Well I've usually got a good idea for a card in my head. But what do you think? Well I've come up with a bunch of cards tell me what you think. I've done my best to make them powerful yet have their drawbacks.


Dark Shadow Knight Welton - The Blademaster
Dark
*******
Warrior/Effect
Once per turn this card may sacrifice 500 of your life points to special summon any "Dark Shadow Knight" monster from your hand to the field, if this effect is activated this card cannot attack this turn. When this Card is attacked in face up position, the attacking monster's attack points are inflicted as battle damage to your opponents life points after the damage step.

2650/2000

Dark Shadow Knight #1
Dark
****
Warrior/Normal
This knight is covered in black armour and has unmatchable offensive sword skills.


1600/800

Dark Shadow Knight #2
Dark
****
Warrior/Normal
This knight is covered in black armour and has unmatchable defensive sword skills.

1200/1800

Dark Shadow Knight Warrior
Dark
****
Warrior/Effect
This card may sacrifice upto 1000 life points; the amount of life points sacrificed is the number of ATk and DEF points this card gains this turn; if this effect is activated, destroy this card at your end phase.

1950/1300


Dark Shadow Knight Calling
Trap
This card activates when a "Dark Shadow Knight" monster is destroyed in battle. You may Special summon 1 "Dark Shadow Knight" Card from either Your, Hand, Deck or Graveyard. You must pay 400 Life points per level star on the card.



Blade of the Dark Shadow Master
Equip
Spell
This card may be equipped to a "Dark Shadow Knight" monster in face up attack position. Increase the card's attack by 1800 attack, the equipped monster must attack every monster card on your opponents side of the field. For every card destroyed by the equipped monster you take 250 life point damage. This card is destroyed at the end of this turn.

mhm.

NIce cards. I especially liked the last effect of DSK Welton. That's brutal.

Thanks. I was going for a: Powerful yet vulnerable card. It's strong and to get rid of it the opponent would lose plenty of life points as well.

Black Luster Soldier Vs. Welton
3000 Vs. 2650
-0 Vs. -350
-3000 Vs. -0

Black Luster soldier would destroy Welton but Welton's effect would kick in after and cause 3000 life point damage on tis way to the graveyard.

they're all unplayable except for shadow knight warrior. 1000 LP to swing for 3000 is a small price to pay.

and that blade which increases the atk by 1800. lol. what a randomly random number.

Explain to me how they're "unplayable"

sorry, by unplayable, i meant they're cards no one would ever play.

I was sorta trying to hint that to you without being as bold.

But um nice try.

Ah I see yeah.

There goes another member.

Instead of you know just insulting him, why not just tell him what to do to make the cards better?

I didnt do it FC did I'm innocent.

good idea.

to make good create-a-cards, you need 2 things.

1) a theme/genre everyone doesnt see every day. Warriors are so four formats ago. pick something unique. or make your own unique type of monsters.

2) balanced effects that people will actually use. For example...


Hidden Potential
Spell

Select one face-up monster on your side of the field with 300 ATK points or less. If this monster attacks your opponent directly during the turn this card is activated, you win the duel.

Obviously this card is ridiculously broken. Try not to make ridiculously broken

But, if it were to be something like this...

Hidden Potential
Spell

Select one face-up monster on your side of the field with 1000 ATK points or less. If this monster attacks your opponent directly during the turn this card is activated, draw 2 cards.

sure, it might run into some broken combos with spirit reaper, but it's somewhat balanced now.

it could be even more balanced...

Hidden Potential
Spell

Select one face-up monster on your side of the field. If this monster attacks your opponent directly during the turn this card is activated, inflict damage to your opponent's lifepoints equal to the ATK of the selected monster.


balanced card. good card. useable? not in every deck. unique? definitely. excellent tech choice? quite possibly.

I guess I'm just tired of seeing

INSERT NAME HERE
PREDICTABLE TYPE AND ATTRIBUTE
EFFECT: SOMETHING ONLY YUGI OR JADEN COULD MAKE PLAYABLE WITH THEIR LIVING ARROWS AND/OR BUBBLEMAN WITH GOOD EFFECT.

O_o.

chill.

For what did I give of the wrong impression?

chill.
