Naardaas

Thank you very much Aarikku. I appreciate my Naardaas finally making it here. However, I'm pretty sure we changed its level down to six (although if you changed it back that's fair).

The card is very costly, I'll admit. However, its effect of beating any monster by 2000 means it'll never die in battle. In addition, Nightmare Blood can add Spell/Trap Immunity to it, which you might be able to use that turn because it charges your other monsters. Lastly, a Pairogeist or 2 can make this faster, and the Shrodinger's Blood - Revival Stone Combo costs 1 less total plus gives you free cards.

The card alone I shall give 3/5 due to being immortal in battle and completely evilly powerful. With Nightmare Blood plus other cards to make it faster, it can be a 4/5 or even 4.5/5

Mwu-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

I think Level 7 is fine - it does have seven heads. For 12 Mana (this and Nightmare Blood), you've got yourself invincibility. However, 12 Mana should be enough to end the game, not set up a combo broken fairly easily with Immunity Breaker or Whirlwind.

On its own, it's a monster that plain will not die by battle. However, that's ALL it does. 7 - Hell, even 6 - is a lot of Mana. It's enough to fuse Ultimate Element from the FIELD. Naardaas' incarnation is helped by the fact that Shmod doesn't have a lot of instant-destruction cards, but it really seems like little more than a flashy victory.

I admit, dump + revive might make this card a bit too strong. I may need to add more restrictions.

Naga deck: 4/5 (a Naga deck is way too inefficient to actually be any sort of a competitor as long as Frogs, Virtuals and Elements exist)
Standard deck: 3/5 (Naardaas is too slow, unless you can God-hand your way into a dump + revive combo)
Naardaas

For now it is inefficient, but if I can add some of the cards Marcel will use in the series, it'll be somewhat faster.
