Tinkerer Posted May 22, 2022 Report Share Posted May 22, 2022 Hello, fine peoples! Just as the video is a part 2, this thread is actually a part 2 that ties into a previous series of cards as well as a previously written lore for the cards. The links take you to each of the previous threads. Just as this is a part 2 of the old series of cards, this will also have a part 2 to the corresponding lore. You can find the link explaining the lore of these cards HERE. Just like last time, the cards that are posted in this thread will be a new set of archetypes that all tie into the single archetype of "Drift" quick-play spells. These spells are posted below so you can have a baseline. Full Disclosure: I am posting these in the Advanced section because my previous thread was in this section. That said, I had made a number of these cards well over 2 years ago and my design philosophy (as well as the game itself) has changed quite a lot since then. Once I get to the later archetypes, this shouldn't matter as much since I will be making them from scratch, but the first couple archetypes are holdovers. Let me know if they are OP or UP and I might be open to changing them (I'd be totally open, but I'd need to reread a lot of my previous stuff to make sure they don't conflict with lore which... is a pain ">_>) So without further ado, onto the Drift spells! Up the Beat! Quick-Play Spell (This card is always treated as a "Drift" Quick-Play Spell) Discard 1 card; add 1 "Drift" Quick-Play Spell (except "Up the Beat!") and 1 monster that lists ""Drift" Quick-Play Spell" in its card text from your Deck to your hand. You can only activate 1 "Up the Beat!" per turn. Full Яeversal Quick-Play Spell (This card is always treated as a "Drift" Quick-Play Spell) Discard 1 "Drift" Quick-Play Spell; draw 2 cards. Your opponent cannot activate cards in response to a "Drift" Quick-Play Spell's activation or effect for the rest of the turn. You can only activate 1 "Full Яeversal" per turn. Parallel Drift Quick-Play Spell Can be activated from your hand during either player's turn. Target any number of monsters that list ""Drift" Quick-Play Spell" in their card text (min. 2). Move those targets to different Main Monster Zones on your side of the field and change their battle positions, then, if all the monsters you control are in the same battle position (ATK or DEF) when this effect resolves, destroy a number of cards your opponent controls equal to the number of cards you targeted. Inertia Drift Quick-Play Spell Can be activated from your hand during either player's turn. Target 1 monster you control that lists ""Drift" Quick-Play Spell" in its card text. Move it to an empty Main Monster Zone on your side of the field and change its battle position, also, it gains 1000 ATK and DEF until the End Phase of the next turn. If this effect changed a monster into attack position during the Battle Phase, immediately after this effect resolves, that monster can declare an attack. Feint Drift Quick-Play Spell Can be activated from your hand during either player's turn. Target 1 monster you control that lists ""Drift" Quick-Play Spell" in its card text. Move it to an empty Main Monster Zone on your side of the field and change its battle position, then you can move it to an empty Main Monster Zone on your side of the field and change its battle position. If you move the target twice by this effect, you can Special Summon 1 "Afterimage Drift Token" in the Zone the target first moved to. The token is treated as a monster that lists ""Drift" Quick-Play Spell" in its card text, also its Level, Type, Attribute, ATK and DEF are the same as the target, but it is destroyed during the End Phase. You can only activate 1 "Feint Drift" per turn. Superior Drift Quick-Play Spell Can be activated from your hand during either player's turn. Target 1 monster you control that lists ""Drift" Quick-Play Spell" in its card text. Move it to an empty Main Monster Zone on your side of the field and change its battle position, then, negate the effects of all cards in the same column as the target. You can only activate 1 "Superior Drift" per turn. Apex Drift Quick-Play Spell Can be activated from your hand during either player's turn. Target 1 monster you control that lists ""Drift" Quick-Play Spell" in its card text. Move it to an empty Main Monster Zone on your side of the field and change its battle position, then, activate the appropriate effect based on whose turn it is when this effect resolves: - Your turn: The monster can declare a second attack this turn. - Your opponent's turn: Inflict damage to your opponent equal to the target's ATK. D.D. Drift Quick-Play Spell Can be activated from your hand during either player's turn. Target 1 monster you control that lists ""Drift" Quick-Play Spell" in its card text. Banish it until the end of the Phase. When the card returns to the field, gain LP equal to its ATK, also, it can declare a direct attack during your next Battle Phase. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinkerer Posted June 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2022 (edited) (Link to the story piece HERE) ~~~ Fate Shapers Unlike their predecessors who let their lives be driven by Destiny, these racers take Fate into their own hands, whittling down the opponent's ability to break through their boss monster while cutting away the opponent's options to fight back.

Tinkerer Posted June 26, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 Bump~ Got the next archetype ready and most of the story portion written, but... I've got a few other commitments, so I'll wait and post the card set along with the next story part. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinkerer Posted September 2, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2022 (edited) (Link to the story piece HERE) ~~~ Draugracer Spirits from the divine place known as "Horizon" brought back by a necromancer and given a new chance to regain their old racing glory. Largely individualistic and dominant drivers, the racers of this archetype are on borrowed time and they make the most of it by showing just how outclassed opposing racers are. A stun-heavy Spirit deck that focuses around tribute summoning and setting cards in order to keep the stun effects live. They can all be Normal Summoned from the GY and they are pretty good at dumping each other in the GY where they can make their comeback. Screw the opponent with their floodgate effects & backrow while using the monsters to beat face. Their "Special Drift" card: Quote Special Drift - Life in Limbo Quick-Play Spell (This card is always treated as a “Draugracer” card) Cannot be activated from the hand. Change the battle positions of all monsters on the field, then negate the effects of all monsters on the field except the monster with the highest DEF until the End Phase.

You can only activate 1 “Special Drift” Quick-Play Spell per turn. ...and now for the rest of the archetype: Draugracer Animator - Pandus De-Necrus LIGHT **** Spellcaster/Effect When this card is Normal Summoned: You can reveal 1 “Drift” Quick-Play Spell from your hand; Set that revealed card, then send 1 “Draugracer” monster from your Deck to the GY, and if you do, Set 1 “Draugracer” Quick-Play Spell card from your Deck. If your opponent activates the effect of a Special Summoned monster while the only monster(s) you control (min.1) are Normal Summoned/Set: You can send this card from your hand or field to the GY; negate that effect and destroy that card. 1500/1500 Draugracer Theonys WIND **** Rock/Spirit/Effect Cannot be Special Summoned. You can Normal Summon/Set this monster from the GY. You can send 1 “Draugracer” monster from your Deck to the GY, if you do, you can Normal Summon 1 “Draugracer” monster in addition to your Normal Summon/Set. (You can only gain this effect once per turn.) Once per turn, during the End Phase, if this card was Normal Summoned or flipped face-up this turn: Return this card to the hand OR: banish 1 “Drift” Quick-Play Spell from your hand, field, or GY. 1550/1750 Draugracer Vilque WIND **** Rock/Spirit/Effect Cannot be Special Summoned. You can Normal Summon/Set this monster from the GY.

Once per turn, during the End Phase, if this card was Normal Summoned or flipped face-up this turn: Return this card to the hand OR: banish 1 “Drift” Quick-Play Spell from your hand, field, or GY. 1850/1450 Draugracer Olan WIND **** Rock/Spirit/Effect Cannot be Special Summoned. You can Normal Summon/Set this monster from the GY. You can target 1 banished “Drift” Quick-Play Spell; Set that target, also, while that card remains Set on your field, players must Set non-Quick-Play Spells before activating them, also, Spells cannot be activated the turn they are Set. You can only use this effect of “Draugracer Olan” once per turn. Once per turn, during the End Phase, if this card was Normal Summoned or flipped face-up this turn: Return this card to the hand OR: Return this card to the hand OR: banish 1 “Drift” Quick-Play Spell from your hand, field, or GY. 1950/1050 Draugracer Bjyltte WIND ***** Rock/Spirit/Effect Cannot be Special Summoned. You can Normal Summon/Set this monster from the GY. If this card is sent to the GY: You can send 1 “Draugracer” monster from your hand to the GY; draw 1 card. While this card is face-up and you control a Set card(s), your opponent cannot target monsters you control with card effects. Once per turn, during the End Phase, if this card was Normal Summoned or flipped face-up this turn: Return this card to the hand OR: Return this card to the hand OR: banish 1 “Drift” Quick-Play Spell from your hand, field, or GY. 2350/1650 Draugracer Zeruth WIND 8* Rock/Spirit/Effect Cannot be Special Summoned.

You can only use “Draugracer Reincarnation” once per turn. Horizon’s Burning Quick-Play Spell (This card is always treated as a “Draugracer” card) Activate if you have no cards in your hand.

Tinkerer Posted November 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2022 (edited) Virtuauto An ancient alien species named the Veni preserved the life of their planet by hooking themselves up as a hive mind to a massive computer. The species now puppets robotic bodies that maintain the computer while using other bodies to act as "representatives" on their behalf within the galactic community. Typically banned from participating in many races due to their representatives' immortal bodies, the Veni species do not often get to race. Of note, the only ones who would regularly race the robotic reps were a group of racing peacekeepers known as the Galactic Flash, whom they'd developed a friendly rivalry with. ~~~ This archetype has a strong control/"protect-the-castle" playstyle. The monsters can barely be used on their own, but they summon out "ImmortA Tokens" and equip themselves to said tokens in order to give them effects to outpace opponents. Activate a Drift Quick-Play at the correct time, and you could find your token nearly impossible to out! Their "Special Drift" Spell: Quote Special Drift - Memories of All Quick-Play Spell (This card is always treated as a “Virtuauto” card) Can be activated from your hand during either player’s turn. Target 1 monster you control with ““Drift” Quick-Play Spell” in its card text; move it to an empty Main Monster Zone on your field and change its battle position, then, equip it with 1 monster that lists ““Drift” Quick-Play Spell” in its card text from your hand or Deck. If the target would be destroyed, destroy the equipped monster instead. You can only activate 1 “Special Drift” Quick-Play Spell per turn. ...and the remaining cards! Virtuauto Serebrum WIND 6* Cyberse/Effect You can only use the following effect of “Virtuauto Serebrum” once per turn. You can reveal this card in your hand: Apply the appropriate effect. - If you do not control an “ImmortA” monster: Special Summon 1 “ImmortA Token” (LIGHT/Level 8/Machine/ATK 0/DEF 0) and equip this card to that token. - If you control an “ImmortA” monster: Equip this card to an “ImmortA” monster you control, then, draw 1 card and discard 1 card. A monster equipped with this card gains ATK/DEF and an Attribute equal to this card’s ATK/DEF/Attribute, also, it gains this effect. - If this card is targeted with a “Drift” Quick-Play Spell, you can equip 1 “Virtuauto” monster from your Deck to this card. 1000/1400 Virtuauto Bellum FIRE 6* Cyberse/Effect You can only use the following effect of “Virtuauto Bellum” once per turn. You can reveal this card in your hand: Apply the appropriate effect. - If you do not control an “ImmortA” monster: Special Summon 1 “ImmortA Token” (LIGHT/Level 8/Machine/ATK 0/DEF 0) and equip this card to that token. - If you control an “ImmortA” monster: Equip this card to an “ImmortA” monster you control, and negate the effects of 1 monster on the field. A monster equipped with this card gains ATK/DEF and an Attribute equal to this card’s ATK/DEF/Attribute, also, it gains this effect. - This card cannot be targeted for card effects except by “Drift” Quick-Play Spells. 1500/600 Virtuauto Lobos WATER 6* Cyberse/Effect You can only use the following effect of “Virtuauto Lobos” once per turn. You can reveal this card in your hand: Apply the appropriate effect. - If you do not control an “ImmortA” monster: Special Summon 1 “ImmortA Token” (LIGHT/Level 8/Machine/ATK 0/DEF 0) and equip this card to that token. - If you control an “ImmortA” monster: Equip this card to an “ImmortA” monster you control, then, you can negate the effects of 1 face-up Spell/Trap on the field. A monster equipped with this card gains ATK/DEF and an Attribute equal to this card’s ATK/DEF/Attribute, also, it gains this effect. - If this card is targeted by a “Drift” Quick-Play Spell, it cannot be destroyed by battle or other card effects for the rest of the turn. 500/700 Virtuauto Stemm EARTH 6* Cyberse/Effect You can only use the following effect of “Virtuauto Stemm” once per turn. You can reveal this card in your hand: Apply the appropriate effect. - If you do not control an “ImmortA” monster: Special Summon 1 “ImmortA Token” (LIGHT/Level 8/Machine/ATK 0/DEF 0) and equip this card to that token. - If you control an “ImmortA” monster: Equip this card to an “ImmortA” monster you control, and add 1 “Virtuauto” card from your Deck to your hand, but you cannot Special Summon monsters for the rest of the turn. A monster equipped with this card gains ATK/DEF and an Attribute equal to this card’s ATK/DEF/Attribute, also, it gains this effect. - This card gains piercing and can attack a number of times up to the number of times it was targeted by a “Drift” Quick-Play Spell this turn. 800/1000 ImmortA Maintenance LIGHT 8* Machine/Effect Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. This card is treated as a “Virtuauto” monster in your hand. While this card is in your hand, you can activate 1 of the following effects. - Tribute 1 “ImmortA Token” you control; Special Summon this card, then, add up to 4 “Virtuauto” monsters from your GY to your hand with different names, then, discard 2 cards. - Discard this card; activate 1 “Virtuauto’s Hive” from your Deck or GY. It cannot be destroyed by card effects this turn. Once per turn: You can destroy all monsters on the field that share an Attribute with this card. 3000/3000 Virtuauto’s Hive Field Spell When this card is activated: Gain 300 LP for each “Virtuauto” Spell you control. You can activate the effects of “Virtuauto” monsters in your hand as Quick Effects. During the Standby Phase, you can return any number of “Virtuauto” Spells you control to your hand.

Tinkerer Posted December 23, 2022 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2022 (edited) A set of support for a few of the previous archetypes. This support is directly related to the latest portion of the Second Drift storyline: the great race between the Blazing Wheels and the revised undersea team, the Fate Shapers! There's a few cards that support each strategy, with one card that supports both/an old "drift" archetype called the "Destiny Racers". The last card in the set doesn't directly "support" anything per se, but it is a member of one of the previous "Drift" archetypes: the Dimensional Speedstars. Blazing Wheel Support: Quote Blazing Dora of the Horizon FIRE **** Scale:2<>6 Machine/Pendulum/Tuner/Effect PE: "Blazing Wheels" monsters you control gain 300 ATK/DEF.

You cannot Special Summon monsters for the rest of the turn after you activate this effect except "Blazing Wheels" monsters. You can only use this effect of "Blazing Dora of the Horizon" once per turn. ME: (This card is always treated as a “Blazing Wheels” monster) You can target 1 monster you control with ""Drift" Quick-Play Spell" in its card text; gain LP equal to that monster's ATK, also, that monster cannot be destroyed by battle this turn, also it can attack a number of times equal to the number of "Blazing Wheels" monsters you control, but other monsters you control cannot declare an attack this turn.

When this card declares an attack: It gains 100 ATK for each "Drift" Quick-Play Spell in your GY, then, if it has more ATK than the attack target, negate the target's effects until the End Phase. You can only Special Summon "Blazing Striker of the Horizon" once per turn. 1300/1400 Fate Shaper Support: Quote Fate Shaper - Ædra of the Horizon WATER * Machine/Effect (This card is also always treated as a “Destiny Racer” and a “Dimensional Speedstar” monster) Cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects. The top cards of both players' Decks are revealed. Thrice per turn (Quick Effect): If the top cards of both players' Decks are the same card type (Monster, Spell, or Trap), you can banish the top 3 cards of both player's Decks. If your opponent Special Summons a monster(s): You can take 1 "Drift" Quick-Play Spell, 1 "Fate Shaper" Trap, or 1 monster with 0 ATK/DEF that lists ""Drift" Quick-Play Spell" in its card text from your Deck and place it on top or on the bottom of your Deck.

Place this card and all excavated cards on the bottom of your Deck in any order. If this excavated card is placed on the bottom of your Deck, you can Special Summon 1 banished monster or 1 monster with 0 ATK/DEF and ""Drift" Quick-Play Spell" from your GY. You can only use each effect of this card's name once per turn. 0/0 Other: Quote Avatar of the Horizon - Young LIGHT **** Machine/Effect (This card is also always treated as a “Dimensional Speedstar” monster) Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. During the Battle Phase (Quick Effect): You can Special Summon this card from your hand. Return this card to your hand at the end of the Battle Phase. While this card is the only monster you control, its ATK is doubled. If this card is Special Summoned: You can add 1 "Special Drift" Quick-Play Spell from your Deck or GY to your hand. (Quick Effect): Destroy all other monsters you control, then, you can add "Drift" Quick-Play Spells from your GY to your hand equal to the number of cards destroyed by this effect. If this card in its owner's control is destroyed by battle and sent to the GY, you lose the duel. You can only use each effect of "Avatar of the Horizon - Young" once per turn. 1600/1000 Edited February 3, 2023 by Tinkerer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinkerer Posted April 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2023 Update: Edited the Aᴙchfiend archetype. I didn't like how they came out the first time (I was wholly focused on the story) and I'd overlooked some huge things that would have just made them stupidly broken. For example, I forgot to put a HOPT on their summon mechanic... I haven't really put my mind around how they'd work all together, but overall, the deck feels like it should be a lot less broken by forcibly making the deck less streamlined. The condition to summon Aᴙchfiend bodies slightly conflicts with the Adrift instant win condition, which should slow the deck down. In exchange, the Quick-Plays have more straightforward effects and are generally more worthwhile to use. The banish effects are still (typically) better, but players cannot spam the banish effects too quickly/early or they won't have resources to summon the Aᴙchfiends. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinkerer Posted April 14, 2023 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 Galactic Flash Support: Quote Zenith of the Horizon LIGHT 8* Scale: 3<>9 Machine/Pendulum/Effect PE: When this card is activated: You can take 1 Pendulum monster with ""Drift" Quick-Play Spell" in its card text and either place it in your Pendulum Zone or in your Extra Deck face-up, then shuffle this card into your Deck. You can only use this effect of "Zenith of the Horizon" once per turn, also, you cannot Pendulum Summon monsters the turn you activate this effect except "Galactic Flash" monsters. When a card(s) is shuffled into your Deck: Target 1 unused Zone on your opponent's field; that Zone cannot be used this Phase (even if this card leaves the field). ME: (This card is always treated as a "Galactic Flash" monster.) If this is the only "Galactic Flash" monster you control, it is unaffected by the effects of cards in a different column than this card, also, if your opponent doesn't control a monster in the same column as this card, this card can attack directly, but the battle damage is halved. If this card is Pendulum Summoned and is the only monster you control, you can shuffle cards on the field into the Deck equal to the number of face-up Pendulum Spells and "Drift" Quick-Play Spell cards on the field. You cannot attack the turn you use this effect, also, you can only use this effect of "Zenith of the Horizon" once per turn. 2800/1000 Might've gone a bit overboard again Unlike the Aᴙchfiends, I actually liked my design for this one. It's pretty specifically tailored to the GF's playstyle by adding a ton of consistency while also adding another payoff to the "shuffle into the deck" mechanic. The nuke is probably OP since it is multi-card, non-targeting, non-destruction shuffle, but it probably has enough conditions/limitations for it to be fine? You cannot OTK after using the effect, so it's purely a board-breaking tool that hurts overextension (a la Evenly). Other: Quote Dr. Madoka, Cynic of the Horizon DARK 6* Machine/Effect (This card is also always treated as a “Dimensional Speedstar” monster) Cannot be destroyed by card effects. If your opponent activates a monster effect while a "Drift" Quick-Play Spell is in your GY (Quick Effect): You can Special Summon this card from your hand, then, you can either make this monster gain 300 ATK/DEF for each monster you control OR, treat this card as a Tuner. When a "Young" monster with ""Drift" Quick-Play Spell" in its card text leaves the field by your opponent's card while you control this card: Inflict damage to your opponent equal to this card's DEF. 1000/1800 Pandus, Nihilist of the Horizon EARTH **** Spellcaster/Effect You can send this card from your hand or field to the GY (Quick Effect): Immediately after this effect resolves, Normal Summon 1 monster with "Drift" Quick-Play Spell in its card text, then, if your opponent controls more monsters after this effect resolves, place this card on the bottom of your Deck and draw 1 card. You can only use this effect of "Pandus, Nihilist of the Horizon" once per turn. 1500/1500 I really liked how these came out. Madoka is not really a good card, but it is a good midpoint level monster between her multiple variants. It would also be a funny card to burn the opponent for huge damage on the off chance they use a monster-based monster removal effect on a "Young" monster. Pandus is... interesting. It has the potential to be one of the strongest individual cards in the whole series since it is a turn 0 card that enables your Drift Spells while also being an Upstart. However... I designed the card so it misses timing :D . There aren't actually that many monsters that would benefit being summoned off this Pandus' effect, so the card is almost purely a way to cycle around cards to get things together if you go second. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinkerer Posted July 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2023 Bumping this thread since I added a section to the story thread. No new cards today, but slowly getting to the climax which should offer me more design opportunities. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinkerer Posted October 6, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2023 Bump. I don't really have cards for this corresponding section of the story thread, but will probably have some for the next portion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
