This should've ended 2 hours ago, but yeah, I was busy with other stuff. 

 

Anyway...let's see which one of you ends up going to the tiebreaker and who ends up in the 3rd place match.

 

Card A

 

I guess the "can't die by battle" thing is cute, since it does trigger its own effect to flip something down. Don't get me wrong, I got no problems with a BoM of sorts, but given that a lot of stuff has targeting immunity nowadays or is a Link Monster (which can't be flipped face-down for obvious reasons) plus the fact this does return itself to the hand and leaves you open for attack, yeah. Nowadays, it isn't rare to see swarm boards that'll probably kill you even in casual play. Card could've gone without the LP cost because yeah, it's comparable to Book of Moon and even that isn't seeing much use nowadays. 

 

Card B

 

Spirits technically need the summoning speed because of their inherent "cannot SS me" clause, so this will help somewhat with keeping them on-board. For Beasts, I don't think there really are any notable ones that would benefit from ignoring the conditions, but guess it's there. Negation is fine, though I'm a bit iffy about sending this to the GY with the consideration this doesn't actually destroy the card it negated. But...considering the fact it does address a few forms of common removal, it works out in the end. 

 

---

 

Voting B in this case as it technically does more in the long run and isn't dead. A has the advantage of being able to be SS'd and whatnot, but that's about it.

 

But yeah, Dova made card B and thus goes to the tiebreaker match for all the pride/glory. Whom his opponent will be shall be decided in the other match (which he voted in, so...)
