New Extra Deck Monster Type: Nightvision

I made a thread about this on the other forum, and I'd like to make a thread here, just because


Nightvision Ninja
When this card is Nightvision Summoned, gain 1000 Life Points. Once per turn, you can flip a monster used as a Nightvision Material in your Deck face-down. Then shuffle your Deck.



To Nightvision Summon is really easy. First, you must have the specified Materials on the field, and they must have the same Attribute as the Nightvision Monster itself. For example, to Nightvision Summon the ninja up their, the materials must be LIGHT. Once you have these on the field, send all the mentioned Extra Deck Monster materials to the Extra Deck face-down, and any non-Extra Deck Monster to your Main Deck, face-up. If the other material you used is an Extra Deck Material, and that was not specified as the second material, banish them instead. If you cannot, just return them to the Extra Deck face-down.

Nightvision Monsters do not have a Level or Rank, and cannot be treated as if they do.

When you draw into a Nightvision Material face-up, nothing really happens. Just flip it so that it's facing the same way as the rest of your Hand, then shuffle your Hand.



Yeah, I just copied/pasted myself.

I put a note at the bottom proving it's me.

Pretty sure I'm the only one on Charmers Forum who frequents YCM anymore.
Anyway, I fixed your image tag, since you used the wrong code (it wasn't showing up on here before). How did you do that filter? Looks sick.

So if I'm understanding this mechanic right, it's like Synchro Summoning only returning the Synchro materials back to the Deck instead of sending them to the graveyard. It's actually a balanced mechanic given the metagame today, but I'm not a fan of the whole "no level/rank" thing. Also since the Nightvision material turns back to normal once you draw it, I don't see the point of your card's OPT effect then. Unless for whatever reason you can't search for or special summon Nightvision materials, which would be silly imo.

It's a really cool concept, but you'd honestly need to present a little bit more support to see how effective it could be.

There are certain cards that can gain effects instead of being flipped down.
I did the Nightvision filter on Google Drive. I used a pen tool so that the attribute wouldn't appear dark-green.
I didn't go with Levels/Ranks/other because of two reasons. The first being that the Nightvision system can be heavily abused if they were able to be used for a Synchro/Xyz Summon. Let's just say you got Ancient Fairy Dragon out on the field, and you would Nightvision Summon a Level 6 monster, and use that card's effect to flip a card in your Deck face-down. Instead, you'd be able to get out a Tuner, and be able to use it to "Level Up Synchro" I like to call it. You just keep going up a Level in the Synchroing system. The fact that you could Xyz with them would just become crazy. You could Xyz into Daigusto Emeral and recycle like crazy, including the used Nightvision attachments, I know it seems too good to pass up, but trust me. Once I start releasing the made Nightvision Cards, you won't be disappointed.
