I bring you . . . Death Sentence! (Ginger, Emissary of Sentence)

Obviously, the topic title and the card's name has pun intended (sentence > combination of words and sentence > punishment, judgment). Because its just a sentence anyway, so why not?

Ginger, Emissary of Sentence

LIGHT/Level 10

Spellcaster/Effect

If a card is activated that has 6 sentences or more in its (printed) text, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand). This card gains 200 ATK for each sentences on all face-up card's (printed) text on the field, except "Ginger, Emissary of Sentence". Unaffected by monster effect whose ATK is lower than this card's.

?/?

 

Idea come from a card in shadowverse called "Worldwielder Ginger", and somehow i just have a thought on how the effect should be on ygo given the lore of her power, but doesn't reflect her real effect on that said game, only converted her power and lore into effect.

I like this effect. Very unique, no denying that.

 

If that was a real effect in the game, it'd be interesting to see how people would use it. It would no doubt most likely be used from the effect of a Synchro or Xyz (since some of their kind has a lot of sentences), but I can imagine people would use it in different ways. Especially since it says "a card" and every "face-up card" which means any card. Will no doubt be played by swarmers and people who have a lot of equip/continuous spell/trap cards.

just as the above poster said deck with high capability of summon or require big amount of  cards to form board is a go to for this card

 

the different things is i have my bet placed of Pendulum deck since not only it has potential of numerous sentences due to dual text box it has but even with their current state being limited by Link ruling dumping 2 Tribute to summon this card is still very viable (or you can just go Supreme King Gate pendulum summoned it.

 

i do think that the stat gain can be rise higher.sure, it does count combine amount sentences of all card but through fast skimming of crazy thick sentences filled decks i can't see this card get past 2000-2400 that easy. well there also problem of non-monster source removal but she doesn't necessarily  need one for now (well some people still traumatize by Apoqli Killer)

In reply to Dr. Jolly the Glot cuz the quote didnt work on smartphone:

 

Yea totally forgot pendulum exist :p

My comparison of creating that card is with nomi monster where it has "cant be summoned. Must be summoned" lalalalala, namely bls envoy, has 6-7 sentences from 1 card, so she atleast has 2000+ atk min. with decent number of face-up cards.

 

As for protection, originally intended to have "unaffected by effect of a card which it has 3 or less sentence(s) in its (printed) text", but changed it cuz it may be too much, but yea, sky high atk and monster effect immunity is too much maybe, ill remove the protection.

Maybe because I'm not much of a fan of YuGiOh anymore (meaning, I don't play it, but I'll still watch the show). I only come here to make cards because I love creating ^_^ and to see what others create.

 

But anywho, I think the necessity for effect immunity is quite ridiculous nowadays. People will rate any card low just because of no immunity. I guess I get it, but I personally think the constant "but it has no immunities" is getting quite insane. I do get it because of many outrageous monster effects YuGiOh may have now, but at some point, I feel all big monsters will eventually have immunities on everything and no monster can activate any effect on any other monster, thus bringing back the need of ATK/Def. So ye, that's my opinion on the whole "no immunity" stuff XD

I didn't say the above in a frustrated/angry tone, so if it sounded like this, let this sentence be reassurance.

It looks nice. Cards with 6+ sentences on it aren't easy to come by AFAIK so you won't be Special Summoning this with its effect too often. But in exchange it gets the potential of reaching a really high ATK and the protection is solid if it also applies on cards in the grave or banished, making it unaffected by, let's say, Fire Hand and stuff like that.

 

You need to fix the text a bit, however: For example, monster cards don't activate, their effects do, so technically this summoning condition can't apply on monster effects. You can make it self-Summon when such monster is Summoned or activates its effect, though.

In quote of Vectra:

Well maybe im going to take the middle options both from u and Jolly the Glot, having protection, but toned down into certain phase (like bp only?), so it still leaves vulnerable to removal, but has immunity during bp, making her a pure beater.

 

In reply to Darj:

Oh yea, the way its wording only apply to activated s/t, so maybe something like this will do? : "If a card or effect is activated OR a monster is Summoned that has 6 or more in its (printed) text . . ."

Yeah, something like that. I would go for:

"If a card or effect is activated or a monster is Summoned, that has 6 or more sentences in its (printed) text: You can Special Summon this card from your hand."

 

I also turned it into a Quick Effect that starts a chain so the Summon can be properly chained to the Summon/activation. If it's more of an inherent Summon that doesn't start a chain nor anything, it may have conflicts with the timings and interactions; I mean, you would Summon this card in the middle of a chain if you are responding it to an effect activation, and IDK if that's possible.
