[OOC] The Duel Tower: The first year students. (A Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Academy Roleplay.) [Axed]

[Ammokkx]

Made it into a copy of Shiranui Spectralsword for warriors.

Name: Assistant Tactician
Level: 2
Attribute: Earth
Type: Warrior
Monster Types: Tuner/Effect

Effect: If this card is in your Graveyard except during the turn it was sent there: You may Banish this monster and 1 non-tuner Warrior-Type monster from your Graveyard. Special Summon from your Extra Deck 1 Synchro Warrior-Type monster whose Level equals the exact total levels of those two monsters you banished. You can only use this effect of "Assistant Tactician" once per turn.

Attack: 0 Defense: 800

Edit: Since it changed a bit if this counts as submitting a new card then I can wait.

@Eklispe

Vayu really gets the shaft on these effects. No matter, I'll let it through. CB pending. I'll get around to assigning CB's to each new card either today or tomorrow

[Eklispe]

@Eklispe better reword "Special Summon" to "Synchro Summon", unless it was worded like that on purpose.

@Scarifar

More or less copy pasted the effect and I believe it excludes some monsters that have to be synchro summoned and can't be summoned by any other way being the reasoning.

[Ammokkx]

Name: Assault Blackwing - Tanto the Sleet
Level/rank: 1
Attribute: DARK
Monster Type(s): Winged-Beast/Effect/Tuner
Effect: You can banish this card and one other non-tuner 'Blackwing' monster from your graveyard. Synchro Summon one 'Blackwing' Synchro monster from your extra deck using the banished monsters as the materials. The monster summoned by this effect is returned to the Extra Deck during the End Phase of that turn. You can only activate the effect of 'Assault Blackwing - Tanto the Sleet' once per turn.
ATK/DEF: 0/800

A small, white bird wearing a half-torn coat over it's right shoulder, with a jet-black suit of armor protecting them from harm. The left eye has an eye patch, with claw markings jutting out from underneath it. An oddly red-colored tuft of feathers rests atop its head. A small blade is hidden underneath an oversized shoulder guard which holds the coat in place.

Name: Assault Blackwing - Vayu the Emblem
Level/rank: 1
Attribute: DARK
Monster Type(s): Winged-Beast/Effect/Tuner
Effect: You can banish this card and one other non-tuner 'Blackwing' monster from your graveyard. Synchro Summon one 'Blackwing' Synchro monster from your extra deck using the banished monsters as the materials. The monster summoned by this effect is returned to the Extra Deck during the End Phase of that turn. You can only activate the effect of 'Assault Blackwing - Vayu the Emblem' once per turn.
ATK/DEF: 0/800

It's still Vayu, though it now has an emblem with claw marks covering its left eye, and there is a jet-black shoulder guard on the same side. Part of Vayu's jacket has been ripped off to make room for it, and a small dagger is hidden inside of it.

@Ammokkx

So, some problems with the nomenclature again.

Assault Blackwings have a distinct naming convention from the Blackwings that Vayu is derived from. These Blackwings debut in the anime and have a naming pattern of "Blackwing - (some word referring to wind, air, natural phenomena, or birds) the (random word that sounds cool, I guess)."

Blackwings debuting in the manga are named as "Blackwing - (historical or mythological weapon) the (astronomical phenomenon)." Vayu belongs in the previous category though, so I don't know why I wrote this, but I'm not deleting it.

Assault Blackwings have semi-differing names based on if the monster is a Main Deck Monster or a Synchro Monster. Main Deck Monsters are named as "Assault Blackwing - (specifically Japanese weaponry) the (rain phenomenon)," while Synchro Monsters are "Assault Blackwing - (name of mythological or legendary Japanese weapon) the (rain phenomenon)."

I know you want to keep the name the same because it's basically a retrain of Vayu, but by making it a different monster with a similar effect, you can actually set up an interesting duality between the Blackwings and the Assault Blackwings. Or at the very least, keep with the nomenclature.

@Ammokkx

Sorry to bug you, but is the latest edition of Deepspace Sniper acceptable?

Deepspace Sniper
Level 4
Light/Machine/Effect
1200/600
When this card destroys a monster by battle, you can target one card in your opponent's hand: Destroy it, then if it was a monster, your opponent loses 500 LP.

[Scarifar]

I feel like I'm the only one actually trying to make custom Spells and Traps rather than focusing on monsters.

It's probably not the case, but it feels like it to me.

[Eklispe]

I'd say you're right, I'm thinking about some but first I wanna make bigger barrier statues.

[Ammokkx]

@LunarStandard ...*sigh*

Okay, look. Lore's important. I get that. But I aint Konami, and I'm not going to be able to think up of names that thematically fit each time. I'm also not a fan of making new archetypes altogether, because there's enough clutter in the game as is. I'd rather just focus on the effects and making archetypes/cards more useful rather than keep in theme with naming, because I know I can't keep up. If you have a better name for it, then say so. But it'd be real awkward to just call him a regular blackwing.

@Scarifar

I honestly only made that card because of inside jokes. Spur-of-the-moment thing. I don't plan on making too many. (hell, before this, I was thinking of a non-archtype fusing trap card!)

@Tojin

Wording's awkward, but the card's fine now. Accepted.

I'll see about assigning each new custom card custom boosters within the next six hours. Also, I heard no complaints about Vayu other than the name, so I'll preemptively accept that unless people have issue with it.

@Ammokkx

Assault Blackwing - Tanto the Sleet

[The Red Seelie]

<Snipped quote by Ammokkx>

Assault Blackwing - Tanto the Sleet

@LunarStandard

Assault Blackwing - Hamon the Downpour.

Just sounds cooler then sleet. Plus the Hamon is the blade pattern of a japanese sword meaning that since most Assault Blackwings are named after weapons, a Tuner thats named after the visual effect of the sword during creation. Makes sense as the Tuner is literally creating birds with weapons.

[Ammokkx]

I'll go with Tanto the Sleet. Hamon is already a name for a Sacred beast, and also, Downpour sounds more fitting for a Synchro.

[The Red Seelie]

@Ammokkx Fair play.

[EviiPaladin]

So in case anyone is wondering why Stan and I keep having our characters sort of have a weird sense of facing each other, it's because we tested our structure decks against each other a bunch.

This latest loss puts the current record at 0-5 for the Wormies.

RIP Worms.

@EviiPaladin

Heh. If a duel is incredibly lopsided, I'm up for it being rigged as long as both parties agree to it, and it makes sense in story. Haas getting a natural win through card draw against Ethel is fine, for example, but it wouldn't make any sense for me to rig it in Haas' favor since he's out of her skill league in-story. In the same vein, if somehow Ethel's deck was worse, I could rig the duel in her favor because she's supposed to be better. Not that I've ever thought of rigging stuff myself (well, with one exception, and I didn't participate in that duel myself.)

[Satoshi Kyou]

i feel like i should have Hayato duel Hayate at some point and have him lose again (basically he always beat her back in the day and it'd be flavorful if he keeps losing at the point)

[Ammokkx]

@Tojin Next time, please use my template for custom cards please. It saves me a lot of work. Only just now ran into the issue when adding your cards to the list.

Sorry, my bad. I'll make sure to remember that next time.

Also, who all is in the card shop, again?
