@Menhir
As in attack and defense points? As far as those go, no monsters have attack/defense values that aren't in the tens. Once that and the effect damage is lowered, you're free to put your character in the character tab.

@dragonmancer
I don't get what Scarifer's always on about because seriously who runs Totem Dragon? Now, Keeper of the Shrine on the other hand... But I digress. It's a decent field wipe I guess. There are a few things that I'd do to balance it. Maybe make it so that it only destroys monsters with attack less than it does like Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend? Or maybe with defense less than its attack like Red-Eyes Archfiend of Lightning? Maybe it's a walking Heavy Storm?

Sorry to say, I might be biased against your cards because I personally in my own opinion think that the game has way too many dragons to the point where every other deck has a dragon as its boss, including Rex Raptor's dinosaurs, which have always had dragons as bosses (Red-Eyes and Tyrant Dragon). Then there's Jurracs and Evols which are also dinosaurs with dragon bosses. But hey. Maybe the new structure deck won't have a dragon in it at all.

Though now that I've looked it up, apparently the majority is actually warriors and among those the majority is HEROes.

@Menhir
Change the attack to 1700, defense to 1500, and make the damage it deals when destroyed 2000 instead of 4000.

@Ryik
None of those sound exactly very appealing and I'd actually like to see decks that are more than the hodgepodge "xyz" decks that I've already seen. Be creative in a different way, basically.

@Satoshi Kyou
Yeah. I'm not letting anybody play two characters. At least not at the moment.

Also, @Menhir, isn't wrong. Cross Over was a physical card. You see Reiji giving it to the rest of the Lancers right before the Namek Synchro arc. And now that I have meditated on it, I wouldn't be opposed to your character running around and challenging others to action duels. Though your action field spell, still won't go in your main deck.

Yu-Gi-Oh Soul R (Still Accepting)

That looks like a lot of time invested and I'd hate to reject all of them. However, most of these are redundant not to mention you still suffer from not having the proper wording.

I know you like Rex Raptor's ace monsters, but maybe you should calm down on it. Just for now. I expected them to be shown to me one by one and I did not expect nearly this many, especially those being as redundant as they are, especially with no banlist out. I like that you're trying to come up with customs because I feel that's what the game should be, but at the same time, I feel like if they're really unnecessary, giving your deck a card just to give it a card isn't always the best answer.

@dragonmancer

That's not a problem at all.

@Scarifar
Like clockwork. I'm not even going to dissect this one.

@Menhir

Your character's backstory is enjoyably silly and her duel disk design is fun.

Though Scarifar does bring up a good point saying that action fields don't go in the deck. They're really more an effect of Action Duels, which I am probably going to include in this RP at some point.

Yosenju also do way more normal summoning than anything else, but so far you've got 4 more pendulum monsters than anyone else. Not to mention, the houses are for people who wish to learn/master the summoning method, so maybe in the future, you could have more pendulum yosenjus other than just the gates.

@Thecrash20

You can change your deck. I have to approve the change though.

@Ryik

Before you go about creating custom cards, what kind of character are you thinking of making?

Yu-Gi-Oh Soul R (Still Accepting)

I have a deck in mind that uses pendulums, but considering the deck aims for a second turn exodia victory and only attempts to start spamming the board when it can't do that... it might not be best for this RP.

@Ryik

Is it igknights or metalfoes? Because those decks are playable without Exodia. I'm not even opposed to alternative win conditions as long as it's not a deck that doesn't include opponent interaction.

Are we allowed to have multiple decks on the same character? If so, does every deck the character uses have to include their Solar Legacy? I have an extremely bizarre deck in mind separate from the one above.

You can have multiple decks. The Solar Legacy includes itself whether the player wants it there or not.

@dragonmancer

The other summoning methods can definitely be used by those outside their houses, as in there's no one stopping you from using them. The only problem of course would be mastery of the summoning method as well as importance in your deck. If your deck uses Instant Fusion to bring out Rare Fish, that doesn't automatically mean you're in the fusion house, especially if you're just using it to get out a rank 4. Likewise, a rank 4 toolbox doesn't necessarily mean you're in the Utopia House especially if the focus of your deck isn't Xyz. Which I guess was an error of judgement of mine's when I first looked at Fuubi's deck- though he's not really going into anything else- so I guess it's okay.

@Thecrash20

Actually has multiple summoning methods, though the real reason I'm pinging him is because he hasn't posted much IC or OOC for that matter.

Yu-Gi-Oh Soul R (Still Accepting)

I could do something out of the blue and intrude on the duel. Maybe someone fell and broke something, or maybe someone else even intrudes on the duel.

Also, do you guys really not like the pendulum mechanic? I know that there are what? Four pure pendulum archetypes? But still.

@The book of bad juju

That's actually an interesting proposition. But no. Unless you're playing PSY-frames and just immediately start playing on their turn.

I'm considering joining this, but I'm not sure about some details and felt I should ask:

1. Is it alright if the character I make is another member of Utopia House?

@Ryik

I'm typically not going to keep you out of a house just because there are a lot of people in it already.

2. How much bullshit top-decking is to be expected during duels? The main post says we run by anime rules, but I didn't want to assume "every single draw."

Do you believe in the heart of the cards?

3. Is it preferred for characters to have Solar Legacies or not?

Having a Solar Legacy is preferred.

4. We're allowed up to three custom cards. Does that mean three custom cards per deck, or three types of custom cards? (9 custom cards total)

You start with 3. 1 of them is presumably your Solar Legacy. The other 2 can be whatever.

5. Is there a discord or something for this RP?

I don't like discord because I'm typically never on it.

6. Is this custom card balanced?

Level 8 DARK Plant Effect monster

Once per turn, during your end phase, if you control a level 1 monster on your side of the field, you can special summon this monster from your hand or graveyard. While this card is face-up on the field, you take no battle damage. During your standby phase, destroy all monsters on the field. When this card is destroyed, destroy all spell cards, trap cards, and level 4 or lower monsters in attack position, then take 100 damage for each of them. During the turn this card is destroyed, you cannot attack your opponent directly.

I can see it being a neat tech in a Yang Zing or Fire King deck, but doesn't look too impressive otherwise.

@The book of bad juju

Fire High King Garunix OP pls nerf. It's really not that bad. An artifacts player might see it and go. "Hey. Free plus." Or someone could be crazy like me and tech in Starlight Road or My Body as Swag. Though not off the second take because even though it doesn't get to use its 3rd effect off its 2nd effect, that's non-destruction removal which I don't agree with and in that aspect I prefer the first take. Out of the first take I'd either remove the graveyard effect or give it a more difficult summoning condition. Maybe make it once per duel.

@Satoshi Kyou

I've talked about this twice. Yes. Talking about the IRL meta game within the RP is going out of character and thus bad form. Don't do it. I don't really mind OOC chatter about it though. As in right here and not as a character.

When I said no banlist though, the big thing I wanted to see was themed decks and like a majority of the player characters don't have themed decks. Gambling is nice, Madolches are nice, Zombies are nice, Dustons were nice. RIP.
