Title: Some random cards....
Post by: dermo4christ on April 22, 2016, 11:34:36 AM
Here are some random cards that I had ideas for. King Darius was in another post but I put him in this one as well as he was created with other cards in this group:

The way these cards are written, as soon as you put a LS in Media, Cyrus the Great becomes bulletproof.  The last thing this game needs is more bulletproof heroes - Gideon and King Hez are bad enough, as there are so few EEs with "Regardless of protection..." abilities.

Also, Cyrus' Decree shouldn't recur itself.  For a GE to self-recur, it either needs to be played in battle, or have a very mild TC ability.  Cyrus' Decree isn't mild.

Sorry I missed the bulletproof possibility.  However, if the site is negated he wouldn't be.  I know the likely hood of that happening is tough because not everyone plays Isaiah's call....lol. And yes, CD is not mild. However, it's negateable. What would you suggest on that?

However with the both Cyrus and media in play, it's a cbn protect, because Cyrus makes median cards cbn.

Regarding the Decree (either version), there is no special ability in Redemption with the keyword "remove." If you meant "remove from the game" then you have to actually use the whole phrase, "remove" by itself has no meaning. Just fyi.

I will fix that! Other than that, Browa, what do you think about that card and the others?

They seem good. I think Media might still be a little OP with Cyrus' CBN-granting status. No way to know for sure without playtesting.
