Chaos Liger (Because it's about time)

When I was first swarn in here, Aarikku told me about Chaos Liger and how an official version was never made. Now, as my final Create-A-Card post until my series starts up, I give you my prototype for Chaos Liger.

(Level Five) Chaos Liger (Dark)
Category: Demon · Beast
Effect: This card does not inflict Combat Damage to your opponent. If this card would normally deal Combat Damage, remove up to 3 monsters from your opponent's scrap pile and deal that many damage to him/her.
ATK/ 4000
DEF/ 4000
Aarikku

That's not quite what I said. Bryan made Chaos Liger in what I like to call 'First-Series Shmod'. It lasted until 'Second-Series Shmod', in which Mana was introduced, but he lost the card when I was making everything digital.

I'm not a fan of the Light/Dark thing - that's Yugioh's chaos.
Naardaas

Tantamount to the same thing. You got any problems with the other design aspects.
Aarikku

Not other than the fact that it's Bryan's favourite card, and considering I stole the game from him, the least I owe him is to keep it as he created it.

(5) Chaos Liger [Dark] All the Mana paid for this card must be done with Dark Mana. When this card is played, your opponent must discard 2 monster cards in his/her hand (if he/she has 1 or less, he/she doesn’t have to discard). 4000/4500
Naardaas

A very noble gesture dear Eric.

(Adult Male Voice) You're right, you do owe it to him to leave it as is if you plan on readding it.

(Adult Female Voice) I noticed you listed nothing for the category. Did you forget that, or is it like Egweena (no categorry at all).
Aarikku

Categories were added between Shmod #2 and Shmod #3 (virtualized).

I do like the Demon - Beast categories. I'll have to get working on a picture; I did the sketch for it not too long ago.
Naardaas

(Adult Male Voice) From there the card is pretty good, but even more difficult to play than my Bluude card.
Aarikku

Yeah. I might make the effect better to compensate. Something like:

When you play this card, your opponent must Scrap 2 cards from his/her hand. If (s)he has 1 or less, (s)he Scraps all of them.
Naardaas

Would the idea of Chaos Liger Support work out? And that did the card art look like?
Aarikku



It doesn't look too chaotic now, but it'll really be all about the background and aura.

Feel free to add some Chaos Liger support.
Naardaas

Not bad, Dragon-Infused Leric. I like the design. I could probably draw up a new Liger design, but you never did like my work very much.
Aarikku

It's not your drawings, it's the tools you have available. A tablet and Photoshop always - or at least almost-always - creates better work than a marker.

I notice you called my avatar by its true name; did you download the plugin?
Naardaas

Heh, I wish. Because of my bloody dial-up, downloading a plugin takes hours. I found it on DeviantArt.
Aarikku

Oh. Fair enough.
Naardaas

It's also why I've asked you for Lightning Dragon's stats twice now. Did you think I was just too lazy, or that I was trying to pester you?
Aarikku

The first one.

Now that you gave me a good reason, it's on Card Review.
Naardaas

Muchos gracias.
Aarikku



I screwed up on the mane. Alas. It's so nonthreatening  
Naardaas

(Bad Elvis Impersonation) Yo, it's got a bad afro. Uh-huh.
Aarikku

Yeah. *sigh*
Aarikku

I've messily redone Chaos Liger's head with an experimental style for hair:



I think it looks much better. Just noticed I accidentally cut out some of its stripes.
Naardaas

Uh, dude, why the Hell does a creature that fierce have a mullet?!

Let me try a hand at creating a Chaos Liger. I'll create something that doesn't look like a country music regect.
Aarikku

But my cards look better than yours. Photoshop > Markers.
Naardaas

You sketch templates first though. I could sketch a template and E-Mail it to you for you to colour as you wish.
Aarikku

No thanks. The colourshopping only turns out well because I can repeat my own drawing style; I doubt I can do yours.
Naardaas

Das fair. Just don't keep redesigning the creature until it's had every musician haircut in existence. My idea looks nothing like a human haircut.
Aarikku

In all fairness, a liger's natural 'haircut' looks kinda like an afro.
Naardaas

Das true as well. But you've switched to a mullet, and I'm worried it'll end up with a mohawk or something. A pompadour, however, would look kinda cool.
