Anti-Apocryphal Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 So yeah, this is more of just a personal thing for me just to make sure I still have some good ol' YCM spirit in me. I doubt my OCG will be as good as what it used to be, and doubt my effect will be all that great. I don't expect to win. [spoiler=Prize] 100 points to winner.

If you do these steps in opposite order, I will not accept you (so basically no reservations). Copy + paste OCG also in the PM (failing to do so will result in an automatic rejection of your application to be my opponent). Also, leave the [i]Creator [/i]slot blank.

Nathanael D. Striker Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 Alright, I'm in. Card was sent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anti-Apocryphal Posted July 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 I'll have mine made soon as well. Then, I will post them both in the random format. I'll post when this is ready; it shouldn't be more than a day or so.lol It's ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catterjune Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 You know, I've wanted card contests to not state who made which card for the longest time, since that just leads to people have a preconception of who made what card. This topic gets an A+ from me just on that. [b]Sunset:[/b] [i]Activate only when your opponent declares an attack: discard the top card of your deck; activate the corresponding effect according to the card discarded: - Trap Card: Your opponent must skip their next Battle Phase and pay Life Points equal to half the ATK of the destroyed monster[/i] Umm... what destroyed monster? [i]- Spell Card: Your opponent must discard the next Lv. 5 or higher Monster Card they draw and pay Life Points equal to half the ATK of the discarded monster[/i] How exactly would you check this? You can't ask to see the card they draw, since it might be a level 4 or a spell or trap and seeing their card would be an unfair advantage to you. Having a third person, like a judge might help at a regionals or something but if he's gotta sit at your duel until a level 5+ is drawn it sounds like it could be a huge hassle. [i]- Monster Card: Select a monster on your opponent's side of the field: destroy it; your opponent must pay Life Points equal to half the original DEF of the selected card[/i] So basically, a one in three (or 18-ish/34 chance, depending on ratios) of actually having a good effect? Nothing is even negated so why is this a counter trap exactly? Do you not know what a counter trap is? [b]Martyr's Retribution[/b] A much simpler card with a much simpler effect. The discard cost is kind of meh though, but its understandable since having Sakuretsu Armor + Burn could be seen as pretty overpowered. My vote goes to Card B, by a long shot. It's much more realistic and less needlessly complicated. Also: [right]BOB SAGET LIKES SOB BAGET[/right] I wouldn't use either of these in my decks TBQH though.

Nathanael D. Striker Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 0-1 Card B Thanks for voting Pika. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Love of Ghibli Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 [left]AHHH THE TRAINS ARE COMING[/left] I can't provide new information that hasn't been said by the first voter but I'll try. Sunset: Long story short at no point is anything actually negated/countered and while I think that forcing your opponent to "pay" lifepoints is a cute gimmick to pay half seems slightly underwhelming and minimal I mean at least Judgement of Anubis and/or Magic Cylinder you could take chunks of damage out of people. Martyrs retribution: Well this too does not counter anything in fact this is a sakeretsu armor with a burn effect. But the lack of wording makes it a lot much clearer and a lot less open to mistakes (like the trap part in the first card). I will give my vote to Card B.

Nathanael D. Striker Posted July 24, 2012 Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 0-2 Card B Thank you very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anti-Apocryphal Posted July 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Alright, if Card B gets one more win, the match is over. If not, then we will continue. And thanks for the thing about the format of the match; I personally also hate the biased opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anti-Apocryphal Posted July 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2012 Yeah sure. Good job. I had a feeling my effect wasn't that great. Lock.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
