Enigmatic Elf

LIGHT
✪✪✪✪ (Level 4)
[spellcaster/Effect]
ATK/ 800 DEF/ 2000

 

Once while this card is face-up on the field (Quick Effect): You can target 1 other monster on the field; it gains 800 ATK. After damage calculation: Gain LP equal to the ATK of any opponent's monster that battles this card. When this card is destroyed by battle or by card effect: Draw 1 card.

 

[spoiler=Retrain Of]http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Mystical_Elf

Inspired by the other retrains of Yugi's cards (e.g. Giant Sentry of Stone).

 

 

[spoiler=Edit Log]Added the ATK gain effect in reference to its "ability" in the anime and manga.

Ohai Mystical Elf reborn (cue the obvious).

 

But that being said, the LP gain is fine and works in character, though issue being that nowadays it's really only a one use thing because she's probably gonna be dead after the battle (y'know, most monsters can/will exceed 2000 ATK). Granted, you COULD have stuff up that can protect from battle destruction and mitigate damage, but that's added investment just to not die. Draw effect when it dies is fine. 

 

Then again, monsters with high ATK just contribute to you getting more LP otherwise, so...make of that as you will.

So yeah, card is fine as-is, considering the source monster. 

 

(I didn't open the spoiler, mind you, but likely didn't need to)

Looks good, actually. The float effect makes it great fodder for engines like Metalfoes, Sky Iris, Diagram. The ATK boost adds sweet flavor. If anything I would make the timing of its battle effect before damage calculation, so you gain LP even if it's destroyed by battle.

I think the effect would still resolve even if it got destroyed by battle with the effect as is (I did pull the wording from Heraldic Beast Basilisk which from my experience had its effect applied so as long as it was attacked, but I suppose there is room for me and a group of people to be largely mistaken). If I made it into before damage calculation, I don't think its effect would be resolved after being flipped as a result of being attacked.

 

I need to brush up on my understanding of Damage Step ruling anyhow so... Clarification would be nice.
