That boss monster is ridiculous. Like beyond stupidly powerful. Judgment Dragon is a card that straddles the line of being ridiculous and this card makes it blush for a number of reasons.
- Easier summoning condition: You could get this card out turn 1. You can feasibly get JD turn 1, but that requires a great deal of luck. This one you just need to draw it and two other cards of its archetype. That's insane.
- Attack/Defense: 4k is still a big deal even now. Only the biggest and most ridiculous cards get to wield that stat. Stuff like god cards (of all varieties, not just Egyptians) get this but also are made to be difficult to toss out. Getting a 4k beatstick out for a -1 or, if the cards are already in the grave, a +1? Yeah, that's crazy.
- Effect: Normally the effect wouldn't be that bad but when combined with other stuff from the archetype, you can easily burn down half an opponent's life points and then still have a 4k beater to finish the job. I mean, let's break it down here...
- Banish two DE-23 to summon SF-00. 2000dmg.
- Special Summon RF-33. 2000 + 1400 = 3400dmg.
- Special Summon TU-60. 3400 + 1500 = 4900dmg.
- Normal Summon FD-43. 4900 + 2800 = 7700dmg.
- Tribute any KA for TU's eff. gg
- Even without that FTK, those two DE-23s are coming back. Even without the burn damage from SF-00, have a free Volcasaurus to do some more burn damage and Gaia that to do some more piercing damage.
Honestly, I'm more than a little worried about this whole archetype as it is, because they can just do insane amount of damage in such a short amount time without needing to do much work. Plus, they get all the fun that comes with being DARK and Machines.
"Evii is right though" -Saturn "I didn't know you were a bitch Evii." -Lior Val
...
I like the look of that Levelutionary monster. Though that's probably because I quite like the LV monsters.
Anyways, figured I'd try expanding a little on the ideas I had with These cards here
.
- Budding Magician
- Level 3/EARTH Attribute
- Plant/Effect
- 900/600
- You can Special Summon this card by discarding a level 6 or higher Plant-type monster. If this card is tributed for a Tribute Summon, you can add a 'Petal Magician' or 'Petal Magician Girl' from your deck to your hand or graveyard. This card gains 100 attack points for every 'Petal Counter' on it.
- A child magician, dressed mainly in green and waving a small wand in front of a large tree. Androgynous features.

- a cheerful looking young girl standing within a clearing. She's holding a basket filled with flowers, and offering one to the 'camera'.
- Konohanasakuya - The Goddess of Blossom
- Level 9/LIGHT Attribute
- Plant/Effect
- 2750/2600
- The Normal, Flip or Special Summon of this card cannot be negated. When this card is Summoned, place ten 'Petal Counter's on any face-up Plant-type monsters on the field. Those monsters gain 100 attack points for each 'Petal Counter' placed on them. When this card leaves the field, remove all 'Petal Counter's from the field and choose one of these effects:
- Inflict damage to your opponent equal to the number of Petal Counters x 100, or;
- Special Summon a Plant-type monster from your hand, deck or graveyard whose level is equal to or lower than the number of 'Petal Counter's, excluding this card.
- A beautiful woman with flowing robes, surrounding by all manner of plants.
- Sakura Nightmare
- Continuous Spell Card
- Once per turn, during each of your main phases add four 'Petal Counter's to any card(s) that you can place a 'Petal Counter' on. During each of your End Phases, remove two 'Petal Counter's from the field. If you do not, destroy this card.
- A whirlwind of cherry blossoms, blocking the view of everything. Some of the petals seem to have withered into a brown/black state.
- Veil of Petals
- Continuous Trap
- If a face-up Plant-type monster is attacked, you can remove two 'Petal Counter's from the field to negate it.

The Boss monster's been altered to require banishing 3 of them.
And it does lock down your own spell and trap zone, meaning if something goes wrong, you have nothing to defend yourself with.
As for the amount of damage these things deal, its meant to represent that D'Hale is, among the villains, singularly obsessed with inflicting damage to the opponent in frequently excessive amounts.

Minor note, but I added that Konohana can't summon herself back/another copy using her own effect, since it was pointed out that could probably be abused.
- Nice Boat
- Level 10
- Water / Machine
- This card cannot be normal summoned or set. This card cannot be special summoned except by banishing 4 "Boat" monsters from your graveyard (including Yomi Ship), and cannot be special summoned in other ways. Once per turn, you may special summon 1 Level 4 or lower Water monster from your hand. It is destroyed at the end of the turn. You may return 1 Ship monster from the banished zone to your deck to destroy 1 card your opponent controls. If this card would be destroyed during either player's turn, you may banish 1 Ship monster from your side of the field to negate the destruction.
- 3000/2000
- A strange yacht spattered with the blood of those who dared obstruct its path in the seas, floating amiably by, dissonantly so, a woman clutching a thing that looks like a man's head standing at the prow. It has an incredibly sinister aura.

I decided to jump in and join in the card creation business. All of these are based upon movies, and as such aren't really original, but I thought I'd share them with you.
These four cards are based off of Little Shopof Horrors, especially the theater and 1986 movie version.

- EARTH/Plant
- 1900/2250
- Once per turn, send 2 cards from your hand to the Graveyard in order to destroy one of your opponent's face-up monsters who has an ATK that is equal to or lower than this card. During the End Phase of a turn that this card destroyed a monster, send this card to the Graveyard and Special Summon 1 "Alien Plant LV 7" from your hand or Deck.

Alien Plant LV 9
- Level 9
- EARTH/Plant
- 2950/3500
- This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except by releasing 1 "Alien Plant LV 7" you control. During your Main Phase, send a card from your hand to the Graveyard in order to destroy one of your opponent's monsters.
- A huge bulb surround by smaller bulbs. All of the bulbs look like they're about to eat the whomever is looking at them.
These next few should be obvious were they come from. I've been watching too much of it, and these came to mind.

Thought I'd try and just support an archetype that's already there this time rather than make my own. Sorry, but I'm not experienced enough to rate the ones above.
Efficiency of the Six Samurai
- Spell, Continuous
- When a card(s) on your side of the field would gain a Bushido counter, you may discard one card from your hand and those card(s) gain an extra Bushido Counter.
Shien's Charge

Electro-shock

Curse the ill fortune that led you to me.
@tclittle - Any particular reason why you chose to not allow Alien Plant LV7 to use the level-up mechanic to become LV9? If you're looking at the Armed Dragon series for the reason, it's because Armed Dragon LV10 was printed some time after LV8 was printed, so they couldn't go back and ret-con the text to have LV8 be able to level-up into it. In this instance, since you're making all the cards right now, there really isn't any particular reason not to allow the level-up (and indeed, it'd allow for the support to work better).
Also, the invincibility pie card won't fully work on Fix-It Felix, since his original ATK is 0. Not sure if you meant it that way or not.
edited 30th Mar '13 7:25:36 AM by Krika
...
even more random Plant-types! Now with 37% more picture descriptions! also added them for the cards further up.
...Also, any critique is welcomed, since I plan to incorprorate these cards into a fic at some point, so I'd rather avoid any horribly broken stuff.
- Rafflesia, Devourer of Life
- Level 6/EARTH Attribute
- Plant/Effect
- 0/2000
- Flip: Destroy the monster that attacked this card. If this card is destroyed by battle and sent to the graveyard, destroy all monsters your opponent controls, excluding Plant-type monsters.

- Garden of the Sun
- Field Spell Card
- All face-up Plant-type monsters gain 300 attack/defense points. Depending on the amount of 'Petal counter's on the field, this card gains these effects:
- 2/4/6/8 Counters: All plant-types can inflict piercing damage to your opponent's monsters.
- 1/3/7/9 Counters: Plant-type monsters on your side of the field cannot be destroyed in battle.
- 10+ Plant type monsters cannot be destroyed in battle, and inflict piercing damage to the opponent's monsters.
- A seemingly endless sea of sunflowers, with a woman holding a parasol seen in the distance.

![[up]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/smiles/arrow_up.png "[up]"){kind=icon}
Actually, the Alien Plant series I developed years ago, the last time I was into making cards. I had specifically modeled the series after the Armed Dragon series. I should point out I'm not really that big into the game itself, and I don't keep up when cards come out. I'll go ahead and see about changing it.
As for the invincibility pie, that's intentional. I wanted to give the card some other function other than making the monster invincible. Also, if you've watched Wreck-It Ralph, you'll notice Felix can't really hurt anything, and is really weak. That's why I gave him his non-existent ATK and low DEF, but I gave him a powerful ability to make up for it.
"We're all paper, we're all scissors, we're all fightin' with our mirrors, scared we'll never find somebody to love."
Mmm. Fair enough for the pie.
And yes, Armed Dragon is an anomaly among the LV monsters, because it's final level had a staggered release. I wouldn't recommend that as an exact model, but whatever floats your boat.
...
Even more Plant stuff!
- Prickly Thorns
- Continuous Trap
- Every time a Plant-type monster on your side of the field attacks or is attacked, deal 300 points of damage. If the attacked/attacking Plant-type Monster on your side of the field has 'Rose' in its name, decrease the opponents' monsters' attack by 200 at the end of the damage step.
- A 'Fallen Angel of Roses' is seen whipping an Ojama monster.
- Nature Preservation Tactics
- Continuous Spell
- When resolving effects that require 'Petal Counter's, use one less counter.
- ...I guess someone would be protecting a tree?
And just because the pun is too tempting:
- Blue-Eyes White Dragonfly
- LIGHT Attribute/Insect
- 3000/2500
- "An insect said to rival the legendary Blue-Eyes White Dragon. It is said that three cans of bug-spray are needed to fell this mighty creature."
- It's like a blue-eyes. Except more dragonfly...ish.
edited 18th May '13 3:02:35 AM by TroperRoxas
- Gogiga Impact
- Normal Trap
- Destroy all monsters you control, then, if their combined levels equal 8 or more, destroy a number of cards your opponent controls up to the number of your cards destroyed by this card's effect and Special Summon one "Gogiga Gagagigo" from your deck. "Gogiga Gagagigo" cannot attack directly this turn.
- The Goblin Attack Force standing over a defeated Oshaeleon looking smug, with Gogiga Gagagigo lunging towards them in the background.
- Kozaky's Surgery
- Quick-Play Spell
- Tribute one "Gigo" monster you control, Special Summon one "Gigo" monster from your hand or deck whose level is up to 3 higher than the tributed monster.
- Kozaky standing over an operating table with Gagagigo on it.

- Rank 5
- DARK, Psychic/Xyz/Effect, 2 or more (Max. 5) level 5 "Interplanetarypurplythorny" monsters

Right, got that idea out of the way. Now to go back and add descriptions to the Djinn of Ritual cards...
...
...I approve of an Interplanetarypurplythorny archetype.
The Plum and Only
Any idea if my stupid Batteryman supports will do anything? To a lesser effect the six sam ones too, but I guess I want to see Batterymen become relevant.
Curse the ill fortune that led you to me.
They look good to me.
Um, does anyone have any opinions on the terrible Gigo support?
Burn up, hurricane of justice!
...
The Jump Leads sounds like a weaker version of what revival cards they already have, but I suppose it'll help set up xyz's/atteryman OTK situations. The wording of the field spell confuses me, but I guess it's like those cards that say 'Normal Summon this monster, then Normal Summon another'?
Since it seems I didn't actually comment on them earlier, anything that makes classic cards somewhat usable is awesome.
Alright...First I want it to be known that while Efficiency isn't overly bad to my knowledge, I think Shien's Charge is kinda stupid. Activate in during your opponent's End Phase, you're good to go! But now that's out of the way, onto what you asked about...(knowing diddly squat about Batteryman stuff).
Electro Shock....I can't see it as any worse than Gladiator Beast's Chariot. I don't think it's a problem much, though I could be wrong about that.
Factory now....*twitches* free..double..summoning......gah. Admittedly, the wording appears to make it mandatory that you summon both at once, and explicit that they have to be both Batteryman monsters, but still...Double Summon effects aren't usually this draw-back free.
Jump Leads....Summon two monsters, tribute or otherwise send them to the grave before the End Phase, disadvantage avoided. I'd personally have the wording banish them during the next End Phase or whenever it leaves field, whichever comes first, but that's just me and wanting to avoid such loopholes.
Charger...I think is fine. Maybe a couple hundred points off the attack (you aren't going to not want to target a monster with it, so it might have in excess of 3000 ATK on your turns), but not really a necessary thing.
EDIT: Due to being Ninja'd, Tachi your answer comes! Why not make the wording on the first one something like "Summon a Gigo monster whose level is less than or equal to the combined level of the destroyed monsters"? It would increase the usability a little bit, rather than being a conditional 1-1. And still have the destruction only trigger off of summoning Giga Gagagigo.
edited 3rd Apr '13 3:26:53 PM by Krika
To be fair, even if it just destroyed them...or even if it just summoned them in defense position, Jump Leads would still be weaker than a lot of revival cards nowadays.
And that would probably be a good idea, yeah. I'll make that change at some point.

I know, it's not that great of a card comparatively, but I still would try to close up loopholes like that out of principle more than balance.
...
Let's see, time to finish off these Petal Counter cards with what is hopefully a way to balance the potential ability to end up with ludicrous amounts. And if anyone wants to critique the archetype, here is some links.
- Flower-Eating Eater of Flowers
- Level 4/EARTH Attribute
- Plant/Effect
- 2300/0
- This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card can only be Special Summoned by removing four 'Petal Counter's from the field. If this card declares an attack, remove two 'Petal Counter's from the field at the end of the Damage Step.
- Something that looks like a tree with a face is lumbering around a forest, hunting for Dandylions.
- The Legendary Warrior-Gardener
- Level 3/EARTH Attribute
- Warrior/Effect
- 1300/1100
- As long as this card remains face-up on the field, 'Petal Counter's on the field won't deplete, unless used for Summoning. When this card is destroyed and sent to the graveyard, add two 'Petal Counter's to the field.
- A silver-haired girl is seen cutting tall grass with her sword. Somehow reaching far longer than her blade really should.
- The Cursed Tree of Cherry Blossoms
- Level 8/DARK Attribute
- Plant/Effect
- 0/2900
- During each of your Standby Phases, place two 'Petal Counter's on the field. During each of your End Phases, remove three 'Petal Counter's. Plant-Type monsters are also treated as Zombie-type monsters while this card is face-up on the field. When this card is destroyed, remove half of your 'Petal Counter's (rounding down) and, then you can Special Summon a 'The Legendary Warrior-Gardener' from your deck.
- A bare tree with a faint, malicious aura surrounding it. A woman is seen resting at its base, looking a bit too pale...
- Replacement Bouquet
- Normal Spell Card
- Select a number of 'Petal Counter's (1-3) and replace them with 'Flower Counter's or 'Plant Counter's. Place the counters on the appropriate cards ('The World Tree' and 'Seed Cannon' respectively).
- The Innocent Flower girl is handing over a bouquet to an elderly woman.
- Weeding
- Normal Spell Card
- Send a level 3 or lower Plant-type Monster from the deck to the graveyard. You cannot Special Summon the turn you activate this card, unless you remove five 'Petal Counter's from the field.
- ...I guess someone is burying a Dandylion or a Spore?
- Gardener Wanted!
- Normal Spell Card
- For every card on the field that has a 'Petal Counter'(s) on it, double the amount of 'Petal Counter's it has. During the End Phase, remove all 'Petal Counter's you have remaining. For the next two turns after the End Phase, you cannot add 'Petal Counter's to the field.
- A silver-haired girl is seen slashing at a giant tree that seems to be raining cherry blossoms onto the area.
