Tethius Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 This idea came to me in a dream so I put into a card. I present to you: Parrot Scout A staple Searcher for any deck. Re-Balanced Effect: When this card is Normal Summoned or Special Summoned: You can target 2 monsters you control, return those targets to the hand; Special Summon 1 monster from your Deck that has the same name as 1 of those returned monsters.

bloorocksDotD Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 Satellarknights anyone? seems balanced and usable. I don't see any ocg errors and also parrots are f*cking awesome. 11/10 would recommend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tethius Posted October 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 It's supposed to be a staple for any deck, but I can see how Satellarknights can abuse it so I've rebalanced the card. Also, Dark Worlds would abuse the hell out of the original effect but that's also been fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessicaMuddy Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 Cool card, could be used in any deck, 10/10. Don't see any errors with it. Are you going to add Flip Summon to the Summoning conditions too, or will it just be Normal and Special? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the being flipped face-up effect kind of messes with card effect timing, but I'm not too sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newhat Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 If returning the monsters to the hand is part of the cost, this card should not target. If returning the monsters to the hand is part of the effect, that should be after the semicolon ; . This is a decent engine for CyDra, Sylvans or Galaxy, returning the Dragon, Galaxy Soldier or Sylvan Sagequoia to your hand and giving you another one to Special Summon. It also does funky things with Puppet King though that's not consistent enough to be worthwhile. In slower Decks it allows you, when you are ahead, to stay ahead by granting a +1 each turn at the cost of speed. Good enough to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it techs well with Naturia cards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VampireofDarkness Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 Did anyone else think about the uses of this card with Mist Valley? Man, the Field Spell would just be gold and you could get your Apex lock assured with this in no time, and maybe even get some swarm going as well. Not much else to say about it other than what has been already said, would be a cool tech a lot of decks would use. I'm not sure about the timing with Burning Abyss, but if they don't get destroyed before the effect triggers, the combos are just amazing, especially if you can prevent them from destroying themselves if I didn't say that already (Though idk how that would be possible consistently). This is just a fantastic card, it isn't cheap by any means, and it really generates some nice ideas and creative thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sasukekun97 Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 great very versitile card. i can see it being used in many decks. Like sat knights for sure XD. i can see this used in lots of decks. I like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Rooster Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 So lets say someone makes your monsters useless and impossible to tribute, you could Special Summon them from the deck. This is better than Christmas! Or if your Max Warrior has been reduced to a level of 2 and you cannot Xyz Summon your Utopia (Odd situation), you can use Parrot Scout to summon your Max Warrior/other card and Xyz Summon Utopia without a weakling on the field.

razzy Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 I believe the Burning Abyss would be destroyed as soon as this thing is summoned. Also is this thing meant to be able to bring its self back to hand? When this card is Normal or Special Summoned: Target 2 monsters you control except any "Parrot Scout"; return both those targets to the hand, then Special Summon 1 monster from your Deck with the same name as one of the monster returned by this effect.

newhat Posted October 26, 2014 Report Share Posted October 26, 2014 Oh. If it can't return itself, it requires too much setup to use as an engine, even if you can go into a Rank 4 afterwards. It is winmore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
