Magic Mega Pea

LIGHT Level 2 [ Plant / Effect ] 800/1000

Cannot be used for the Tribute Summon of a monster with 2400 ATK. If used for a Tribute Summon: You can draw 1 card, then, if a Spell Card(s) had you gain an additional Normal Summon this turn, you can banish that card(s) from your GY and draw 1 card for each. During your Main Phase: You can Special Summon this card from your GY, but banish it when it leaves the field. When Summoned this way: Tribute Summon 1 monster as an additional Normal Summon, using this card as a Tribute, and if you cannot, destroy it. You can only use this effect of "Magic Mega Pea" once per turn.

Basically, if you use "Double Summon" or "Arrivalrival", this card replenishes their loss.

It revives itself for the use of a Tribute Summon, in which you can repeat and draw.

 

It is meant as Tribute Summon that doesn't necessarily involve Monarchs. You can use the Mega Monarchs and the Heavenly/Underworld Monarchs, but you cannot use the Vanity's/Majesty's cards or the single-Tribute ones. It is meant to support the under-supported other Tribute Summons.

Am I going to run this over the Squire/Knight pairing? Are Monarchs known for their running of Spells to gain extra NS/Sets? To be sure, the immediate Tribute Summon effect from the GY is interesting, especially with how generic it is, and is going to call any Tribute deck, but you need to think of consistency. And this card is only one you want in your GY, atm. You could try and immediate Tribute Summon with a Spell, which is what this card is designed for, but no Tribute Summon decks are lacking enough to run this while strong enough for this to make much difference.

 

Well, it sets out to meet its goal. Can't fault it there. I don't think it needs the 2.4k restriction, though; remove that, and it's clear sailing.

800/1000 Squire stats, I like it.

Was going to suggest a hard OPT for the first effect as well, but the Spells have hard OPT themselves so it should be fine... unless you want to play safe and futureproof in case a Spell is ever made that lacks the clause.

I appreciate that it's LIGHT/Plant, you don't see many LIGHT/Plants around xD

Evil me wishes it was a Tuner so it sinergizes with Needlefiber, but that wouldn't go well with its Tribute Summon theme.

It reminds me of Amarylease actually, and funnily enough both like to be in the GY for their effects. Now, if only Plants had more milling tools in addition to Foolish Burial and Meliae.

Didn't see the squire stats. Hm.

 

Perhaps leave the Monarch restriction.

Maybe instead of the 2400 ATK restriction, you could say “Monarch” monster instead. That way, non-Monarchs are excluded from the restriction, and Monarchs with 2800 ATK can’t be Tribute Summoned using this card. That’s assuming this card is meant to not work for Monarchs, though.

 

Overall, this is a pretty good card. It gives you both draw power and easier Tribute Summons. If your deck runs based on Tribute Summons and you draw this card, then you’re pretty much set.

Thank you for the feedback everyone n.n

I don't know if I want anti-archetype clauses. It doesn't feel right to be specifically anti-[name].

To be honest, I'm more concerned over the anti-meta choices (Majesty's Fiend, Vanity's Fiend, Vanity's Ruler) that don't let players play. Not that they are topping right now, but I really dislike the playstyle of floodgating players.

 

I don't particularly mind Monarchs themselves all that much, though they've been deemed mostly the only monsters worth Tribute Summoning for the longest time so an edge to something else would be nice (then again, the Monarch decks nowadays tend to Tribute Summon 2800 more often than they do 2400, so that is not really a point I strongly hold to).

It had a hard OPT clause to both effects, but yeah, both Spells are hard OPT already. Then again, the Squire stats make this very accessible so the draws might over do it.

Though Monarchs don't use those Spells, and single-draw fodder is not THAT powerful. If anything, it was partly intended as a potential engine because the one thing Monarchs do lack are being able to draw into more Monarchs, with their Continuous Spell searcher being hard OPT and Ether is limited. I wonder if this would be able to create its build.

 

There is Lonefire Blossom, and being LIGHT means you have the Brilliant Fusion engine. Screw the Domain lock anyways.

The idea is that Lonefire Blossom, Brilliant Fusion (as a LIGHT material), and the Squires, all can set it up. Making it actually very flexible.

Lonefire dump > Predaplant combo > Brilliant Fusion play = up to 3 Normal Summons and no wear down on advantage from using Double Summon/Arrivalrival.

Though what the ideal Tribute Summon for those plays would be, I'm not quite sure xD
