Discord, huh? So I guess I won't be able to see their character sheets? That's too bad.

I'm sure once all is said and done, we will have a google doc or forum post somewhere just to keep track of that stuff.

No comment on my second version of signature cards?

I changed Slave magician's effect a bit, it can be used on either turn but only on magician monsters.

I hope it's still ok.

That's totally fine.

I still think your boss is a little bit underwhelming. In general, a good boss should do one of a few things: Floodgate, Remove problematic cards, Extend combos, or attack really well. Your current boss does none of these things. Id personally suggest making it a floodgate, which is something that makes it harder for your opponent to play.

I don't have much experience with these kind of cards, any advice to what floodgate effect in peculiar I should give it?

So the easiest solution while keeping in the theme is something like the attack/defense switching of Ojama Countryhttp://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Ojama_Country which, coupled with your non-battle destruction immunity, may force your opponent to make a sub-optimal play to remove your monster. it will become less good in the later stages of the game, as non-destruction removal becomes more prominent, but for early stages, it should be fine.

Alright. Application deadline is 12am PST. 12 hours from now.

I've been considering turning Theusaes into a Rank 6 Synchro Monster. I would turn Atlantean Elite Guard into a level 3 Tuner with reduced stats and without the summoning-from-discard/deck effect. It would make it harder to regain Theusaes from the Graveyard (I still cannot summon him from banishment, a significant weakness), but it would justify making him a little stronger stat-wise, and, well, I'd be partially uncomfortable with having none of the special forms of summoning (Synchro, XYZ, Polymerization, Pendulum). I do have a few questions about Synchro Summons. First, if a Synchro monster would be added to my hand, is it, or does it return to the Extra deck? If it does go to my hand, can I Tribute Summon it, or would I have to Synchro Summon it from my hand (if that's even possible).

Also, I may have found a solution to dialing back Theusaes' effect; it cannot be activated on consecutive turns. That way, I can still prevent an attack by using it on my opponent's turn, but, as I would have to give up using it on my prior turn, it would be considerably slowed down. That is, if you weren't already thinking that it should only be able to activate on my turn.

Lastly, I still can't think of a good name for my spell (currently Tropical Tradewinds, which is rather bad /irrelevant). The spell lets me summon a monster from my discard pile by banishing other monsters from the discard pile with an equal or greater amount of levels(would add in rank to the wording if I go Synchro), or Special Summon it if I tribute double instead. Anyone have any good ideas?

What about the following effect:

This card can only be destroyed by battle.
This monster's ATK becomes equal to its DEF during the opponent's turn.
Once per turn, you can switch the ATK and DEF of any number of monsters on the field, including this one.

Name and Gender: Leona Goraya, female

Physical Description: A mid-tanned woman, on her late twenties, dark brown hair and brown eyes. Slighty tubby, average height.

Brief Description of the World your Character Comes From: She comes from modern day Russia.

Backstory: Born in a higher-class Russian family, Leona didn't lack anything in her life, except for challenge, which she found in card duelling. It was her grandfather, a fervent player, who brought this into her life. From the bottom of the ladder, she raised to become an expert in her domain. Seeing her looking for more challenger, she and her grandfather entered in a shadow duel, of which the grandfather knew from suspicious origins. He however didn't know the full implication of a shadow duel, and the consequence from defeating her.

Apps closed. Existing apps are free to edit their cards through the weekend. We will likely decide who gets accepted in the next day or so, but we wont start the mechanical work to set up your characters and lock in your cards until Sunday or Monday at the soonest.

Oh. Different than I thought. Anyway, I decided to switch over to Synchro, but I'm still a little on the fence about it. I still don't know how a Synchro would get resummoned, or how it would handle going to/being in the hand, but those aren't too important.((Edit: did some more research and found out))

Spoiler: Pros and Cons of Going Synchro (click to show/hide)

Cons:
-Atlantean Elite Guard will be a little weaker stat-wise, being dropped to level 3 for easier summoning.
-Harder to summon Theusaes, since Elite Guard isn't as quick to summon it. If I get some more Tuner monsters, though, it could become easier to accomplish.
-Harder to retrieve Theusaes from the Graveyard, due to dropping Elite Guard's summoning effect.

Pros:
-Theusaes, being brought to rank 6 for ease of summoning, can reasonably be a little stronger.
-Elite Guard technically isn't as important to summoning it, as Deep Sea Diva could also summon it, so I have some resistance to Chain Destruction and the like.
-It's pretty old-school to not use a special form of summoning(such as XYZ and Pendulum, not including actual Special Summons).
-Biggest of them all, I could Synchro Summon other monsters in a similar way, providing me with multiple strong forces to count on rather than just Theusaes and maybe Poseidra...IF I get other Synchro monsters from Nuke and/or Wierd.

Edit: Also, I'm pretty sure not, but should I list Theusaes' effect as a quick effect?
