Guide

We made another card

Did you wrote the new effect Altair?

So she can see

[crude pelican]

i was outside

[jovial shale]

Inzekt Calamity (Quick-Play Spell)
Destroy 1 "Inzektor" monster you control that is equipped with another "Inzektor" monster; Special Summon 1 "Inzektor" monster from your Deck, whose Level is equal to the combined original Levels of the destroyed monsters. You can banish this card from your GY and discard 1 "Inzektor" monster: Draw 2 cards. You can only use 1 effect of "Inzekt Calamity" per turn, and only once that turn.

Unsure about the wording on the first effect relating to the equip spell thing

[long spruce]

The guessing thing sounds very stupid lmao

[crude pelican]

what do you do when you try to login? yes you try to remember the password hence the guessing

[long spruce]

Ok but the fact that you special summon without restrictions would make it around 97% not guessable

[forest vortex]

Just saying but if you make Cards like these you need to make your Monsters first balance d otherwise a Special summon is a no go

[long spruce]

Also they would need to know the name of your cards

[crude pelican]

yes sure

[crude pelican]

how about a level 4 or lower

[long spruce]

An effect like that just cannot be a thing anyway

Not a fair game

[crude pelican]

how about guessing the attribute

[long spruce]

->

That would be better but

Isn't your deck mostly dark or something?

[crude pelican]

it has all 6 attributes but all are cyberse

[long spruce]

Still, I wouldn't say it's a good choice

[crude pelican]

how about the level of the monster

[long spruce]

4 or lower?

Yes that's ok

[crude pelican]

yes

[long spruce]

1/4

[crude pelican]

is it fair?

[long spruce]

It's ok but make it like this:

If the guess is wrong the monster stays on the field and blocks the attack but it's banished face-down if it were to be destroyed by battle. If it's right your opponent can attack again

This card is very situational tho, would you really run it?

[crude pelican]

first part sure why not but the fact that the opponent can attack again is a huge drawback especially if he has something like quasar

[long spruce]

What do you suggest instead?

(I was also unsure about that part lmao

If it's right the monster is immediately banished face down...?

[crude pelican]

leave the field gets banished if your opponent's guess is right maybe give him a +1 card advantage?

[long spruce]

NO

no-one would play it

If you use that card you're already in a bad spot

Giving your opponent more advantage would be a death sentence

[crude pelican]

just give him nothing simple as that

if his guess right he can attack.

[long spruce]

.

So yes, they can just attack you

[crude pelican]

yup now the effect is very reasonable

[long spruce]

Counting the fact that you may be able to activate some effects in the meantime the card resolves, it's actually a nice comeback card

Maybe make some cards that have effects when flipped

Preferably different levels

[crude pelican]

isn't that old? and slow?

[long spruce]

i say flipped but i meant like uh

if face down and attacked

[crude pelican]

still that will be irrelevant to the "cyberspace" strategy

[long spruce]

you're right

[swift frost]

you should probably try to restrict your cards to their own deck more, being able to summon any level 4 or lower monster is very problematic

see stuff like [last will] which is banned

[viral tapir]

Last Will

Effect

If a monster on your side of the field was sent to your Graveyard this turn, you can Special Summon 1 monster with an ATK of 1500 points or less from your Deck once during this turn. Then shuffle your Deck.

F/L Status: Forbidden (TCG/OCG)

[crude pelican]

so it will be your opponent special summons a level 4 or lower and i summon a level 4 or lower "cyberspace" monster? like this?

[swift frost]

also as you've been told before you really should put a once per turn clause in there ("you can only use each effect of cyberspace data source once per turn")

[crude pelican]

yes sure

[swift frost]

yes exactly, but you don't need to let the opponent summon a monster if you do that

[crude pelican]

i see this as a mututal advantage so even if he summons a monster i can summon a monster too right?

[swift frost]

the thing is while you get a monster, there are many cards in the game that summon an archetype monster. this card would be weak if it lets the opponent summon anything for the same reason I said before. if you can summon any monster then you have a ton of monsters to choose from

[crude pelican]

most archetypes have swarming ability so it's still mutual advantage right?

[swift frost]

here let me give you an example

let's say you summon a cyberspace monster and your opponent summons [barrier statue of the stormwinds] since they can summon any level 4 or lower monster

[viral tapir]

Barrier Statue of the Stormwinds

Level: 4
[ Winged Beast / Effect ]

ATK 1000 / DEF 1000

Effect

Neither player can Special Summon monsters, except WIND monsters.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG)

[crude pelican]

so i'm the one who gets the upper hand in this scenario

right this can create a major problem

[quick turret]

(this card is always treated as a "Change"  card)
Quick Play Spell

If you control a "Masked Hero" monster and at least 2 "Elemental Hero" monsters of the same attribute in your GY, apply the following effects, based on the attribute(s) of "Masked Hero" monsters you control.
•Fire: Monsters you control gain 1000 attack, until the end of your opponents turn.
•Water: Banish all Spell/Traps your opponent controls, also all monsters your opponents control lose 1500 attack.
•Wind: Return a card on the field to the hand, and if you do, you may Special Summon 1 "Hero" monster from your hand.
•Earth: Destroy all monsters your opponents control, then you can special summon 1 "Hero" monster from your deck.
•Light: Banish up to 5 cards in your opponents GY, then return up to 5 of your banished cards to the GY.
•Dark: Send 1 random card in your opponents hand to the GY, then draw 1 card.
You can only activate "Masked Elemental Burst!" once per Duel.```

this one is mostly designed for flavor, tried to mirror the actual effects of the Masked Heros but powered up

[crude pelican]

add more PSCT
but overall that's a decent card

[forest vortex]

No

[crude pelican]

why

there's a HOPT right

[forest vortex]

You steal their draw ff sake
It doesn't matter if it has a Hopt since you only activate 1 anyway

[crude pelican]

how about he continues his draw phase like usual and i draw 1 card

oh wait that's jar of greed's effect

[quick turret]

dude, why do all of your cards have awkward punctuation issues

& capitalization

[crude pelican]

yugioh keywords: Shuffle, Return, Send, Card, Monster ...etc

[lament bronze]

that's not true at all.

[crude pelican]

most tcg cards have keywords capitilization

[lament bronze]

Monster and Card are only capitalized when referring to a Card Type

e.g Fusion Monster. Pendulum Monster Card.

the rest are never capitalized unless its the first word at the start of an effect.

[thick charm]

yeah whether words are captialized or not isn't consistent

sometimes it is

sometimes it ain't

https://www.ygopro.co/Forum.aspx?g=Posts&t=16549
I think this should have captialization things

[lament bronze]

Ancient Gear Cronus 
[Level 10/Earth/Machine/Fusion/Effect]
"Ancient Gear Golem" + 2 "Ancient Gear" monsters. 
Must be Fusion Summoned with the above Fusion Materials. Your opponent cannot activate cards or effects during the Battle Phase. At the start of the Battle Phase: You can Special Summon as many "Ancient Gear Titan Tokens" (Machine/Earth/Level 8/ATK 3000/DEF 3000) as possible, but destroy them at the end of the Battle Phase. These Tokens cannot attack directly. You can only use this effect of "Ancient Gear Cronus" once per turn. 
ATK 4000 / DEF 4000 

[quick turret]

none of those are keywords

[lament bronze]

who wants ungabunga ?

[quick turret]

please cross refrence cards when you're making customs for this stuff

Yugioh has like

[thick charm]

crossreferencing is very good

[quick turret]

2 keywords

[thick charm]

copypasting from official cards is ethical cause otherwise you get things that don't quite make sense

[quick turret]

and you somehow managed to list none of them

honestly saying the game even has keywords, as in like, the MTG sense is a bit of a misnomer

cause its really just Spell Counters that are well defined as a mechanic for a specific deck that could be considered a keyword

stuff like Gemini/Toon/Syncho/Effect/etc are just classifications

Tuner I guess is something that could be considered a keyword

[lament bronze]

Technically those are just a sub-effect type and they are usually referred to as abilities. In case of Union, Spirit, Toon, and Gemini.
Tuner is not an ability sincs its not sub-effect type. because non-effect monsters can have it.

it's a monster card type.

to be a Keyword you need to be shortening an explanatory sentence.

tuner never had one. they are just required as just that.

Flip: is the only real keyword i would say.

but that's only a tcg thing.

[forest vortex]

The Token Spam seems a bit much considering you can still link them

[lament bronze]

only going 2nd.

like its Main Phase 2 at that point.

[crude pelican]

Guide is this card busted

[lament bronze]

with no hopt ? maybe

idk what the cards it adds back do.

[crude pelican]

you must never know

they're very poor in design

like it's Tier -1

[lament bronze]

Honestly instead of just randomly posting these. Why don't you group post them as an imgur Link.

[nimble iron]

🙏

[forest vortex]

Is Auroradon not a good Option for it?

[lament bronze]

would save from the spam going on.

[quick turret]

yes please

[crude pelican]

i don't think anyone would ever consider reading all of them

[quick turret]

getting kinda tired of the constant spam of cards and refusing to take meaningful advice to be frank

[lament bronze]

so you spam us with this shit ? sounds like a dick move.
if ppl want to read em they will, if they don't then they don't. stop forcing em to.

[crude pelican]

im not forcing them
in fact im actually helping keeping the channel alive

[nimble iron]

Can We Destroy the tokens at the end of battle phase instead?

[forest vortex]

You mean the Tokens?

[nimble iron]

Yeah

You know what would be funny?

[crude pelican]

you know what im done

[nimble iron]

If you banished them instead

[nimble iron]

Cool no one cares

[lament bronze]

the idea is that if you didn't manage to otk, you still got something u can use to summon other stuff.

[nimble iron]

👍

[nimble iron]

Then give it a xenolock, cause for sure it's going to get abused

[lament bronze]

i mean it can't be used to set up a go first bored, the monster doesn't have any protection, and you have to enter the battle phase.

[crude pelican]

fuck you and this entire server 🖕 🖕🖕🖕

[quick turret]

I'd rather have this channel be less active but with higher quality customs than become gen yugioh 2

tbh

[nimble iron]

Is this eligible for a report?

[forest vortex]

I guess?

[nimble iron]

Well, I'm not bothered

Time to cook some other cards

[lament bronze]

who's runing 3 AG including golem, summoning this, and getting the effect on just to abuse it. (if you even call MP2 effects on a hard to summon fusion abuse.)
its really fine as is.

[lament bronze]

so you were always a dick i'm guessing.

[scarlet onyx]

Bonjour

What’s goin on here

[lament bronze]

guy got mad bc we told him to use Imgur when posting archtypes.

mega mald

this is new level of being spoiled

[forest vortex]

Well that and his refusal to even take advice from like 5 Different People that wanted to help him

[scarlet onyx]

Man that’s also just dreadful PSCT

“Select up to 2 cards and return them to your hand” from wheeeeeeeeere

[lament bronze]

i only ever saw him as a spammer tbh.

[cinder oar]

to be fair, there was an attempt

it's not the worst attempt i've ever seen

but yeah

pretty sure i told this guy to take his cards back to the drawing board and read resources las tnight

seems he didn't

so meh

[forest vortex]

I guess thats about it

[quick turret]

tbh nothing of value was lost

[forest vortex]

[quick turret]

anywayyyy back to thinking of ideas for hero customs

[nimble iron]

Also look at this
Btw this is balanced because it has a hopt

[forest vortex]

Thats not even his worst Card in terms of powercreep

[lament bronze]

i love me Yata on crack

[cinder oar]

o.o

[lament bronze]

Yata lock trap but i draw instead

[nimble iron]

Oh no show

[forest vortex]

He had a Card that banishes 3 Cards from the top of your Deck to Ripp your Opponent 3 Cards out of his Hand
All ogmf his Cards have banishing and GY Effects so it's essentialy a plus 3

[cinder oar]

on top of everything else wrong with that card, it's ddo player management issues on steroids

[forest vortex]

No hopt

[scarlet onyx]

They’ve left, you can go back to discussing customs instead of shitting on them now

[cinder oar]

i'd at least hold that one up as an example of what not to do

[forest vortex]

Like those Posters at the Mall

[cinder oar]

don't create cards that can cause player management problems

[thick charm]

There realistically is no guideline for custom card creation that isn’t “don’t be a dick”

[cinder oar]

and with that, back to our regularly scheduled programming

[forest vortex]

Thats more like a Guideline for Life in general

[thick charm]

yes and people still somehow break it

[lament bronze]

you know what ? i'll just change the tokens being destroyed to the end if battle phase like 1gnis said, end then just give em a quick fusion spell i guess.

[cinder oar]

which card is this?

[long spruce]

Altair left?

[nimble iron]

Ok how much would a card be played if it can change it's name in the hand at will?

[lament bronze]

this@cinder oar

[cinder oar]

yes, altair left

[long spruce]

But...

No...

[lament bronze]

it was during the end phase.

[long spruce]

I'll miss his cards ; - ;

[nimble iron]

Should have showed up earlier

[forest vortex]

I know you had fun looking at those but the Majority didn't

[lament bronze]

finally my cards won't get lost in chat

[long spruce]

Is he banned or just left...?

[forest vortex]

Left I think

[lament bronze]

no one said anything bad to him.

it was just "plz use imgur" and he was like "no one is gonna read my cards that way".

[forest vortex]

I guess we kind of piled on to him

[cinder oar]

should be "These Tokens" instead of "These Token", and you only need one instance of "You can only use this effect of "Ancient Gear Cronus" once per turn." in the text

[nimble iron]

Also do the funny and banish the tokens at the end of battle

🙏

[forest vortex]

That just destroys them

[long spruce]

Where can I properly learn how to write card effects?

[cinder oar]

resources in the pins are a start

especially the psct articles

[nimble iron]

Yeah, but it's funny

[lament bronze]

idk why it had 2 hopts

[cinder oar]

the ones i consider the most relevant for custom writing are 3, 4, and 7

[long spruce]

Oki

[cinder oar]

note that they are a bit older so some finer details might have changed, but the general structure still applies

[lament bronze]

that's not a thing

[long spruce]

Mostly is about semicolons

[cinder oar]

psct3 covers activated effect structure

[nimble iron]

Also when in doubt, try looking for other cards with similar wording

[cinder oar]

so that's where you'd read up on that

[long spruce]

Yes yes, that's what I do

But would be better to actually learn yaknow

[cinder oar]

referencing existing cards is another good idea, yes

especially to keep track of more recent trends in writing

for example, the inclusion of (Quick Effect) in monster text only happened a few years ago

[lament bronze]

i have been doing this for ages but i still look up cards.

you basically have to since the tcg keeps updating it.

[long spruce]

Make keywords like magic smth

[cinder oar]

additionally, i'm gonna plug the sub's custom card guidelines page

https://www.reddit.com/r/yugioh/wiki/custom_card_guidelines

[nimble iron]

On either players' turn:

[cinder oar]

section 1 has some resources

[lament bronze]

the most recent one was "specifically lists" to "mentiones"

[pure eagle]

No

It’s far too late for keywords to be a solution

[long spruce]

would indeed be a mess

maybe with Sevens they could have done something

how do i fix this card's punctuation and why

(yes i'm reading the pinned stuff, just need examples from my cards)

[viscid nexus]

What's the correct psct for this effect?:
If a “Halig” card is sent to your GY while this card is in your GY: You can target 1 “Halig” card in your GY; Special Summon this card, and if you do, add that target to your hand.

"is sent to your GY while this card is in your GY" sounds a little dumb

[cinder oar]

you definitely get rid of the semicolon after "Attack Position"

[long spruce]

that means that the words after are part of a new effect?

[nimble iron]

No

Effects are all one unless there's a new colon/semicolon

[cinder oar]

awkward as it might sound to you, it looks fine psct-wise to me

only thing i'd change has nothing to do with what you're asking about

You can target 1 “Halig” card in your GY;
if this is a "Halig" card, you should change it to target 1 other "Halig" card instead

[viscid nexus]

yeah yeah that's part of it, I just wanted to simplify for the question's sake

[long spruce]

just that?

[nimble iron]

Also remove the you can, make it a requirement

[pure eagle]

Trench Opossum
Level 4 Earth Beast
200/1500
Requirement: If you control “Beast Battlefield Barrier” change this card to defense position.
Effect: Special summon 1 “Barrier Armadillo” from your GY.

[forest vortex]

It's not much but I think it could be a ok option for Goukis to have

Level 5/EARTH/Warrior/Effect/2500 ATK/0 DEF
If a "Gouki" monster is destroyed by Battle: You can Special Summon this card from your Hand, then give the monster that destroyed the "Gouki" monster back to the Hand. If this card is sent from the field to the GY: You can add 1 "Gouki" card from your Deck to your hand, except "Gouki Biel Throw". You can only use each effect of "Gouki Biel Throw" once per turn.```

[cinder oar]

if that's for yag's card, there's no need to do that unless they want it to be a mandatory effect

[nimble iron]

The effect of adding the target is mandatory

[cinder oar]

i don't think the last effect should be activated; those kinds of effects typically aren't

also, there's potentially a bit of weirdness regarding which player can't summon monsters of the declared type, depending on how you want it to play out

regardless of that, you don't need "Summon or Special Summon", as a special summon is covered under summoning

that said, so are normal summoning and flip summoning

which might make this a bit powerful

[long spruce]

this card is supposed to not have any effect if you summon it on your board

only do something if special summoned under it's effect

and the last part is to prevent just having it linked out immedeately

[cinder oar]

sure, but my point is that it should be written as a non-activated effect instead

so you'd get rid of the colon

[cinder oar]

as for this, i'm not sure what you mean

the effect they posted is an optional effect

[long spruce]

"If your opponent Special Summoned 3 or more monsters of the same Type this turn (Quick Effect): You can declare 1 Type of monster; Special Summon this card from your hand to your opponent's side of the field in Attack Position. Your opponent cannot Summon monsters with the declared Type. When Summoned this way: This card cannot be Tributed, or used as material for a Fusion, Xyz or Link Summon until the end of the turn."

like this?

[cinder oar]

so here's what i mean when i said there was potential weirdness

Your opponent cannot Summon monsters with the declared Type.

[long spruce]

alright

[cinder oar]

if it's summoned to your opponent's field, am i reading this from the perspective of the player who resolved the effect, or the player who currently controls the monster?

[long spruce]

this card's original owner's opponent

[cinder oar]

then i'd rewrite that a bit

i'd also give it some sort of way to terminate

[boreal tendon]

@dire leaf feedback pls

[long spruce]

what does that mean?

[nimble iron]

I guess you'll have to add (if any) as well

[cinder oar]

Special Summon this card from your hand to your opponent's side of the field in Attack Position, and if you do, your opponent cannot Summon monsters with the declared Type as long as they control this monster.
or something like that, you can make it face-up, last until the end of the turn, whatever, but it shouldn't be able to be read as though it's permanent

[long spruce]

ah i see

lemme try

[cinder oar]

i really don't know what you're getting at

[long spruce]

"If your opponent Special Summoned 3 or more monsters of the same Type this turn (Quick Effect): You can declare 1 Type of monster; Special Summon this card from your hand to your opponent's side of the field in Attack Position, and if you do, your opponent cannot Summon monsters with the declared Type as long as they control this monster. When Summoned this way: This card cannot be Tributed, or used as material for a Fusion, Xyz or Link Summon until the end of the turn."

is this card good/bad/too good?

[cinder oar]

if we're talking balance, i lean toward it being potentially too powerful

but i've already referenced that

[long spruce]

ok so should it lose it's effect entirely at the end of the turn?

or is it a core problem?

[lament bronze]

The Icejade Swordsoul 
[Equip Spell]
Equip only to an "Icejade" or "Swordsoul" monster you control. The equipped monster gains 1000 ATK/DEF. You can only use each of the following  effects of "The Icejade Swordsoul " once per turn. You can banish both this card, and the equipped monster; Special Summon 1  "Icejade" or "Swordsoul" Synchro Monster from your Extra Deck, with same Type and Attribute as the banished monster. (This is treated as a Synchro Summon.) If this card is banished: You can equip this card to 1 "Icejade" or "Swordsoul" Synchro Monster you control. 

[cinder oar]

i lean conservative toward potentially powerful effects like this; other people may think it's fine

You can only use each of the following effect effects "The Icejade Swordsoul " once per turn.
replace 'effects' with 'of'

should read 'effects of', i think this is just a simple typo more than anything

looks fine otherwise

[boreal tendon]

Wait

[long spruce]

whatabout this?

[boreal tendon]

Altair got banned?

[long spruce]

left

[boreal tendon]

Ah

[quick turret]

left in a fit of rage

[long spruce]

i'll miss him

at the very least there was movement here

[quick turret]

although they 100% are getting muted if they come back lol

mod team is pretty relaxed most of the time but jumping to insults and being generally antagonistic to other users(that, and ignoring feedback) crosses a line

[boreal tendon]

Also damn, got 8th in the contest

[viscid nexus]

Don't worry I can bring the drama

Anyway, I feel like slapping two special summon effects on a trap is ridiculous. The in archetype monsters (as well as synchros) wouldn't be strong but I wonder if the card itself as it is, even if summoning big dummies - is ridiculous

Mainly looking at the HOPT restriction

Do I switch for "You can only use 1 effect of "..." per turn and only once that turn"?

[long spruce]

hello Altair

glad to see you back

[viscid nexus]

Effect for easy reading:
Tribute 1 "Halig" monster; Special Summon 1 "Halig" Synchro Monster of a higher Level from your Extra Deck, then if this card was activated in response to an opponent's card or effect activation, you can negate the activation (This is treated as a Synchro Summon.) If a "Halig" Synchro Monster you control leaves the field because of an opponent's card: You can banish this card from your GY, then target 1 other "Halig" monster in your GY; Special Summon it.

[long spruce]

jokes aside

[viscid nexus]

what type of restriction, 1 effect per turn, or hopt?

And yeah I know y'all can barely tell without having seen the rest of the cards

[boreal tendon]

1 effect i'd say

[fathom pivot]

Fusion/Level 7/Thunder/Effect/DARK
ATK/2800 DEF/2600
2 “Thunder Dragon” monsters with different names
Must be either Fusion Summoned, or Special Summoned by banishing the required materials from the Graveyard.
While this card is on the field, your opponent cannot banish cards and if they activate the effect of a banished card, negate it.
Once per turn: During either player’s Main Phase (Quick Effect): Shuffle 1 of your banished Thunder monsters back to the Deck, then target a monster your opponent controls, they lose half their ATK and DEF and their effects are negated. ```

[long spruce]

So it's just a free summon with GY materials and blocks your opponent Banish zone interactions... And immediately gets it's materials back into play

Not sure how it sounds in my head so I'll refrain from commenting

[thunder dragon colossus]

[viral tapir]

Thunder Dragon Colossus

Level: 8
[ Thunder / Fusion / Effect ]

ATK 2600 / DEF 2400

Effect

"Thunder Dragon" + 1 Thunder monster
Must be either Fusion Summoned, or Special Summoned during the turn a Thunder monster's effect was activated in the hand, by Tributing 1 Thunder Effect non-Fusion Monster (in which case you do not use "Polymerization"). Cards cannot be added from the Main Deck to your opponent's hand except by drawing them. If this card would be destroyed by battle or card effect, you can banish 1 Thunder monster from your GY instead.

F/L Status: Forbidden (TCG), Limited (OCG)

[fathom pivot]

oh fuck forgor to change the 2 to 1 in the quick effect
i was doing a completly different method then changed my mind

actually maybe i should put another restriction

[long spruce]

maybe

[fathom pivot]

something like not being able to use monsters with the same name as the materials?

[long spruce]

Btw, I suppose you have some "Thunder dragon" custom cards

[fathom pivot]

i think i have one other

[long spruce]

Ok good because otherwise I don't think this guy can be summoned

[fathom pivot]

here it is

[long spruce]

I actually forgot, do the GY materials need to make LVL 7 in total?

[fathom pivot]

no just thunder dragons

[long spruce]

Or do they just have to be "Thunder Dragon"?

Ok

[fathom pivot]

it would be difficult to summon otherwise

[long spruce]

I'm too tired to think about suggestions otherwise

[long spruce]

Indeed, unless you had a deck with all LVL 4 or so

(and the summon being LVL 8

[fathom pivot]

gonna ponder a bit then

[long spruce]

Do not i was gonna do that in my archetype

Still in high water

But I wanted to make it so it would had access so synchros, Xyz and fusions with ease

Links are already super easy so

...and Rituals are... Uhm...

Ya need a focused deck around those to work

[fathom pivot]

or it would end up like fire fist

[long spruce]

[Fire Fist]

[viral tapir]

Brotherhood of the Fire Fist - Spirit

ATK 500 / DEF 200

When this card is Normal Summoned: You can target 1 Level 3 FIRE monster with 200 or less DEF in your GY; Special Summon that target in Defense Position, and if you do, monsters you control cannot attack for the rest of this turn, except Beast-Warrior monsters. You can only use this effect of "Brotherhood of the Fire Fist - Spirit" once per turn.

Probably ya meant another card?

Either way, too late for this lmao

I'm tiiiired

Essence of the Forbidden One

When this card is Special Summoned: you can Target 1 "Forbidden One" monster in the GY; Shuffle the targeted monster into the Main Deck, and if you do, add 1 card that mentions a "Forbidden One" monster from your Deck to your hand. This card gains ATK equal to the combined ATK and DEF of "Forbidden One" monsters in the GY.

1. do i need to adjust the psct? idk if lists works as a term for an archetype or if its just for listing card names.
2. would this be broken as an exodia engine to turn any of the limbs into a trap that bounces every turn? if you can just mill an exodia part then make a link 2 it doesnt take the NS even, but im not sure its going to be too big of a deal if exodia has that aspect of splashability.

honestly, this would solve one of exodia's BIGGEST problems,
it turns 4/5 pieces into a stratos effectively

[cinder oar]

having the effect reference mentioning part of a name is fine; see stuff like fusion destiny

as the first effect is written as mandatory, it should use if instead of when

the continuous effect should be capitalized like a proper sentence

also, the word after the semicolon shouldn't be capitalized

[coarse nest]

imma do when so it can miss timing, whenever that may come up

and add a you can

I understand being skeptical, but they didn’t know about being able to use link monsters as one material, and acted like they didn’t believe me.

[lament bronze]

no column effect ?

[sudden palm]

meh

it's not the first

and i'd rather they have an extender and a way to recycle backrow than another column eff

[lament bronze]

this card is just cope tbh. a feel special summon that's also draw one... is just wew

and both effects are quick for some reason.

[sudden palm]

ss is quick because dog tag isn't proactive enough, shuffle is quick so you can get more value off it in conjunction with chaser

[lament bronze]

the "cost" of the first effect triggers the 2nd one too. so neither have a real cost.

[quiet spindle]

This is nice but I wouldn't play it cuz of the 2nd effect

Seems kinda not enough to me dunno, don't get me wrong magikey would kill to get a card like this, but showing from hand, then shuffling it, is kinda meh
(Nvm I just realized you could discard it lmao)

All "Stormrider" monsters on the field gain 300 ATK.

Red Magma
Field Spell
All Monster's with Red Eye's in its name get 400 Attack & Defense Points
You can normal summon a level 6 or higher red eyes without Tribute Summoning it but it cannot attack during this turn

[forest vortex]

Tbh I think it even needs to do a little bit more

[hidden abyss]

How about Once per turn discard 1 Card and pay 200 Life points and search a Red Eyes Spell, Trap or Monster card

[forest vortex]

That sounds really good but I think you can leave the Lp cost out and make a restriction so that you need to discard a Red Eyes Card instead of anny.

[hidden abyss]

Alr guest that makes sense

Supremacy Pendulumgraph
[Continuous Spell]
When this card is activated: You can place 1 "Supreme King Gate Zero" and 1 "Supreme King Gate Infinity" from your Deck in your Pendulum Zones, also you cannot Pendulum Summon monsters for the rest of this turn, except DARK monsters. Once per turn, if you have 4 monsters on your field and/or GY (1 each with "Pendulum Dragon", "Xyz Dragon", "Synchro Dragon", and "Fusion Dragon" in their names): You can add 1 "Astrograph Sorcerer" or "Chronograph Sorcerer" from your Deck to your hand, then destroy 1 card you control. You can only activate 1 "Supremacy Pendulumgraph" per turn.

Cipher Space
Field Spell
Discard 1 Galaxy, Cipher or Photon Monster card to the graveyard, 2 of your Cipher Monster's becomes level 8 until end of turn you can only use this effect once per turn
When you Xyz Summoned a Cipher Dragon Deal 500 Points of Damage and you gain 100 Life Points per each Cipher Monster card's in your graveyard, you can only use this effect once per turn
Once per turn: you can Xyz summoned using a Rank 8 Cipher Xyz Monster but it cannot use its effect during this turn and it get 100 Attack Points equal to its rank

[quick turret]

the psct here needs a LOT of work

You can only activate the following effects of "Cipher Space" once per turn.
Discard 1 "Galaxy" or "Photon" Monster; then target up to 2 "Cipher" monsters you control, their level(s) become 8. 
When you XYZ Summon a "Cipher" Dragon XYZ monster: inflict 500 damage to your opponent and you gain 100 lp for every "Cipher" monster in your GY. You can only use this effect once per turn.
Once per turn, you can use a Rank 8 "Cipher" XYZ monster you control as material to XYZ summon, treating it ranks as if it were a level.```

Balance wise this is kinda lame

the effects have very litte synergy with what Galaxy wants to do and are underpowered to boot

I feel like it should lean more towards the "take control of opponents stuff and make then Galaxy Eyes cards for value" stick that Arc V did

[forest vortex]

You mean smth like Vampires so you can treat your Opponents Monsters as Level 8 for a XYZ Summon?

[quick turret]

honestly that last effect is way too vague so I went with a [Xiangke Magician] esche effect

[viral tapir]

Xiangke Magician

Level: 7 | Pendulum Scale: 3
[ Spellcaster / Pendulum / Effect ]

ATK 2500 / DEF 500

Pendulum Effect

Once per turn: You can target 1 face-up Xyz Monster you control; this turn, you can use it as an Xyz Material for an Xyz Summon using its Rank as if it were a Level (even if this card leaves the field).

Effect

Once per turn, during either player's turn: You can target 1 LIGHT monster on the field; that face-up monster has its effects negated until the end of this turn.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG)

[quick turret]

but you might have intended it another way?

also the random attack gain and burn are at values way too low to be relavent which is another issues

"oh wow my xyz monsters gets a wopping 800 extra attack that's going to be the difference between me winning or losing "

[storm pecan]

the archetype needs a card which will actually gain them advantage

the psct btw is still very incorrect

in the first effect, you need all the things that happen during activation, cost and targeting, to be enclosed by the first punctuation mark, which needs to be a semicolon not a colon

and since the card has 2 hard opt effects the third effect needs to be moved to the top and there needs to be a "you can only use the following effects of "" once per turn"

[quiet spindle]

Most of the times tcg wants to NOT use words like death so I dunno for the names

But besides that interesting Idea

[forest vortex]

I am guessing Shinigami is not fine too?

[nimble iron]

Shinigami isn't an English word

So it probably works alright

[wind granite]

The common substitution the localization uses is Des

Also uses Archfiend instead of Demon

[forest vortex]

Archfiend would make them part of the Archetype though(even if they can't do shit with these). Fiend is probably good enough.

[forest vortex]

Ok so I made a addition to the Weapons and added 4 more Cards to the pile
https://imgur.com/a/fvmnIv7

[quiet spindle]

Yeah just fiend sounds strange, you can probably use the word demon by itself but in a different language

[forest vortex]

How about Iblis?

[pallid spindle]

Just make an angiogram for archfiend :)

[atomic dew]

a card hasn't been printed that uses "Des" in its name as an entire word since Gimmick Puppet Des Troy, in 2014.

[forest vortex]

What's a Aniogram?

[atomic dew]

and that instance is more wordplay than anything else, so the second most recent is Des Mosquito, in 2008.

[forest vortex]

Do any of the "Des" monsters have anything in common except mostly being based around Australia?
Cause I have a stupid Idea for them

[forest vortex]

This is the Stupid Idea

I could have made them just Beast related but Des Mosquito is a thing and I want it to be used just for the Name

It was originaly 1 Monster but then I thought about splitting it up to give it more Monsters in general

I think it could get a Link 2 with Arrows pointing down left/right to pedulum summon both in the Zones

[pure eagle]

That first card does literally nothing

And the latter is basically the yugioh equivalent of gibberish

[livid mirage]

oh yeah

sorry i forgor to fix it

[quick turret]

[livid mirage]

fixed a bit

Ima make kaid/bread serpent rn

[pure eagle]

Why is it a ritual spell

[livid mirage]

cuz its needed to summon dread serpent

Kaido/Dread serpent

[red dust]

why does it say bread serpent on the ritual spell

[livid mirage]

missspell

[red dust]

also why does dread serpent have "can't be normal summoned" if it's a ritual monster

[quick turret]

needs a lil more work, I heavily recommend cross referencing existing cards.

[livid mirage]

WELL OGRAINALY IT WAS POSTA BE EFFECT

BUT

[quick turret]

rituals can't be normal summoned by default so that first line is redundant

[livid mirage]

void sea

yall are prolly gonna hate the depths field spell

[boreal tendon]

2002 reminder text when the rulebook wasn't a thing so they had to print "cannot be normal summoned/set" on every single ritual monster

Love to see it

[livid mirage]

👍

[boreal tendon]

But yea uhhh

Check the pins

[livid mirage]

Ill fix some time

[quick turret]

my guy

[livid mirage]

i did

[boreal tendon]

Your cards literally do not function

[livid mirage]

OMFG

[quick turret]

you clearly didn't

[livid mirage]

I FORGOT TO FUCKING CHANGE TEXT

mB

[quick turret]

please read the pins in depth & cross reference existing cards

[boreal tendon]

Like

There's a clear difference between what you think your cards do vs what they're actually doing

[livid mirage]

fixed

[quick turret]

........

[pure eagle]

Why 550

[livid mirage]

idfk

prolly gonna debuff

[boreal tendon]

My guy

[quick turret]

550 is literally nothing

[boreal tendon]

I'm not even going to tell you to cross reference your cards

[quick turret]

and this is the only thing this field does

[boreal tendon]

But your grammar is lacking

[livid mirage]

?

[fluid obsidian]

First custom.

[livid mirage]

Nice 👍

[fluid obsidian]

Thank you

Please ignore the typo

[livid mirage]

if it was real it was gonna be really good for Cyper dragon decks

[quick turret]

nah this card looks too winmore

it would be a 1 of tech at best and I doubt it would do much in most decks

wait it doesn't even add to hand

[boreal tendon]

Unsearchable btw

[quick turret]

it ____'s them into deck?(shuffle, I presume?)

[boreal tendon]

Yea, from what i got it it's meant to shuffle them back in

[quick turret]

"add" is the wrong psct here

psure

[pure eagle]

Ye

[boreal tendon]

Yea

[pure eagle]

It’s usually shuffle or return

Or place if you choose the order

[cinder oar]

gonna have to tell both blackestnight and hano here to please go read the resources in the pins and do some learning, as the cards from both of you need fundamental reworks

[pure eagle]

Sun Hibearnation
Level 5 Light Beast
2200/1000
If this card is Banished or used as Fusion material for a Fusion Summon: Draw 2 cards, then banish 1 “Hibearnation” Spell/Trap from your hand and GY, if you cannot, banish your hand. During your 2nd Standbye Phase after this card was banished: Return this card to the GY. You can only use each effect of “Sun Hibearnation” once per turn.

The allure effect banishes spells/traps because all the monsters do stuff when banished

[livid mirage]

enforcer

(its posta say effect too but forgot and ima go get my friends to make spell cards and other things while i make the monsters)

[boreal tendon]

"Parry"

"Faint"

What do those mean?

[quick turret]

please for the love of god

[pure eagle]

Use real cards for reference

[boreal tendon]

Why doesn't it have an attribute?

[quick turret]

I'm already tired of this

[boreal tendon]

What is a depths card?

[livid mirage]

In battle you can parry the attack of your enemy faint you faint you attack meaning you make them think your gonna hit them but you dont

[boreal tendon]

Question

[livid mirage]

new archetype me and my friends and are making rn

[boreal tendon]

How much experience do you have with the game?

[thick charm]

Ok, the issue is that in Yugioh, none of those words mean anything

[livid mirage]

deepwoken or yugioh

[thick charm]

Yugioh

[boreal tendon]

What is a deepwoken i meant yugioh

[livid mirage]

Ive watched the anime and started playing like a month ago

[quick turret]

that explains way too much

please dude

[livid mirage]

roblox prema death game i enjoy way to much

[quick turret]

spend like a few hours or so AT LEAST reading the docs in the pins(specifically the psct ones)

your customs are too nonsensical as is

!psct1

[livid mirage]

man i have shit to do tmr its already late plus theese are early draft's of the cards

[quick turret]

I'd appreciate actual effort being put into "early drafts" of customs

[boreal tendon]

Oh yea right

Party boat doesn't work on forums

Mb

[quick turret]

you've posted like 5 customs in the span of an hour

[livid mirage]

theese cards ive made i spent 3 hours thinking of before making them

[gloomy heart]

Then please spend some time reading the early pins so you can learn to format effects in a way that are legible

This is strict due to the sheer volume of almost unreadable cards we'd get here otherwise

[livid mirage]

ill do it tmr when i have more time 👍

[gloomy heart]

Yea nws, just as long as you take some time to learn to format them, you can then post like 1-2 cards here to ask if there are still issues with the text, fix things up etc.

[livid mirage]

heres a card i made for fun before the deepwoken cards cuz i was using mekk knights

Dont mind a modern card thingy

[gloomy heart]

I don't think you read the pinned PSCT documents before posting that tbh

[boreal tendon]

I mean

He did say he made this before the other stuff

[gloomy heart]

I'll be more direct then: read the PSCT documents before posting more stuff

[quick turret]

this one is somehow more legible than the previous examples

[gloomy heart]

Guessing the Mekk-Knight text was copy pasted

[livid mirage]

mekk-knight moon eclipse was made by thinking of the other mekk-knights cuz i love the mekk-knights

the summoning was a cnp

the real effect was my idea for effect

[livid mirage]

got bored so made 2 normal monsters

[lyric wraith]

Please check your spelling before posting cards here

[forest vortex]

Is Altair Back?

[long spruce]

Berast is my favourite Type

[forest vortex]

Sharko
Level 4/WATER/Fish/Effect
0 ATK/0 DEF
You can only use each effect of "Sharko" once per turn. If you control a Fish WATER monster: You can Special Summon this card (from your Hand). If this card is Normal Summoned: You can Special Summon 1 Fish WATER monster from your Hand or Deck but half its ATK and negate its effects. If this card is used for the Xyz Summon of a WATER monster, it can be treated as a Level 3 or 5 monster.```

[lethal pecan]

why is this a 2k attack level 4 with no downside

also "shark" isn't an archetype in the tcg/ocg bc of weird translation issues iirc

[forest vortex]

Better?

[atomic dew]

a 2k attack level 4 with no downsides is not a big deal

[lethal pecan]

it's an arbitrary thing

they just

don't make them have upsides

[atomic dew]

I really just don't see why it matters. a level 4 that is primarily going to be used as xyz material having 2k atk is just not going to impact the outcome of a duel. For instance, Gunkan Suship Shari is a 2k level 4 with no downside that is also primarily used as xyz material.

[lethal pecan]

do I really have to point out the fact

that shari is a literal vanilla monster

there's like 10 2k attack vanilla level 4s

[atomic dew]

so this is fine, but if shari had an effect it would suddenly break the bank? It's such a non issue.

Sharko needs to be arbitrarily worse because it can special summon itself though.

[lethal pecan]

yes?

I literally said it's arbitrary

it's a thing they've kept to for over 15 years

you're the only person to have issue with it

[atomic dew]

I don't have an issue with konami deciding they need to have less than 2k atk. It is silly to think that a few of those special summon spam monsters having 2k atk would change anything, though. So insisting that a custom card needs to fit konami's vision of "tradition" is equally silly.

[forest vortex]

I did change it to 0 ATK/DEF btw

[atomic dew]

I saw, and it is equally as playable as it was before. Like I said, having 2,000 ATK was a non issue.

but "why is this a 2k attack level 4 with no downside" is phrased like a criticism, and like Gooey admitted, that criticism is extremely arbitrary.

[lethal pecan]

"why would I give people advice to make their cards more in relation to how the entire mechanic of ATK/DEF is balanced" idk

by this logic you could just give a bunch of random shit 2k atk under your principle that it wouldn't matter (which isn't even true but regardless)

you're the one annoyed at me for helping give advice

[atomic dew]

I’m not saying that every level 4 needs to have 2k. That being said, most if not all competitive decks are capable of lethal on turn 3. Yugioh has reached the point where ATK points on main deck monsters matter about as much as LP, with the obvious exception of non extra deck strategies. A single combo piece having 2k is really irrelevant. So saying that that single main deck monster shouldn’t have 2k isn’t really helpful advice.

[long spruce]

Probably a better wording for all of this would have been:
"It's not Konami's standard to print 2k atk LVL 4 effect monsters with no downsides, consider that"

[fluid obsidian]

I did.

[long spruce]

I think the right wording would be
"Pay 500 life points; return all Machine-Type monsters from your GY to your Deck."

[fluid obsidian]

Thank you

[sudden palm]

Rank 4 DARK Machine/Xyz/Effect 0/3500

Once per turn (Quick Effect): You can detach 1 material from this card, then target 1 monster your opponent controls; take control of it. If this card has "Number 34: Terror-Byte" as material, it gains this effect.
● Once per turn: You can detach 2 materials from this card; look at your opponent's Extra Deck and Special Summon 1 monster from it to their field, but its effects are negated until the end of this turn.```

[forest vortex]

The Controled Monster should probably have its Effects Negated atleast

[long spruce]

Numer C34: Apocalypse-Byte

normally C variants add or change one word to the base name

Unending Terror-Byte

[boreal tendon]

Gigantic-Byte

(Ignore that gigabytes are smaller than terabytes)

[forest vortex]

Under-Byte

[cinder oar]

the colon would be a semicolon

also 'life points' is shortened to LP in card text

[boreal tendon]

Also, the -Type thing was dropped a while ago

So it would just be "all Machine monsters"

[long spruce]

i should read newer card effects when comparing stuff

too much old school wording

[forest vortex]

Yeah they shortned a lot of stuff over the Years

[pure eagle]

it's fine
using outdated wording is still leagues better than making a card "written like the anime"

[livid mirage]

made another card normal monster

[quick turret]

level 6 vanilla with stats less than typical for a level 4?

[long spruce]

ok, that's definetely a normal monster... may i ask why?

[quick turret]

🤨

[forest vortex]

The most Anime Monster I have seen so far

[long spruce]

let him cook

that's gonna be a garnet ya see

[quick turret]

being a tuner isn't a relavent upside here btw

its too cumbersome to bring out

[livid mirage]

omfg

Im so dumb

we mainly make about effect monsters

vanillas can be nice if backed by stuff but like

[livid mirage]

I have alot effects to make

[long spruce]

mostly when you make a card you want it to do something

[livid mirage]

and there mostly to get the 3 main cards of the deck out

the drowned god cards

Which i made

[forest vortex]

If it is smth like Genex it's ok

[long spruce]

may i see them?

[livid mirage]

But they need fixing

[long spruce]

ah i see, need help?

[livid mirage]

i made them last night

[long spruce]

or suship

i love that silly archetype

[forest vortex]

Or World Chalice

[livid mirage]

[forest vortex]

Fuck it we balling

[quick turret]

[long spruce]

[viral tapir]

Pantheism of the Monarchs

[long spruce]

i suppose that "Drowed God" is it's cusom type

[livid mirage]

yunshu'l?

[long spruce]

we don't do that here

[forest vortex]

I have no Idea what these are for

[quick turret]

I can't be bothered to care

[livid mirage]

Yeah since its a custom archetype me and my friends are making

[long spruce]

if you wanna make a drowed god archetype, mention it in the name

ok but custom archetypes do not mean custom types

[livid mirage]

Yunshu'l ill fix rq

[long spruce]

wait, there's way more stuff

[forest vortex]

Divine Beast is a no go Type
Drowned God is not a Abbilty
The Card Effect Text is Wack
Is this Altair?

[long spruce]

nha, opposite of him

just a new player

ok so, as i said

[livid mirage]

I did make a card thats based off of my fav ign archetype

[long spruce]

you even called them Diven-Beast

anyway don't put either of those

[livid mirage]

I couldnt find the screenshot of my fav in game archetype coustom

lemme find it

[long spruce]

not that you CAN'T, just very uncommon to see in custom cards

[livid mirage]

my bad 😦

i made them at like 1 am with zero sleep so i excepted alot of shit to be wrong

[long spruce]

you forgot the summoning requirements too

and i'll not look at the effect yet

[livid mirage]

yeah theres alot to fix

[long spruce]

ok... do you use this?

https://ygopro.org/yugioh-card-maker/

if yes, would be better to save the templates of your cards

for easy changes

i read the effects

why...

[livid mirage]

yes

[long spruce]

there's so much wrong my Arceus...

->

MHHHHHHHHHH

[forest vortex]

They are incredibly bad ngl

[livid mirage]

and i found my custom mekk-knight card

[forest vortex]

[long spruce]

i would ask why is it psychic and not warrior but whatever

[boreal tendon]

All mekks are psychic

[quick turret]

Level 7 Fusion
2500 attack/2000 defense/warrior/Wind

2 "HERO" Fusion Monsters or 4+ "HERO" Monsters
Must first be Fusion Summoned. Gains ATK/DEF equal to the combined original ATK of the materials used for its Fusion Summon, also it can attack all monsters your opponent controls, once each.
Your opponent cannot target this card with card effects, also it cannot be destroyed by your opponent's card effects.```

[forest vortex]

Mekk Knights ain't Warrior

[quick turret]

big dumb beater hero

[boreal tendon]

Except girsu/morning star irrc

[long spruce]

right

[livid mirage]

mekk-knights are psychic

[long spruce]

ok so, effects needs some wording change but

[livid mirage]

If i could use moon eclipse irl or in master duels my friend always has a drowning mirror force on the frield so i would use use his effect to use it for myself

[quick turret]

drowing mirror force

[boreal tendon]

Let casuals be casuals bak

[forest vortex]

Not everyone is a Meta Player

[long spruce]

you do realise that a lot of cards wouldn't work with that right?

[livid mirage]

yeah

[quick turret]

meta /=/ playing good cards lol

I'm not doing this today

[livid mirage]

what wording do i need to fix?

[long spruce]

also, you activate the card during a phase it could not resolve or be activated to begin with

this sounds like ruling funzies

[long spruce]

send the raw text in chat

[long spruce]

don't worry, we are totally competent enough to do it instead

[livid mirage]

kk

If 2 or more cards are in the same column, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand) in that column. You can only Special Summon "Mekk-Knight Moon Eclipse" One per turn. Once per turn, You can Discard one "Mekk-Knight" or "World Legacy" card to gain 1500 attack OR activate one card on you opponents side for yourself

[quick turret]

I reccomend using ``` for templating

like this

[livid mirage]

oh mb

[boreal tendon]

Ok so

[livid mirage]

i realized my your wasnt in the text

[forest vortex]

Oh so no one should play Cards that they like. Got it👍
Anyway

[livid mirage]

and it was you 💀

[boreal tendon]

There's this thing called [bait doll]

[viral tapir]

Bait Doll

Effect

Target 1 Set card in the Spell & Trap Card Zone; reveal that target, force its activation if it is a Trap Card, then negate its effect if the activation timing is incorrect, and if you do, destroy it. (If it is not a Trap Card, return it face-down.) When this card resolves, shuffle it into the Deck instead of sending it to the Graveyard.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG)

[livid mirage]

oh thats a new card

[boreal tendon]

Notice how it has to specify if the targetted card can activate or not

[boreal tendon]

It's actually pretty old, it's not in master duel because it's a headache to make it function in game

[livid mirage]

oh

that card is on the ban list from irl tcg

right?

[boreal tendon]

No it is not

[livid mirage]

what in the fu-

[boreal tendon]

It's actually pretty bad on practice

[livid mirage]

really?

[boreal tendon]

Yes

[quick turret]

its too specific and a ruling nightmare to boot

no sane person is playing it over just

standard spell/trap removal

unless you're specifically playing "judge call turbo.dek"

[boreal tendon]

Today i will play a deck with 2222 cards

[quick turret]

play [Question] in 2023

[viral tapir]

Question

Effect

When activating this card, your opponent cannot check cards in the Graveyard. Your opponent calls the name of the first monster found at the bottom of your Graveyard. If he/she calls it right, the monster is removed from play. If he/she calls it wrong, the monster is Special Summoned to your side of the field.

[fluid obsidian]

Here's the boss monster for the new Archetype I am working on.

[boreal tendon]

Question

Is your archetype designed to support [shining angel]?

[viral tapir]

Shining Angel

Level: 4
[ Fairy / Effect ]

ATK 1400 / DEF 800

Effect

When this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the Graveyard: You can Special Summon 1 LIGHT monster with 1500 or less ATK from your Deck, in face-up Attack Position.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG)

[boreal tendon]

Or [angel of mischief]?

[ Fairy / Effect ]

ATK 2500 / DEF 1500

Effect

If this card is Tribute Summoned, it gains this effect:
●Neither player can activate monster effects.

F/L Status: Unlimited (TCG/OCG)

[boreal tendon]

Or what about the entire cyber angel archetype, even?

[fluid obsidian]

I didn't know any of those existed.

It was not my intention to make cards that support the previously mentioned cards.

[boreal tendon]

I would suggest making your archetype name more specific

"Angel" is an incredibly generic term

[livid mirage]

nice

[long spruce]

try "Resplendent Angel" for the archetype

[fluid obsidian]

Ok

[long spruce]

now, back to Hano

[livid mirage]

?

[forest vortex]

Wait. Isn't Angel censord with Fairy?

[boreal tendon]

Nope

[fluid obsidian]

Updated it with the name suggestion

[boreal tendon]

The effect hasn't changed

[fluid obsidian]

I just noticed that

Ok. Now I updated the effect

[long spruce]

ok so Hano

[forest vortex]

It really has these generic Ritual Monster Effects that you would see on older cards

[long spruce]

i tried to rewrite the last part of the mekkight effect but it's a mess

i have skill issue

[forest vortex]

It feels like DM Era

[long spruce]

either way it's easier and better for you to just banish the backrow card instead of activating it

If 2 or more cards are in the same column, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand) in that column. You can only Special Summon "Mekk-Knight Moon Eclipse" once per turn. Once per turn: you can discard one "Mekk-Knight" or "World Legacy" card; activate one of these effects;
● This monster gains 1500 attack until the end of the turn.
● Banish a card in your opponent's Spell ∞ Trap Zone.

[livid mirage]

ty 👍

[long spruce]

hope i didn't fuck up ;-;

[livid mirage]

Isn't the propper grammar "one of these"

[long spruce]

it is XD

probably left "this" from your card and just misread it afterwards

[long spruce]

Ritual cards need to have "Ritual" after Type and before Effect

[fluid obsidian]

Oh

Ok

[forest vortex]

Fairy/Ritual/Effect

Same goes for Toon, Union, Gemini, etc.

[long spruce]

gemini isn't real

[fluid obsidian]

Anything else that I missed?

[long spruce]

busy rn, in a little

send raw text

also, ya happen to have Divine Light already made?

[fluid obsidian]

No

[long spruce]

sad

[lyric wraith]

@livid mirage the next custom you post better have mostly correct PCST and spelling, you have been warned already

[long spruce]

Dunno what you mean, Drowned Gods seem pretty good

[lyric wraith]

Ah yes the extra deck monsters with no material

[forest vortex]

There is a LOT wrong with those tbh

[livid mirage]

its work in prog rn

[lyric wraith]

Then don’t post it until it’s done

[livid mirage]

alr cya yall in 3 years

cuz we dont have a cannon look for the drowned god fire in deepwoken yet

wait

@fluid obsidian do you have all of the cards for you archetype yet?

[quick turret]

artwork isn't as important as making sure the cards psct is correct

I'd argue text only customs are arguable better because there's a subconscious bias towards whatever is depicted in the artbox

[livid mirage]

again for the drowned god of fire we have no idea what he can do all we know in the lore is if all 3 drowned gods are awakened the world ends

[quick turret]

I don't get what you're saying

[lyric wraith]

At least make them functional, they don’t have to be 100% faithful

[forest vortex]

You doing Anime Cards or what?

[livid mirage]

im making the thing for yunshu'l rn

[livid mirage]

Im more familiar with the anime so this is kinda anime kinda what ik for the tgc

HOW TF DO YOU SPELL ACTIVE

NVM

IM A MORON

hows this

[forest vortex]

Depends on what a "Bell" cards even are?

[livid mirage]

Buff cards

that can only be used on player tokens

WHICH ill make after i finish yunshu'l

[forest vortex]

Tokens have to be described in the card that summons them btw. (Level/Atribute/Type/Atk/Def

[livid mirage]

like that

or put the actual points

[forest vortex]

[Mecha Phantom Beast O-Lion]

[viral tapir]

Mecha Phantom Beast O-Lion

[lyric wraith]

Getting there, but remember you need semi colons and colons to denote activated effects and costs

[quick turret]

!psct3

... oh right bot no work here

[livid mirage]

im a idiot

[quick turret]

https://yugiohblog.konami.com/articles/?p=2947

[livid mirage]

Im almost asked what semi colons and colons are

[quick turret]

reccomend you read this fully Hano

[livid mirage]

i will

lemme just make the cards then ill read it and fix em up

anywyas

made this for 1 part of the drowned god gale

might change drowned god of gale to fusion

what else do i need again to read?

[forest vortex]

I really think you should only post Cards that you allready rewrote with the Psct in mind.
We had someone doing the exact same thing and no one really liked that he still posted stuff without considering it.

[livid mirage]

ima rewrite my drowned gods after i do something irl and my uncle is done cleanign cuz i cant hear my own thoughts

[lyric wraith]

Yeah I've seen enough

"run through monsters"

If you're that bad at making customs that you need to invent new mechanics

[pallid spindle]

Had to repost both had errors on them

wouldn’t it be hard for a entity deck make it to link 4?

[quick turret]

Quick Play Spell
Target 1 "Masked HERO" monster you control; send it to the GY, also, after that, if it left the field by this effect, Special Summon 1 "HERO" Fusion monster from your Extra Deck with the same Level that the sent monster had when it was on the field (its original Level, if face-down)```

send Dark Law summon Grandmerge with 0 attack

[pallid spindle]

Nope. as the deck is just all random cards just to make X cards. and hence 3+ monsters, including an "Entity" monster so you can use the link 3 and another monster.

[fathom pivot]

eh guess you can

since there’s like 5 entity cards that are legal

[pallid spindle]

4

Azathot and Norden are banned

4 of which are legal

it is sad that the best 2 are banned tbh

[pure eagle]

Pretty much all of them except Nyarla have seen actual use outside being stepping stones

[pallid spindle]

Nyarla saw play in nekroz for ocg
Hastorr only windwitch and speedroid
N'tss was in FTK decks
Chathuga hasn't seen 1 bit of meta play.

[tulip kelp]

theres definitely some crazy things we can do with this

its probably not more broken than anything that already exists but theres gotta be some insane wacky ftk you can do by summoning cthugua without cost non-opt

[pallid spindle]

I mean sure but it's the most mid one

[tulip kelp]

dagon's the mid one, never worth

yog is hard to summon but so so worth, mad advantage on this thing

[atomic dew]

cave dragon is a wind monster?

[long spruce]

Apparently

Would be strange if it was something like a EARTH Monster

[atomic dew]

true. I can't imagine a dragon that lives exclusively in caves being anything other than wind.

[sacred parrot]

me neither.

[long spruce]

WATER maybe due to the humidity

[atomic dew]

let's not be presumptuous about the atmosphere of the cave, now

[long spruce]

Is... Is the Flip part relevant in 2023?

[forest vortex]

That Man-Eater Bug counter/jk

[sacred parrot]

what about shadolls?

[forest vortex]

There are only a few Archetypes that this would counter
Krawlers, Subterror, Shaddols.....that's all of them that I know of

[honest bane]

Tindangles, and the variety of Jar monsters

Though tindangles kinda suck, and the Jars aren't really an archetype

Shadolls and Subterror are the only remotely relevant flip archetypes.

And shadolls don't really flip, just fusion send, and Subterrors are more floodgate

[forest vortex]

In summary. Flip Monsters are not relevant enough for this effect

[uneven abyss]

tfw cyber jar has way too relevant card dr- (ash blossom and joyous negation)

Another version of the 2 Dark Spirit Monsters

You can only use each effect of "Dark Spirit of Sorrow" once per turn.```

[dire leaf]

Welcome to Round 34 of the Custom Card Tournament!
Rules

1. There will be one Judge, usually the one who won the last contest.
2. Cards will be judged based on PSCT, Creativity, Balance, and perhaps other criteria which will be decided by the current Judge beforehand. PSCT is based on the latest available, usually Series 11.
3. You can usually only submit 1 card, or 1 series, or 1 archetype, depending on the nature of the competition. You can edit your submission before the deadline arrives as much as you want, but once it arrives you cannot change it.
4. You must make your card through some kind of card maker (Duelingbook, TCGEditor, YugiohCardMaker, etc.) and upload it as an imgur image. Cards will be presented at the end with the creator's name and their score in a final ranking.
5. The winner of each round will have an opportunity to judge the next round and/or choose the next contest theme. If they do not wish to be the next Judge, they can either let the next in line have the opportunity to be a judge and pick the theme or they can pick a theme and let one of the Assistants act as the Judge over the theme.
6. You cannot ask the current Judge for the round to help you with your card. If asking for feedback in the custom card channel, try to make it clear that it's for the competition.

Theme & Deadline
This week's theme is Attribute Support Link 2+ Monster, more specifically, A Link 2 or higher monster that supports exactly one attribute.
