Post by: twinsbuster on July 31, 2010, 02:15:27 am

Different from the Western one, the Chinese Zodiac cycle every 12 years.
There are 12 creatures representing different Zodiac. You can see the Oracle Diagram below.

monkey- play cost too high, and with a limited steal, that should go down too

tiger- keep it like that, but do gains +(N/5)/+1 where N equls the number of monsters destroyed

rat- the upped should increase is playing cost and summon retrovirus (bubonic plague lol)

pig- like it, no change

dog- OP, too low of a cost to be able to absorb damage automatically, and then use lycanthrope, all you need is a (cheap) BB and boom easy shield

goat- like it, takes away auto kills like siphon life


...............where are the other ones?!?!?!?! add them here so i can update this post. and i like the old series better

and why do they all use  :darkness lol

monkey
I take butterfly effect as a reference...5 play cost+3 ability cost+1 creature, destroy only
so in compare, the monkey should have higher cost
stealing pillars and shields each turn is strong enough against stall deck

tiger
I want to add something but no space left

rat
generate retrovirus maybe OP, an on stack mass creature control...

dog
consider it will probably die before it can use Lycanthropy, since it come into play with gravity pull. But I think I missed the BB combo.

ok but with butterfly effect and steal, they dont have limitations like this, one immortal creature/ weapon, useless, on BB creature, virtually useless, RoL/Hope decks, useless, growth decks, gone, rush, gone, any fractal, wrecked, flying weapons, double doom, etc

and there's no way to stall with this card, it cost to much to play, and then you can't frequently steal enough with this card to stop pillars, and some shields that could be stolen don't work well for stall

about monkey steal ability, what about deal dmg to itself by the number of opponent creature and weapon.

i'm mean.   in life or dark (and life dark deck that i can't imagine what it will be)   don't have many card to CC   and this thing will be very hard to use (with very large cost and low status)

steal one time then die, i'm think it will be better than can't do anything but 1 dmg per turn and don't know when it die by your enemy CC.

ah...  waiting for other zodiac.    ^-^

Rat/Pig/Dog - Really Good additions to the game
Rest - Crap

I really like the Rat, solely because it's a Virus factory. Glad Tiger costs so much or it'd easily be too strong. Still very strong, of course, especially when considering buffs.

Wow.

Rat and shard of readiness means perfect one turn any creature kill. Sweet and unbalanced

Yes. One turn creature kill that costs 7 quanta to setup and can't start for 3 turns. If rat is OP, then Parasite/Bloodsucker must be godly.

My problem with rat actually is how similar it is to Parasite. Rat's strength over Parasite is that it generates things that can die, which works well with boneyard/bone wall/vulture.

More on topic, I like them. Non of them seems to be overpowered at first glance, and the theme is nice. Complete the set when you get the chance.
