Shoemanband5 years ago I never said this card's design was garbage or bad, but you're right that I didn't really make any suggestions. I was kinda just writing out some of my thoughts about it without any actual verdict, more to start a conversation than anything (which I guess worked).
quakins5 years ago But you didnt if make good suggestions. "Oh yeah this is a great card if you're using it in the situation you are supposed to use it in, but otherwise garbage bad design." Like yeah no kidding man. There are a lot of cards we currently have in the game that are super situational like that.
Shoemanband5 years ago And by "bad" I just mean something that I don't like, not objectively bad. If a card's objectively bad, it'll probably be voided.
Shoemanband5 years ago That's just how I like to judge custom cards, based on how well they would work in the general design of the game. I just tend to make more negative criticisms because if cards are lacking in power or design I want to suggest improvements. That doesn't mean that having a good concept doesn't matter, just that it's usually rarer to find a card here that has a bad concept than one that has a bad design.
quakins5 years ago It is a very neat concept. No need to pick out all the situations where this wouldnt be useful. You seem to like doing that
Shoemanband5 years ago A good card if you're planning for fatigue, but the very poor stats means this won't help in any other situation. Combo decks like Big Druid and Exodia Mage could use this to keep extra copies of their combo pieces, but they still have to decide if they can afford to have two copies of the same card in their hand next turn.
