Therrion Posted June 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Good luck Plainview! Sorry for the slow post, was busy. Let the voting commence! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L0SS Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 No worries. Good luck to you, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mehmani Posted June 25, 2013 Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Well, to start, Therrion's card needs to be Fusion Summoned avec Polymerization without any other Fusion support, which immediately makes it rather situational and a little useless. It's a shame, because effect-wise it isn't too bad, but it will hardly set the metagame on fire (if you'll excuse the pun). I expect a created card to be ablaze with power (again with the fire puns. I'm getting rather 'emberted'), to actually do something interesting. Better summoning conditions would help, but a more powerful effect too would be needed to give the card more vim. Having two monsters with specific attributes is, in itself, rather situational. It's more difficult to plan for than a Synchro or Xyz Summon, so you had better make the product of your incricate play worth the while. Plainview's card edges it, I am afraid, simply because it is easier to get out. It's not exactly brilliant, or even particularly good, but it is just simpler to summon than Therrion's effort. The 'targetting' protection effect isn't very useful as a lot of destructive Spells and Traps don't target (Dark Hole, for example) and the burn damage is a punny touch, but not really roaring with power either. My vote goes to Plainview. Please excuse my puns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Therrion Posted June 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Yeah, I considered the "without polymerization" but every single YCMer as of late that makes a Fusion has used it, so I thought it would impact creativity as a whole. #Dragon'sMirror 1-0 Plainview Lead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My vote goes to Plainview. Please excuse my puns. This is why people who are out of touch of the metagame shouldn't vote. Therrion's card can be Summoned via Polymerization, sure, but have you forgotten that Dragon's Mirror is a card? Not to mention that one of the most powerful decks in the metagame (Dragon Rulers) could Summon this card with Dragon's Mirror, if need be. Whether it be using Eclipse Wyvern as one of the materials (to grab either Light and Darkness Dragon, which isn't ran anymore in the deck, but that's a different story, or a Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon) or just Effect Veiler as one of the materials, the card is good enough that it could be ran in the deck, given how it can kamikaze itself upon Summon with its effect and burn your opponent for 1300 and increase your LP by 2400, recycle a banished Dragon Ruler and draw a card since you destroyed it with a card effect that you own. Plainview's card harder to Summon? Are you kidding me? You seriously are out of touch with the meta. This card has the same problem as Therrion's card, it can be ran in Dragon Rulers, and can be Summoned with great ease. Seriously, just get Blaster + Redox out and bam, you have the materials ready for this. Also, given how this can use your opponents monster(s) as materials, if your opponent dares to leave a EARTH or a FIRE out on the field, it's easy grabbings for you. Not to mention that you're talking about how "a lot of destructive Spells and Traps don't target", which is so wrong in this format. Dragon Rulers run Xyz Monsters that target with their effects, Spellbooks have effects that target, Evilswarms I do not know about too much, but I know that they run more stunnish cards that target. So no, Plainviews card isn't bad against todays metagame. What hinders it is the fact that it's only once per turn. Also, fyi, nobody runs Dark Hole anymore in this format. So yeah, I have to give my vote for Therrion. Mainly because it's actually harder to Summon than Plainview's card, given how Therrion's card forces you to run additional cards like Dragon's Mirror to actually get it out on the field, but pays off in the end for Summoning it.

Thanks Zanda. 1-1. By the by, I'm pretty sure Alfred said that my card was easier to summon than Therrion's, not harder. I thought that it would be quite fun to side in your Extra deck against Dragon Rulers. It is also a Rekindling target, if that means anything at all. Regardless, thank again.

Seems like I was still half asleep when I wrote that. Oh well, my point still stands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Therrion Posted June 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 Thanks for the review and in-depth analysis. Didn't really think of Dragon Rulers when making it. I guess it could be used there, but I believe it would slow them down if I'm not mistaken. And oh, you saw it could kamikaze, nice catch :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Therrion Posted July 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Well, the warm up was a tie due to insufficient voting. Had fun. Will change title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L0SS Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 :'( That was a nice way to get into 1v1s. Might do a proper one, if I can bring myself to. Cheers, Therrion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Therrion Posted July 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 You should, you're a good cardmaker. You probably would've won if this was a Leaderboard (where voters actually look). Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
