Jarukoth, I have to commend you here. I play Magic, and these are some excellent cards.

I particularly like Naruto's abilities, they seem very well balanced for his cost. But the Clone technique should have some kind of limit to it, like Shadow Replication has. Otherwise you'll just keep making clones 2/3 as powerful as Naruto indefinitely, and that's not what Shadow Replication depicts (if I'm not mistaken it divides Naruto's power among the clones).

Also, Ed's ability is pretty insane, you could blow people away with an ornithopter style deck (low cost artifacts, etc), or even an affinity deck.

Hmm...

Put that one on the "work in progress" list.

It's in Apocalyspe.

Here's what it does:

Mana Cost: 3 colorless Mana, 1 black mana , 1 green mana (3BG)
Abilities:
Whenever Spirit Monger deals damage, put a +1/+1 counter on it.
B: Regenerate Spirit Monger.
G: Change Spirit Monger's color to any color of your choice.
Strenght: 6/5



So yeah, a 6/5 create for 5 mana, which Regenerates for a black mana and can change color incase that a spell that specifies a color targets it. Even better whenever it deals damage(of any kind), you put a +1/+1 counter on it.

Spirit Monger? Don't believe I've heard of it. What set is it in, DarkSlaya?

Will to live and Bananaphone are still my favorites.

Yoshi Dude will LOVE the "Will to live" one... And what anime is that "Surprise Attack" from?

It looks cool. Aah, a Mortal Kombat one...nice. Don

Now, that's much better....

You should make a card as cool as Spirit Monger, with almost the same abilities. Now that would nice.

Okay, I edited my last post, and put updated the pics of Ed and Ermac. Ed was pretty much totally redone after some more thought.

To be honest, I didn't give too much thought to Ed when I first made it...

Yeah, Apple, Indestructible is an ability in the new block.

I don't like the 8th edition lay out but they look good

The Sephiroth card wording doesn't seem right. Why don't you just say "If Sephiroth is put in to the graveyard from play, return to owners hand". Or something similar?

I haven't played magic since Urza Saga was released so I'm probably missing ALOT of new rules and stuff. In which case, sorry I said anything.

I like them though, I wouldn't mind seeing some gold cards though (I didn't look through them all so if you already have some...)

Then again, It requires sacrificing artifacts so a Blue & Black card would balance it's ability.

Superior Training: Should read "Sacrifice Superior Training" instead of "Remove Superior Training". Nice picture!

Ermac: His affinity for red creatures does absolutely nothing because he has no colorless mana in his casting cost. Plus, a 4 red casting cost is ridiculous. I would make it 5RR or 4RR.

Ed, Master Hacker: Yeah, this guy should cost more and so should his ability. He should have to sacrifice in order to use that ability. Also, destroying creatures is not in blue's flavor at all. That would be black.

Freddy Krueger: Might want to lower his regeneration cost, because it's too expensive right now. I'd say BB instead of BBBT.

Sephiroth: Nice. The low casting cost is balanced out by the quad black, which in a mono deck is of no concern, making it an awesome card.

A few things:


- Make the ability "Ed, Master Hacker" a little less powerful, please? Make the ability cost a little more mana.

- If I remember correctly, you can't tap a creature to make it regenerate itself (not sure thought)

- Sephiroth is incredibly strong but it's alright since he has a high mana cost.

Round 3 Overall: Good.

And finally...from the "I can't believe I didn't make this one sooner" file...

I, too, have my own set, dunno where it is thought. And I like the cards you made because these don't have crazy abilities.

I see you... I like that one the most because it looks funny... You

Some problems, from a rule point of view:

T-Virus: Regeneration only works while a creature is in play. It should read "put it into play under your control" instead of "regenerate it"

The Redeemer: This is so not blue-flavored. It should either be black, red, or an equipment like Phil said. Also, it should target the creature of yours.

Monster Garage: As it reads, the second effect on this card would let you take any artifact creature in play. I think you meant for it to read "Return target artifact creature from any graveyard to play under your control".

Those are very well done, I like Bananaphone . There is one problem, however. Focused Rage is all wrong. It needs to be Uma .

Only problem i see is that redeemer should be an artifcat.


it should say "equipped creature has: when this creature deals damage to a player, destroy all creatures except for the equipped creature"

and it should have an equip cost of at least half the casting cost, if not more.

Ooh yay Rikku is the best FF girl, she'd kick Yuffie's ass anyday.. *ahem*

Anyway.. Those look good too. I'd give more constructive criticism, but I haven't played Magic for quite a while, so I've forgotten everything, heh :/
