Kyng's Old Account Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 We need a project. Something we can get out soon, quickly, and easily, with minimal thought required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Yeah, something like a mini-contest perhaps? Something simple and shouldn't take much effort to do. edit1: Anyway, how about something like this for the FIRE clan? Ritual of Rebirth: Dance of the Fire Spirits Ritual Spell Card Reveal a FIRE Ritual Monster in your hand. Tribute monsters from your side of the field or from your hand whose total level is equal or higher than the revealed monster, then Ritual summon the revealed monster. A monster summoned by this effect gains Ritual Counters equal to the amount of monsters tributed by this card. When a Ritual Monster summoned by this card's effect destroys a monster by battle when this card is in your graveyard, draw 1 card. Insert Name Here *8 Pyro/Ritual/Effect FIRE 2800/2000 When this card is summoned, place 1 Ritual Counter to this card. Once per turn, you can remove 1 Ritual Counter from this card to destroy 1 card on the field. When this card is destroyed, add 1 FIRE monster from your graveyard to your hand. Note that they're still drafts, and the ritual monster is there just to showcase how the counters can be used, so if it's kinda plain, then I'm sorry.

Delibirb Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Sounds like the kind of idea we were going for, yeah. I like the draw 1 card in the ritual spell. Something like this for the non-rituals?: [Name} 2 Pyro/Effect FIRE 500/1300 Once per turn, you can reveal 1 FIRE Ritual Monster in your hand to add 1 Ritual Counter to a face-up Ritual Monster you control. When this card is destroyed, shuffle 1 Ritual Spell card from your graveyard into your deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunKistRebelution Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Interesting... I am starting to like the Ritual Counters idea, whereas before I was unsure about its usefulness. Pokemon X has definitely lessened my activity, but y'all may rest assured I will return. It helps to have an actual basis for the FIRE archetype. Just a thought, does anyone have a problem with the name "Pyronic" for them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uploaded half of my card art that I used over the 1 year I've been here. The other halve? They're a bit more... 'private.' Taken from Danbooru, Safebooru, Gelbooru and Zerochan.

But if everyone else agrees, than I wont complain. Personally I would prefer something that isnt directly fire related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 Dunno, but Pyronic sounds a bit ironic, isn't it? I'd prefer something that references the ritual theme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyng's Old Account Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 The name should be "Agnian". Not only is the term Agni Sanskrit for Fire, but the Hindu God Agni from whom this name is derivative from is the supreme director of religious ceremonies and duties. Vedic rituals all involve Agni.If that isn't a perfect tie to Fire with Rituals, I don't know what is.Also, Toyo, well done with the Album. I hope it'll be as appreciated as it deserves to be.

SunKistRebelution Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 I like Kyng's suggestion; it's far more grounded than my spur of the moment idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delibirb Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 I concur as well. Do we feel the need to put "Agnian" to a vote? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delibirb Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Cool, then what else did we do for the Highlords we havent done for Agnians? We have the basic layout for what the cards' mechanics will do, and a name of course. On to the next, or...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunKistRebelution Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 Can I just say that I would really like it to just be generic Ritual Counters for the Agnian big baddies. That way we could remodel the mechanic in a way similar to XYZs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Yeah, that's one of my concerns when designing the ritual spell. We can now balance the ritual supports by making them interact with the Ritual Counters, while we try to avoid falling into TCG's Xyz support pitfall. It can be said that our Ritual is a version of Xyz monster that needed much more dedication, but the effects are designed to be more potent. ...while incorporating Fusion's need of a spell, and Synchro's level reliance. ...yeah, the concept would really need much more testing and balancing, since we need to find the boundary between broken and shit, and that boundary will be really thin for Rituals. Ah well, I'll try to come up for something resembling a concept for Fusions later. Xyz can be last, since it should be the simplest, right? Also, I think Agnian still need a clan-wide gimmick other than ritual summoning. Even Gishkis got two of it(shuffling cards into the deck, divination) and I think Highlord already got them? After finishing the concepts, we can start constructing the clans, and maybe start making the generics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyng's Old Account Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 [spoiler=Idea]Truth be told, I'm gonna go back to what I said earlier and say this whole Duel Terminal Concept, while fun, is far too demanding for such a young club. I'm gonna suggest an alternative that we can run alongside it:- We make a proper "Cardmaker's Cabal" booster pack, a 99/100 Card Set of Custom Cards, created by the members here. It needs no story at all, just a simple task. The 99/100 cards should be equally distributed to members here, noting that the general system is that cards that are beyond 45 tend to change from Monsters to Spells and Traps.[/spoiler]Regarding what we're doing with Agnians and their Ritual Counters: It doesn't need to be very complicated or intricate. The Ritual Counters should simply serve as additional Levels to the Monsters. That way, not only do we provide Ritual Support across the board, but we can have the more/most powerful boss monsters be Level 12, as well as demand some Ritual Counters for their summon. Heck, we could even introduce a 5000 ATK Ritual Monster, since Fusions have two, Xyz has one. We might beat Synchros to something.If we're going for what I've mentioned, we could also prevent the Rituals being used in Xyz Summons for balancing's sake, or have a form of Summoning Sickness.

SunKistRebelution Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Wait, Kyng, are you suggesting summoning sickness for Rituals or XYZs? Because I think it is absolutely needed for XYZs. I think that is a great idea, actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aix Posted October 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Hm, let's have some actual cardmaking going on here. Everyone, make a balanced and usable +1 upon Normal Summon monster and post it here and we can all have a say on if it is good or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delibirb Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 +1 Normal Summon? OK: [spoiler='Mein'] The Welcome Invasion Force LIGHT - Machine Level 2 ATK - 1000 / DEF - 2500 When this card is Normal or Flip Summoned, you can Special Summon 1 "The Welcome Invasion Force" from your hand or Deck in attack position. If you Xyz Summon the turn you activate this effect, both players take 1000 damage. [/spoiler] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathanael D. Striker Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 I'm not sure if posting this is allowed, but spots are still open: http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/308301-leaderboard-ycm-1v1-fall-open-2013/ As for the +1 upon Normal Summon, you are walking on a fine line with that one. The restrictions have to be just right to consider that balanced. I know what most of you are thinking, and Special Summoning is the most tricky +1 upon Normal Summon (or in general) to balance due to the potential Synchro or Xyz shenanigans that can happen. Like I said before, you are walking on a fine line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aix Posted October 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Also has far too much DEF and definitely not in favour of a Level 2 Tour Guide that burns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyng's Old Account Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 [spoiler=It is probably cheaty by making it nice and generic, but here's mine:]When this card is Normal Summoned: You can reveal 1 Trap Card in your hand; Draw 1 Card.[/spoiler] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maeriberii Haan Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Distant Star, Arachen Level 4 Pyro/Effect Light 1700/400 When this card is Normal Summoned; if you control no other monsters, special summon 1 level 3 or lower non-tuner monster from your graveyard or hand. During the end phase of the turn you Normal Summoned this card; if you did not special summon a monster from the extra deck this turn, this card is treated as a tuner and you can Synchro Summon during this end phase.
