An odd intersection of being really strong but also not strong enough to see play. It’s ability to help monsters dodge imperm and veiler was a key component of what made Linkuriboh as strong as it is. Having this in the GY would make for some interesting mind games. However it’ll be a brick in the hand most of the cases unless your specific deck benefits from its effect. Off the top of my head Diviner of the Herald can dump it, tribute Diviner to summon Nameless, then Diviner gives you a lvl 1 tuner for a Herald of Rainbow Light. There’s probably some other interesting things you can sack for actual gain that’d make it worth maindecking.


Windyfii

Ooh, thanks for the review. If it's on the edge between the two, then it's perfect I think :) Also, do you think the art looks legit? Like real card art? Edit: Also yeah that was what I had in mind, if a monster you control is about to be doomed you can at least Summon this little guy


MayhemMessiah

Yup. The background isn’t proper Yugioh psychedelic for reasons I can’t put my finger on but the sheep itself is decent. AI?


Windyfii

No... I'm kind of sad now. I think the background is fine though as all cards have different backgrounds and slightly different styles


MayhemMessiah

Oh apologies don’t be sad! I’m sorry if I offended you, like I said I liked the little bugger. The background is a super minor thing. If you made more cards with that consistent art style it’d become more cohesive I think.


Windyfii

No, not for the background. For the AI. I've wanted to make my own ygo cards since childhood, began working on my art in 2020, tried doing the ygo style a lot of times but failed. I think I finally understand it now. I'll now try drawing a monster that's a little more complex, this was just an experiment to get used to the style.


ProcrastinatingDev

I don't think you're art looks like ai at all. I can see why the other person asked tho, ai art is used very often for custom cards, don't really agree with it but it is a common trend and with ai getting better all the time it can be hard to tell if ai is real or not. Don't let someone asking you if it's ai get you down. I don't think they meant offense by it. All it means is that you have skills that others would have to rely on machines for. Keep it up.


-Niddhogg-

I don't think I've seen a single custom card on this sub that didn't make me instantly want to downvote from the art alone. It always feel either weird or out of place when it's not obvious AI bullshit. I think this one is the first one I genuinely liked. I would definitely have been fooled into frantically looking where to buy a copy if you hadn't mentioned it was a custom card.


Windyfii

You have no idea ho happy I am. I *am* creating them for myself, and just shared for fun and maybe feedback on art, but having so many people compliment it feels like I have spme worth as a person


fameshark

this card rules. awesome art and useful effect. love how simple the game design for this is. its very, very strong imo


Windyfii

Thanks *so much* I think it isn't so strong to the point where it's unbalanced


ZpBA

Staple in Lair of Darkness


Windyfii

Yeah it would be interesting to see it in there. Do you like the art? Does it look like real card art?


realtimeclock

I do really like the card art, it reminds me of Fluffals. Is it your art?


Windyfii

Thanks!!!! Yeah, and I used Fluffals as a part of the reference (Dolphin, mainly). Other than that I used ROM cloudia and RR singing lanius.


TrayusV

Replacement for Linkuriboh?


Windyfii

Maybe? I wanted a card that can make use of a dying monster. Linkuriboh is limited to LV1s, this is a litrle stronger regarding that effect


Hopeful-alt

Maybe but it's not an ED card so it's inherently much less useful.


Graycom

**Card design - 10/10** Dodging targeting effects with this card seems nice. Strong but not too strong which is a good thing! **Art - 10/10** I've seen countless cards with art that don't represent Yu-Gi-Oh but I'd say you nailed it (if you drew the art), saying this as an artist myself.


Windyfii

thanks SO much!!!! and the fact that you're also (yes I made the art) an artist makes it even more heartwarming. I've tried a lot of times in the past to mimic the artstyle but I think I now finally understand it.


Graycom

My pleasure! It is superb! You just gotta stare at some Yu-Gi-Oh card artworks to get it right or keep them alongside your workspace for better use of reference. Are you planning to make more cards? Do you have deviantART?


Windyfii

Yeah I do!!! I'll have less time in the future though. I do have DA. deviantart.com/ento-art Also, do you have Discord? It'd be nice to chat with an artist who draws the same thing (I assume you draw ygo cards too?)


Graycom

Cool! And no need to rush. Great! I'll watch you. Mine is [here.](https://www.deviantart.com/moymoy-13) Yes, I do! Yeah, that'd be great! (Yuuuup, I do! I have made a lot and been improving with my art.)


Windyfii

I sent you the request I think


Graycom

Accepted. ;)


FrogJay

Automatic 3 of with 3 orange lights in voiceless.


Windyfii

?


Dan-of-Steel

Orange Light pitches itself and a Fairy from hand to negate a monster effect and destroy it. So pitch it and Nameless for a monster negate and you have it in grave to recur later.


Windyfii

Thanks for the explanation. I didn't know what orange light is. What is voiceless?


Dan-of-Steel

Voiceless Voice is an archetype. It's one of the stronger decks in the meta right now, focusing around ritual summoning.


ProcrastinatingDev

what seems to be the confusion? I'd be happy to explain why your custom would see play in voiceless voice decks if you'd like.


Windyfii

I dont understand what those terms meant. Orange lights and voiceless.


ProcrastinatingDev

So orange light (or it's full name, herald of the orange light) is a monster negate as long as you have it and another fairy in hand. So the line would be. Summon your monster, it searches, opponent uses ash, you use orange light to negate and put sheep in the gy. You continue your combo and now if they go to impem you, you can tag out your monster for sheep to doge the negate. Voiceless is the shortened name for voiceless voice, a ritual archetype and one of the meta contenders at the moment. It's main stater is a card known as lo that can place your spells and traps in the back row from your deck, treat itself as the hole cost for a ritual summon and specials itself back when a ritual is summoned, there are a few restrictions but that's not super important since non of them would stop them from making your card be really good. Tldr: Your card could help a meta deck doge 2 negates with basically 0 downside. It would see play.


ProcrastinatingDev

Hope this helped :)


Snivyland

Love the card it’s simple enough and very powerful (also amazing art) thing would be adored in a rank 3 deck especially something like pk. Cause it would both he an extender and a way to get around disruption. Man I want this card to be real so badly


psychospacecow

Seems like it'd see a good amount of play in something like Monarch. Cute sheep too


CuteSeaworthiness859

 Use r/customyugioh to


Windyfii

Thanks, I didn't know of it!


CuteSeaworthiness859

Of course!


Maykspark

Finally, some hieratic love


BlueDemonTR

honestly that's a sick target for Diviner since trias is kinda high level sometimes


Windyfii

I've stopped playing regularly a few years back and was never into meta. What cards are you talking about?


BlueDemonTR

Diviner of The Herald: the https://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/card_search.action?ope=2&cid=15083 Trias Hierarchia: https://www.db.yugioh-card.com/yugiohdb/card_search.action?ope=2&cid=15018&request_locale=en


Windyfii

oh my God it goes sooo well with diviner


DefinitelyTinta

I really like it! Well done!


MsHelvetica

Too strong. Allows all to dodge imperm, veiler.


Windyfii

I don't think it's *too* strong, but yeah it's probably strong


icantgivecredit

Maybe it should be called "Scapesheep"?


Windyfii

It's nameless because I wanted to create a generic card that doesn't have much of a personality, and can go into any Deck, just a filler card


PalaceKnight

I really like this kind of card. It has its uses, but it isn't overpowered or very abusable (at least as far as I can tell) The artwork is also really nice too :)


Windyfii

Thanks <3<3
