Dust42 Posted June 17, 2012 Report Share Posted June 17, 2012 the goal of this competition is to create a small set of cards that create an archetype. An archetype consists of cards of similar theme that all work together, like the Elemental Hero archetype, the Lightsworn archetype, the Fortune Lady archetype, the Guardian archetype, and the Six Samurai archetype. The only criteria for this archetype is that the cards: 1.Follow a theme 2.Support each other in some way, shape or form now, keep it small, make sure that, at max, there is only 10 cards, and that, at least, there are 3 cards. Real cards can be part of your archetype, but they still must follow the theme. At least 2 cards must be original and not real. Entry fee: 10 points (to enter, click my name, then click the "donate points button" and donate the points, you will then be entered) 1st place prize: number of people who entered x8 2nd place prize: 10 points 3rd place prize: 5 points I will judge you based on the following: 1. balancing. No overpowered cards 2. formatting. Make sure that it's like a real Yugioh card (for example, the single digits on atk/def should always be 0), also, your theme consistency will be judged here 3. Resonance. How well the cards perform together. Do too well in this category and it will harm balancing. I will not judge with points. The theme can be anything (with the exception of naked people, etc.) good luck to you. Participants: 1. newhat 2. xi-3 3. Damage Inc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xi-3 Posted June 18, 2012 Report Share Posted June 18, 2012 Lets see. If I adapt my Powerpuff cards I have: - 3 low-level monsters - 3 equip spells - 3 high-level monsters - 2 fusion monsters Which means I have to omit 1 card. Probably the low-level fusion, then. If this is permissible then please do tell me and I will send the points and start adapting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xi-3 Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 S'alright. The text colour changes when you change the Rarity. I try to use the most visible ones even if it doesn't match the actual Rarity of the card -- but I mean, I usually make cards that are unique anyway, which means there's only 1 of them in a deck -- no copies. The only copies are the cards that are staples to a deck, like attack blockers and effect negaters. And cards that bring out higher-level versions of low-level monsters. So I use white text on my Fusion Monsters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dust42 Posted June 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 gtg at the moment, but I'll announce the winners without any explanation. 1.newhat 2.Damage Inc. 3.Xi-3 I'll explain and distribute points when I return. ok, I'm back. Xi-3. Although you had the most cards with the most intricate effects, the intricate effects had little to do with each other. They got attack/defense boosts and had support cards that helped each other, but other than that, they aren't very helpful to each other. On top of that, you made them a trio of cards that were supposed to be equal, yet Blossom gives more boosts that bubbles or buttercup. Why not 250 atk and def instead of 500? Damage Inc. These cards are all a step in the right direction, but there are so few... They all seem to rely on one of the other particular cards, and it really hampers usefulness if 4 cards all depend on 1 card. (only one of them, Z striker, can banish, yet they all have effects revolving around it. Z striker isn't even continuous, he's 1 use only. The archetype is supposed to perform independently. Also, the 4 star 2400 attack monster can't even be used, because Z striker can't banish card in your hand. newhat: these Jellies are great. The only improvement I can think to make would be to help the jellies get things to the grave, because otherwise you're summoning them just to die, (though it is the only thing that keeps it from being OP/realistic with 3 star 1900 attack monsters.)

Wyvernstorm Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 I already have my own set of Archetype monsters. So, is it too late for me to join? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xi-3 Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Yes. Yes it is: the contest is over. Mind you, there could be a lot more just like it. Dust, the boosts the Girls give each other depend on their personalities, and it all culminates with the Fusion version's full 4000. I could tweak the amount they get as boosts, but it's not like it matters now. Their Tier-1 versions had to be depowered by a significant amount. Fortunately their [i]PPGZ[/i] versions made that much easier, and their abilities depend mostly on their equipment. The teenaged versions are more a reflection of the classic CN versions. This was a fun contest, though, so I don't mind coming in last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
