You make the Card!

Wow you gotta alotta ideas in ur head to do all that. XD Sounds like someone wants some of WotCs sweet sweet money. XD

Or just that it's sometimes fun to do such things. XD

Ok new card. This one came from Bait Doll. Bait Doll is cool coz its annoying. =D

Lure
Spell Card
Common

Flip one of your opponents face-down monsters. If the selected monster has a flip effect, it must be activated at this time. Shuffle this card back into your deck.

Lure...it's interesting as a card. I'm not sure on its effectiveness or anything tho. I guess the card can still work for you in conjunction with stuff like stop defense (which doesn't warrant a slot in decks anyway). It's interesting tho, since you can force activations of abilities that may be harmful to your opponent/benefits them the wrong way (e.g. magician of faith flipped or a man-eater bug flipped or something). It's interesting, this card, and it might work just staying like that.

Yep, my intentions were for it to be a pain, not letting your opponent have any secrets, like high defence monsters or nasty flip effecters.

Well since they flip to defense mode anyway, it might be harmless enough. ;)

But youre not going to attack a face down monster with low life points are you incase its a Battle Footballer or something like that?

I should say that when I said "harmless enough", I meant "it passed the broken rule". So yeah, that would be a situation where this card may come in handy. Looking at it tho, I think it would be more interesting if it could flip YOUR OWN monsters too. Most certainly this is a major power-up that also looks to be harmless enough to leave in the card. Certainly this helps bring no-draw combos and other combos alive that way. ;)

Thats an interesting point. Ok Lure V1.1

Lure
Spell Card
Common

Flip one face-down monster on the field face-up. If the flipped monster has a Flip Effect, it must be activated now. After this card is activated, it is placed into the Deck (not the Graveyard). The Deck is then shuffled.

Okay that looks good. New a better name to go with the card. Lure's okay, but since it doesn't put the monster into attack mode, it's not much of a lure in itself. Any other name to go with it?

Well Stop Defence has been used. But I think Lure is appropriate as it 'lures' the face down pokemon out of hiding.

monsters, not pokemon. XD

Yeah lure generally makes me think of provoking the monster. That's why I'm saying that the whole "not going to attack mode" thing shouldn't be named it IMO.

I knew that :P. You come up with a better name then smart guy. XD

I don't know. Nemesis light? That kinda works...okay it doesn't really. lol

How about Decoy? The pic would like have a pretend monster sitting outside of a cave containing a monster emerging to attack it.

Jaws: Yeah I like decoy. That sounds pretty good. ;)

Marauding Master:
Yata's Reverse: First of all, the whole "end phase discard" thing looked weird, since it wasn't really specifying whether the person has to ENTER battle phase (in which they would have to discard every turn regardless) or otherwise. Also, the second ability has nothing to do with the first ability, and doesn't specify whether this ability applies to JUST you or all players (as the card seems to imply). That's all the bone/beef I have with that one.

Serpent: There are 4 abilities in that single monster, with one of them being plain dumb (the attacking reptiles one) for being too specific. The other two abilities (the last 2) are alright (mind you, the whole "destroyed" thing doesn't specify when the ability goes on the chain), but they stick out like a sore thumb when combined together. My suggestion here is to split this into two cards (I guess both with the "can't be target" thing) and it'll be very good.

Nile god: Looks alright to me. But it might be a little too much on pushing the borders in terms of brokenness.

Ballista: Yeah yeah it's alright.

Archangel: Broken.

BLS: Broken.

First of all, it's Yata's Inverse not Reverse. You can choose if you want to go from Main Phase 1 to your Battle Phase, or go from your Main Phase 1 to your End Phase(in which you wouldn't have to discard). That's plain old game rules, nothing special.

Your kinda right on the Archleviathan.

I don't recall ever hearing that you don't enter phases even if you don't do anything in those phases. It's running the same principle that you HAVE to go through standby phase whether you like it or not, and even if nothing happens during standby phase. Simply said, even if you don't do anything during battle phase, you still have to go through battle phase regardless, because the game does (I don't know whether Upper Deck does the same as Konami tho, since I'm going by Konami rules, this may be why we're differing).

Rather than confuse a good number of people with the inverse (sorry, I misread it), think it would just be better if you just state something along the lines of "declaring attack during battle phase" rather than just entering battle phase (where I've just explained how the GAME itself counts that you have entered battle phase regardless). I think this is a great idea tho, since you can somehow force their attack and then use tricks like negate attack to rob them of their offense after.

Anywho, the whole Yata's Inverse card is still a mess, with two completely unrelated abilities and unclear explanations on them (okay, one where it ends up being that the opponent has to dicard every turn anyway and the other confusing). Although by Upper Deck's standards this is a card they'd likely use, let's keep the standards a little higher. ;)
