocking, as far as being used as materials and to my knowledge, unchained, which I respect having a counter for but I'm not sure dragonmaids need it.

Kotatsu Should have a : after the word 'turn' in its first effect. Twice per duel effects are funky and I like them, but face down banishing seems to be an odd obbsession of yours with these cards and I really can't think of an archetype that plays with that mechanic (might make one later). The shuffling into the deck is fine for recovery, losing a card forever is an okay cost for a pot of greed effect, negation is nice, though a discard cost is a bit odd in dragonmaids, one would expect sending cards from the deck to the graveyard or returning something to the hand in dragonmaids.

Electro Spark is actually a fairly powerful card, though it really should return a dragonmaid to the hand as cost, as it stands now it has no cost and it might be a bit too easy to get off the full effect, given how quickly dragonmaids can set up a board of 6 face up monsters. As for fitting with the archetype, the burn and banish are out of place, columns are for links and mekk knights and preventing chaining is a very rare effect, as well, making your opponent skip their battle phase is more a punishment than a bonus for Dragonmaids, since you're doing less swapping in and out and therefore getting fewer searches/dumps/revives/destroys.

Kobayashi's House, while I prefer keeping their master anonymous since dragonmaids don't really need lore I do like field spells and cards that are searchable due to counting as being in an archetype. As for the field spell itself: it feels like a world legacy field spell, with the 300 boost, nice secondary effect and then an extra really out of place effect. Paying 1000 life points to summon a dragonmaid you just bounced would only be useful in VERY specific circumstances and its usefullness is all but negated by the fact that it negates the effects, yes you could get an extra beater on the field but that beater will just sit there being stupid and adding nothing to your game plan. The effect where it can reset itself after being destroyed is also interesting, but, tributing a monster isn't really welcome in dragonmaids.

AmbushWeb.thumb.jpg.484625bbdfa0ebed1b71ceaba2f31f5e.jpg

Finally, Ambush. Dragonmaids are not Mekk Knights, they are not Blackwings and they are not @Ignisters, While this is a decent piece of support and a potential way to recover from a field nuke it feels like some unholy combination of any 2 of the above mentioned archetypes that someone slapped the word 'dragonmaid' on by accident.

Overall: A lot of the cards are pretty solid but they don't really play with the same set of mechanics as dragonmaids and can, in some cases, go entirely against the deck.

I also went out of my way not to mention the fact that none of these dragonmaids follow the deck's naming scheme in my analysis of them because that's  too semantic even for me.

Wow, thanks a lot  @Woloa, I absolutely didn't expect this analysis, considering how long has it been since I posted my one and only archetype so far >_<. I'd probably be better if I didn't mention at the beginning that I wanted this to be Advanced, I need to learn quite a bit in order to achieve that level. But I see what you mean with avoiding the inclusion of mechanics that aren't in consonance with the main gimmicks of the archetype, I concede that went a bit overboard with many of the cards, trying to find even a new way to play 'em with a Synchro despite obviously being out of place. You're quite the connoisseur of Dragonmaids, I didn't even realize a couple of the effect even affect the system of the Deck instead of helping them. As for some of the completely weird effects, i just thought of playing around and adding some flavorful stuff, that's probably one of the reasons why this thingy is in Casual and not in Advanced, haha.

Well, thanks again, and btw, I haven't forgotten about the Spyders, I just have been pretty busy lately, but I'll be sure to check 'em in due time 🙂

No problem @Rayfield Lumina, I happen to be a huge fan of the deck, thus why when I decided to look through your posts this stood out to me. I've got most of the effects and synergies memorized for pure dragonmaids, since I play casually and like their artwork and mechanics so I figured I would look at them based on how well they fit into the archetype's game plan, plus I've never seen the dragonmaid anime so that helped me look past potentially fitting flavor.

As for Spyders, no rush, man. I'm going to keep making things either way, as evidenced by the fact I've made an entire archetype since last we spoke, and I am legit considering gimmicks for a deck that uses face down banishing now, so, thank you for inspiring me.

Well, even if you believe I'm obsessed of banishing face-down, that's not quite the case xD. I suppose I simply didn't notice I did give that kind of cost to about 3 cards, but it wasn't my intention. You know, due to this being the first casual multiples stuff I posted here and the lack of interest it received, I got depressed for a while, so it's good to see someone else taking the time to drop a comment here. I have plans for some other archetypes, but probably I'll be more conservative next time and make something more personal instead of making a support for something already existing (and already powerful) that might offend an experienced player, haha.

Well, even if you believe I'm obsessed of banishing face-down, that's not quite the case xD.

Well, for the record I'm not offended, dragonmaids are not a hill I'm willing to die on, if you had made Infinitrack or Aromage support then maybe...

Small joke aside, I say that if you're making custom cards its always better to make your own stuff instead of trying to work things into an existing archetype, in fact, you could take the concept of making cards based on the dragonmaid anime, find a new archetype name and make something wholely unique from them, play around a bit more with type synergies and charge counters and all that.

another thing: This is all a lot better than the first thing I ever made. unlike past me you actually know the terminology and you had some good, if slightly over the top, ideas.

Oh man, I see xD. What's with that "Dark Aspect" thingy, lol. I'm seeing those cards were made in 2015, so there's a huge jump in your quality compared to before.  I suppose being in this site during the times of feverish activity helped you in becoming a better card maker. But actually, the one I liked the most was that waifu version of Spiritomb. Also Jane's pretty nice, except that it will become a Lv 4 6000 ATK monster if you control other 5 Warrior monsters.

But yeah, next time I'll make original stuff ^_^

'Aspect' is what I called atrributes at the time because I was dumb. a lot of my old stuff was about that bad, but everything between that and my VX8s (my brief attempt at a machine synchro deck) has been lost to time. I'll probly redo some of my old stuff sometime, like I did with Colorflies.
