Yu-Gi-Oh! » Custom Cards

DO NOT READ THIS ANYMORE! THIS IS'NT A DECK SPOTLIGHT, IT'S A ROCKET2 INSULTATHAON, AND I'VE CALLED THE MODS TO BAN HIM AT ONCE!

I know how to turn this Archetype into a Series

Street Shark Big Slammu

After you make that changes say "Let's hope that Christen will be here after he's done with something else!"

And fix up a lost cause? Christen57 is not a miracle worker.

https://www.duelingbook.com/deck?id=13473448[/quote:3e5bww7i]

UberTrainerMinusInfinity, it's time someone told you the truth, you are hopeless.

Since Deck Spotlight: PJ Masks back in Oct 28, 2022 the first time Christen57 helped you in the forum, you had not grown EVER! After Christen57 had probably fixed hundred of cards, for months, there are only two conclusions after everything I saw, you suck and you are taking advantage of people's kindness.

You and james123 have the gall of made it a recuring theme that Christen57 WILL fix Uber's lazy and pitiful joke of cards, and you took credit of it too, because remember these cards are still yours with your name under them. Its disgusted me.

You made so little or ZERO attempt to get good, nothing to make reader's lives easier by making your cards readable (in the context of yugioh), and most importantly, to show that when knowledgeable but generous people helped beginners, it was worth their time and effort (especially for MONTHS), knowing that they have helped others to get familiar & learned the insane complexity of yugioh.

Now at 891 public cards later (probably because the search results can get weird) , and nothing.

It's disappointing. Its frustrated me to see Christen57's helps were wasted. It annoyed me that with so much time put into making hundred of cards, you've done nothing to learn the rules, psct, etc. It angered me that james123 made it somewhat a public pressure that Christen57 is somehow obligated to help that wreck every time.

We are now at 46 archetypes threads and almost a thousand of failed cards! Are you and james123 both fucking out of your minds! Stop taking advantage and manipulating other people's generosity!

So, here's my turn to advise you, you lost cause.

CAN'T YOU READ!!! The 'lost cause' IS UberTrainerMinusInfinity, NOT you Jim!

But now you are here, there is something else I want to say to you. You can waste as much of your time as you wanted with that lost cause, but stop bringing up Christen57's so-called responsibility to serve that wreck every time! He has his own life.

Have you considered the fact that people can have fun doing things they're bad at. This feels like it should be about enjoyment, not responsibility, and you might have forgotten how enjoyable helping others can be.

Oh, great. This thread is now just a guttermouth convention. I'm calling the mods and making a new thread!

Not at all. I am having a blast criticizing 'experience' custom makers over the years. Even right now.

Do you even remember how few or any of my reviews were positive? I can't.

UberTrainerMinusInfinity can suck forever and that will put a smile to my face too. But I wanted to said something to him and james123 now before the recruiting theme of manipulation is back again.

Mods.....
Ban Rocket2 at once, please.

And afterwards, teach me how to delete posts with replies attached to them!
GOODBYE!

That crybaby of a wreck just PM me, and I want to show this to everyone so people can follow today story.

Congratulations, you effectively booted out one person from the community, because you just HAD TO yuck their yum

You really need to stop behaving like this.

You're almost as bad as CrystalMusic

Rocket2, I once said to you that your criticism is usually quite harsh. But this isn't criticizing anymore, this is just plain Insult, and probably also
borderline bullying. At this rate you're no better than Darwis.

Uber might not be the brightest when it comes to card design, but at the very least he's friendly toward other people an open to advice toward his cards (granted, he's probably too open I think). I might justify your action if he acted hostile toward other people, but here he just asked for a peaceful discussion.

If you thought that any of your advice falls on deaf ears, then it might be better to just mind your own business and help someone more receptive instead, especially if what they're doing is not harming other people. Otherwise you just look like a jerk.

God dammnit this is FutureGamer all over again.

Sometimes the truth hurts. But this talk does made me think of what you said earlier about ‘enjoyment in having fun being bad’ as I am writing this. So, here’s my follow-up to that again.

One person enjoyment to remain horrible does not justify to stop learning after getting help from others. It was ungrateful for that brat, who not only got lucky and was helped, to not keep the advises he had gotten over the months. His joy of remaining as a noob and took advantage of other’s generosity pissed me off. Although seeing that kid rebelled and cried to the admin to ban me was hilarious. Like that was my 1st talking with him, then boom, he cried & run away. Weak-minded kid can never handle the truth.

[quote="Renji Asuka":2mhui4jn]You really need to stop behaving like this.
You're almost as bad as CrystalMusic[/quote:2mhui4jn]
You had that backward, Renji. Deterring doesn’t always mean a bad thing.

Take for example if the game you bought is predatory or extreme buggy, you made your voice heard. Hopefully prevent some potential buyers of becoming suckers, while screaming to the developer/publisher to knock it off. In that analogy, the buyers are the readers/players, and the developer/publisher is Uber.

Not once (or very rarely) has any of my review/help been soft or encouraging. All those ‘experience’ custom card failures much like any ameteur will need to make a choice, either continue being terrible for the rest of their miserable lives, or get good.

The time heavily invested in the game should ONLY result in improvement. When people spent thousand of hours in doing their hobby, job, etc, these folks are expected to get better, NOT squander their time and opportunity. By that point, they are just lost cause.

Its about time somebody told him his harsh reality. He, very much like CM, had made the conscious decision to remain as a hopeless failure, and wanted to be treated as such.

Correction, its CrystalMusic and parhelia_0000 all over again. I had spend time pointing out Futuregamer's (or tst12041, his alter) individual card mistakes, but nothing to lost cause like Uber, CM, and parhelia.

Remember KT, I had admit to bully openly in the forum. Similar with parhelia_0000, long before the forum active users last year boot him out when they finally realized what a retarded person he truly is, I'd already know that just based on his cards alone. And from what I saw with that crybaby done over the months with Christen57's fruitless attempt to help him, the message was very clear to me. That infant is a manipulative ungrateful selfish little brat.

Yup....everyone's right. Rocket2 does'nt deserve to be on this website any longer. Mods, ban him at once, he is violating Rules 1 and 3 of this Forum! Until he's dealt with, I'm not going to touch this forum any longer.

...And even if he goes, those comments have ruined my public image on this website. I hate to say this, but thanks to Rocket2, I am forced to end my career as a duelist early. Do you know anywhere else to use Custom Cards on?

We got another parhelia_000. What happened to your goodbye thread, crybaby. Ready to make a 2nd one.

Hey baby, now you are seeing this, I want to ask you directly, why are you such a selfish manipulator who ignored everything Christen57 had done to help you over the months?

Don't you feel bad that you did not grow at all?

What is so appealing of being a mediocre?

Don't you feel like you are disappointing him after making almost a thousand cards?

Don't you feel shameful to cry the instant someone told you your hash reality?

Don't you and both james123 feel cruel into thinking that Christen57 will fix all of your 891 cards?

Don't you feel embarrassed of your inability to learn after practicing this much?

Don't you feel pathetic into believing your untainted public image is that important?

Don't you feel like a coward in choosing to run away?

Why do you always let grow-up fixing your issues?

Do you believed you have some make-believe career in making custom cards?

Do you believed you are some kind of a prodigy?

Did you ever took the time to read yugioh cards & rules at all?

Why do you chose to write so much when you can't even read yet?

Don't you ever get tried of manipulating others?

Who inflate your ego into believing you do not need to read any rules or retain any advises at all?

Do you ever understood what advises and psct corrections people had helped you with?

Were you aware that people like greg503 already know you are terrible at your job?

Did the thought never cross to your tiny head that maybe whatever so-called public image you had believed was a falsehood?

Do you only accept positive and suck-up feedback?

Haven't you thought of repaying Christen57 helps by learning the game?

Haven't you thought of doing the same thing as what Christen57 did by eventually some day helped others in understand psct, rulings, rules, etc like what he done to you?

Haven't you ever stop thinking about yourself and maybe instead of boasting how 'skillful' you are by posting almost a thousand cards, you actually stop to help others by understanding the game?

Well, I hope as you grow up you'll realize how little it matters that someone on the internet hates you/what you do. Anything will have someone who doesn't like it, so do what you enjoy.

The point is, you need to chill out. The fact you were bragging about a person wanting to quit the site because of your own actions is problematic. I'm trying to help you by telling you that you need to chill out before you do end up getting punished.

He's right. The moderators will get you, Rocket2, and I'm not affected by the insults deeply, since I know what to do when seeing something like this!

Guess it's my turn now to give my thoughts on this situation.

I think Rocket2 and UberTrainerMinusInfinity handled this poorly and are both in the wrong.

Rocket2,

while I fully understand your frustrations and appreciate you standing up for me, it was too early for you to jump to the conclusion that Uber's a "hopeless lost cause". Before jumping to such a conclusion, you should've tried getting more information as to why specifically he was never improving all this time, and tried coming up with a different strategy for helping him improve if what I've been doing all these months wasn't working.

For example, I was starting to think of maybe just having a documentation all of his custom card mistakes (Using apostrophes ' when he meant to use quotation marks " and not capitalizing words he should always be capitalizing such as Deck/Special Summoned/Tribute/Tributed, etc) so they're all listed in one place and easy to find. That way, he could just go back and look at that compilation of his past mistakes to make sure he isn't repeating any of them with each new archetype of his, instead of having to search for and go back to a previous thread where I pointed out the mistake(s) in question, as said thread would just be lost on this forum where he wouldn't be able to find it, recall it, and remember it.

Also, KTeknis is right. What started as you criticizing immediately turned in you just making personal attacks:

after everything I saw, you suck

UberTrainerMinusInfinity can suck forever and that will put a smile to my face too

That crybaby of a wreck

Weak-minded kid

That infant is a manipulative ungrateful selfish little brat

:lol: We got another parhelia_000. What happened to your goodbye thread, crybaby. Ready to make a 2nd one.

Hey baby, now you are seeing this, I want to ask you directly

What is so appealing of being a mediocre?

Don't you feel like a coward in choosing to run away?

Why do you chose to write so much when you can't even read yet?

Who inflate your ego into believing you do not need to read any rules or retain any advises at all?

Were you aware that people like greg503 already know you are terrible at your job?

None of this is genuine criticism anymore. It's straight-up name-calling, taunting, and insults.

Why do you need to say he sucks when that term clearly has a very negative connotation to it? Why couldn't you just say he really needs to step it up, learn PSCT, and stop taking so long to do so?

Why do you need to bring up Parhelia? Why are you comparing those two to each other. Parhelia had completely separate issues. Parhelia's issue was mainly his customs being intentionally overpowered and him being too stubborn and unreceptive to much feedback, while Uber's issue was just his customs consistently lacking proper grammar / PSCT, and bullet points to read, as well as Uber relying a bit too much on others and their feedback instead of trying to learn from past feedback so he can be able to fix his customs' issues himself.

Why do you assume Uber finds it "appealing" being mediocre and that he "can't read"?

Why are you acting like greg503 is on your side when he made it clear here that he isn't?

Uber,

Before I say how you were in the wrong, I will say: if you're truly leaving Duelingbook at this time, it was overall fun reviewing your archetypes. I wouldn't have reviewed that many of them if I wasn't getting at least some enjoyment out of it.

Also, know that it wasn't just me helping you this whole time. You were also helping me, probably just as much.

You see, a very important life skill needed, in order to review customs effectively and spot even small grammar / PSCT mistakes that other reviewers would likely overlook, is attention to detail. A very important life skill also needed, to correct such mistakes in the best way possible along with other balancing mistakes, is problem-solving. [url:1bh4n07w]https://www.hipeople.io/blog/8-common-traits-of-detail-oriented-people[/url:1bh4n07w]
[url:1bh4n07w]https://www.indeed.com/career-advice/career-development/attention-to-detail[/url:1bh4n07w]
[url:1bh4n07w]https://www.zippia.com/advice/attention-to-detail/[/url:1bh4n07w]

I've been developing and honing these skills since I was a kid, but REALLY honing them since I started reviewing customs back in 2020, and have continued honing these skills reviewing your cards, analyzing your texts word for word, and spotting the slightest error(s) to correct.

Earlier this year (March - July) I was working for a corporation full-time which was why I had to take that multi-month break from this forum that I took. In that corporation, I had to very often rely on my detail-orientation and analytical skills I had built from doing things just like this — analyzing customs for mistakes.

One of my main roles in the corporation was to go through hundreds, if not thousands, of data entries to make sure every entry was up to date and didn't have even a single spelling, grammar, or other mistake. Then I'd make a note of any such mistake(s) I did find to send to upper management for correction. Some of the notes I made were things like:

[list:1bh4n07w][*:1bh4n07w]This entry's serial number is listed as 1111122222333344444, however, it's missing an extra 3, so it should instead be 11111222223333344444 with five 3s instead of only four 3s, just like how the other numbers 1, 2, and 4 in this serial number are each written as 5 numbers.[/*:m:1bh4n07w]
[*:1bh4n07w]This model number is listed as FS0VUTZELH, however, the third character in this model number — the character after the S — is a zero when it should instead be a capital letter O.[/*:m:1bh4n07w]
[*:1bh4n07w]This identification number is listed as .1234567, however, there should not be a decimal / period at the beginning of it — it should instead just be 1234567 without that decimal / period.[/*:m:1bh4n07w]
[*:1bh4n07w]This device should be removed from the database as it no longer exists — it was recently removed from service and is now scheduled to be scrapped / disposed.[/*:m:1bh4n07w]
[*:1bh4n07w]This entry should be added to the database as it's for a recently installed device.[/*:m:1bh4n07w]
[*:1bh4n07w]This device's location is listed as Building #3, Floor #6, Room #11, Cabinet #2, however, this is slightly incorrect, as the Cabinet #2 containing this device was recently moved to the 7th floor's 11th room of Building #3, so the location should be instead listed as Building #3, Floor #7, Room #11, Cabinet #2.[/*:m:1bh4n07w]
[*:1bh4n07w]This device's location is listed as Building #5, Floor #1, Cabinet #3, however, Building #5 was recently shut down, so the location of this device needs to be reviewed and updated so the most recent building it was moved to is the one this device is listed in.[/*:m:1bh4n07w][/list:u:1bh4n07w]

It was specifically activities such as me casually reviewing your customs on this forum, with a keen eye for such detail, that helped me hone this detail-orientation skill that would later on help me perfectly fulfill my role at the corporation.

To this day, I still continue to hone and rely on that skill, when I do things such as update my résumé to correct minor spelling / grammar mistakes I had overlooked for months, and even now as I write this post, paying close attention to any spelling or grammar mistakes I can easily miss initially when writing such long posts.

So thank you for being a member of the custom card community for so long and giving me yet another fun way to develop and hone both that skill, as well as my communication skills when I had to communicate to you as clearly and concisely as I could how to fix each and every single one of those PSCT and custom card mistakes.

Also thank you for helping James improve his custom card making / reviewing skills as well, because when users like you share customs and I point out the mistakes, James sees what I look for and learns himself what mistakes to look out for when he makes / reviews customs himself, so he and other users also get a better idea of how to word cards.

That being said,

Rocket2, despite being hostile, unprofessional, and disrespectful in this thread, did raise a valid concern. It doesn't make much sense for you to be repeatedly making the exact same PSCT and grammar mistakes at this point that you've been making literally since I started reviewing your customs, unless you have a very good reason for that.

What could the situation be? Do you simply not have time to practice studying / remembering PSCT and proper wording, and to learn from past PSCT / grammar mistakes so you could implement those changes on your own without relying on myself or James? Is your schedule in real life schedule too busy to allow you to do so? Is there something you have that's either physically or directly hindering your ability to do so? Do you struggle with finding the appropriate resources needed to learn and study these things? Do you need a different approach to this, such as taking notes of previous PSCT / grammar mistakes so you can easily and quickly go back to them so you can remember not to repeat them when making future archetypes?
Rocket2 seems to think this issue is all because you're "manipulative" and whatnot, but if that's not the case, you should say so and make it clear what the case really is.

You also should not be publicly calling for anyone on this forum to get banned. If someone is doing something ban-worthy, you either message a moderator / admin privately about it or (preferably) report them using the Report Abuse page: [url:1bh4n07w]https://forum.duelingbook.com/posting.php?mode=post&f=7[/url:1bh4n07w]

Even if Rocket2 is dealt with by the moderators, it is quite clear that his threatening messages have ruined my public image on this site. As such, I am offically stepping down as a duelist to look for a new career. The message is quite clear....I am a child.

is also inaccurate. Rocket2's messages didn't specifically threaten harm against you. That would certainly result in a ban for him. Your image also isn't ruined. He may have... damaged it, but not ruined it...

and right now, you, and only you, know if you're a "child" or not. Not myself, Rocket2, or anyone else in this thread. I'm sure Rocket2 only meant to suggest you were being childish, not that you were actually a child. Like, you're really going to completely give up on this community, on custom cards in general, and on the platform as a whole just because of ONE guy in ONE thread? I can understand leaving if multiple people were ganging up on you and being toxic / hostile / hateful, or if there was no other easy way to deal with the harassment / abuse, but you don't have to take what he's saying this seriously at the moment.

There was also very little need for you to PM me over a dozen times this past year asking for either a duel or some more custom card feedback, especially after I already told you I'd get to it when I found the time and energy.

Anyways, once again, if you're leaving, the least I can do is give you one last custom review, like a sort of parting gift.

Street Shark Big Slammu's effect can be shortened from:
Unaffected by your opponent's card effects during the Battle Phase. If a ''Shark'' or a ''Great White'' monster attacks a Defence Position monster, inflict piercing battle damage. When this is summoned, you can set 1 Spell/Trap card those card text mentions ''Shark'' or ''Great White'' from your hand/GY, also you can activate it this turn. After a ''Shark'' or ''Great White'' monster attacks, place a Shark Slam Counter on this card. Your opponent's monsters lose 100 ATK/DEF for each Shark Slam Counter on this card.

When this is Summoned: You can Set 1 Spell/Trap that has "Shark" or "Great White" in its text from your hand/GY, and if it is a Trap or Quick-Play Spell, it can be activated this turn.

[*:1bh4n07w]You need to use the actual quotation mark by holding the SHIFT key on the keyboard then pressing the quotation mark key.

[*:1bh4n07w]The proper way to word "Spell/Trap card those card text mentions ''Shark'' or ''Great White'' from your hand/GY" is "Spell/Trap that has "Shark" or "Great White" in its text from your hand/GY".

[*:1bh4n07w]An effect that sets a specific archetype of "spell/trap" and allows it to be activated that same turn needs to specify that it only allows that for traps / quick-play spells. Look at the wordings of The Dark Magicians and Raidraptor - Wise Strix to get an idea of this[/*:m:1bh4n07w]
[*:1bh4n07w]This next suggestion is a personal preference thing than an actual error, but I think it's fine for now if the counter placing effect triggers upon any attack declaration instead of just Shark and Great White monsters'. Also having the effect place the counter "each time" the attack is declared instead of "after" makes the effect less confusing, as "after" could mean after the end of the damage step or after the initial attack declaration but once the damage step or something is entered[/*:m:1bh4n07w][/list:u:1bh4n07w]

Street Shark Jab's effect can be shortened from:
Unaffected by your opponent's card effects during the Battle Phase. Your ''Shark'' and ''Great White'' monsters cannot be destroyed during your turn. When this is summoned, if you have no monsters in your Extra Deck, you may target any number of ''Shark'' or ''Great White'' monsters in your GY: Special Summon them, also until the end of this turn, their original ATK becomes 1900. Whenever your opponent summons a monster with 2500 or more ATK while you control 2 or more Fish monsters, they must discard 1 card. If they cannot, all ''Shark'' and ''Great White'' monsters you control gain 1000 ATK/DEF.

[list:1bh4n07w][*:1bh4n07w]The second effect needs to apply only to monsters on the field.

Street Shark Ripster's effect can be shortened from:
Unaffected by your opponent's card effects during the Battle Phase. Your ''Shark'' and ''Great White'' monsters can attack regardless of effects on the field. When this is summoned, and at the start of each turn: Place a Leadership counter on this card. Your ''Shark'' and ''Great White'' monsters gain 100 ATK/DEF for each Leadership Counter on this card. If a Trap effect that would destroy a Fish monster you control is activated; (Quick Effect) You can remove 2 Leadership Counters from this card: Negate the activation.
to:
Unaffected by your opponent's effects during the Battle Phase. Your "Shark" and "Great White" monsters can attack directly. When this card is Summoned, and during each Standby Phase: Place 1 Shark Slam Counter on this card. Your monsters gain 100 ATK/DEF for each Shark Slam Counter on this card. When a card or effect is activated that would destroy a card(s) (Quick Effect): You can remove 2 Shark Slam Counters from your field; negate the activation.

[list:1bh4n07w][*:1bh4n07w]The term "Regardless of effects on the field" is too confusing and would lead to ruling issues. Recommend changing that to another simple bonus like direct attacking or something[/*:m:1bh4n07w]

Street Shark Streex's effect can be simplified from:
Unaffected by your opponent's card effects during the Battle Phase. The effects of your ''Shark'' and ''Great White'' cards cannot be negated. When this is summoned: You can add 1 ''Shark'' or ''Great White'' card, or 1 card those card text mentions ''Shark'' or ''Great White'', from your deck to your hand, then if you added a level 4 or lower monster this way, you may discard 1 card, except the card you added this way: Special Summon that monster, but it cannot be used as material. You can only activate this effect once per turn. After this destroys a monster by battle: You may return any number of ''Shark'' or ''Great White'' monsters you control to your hand, then Special Summon them from the hand if able.
to:
Unaffected by your opponent's effects during the Battle Phase. The card and effect activations and effects of your other cards cannot be negated. You can only use each of these effects of "Street Shark Streex" once per turn.
● When this card is Summoned: You can add 1 "Shark" or "Great White" card, or 1 card that has "Shark" or "Great White" in its text, from your Deck to your hand, then if you added a Level 4 or lower monster this way, you can discard 1 card except the added card, and if you do, Special Summon the added card, but it cannot be used as Fusion, Synchro, Xyz, or Link Material.
● If this card destroys a monster by battle: Target any number of "Shark" and/or "Great White" monsters you control; return them to the hand, then you can Special Summon "Shark" and/or "Great White" monsters from it up to the number that left the field.

[list:1bh4n07w][*:1bh4n07w]I'm currently not sure if my suggested change to the second effect is the best way to word such an effect, but it's definitely better than the original wording where it isn't clear if it also protects its own effect, including that very protecting effect itself, from negation[/*:m:1bh4n07w]
[*:1bh4n07w]Both the other activated effects should be hard once per turn, especially that last effect since it might otherwise lead to some obscure loop where you return it to the hand then re-summon it over and over, attacking again and again, unless that's what you want...[/*:m:1bh4n07w]
[*:1bh4n07w]A hard once per turn clause needs to include the name of the card itself, so you say "You can only use this effect of "Street Shark Streex" once per turn," not just "You can only use this effect once per turn"[/*:m:1bh4n07w][/list:u:1bh4n07w]

Street Shark Feeding Frenzy's effect can be shortened from:
You can Ritual Summon this card with "Gene Slam". After this attacks a monster, all other ''Shark'' and ''Great White'' monsters you control can attack an additional time this turn. You can only activate this effect once per turn. Once per turn, when your opponent activates an effect; (Quick Effect) You can shuffle 1 ''Shark'' or ''Great White'' monster from your GY into your deck: Negate the activation. If a ''Shark'' or ''Great White'' monster, except this card, would be destroyed, you can instead half this card's ATK/DEF.

You can Ritual Summon this card with "Gene Slam". Your other monsters can make a second attack during each Battle Phase. Once per turn, when your opponent activates a card or effect that does not include a card destroying effect (Quick Effect): You can shuffle 1 "Shark" or "Great White" monster from your GY into the Deck; negate the activation. If another monster(s) on the field would be destroyed, you can make this card lose exactly 2000 ATK or DEF instead.

[list:1bh4n07w][*:1bh4n07w]There's no need to make the effect that gives extra attacks "activate"[/*:m:1bh4n07w]
[*:1bh4n07w]Not a good idea to halve ATK/DEF every time you wish to prevent destruction, as that makes the new ATK and DEF tedious to re-calculate because you have to keep re-calculating half of 2 separate values instead of just a reduction in 1[/*:m:1bh4n07w][/list:u:1bh4n07w]

Gene Slam's effect can be shortened from:
This card can be used to Ritual Summon any Fish or Aqua Ritual Monster. You must also Tribute monsters from your hand or field whose total Levels equal or exceed the Level of the Ritual Monster you Ritual Summon. You can banish this card and 1 ''Street Shark Feeding Frenzy'' from your GY: Special Summon 1 Fish Ritual monster from your hand/deck/GY, except, unless it is from the GY, ''Street Shark Feeding Frenzy'', ignoring the summoning conditions.
to:
This card is used to Ritual Summon any WATER Fish Ritual Monster. You must also Tribute monsters from your hand or field whose total Levels equal or exceed the Level of the Ritual Monster you Ritual Summon. You can banish this card and 1 "Shark" or "Great White" monster from your GY; Special Summon 1 WATER Fish Ritual Monster from your hand/Deck/GY. (This is treated as a Ritual Summon.)

This archetype neither has nor runs any Aqua rituals so unless you maybe have some separate archetype with such monsters that also uses this spell, you can remove the Aqua part. I also don't know why it can't just simply treat the special summon from the hand/deck/graveyard as a ritual summon

Shark Bite's effect should be shortened from:
If you control a ''Shark'' or ''Great White'' monster, target 1 card on the field: destroy it, then activate one of the following effects:
● Destroy all face-up Spell/Trap cards your opponent controls.
● Target 1 monster on the field: Destroy it.
● Banish the card you destroyed.
to:
If you control a "Shark" or "Great White" monster: Target 1 card; destroy it, then banish it or destroy 1 additional card on the field.

You don't activate an effect while a current effect is still in the middle of resolving. You apply such an additional effects. Also, when activating an effect that simply targets cards on the field for destruction, you don't actually need to specific that the target must be on the field. As an example, Enishi, Shien's Chancellor simply says to target a face-up monster and destroy it without specifying that that target has to be on the field.

Sharkfight's effect should be nerfed from:
Special Summon 1 level 4 or lower ''Shark'' or ''Great White'' monster from your hand/deck/GY, and if you do, all Fish monsters you control gain 500 ATK until the end of this turn. This cannot be negated if your GY contains ''Gene Slam''. You can only activate 1 ''Sharkfight'' per turn.
to:
If you have no cards in your Extra Deck: Special Summon 1 Level 4 "Shark" monster or 1 "Great White" from your hand/Deck/GY, and if you do, all Fish monsters you currently control gain 500 ATK until the end of this turn. You can only activate 1 "Sharkfight" per turn.

since it's currently a possibly abusable 1-card rank 4 since you could summon Buzzsaw Shark with this, activate that monster's effect to fetch another level 4 fish from the deck, and have access to rank 4s all without using your normal summon. It's like Speedroid Terrortop all over again.
Also, the negate-proofing on this card isn't necessary since Street Shark Streex already has that covered.

Sharkbait's effect can be simplified from:
Target 1 ''Shark'' or ''Great White'' card, or 1 card those card text mentions ''Shark'' or ''Great White'', in your GY: Either add it to your hand, or apply the following effect based on it's card type:
● Monster: Special Summon it.
● Spell/Trap: Set it on your field, also you can activate it this turn.
Then, if you chose ''Street Shark Feeding Frenzy'' this way, you may target a second ''Shark'' or ''Great White'' card in your GY, except ''Street Shark Feeding Frenzy''. You can only activate 1 ''Sharkbait'' per turn.
to:
Target 1 "Shark" or "Great White" card, and/or 1 card that has "Shark" or "Great White" in its text, in your GY, but if you target 2 cards this way, at least 1 of them must be "Street Shark Feeding Frenzy"; apply this effect on each target based on its card type, also after that, if this card targeted "Street Shark Feeding Frenzy" at activation, Set this card face-down instead of sending it to the GY.
● Monster: Add it to your hand or Special Summon it.
● Spell/Trap: Add it to your hand or Set it to your field. That Set card can be activated this turn if it is a Trap or Quick-Play Spell.
You can only activate 1 ''Sharkbait'' per turn.

Recommend deleting Sharkstorm if or after implementing the above changes, since Street Shark Ripster and Street Shark Feeding Frenzy both cover negation making a third negate unnecessary.

while I fully understand your frustrations and appreciate you standing up for me, it was too early for you to jump to the conclusion that Uber's a "hopeless lost cause". [/quote:2kj8yum9]
Its almost been a year since the first day you’d helped him. Draw a timeline to realize how long and many cards & archetypes he had posted, and see just how many of your advice enter one ear and out the other.

Before jumping to such a conclusion, you should've tried getting more information as to why specifically he was never improving all this time

You want us to listen to his excuses?! Alright, I will entertain you. Although he will be AFK for a bit, I will still give the kid 240 hours (10 days) for him to answer for himself, starting at the time of this post. That should be plenty of time for him to come up with something, so that we can get to the bottom of this. Delaying too long is not ideal, because my opinion of him will only get worse, and your new time-consuming tactics to help him will only end up as a flop again.

Also, KTeknis is right. What started as you criticizing immediately turned in you just making personal attacks:

[quote:2kj8yum9]after everything I saw, you suck

UberTrainerMinusInfinity can suck forever and that will put a smile to my face too

That crybaby of a wreck

Weak-minded kid

That infant is a manipulative ungrateful selfish little brat

:lol: We got another parhelia_000. What happened to your goodbye thread, crybaby. Ready to make a 2nd one.

Hey baby, now you are seeing this, I want to ask you directly

What is so appealing of being a mediocre?

Don't you feel like a coward in choosing to run away?

Why do you chose to write so much when you can't even read yet?

Who inflate your ego into believing you do not need to read any rules or retain any advises at all?

Were you aware that people like greg503 already know you are terrible at your job?

None of this is genuine criticism anymore. It's straight-up name-calling, taunting, and insults.[/quote:2kj8yum9]
You think (sarcasm).

Why do you need to say he sucks when that term clearly has a very negative connotation to it?

I always do that. I keep on using the words fail, bad, you suck, etc.

, and tried coming up with a different strategy for helping him improve if what I've been doing all these months wasn't working.

Why couldn't you just say he really needs to step it up, learn PSCT, and stop taking so long to do so?

And experience months of fruitless attempts like you? No thank you.

Why do you need to bring up Parhelia? Why are you comparing those two to each other. Parhelia had completely separate issues. Parhelia's issue was mainly his customs being intentionally overpowered and him being too stubborn and unreceptive to much feedback, while Uber's issue was just his customs consistently lacking proper grammar / PSCT, and bullet points to read, as well as Uber relying a bit too much on others and their feedback instead of trying to learn from past feedback so he can be able to fix his customs' issues himself.

parhelia_0000 is his own unique headaches. So is Uber. I'd bought up parhelia to correct KTeknis’s comment earlier in that I had actually pointed out and corrected Futuregamer's (tst12041's) mistakes, but never once to parhelia, like what I did now with Uber. So, the similarity is closer to that, especially the 1st time I'd criticized them was not on their first custom thread.

Why do you assume Uber finds it "appealing" being mediocre and that he "can't read"?

Why are you acting like greg503 is on your side when he made it clear here that he isn't?

What?! greg503 is on NO ONE side. I will answer these 2 questions in 1. greg503 did raised an interesting point in that Uber actually enjoyed being bad at what he does. And if so, then Uber is having fun being a mediocre, and find it appealing to remain as an illiterate.

I want that kid to realize that people also know he suck and still got a long way to go. However, no one got the heart to tell the kid the truth, until now.
____________________________

Now that I had answered all of your questions, there is only 1 thing left to do. Since Uber had labeled me as a foe, he might have missed this post. So, could you please send Uber both a Forum PM and Main Page PM about the 240 hours deadline?

And Uber! I hope you are reading this! Don’t think of the deadline as a respond to my taunts. Think of it as a way to publicly express and explain to Christen57 on why you had disregarded everything he had advise you, why you are not a manipulator, etc.

I admit I haven't been paying attention to how much I've been trying to help him until you brought it up. I've just been doing it for so long without thinking about that.

However, the reason I suggest seeking a bit more information first to begin with is because I believe, in this situation, that we should assume ignorance before assuming malice. I can't deny, at this point, the possibility you've proposed that he's being manipulative / lazy, but right now, he could just as likely have some major learning disability or disorder genuinely keeping him from learning and implementing PSCT and grammar, doesn't have english as his primary language, or have one of those very busy personal life schedules that leave him with no time to learn PSCT.

So sure, if he gives no legitimate explanation for this, then we'll have no choice but to assume malice and laziness, in which case I will drastically reduce the amount of custom card feedback I give him, at once.

I should've been more clear as to what I meant when I said this. I don't mean that either of us has to directly help him. I meant giving him different ways for him to help himself, and then backing off and leaving him alone to observe whether or not he implements them and improves.

Hold on. Are you referring to greg503's post saying this?
[list:vz7hkosh][*:vz7hkosh]Have you considered the fact that people can have fun doing things they're bad at. This feels like it should be about enjoyment, not responsibility, and you might have forgotten how enjoyable helping others can be.[/*:m:vz7hkosh][/list:u:vz7hkosh]

Because I thought what greg503 meant here was simply that Uber enjoys making and sharing customs despite not yet being good at it, not that Uber enjoys being specifically bad at making and sharing customs.

Now that I had answered all of your questions, there is only 1 thing left to do. Since Uber had labeled me as a foe, he might have missed this post. So, could you please send Uber both a Forum PM and Main Page PM about the 240 hours deadline?

I'm new to this "foe" thing. Could you remind me again how it works? Is it the same as blocking someone where it stops show you their posts?

Also, he already saw my post asking him to explain himself — the part where I said:

It doesn't make sense for you to be repeatedly making the exact same PSCT and grammar mistakes at this point that you've been making literally since I started reviewing your customs, unless you have a very good reason.

What could the situation be? Do you simply not have time to practice studying / remembering PSCT and proper wording, and to learn from past PSCT / grammar mistakes so you could implement those changes on your own without relying on myself or James? Is your schedule in real life schedule too busy to allow you to do so? Is there something you have that's either physically or directly hindering your ability to do so? Do you struggle with finding the appropriate resources needed to learn and study these things? Do you need a different approach to this, such as taking notes of previous PSCT / grammar mistakes so you can easily and quickly go back to them so you can remember not to repeat them when making future archetypes?
Rocket2 seems to think this issue is all because you're "manipulative" and whatnot, but if that's not the case, you should say so and make it clear what the case really is.

You're overreacting again, Uber. You've done no real "harm" on this forum; and a mistake as minor as failing to use proper PSCT doesn't warrant something as extreme as a ban. We just want you to know that I can't keep reviewing customs forever. I'm in my 20s looking for work. It's only a matter of time 'till I find it, and I currently don't know if, when I do find it, I'll once again have to take another very long break from duelingbook.

I still want to help you while you and I are still available, but I need to you to really start helping yourself and learning to do so.

Give a man fish, you feed him for a day. Teach that man to fish, you feed him for the rest of his life.

What you are about to read are my findings ranging over the months of what I saw and said about UberTrainerMinusInfinity are the truth. However, these 3 part posts are also my confession.

So, let me start by apologizing to Christen57 and everyone.

I’m sorry that in order for you and everyone to finally realize the truth, I need to bring this to light.
I’m sorry for tricking you and everyone to make my plan work.
And lastly, I’m sorry of what may happen to your belief in helping others from now on.

_________________________________________________________________________

Now, where to begin? I supposed it should at the time when I took a long break after that parhelia incident. It was more than a year later that I came back to check the forum to read (thoroughly) what have been going on. Since I am a custom card maker, I read what Christen57 have been posted to Uber over the months, and when I read them, I questioned myself if I have read them correctly. However, no matter how much I kept on reading them, it always lead to the same conclusion: Uber is abusing Christen57.

After some thought and months have passed, I’d finally decided to talk with Christen57 about my concern. At that time I didn’t provide any screenshots of my claims, so it was understandable why he didn’t believed what I’d told him. However, I just wasn’t sure of what to do next, because there wasn’t enough evidence.

Then, on that very same day, Christen57 told everyone in the forum he will be inactive because of work.



So, I was relieved for the time being, but it won’t last long. I know what I saw.

In order to convince Christen57 and everyone,
I need to gather more evidence.
I need to bring this up to light.
I need to catch Uber in the act.
I need …a trap.

Although…… that was a few months ago, I just wasn’t that good in formulating a good trap. But one day, it finally dawned on me. It should be known by now in the community that I am a rude and loudmouth bully. That is perfectly understandable. My way of helping (most) people to get good in yugioh was a very harsh and tough approach. Something like a stereotype mean coach in fictional stories. So, I start working on my plan.

(As weeks go by)

The day finally arrived when Christen57 returned back to the community, and Uber got the news.



Whether I was right or wrong about Uber, or him successfully fool everyone again, there was no turning back now. I was willing to risk leaving the community forever in shame. And so, once I saw Uber’s latest custom thread, I set my trap.

I fully agree with Rocket2 on this topic.

And KTeknis and company, stop comparing me as a bad person, you (or yours) is just a useless VENT! I'm better than you (and yours) at creating customs cards.

And anyway, I tend to emphasize, UberTrainer does not draw and is not an artist.

While tst12041 is nothing more than a Futuregamer Alt Account, I've noticed from his behaviors and the cards he creates.


End the story

Christen57, the issue is not Uber being bad at making cards and need to study. The issue is he is taking advantage of your knowledge, attention, patience, and generosity for his own selfish need!

Remember, when you’d announced that you will be inactive from the forum because of your job, he still disregarded and disrespected that by sending his PMs about his archetypes. Why? Because that will lead you to fix his cards like so many before. Even right now with your “parting gift” and his “Take your time, now. I won’t push you any further.”, he had you under his grasp.



However, there is something he didn’t took into account. He didn’t predicted you would show everyone that “forum inbox & chat” screenshots which is 1 proof he is a selfish disrespectful manipulative attention seeker, and is only thinking of himself.




So, I would like to ask you, and think really hard and careful,

- What else did he sent to you that might suggest what I been seeing all this time about him is true?
- What else did he chat with you that might suggest what I been saying all this time about him is true?

If there is anything else that might suggest he is manipulative, selfish, disrespectful, lying, ungrateful, or narcissistic person, please do post the screenshots here.

Christen57, your contributions to the community cannot be deny. Even to this day I still used your bookmarklets and some of your guides from time to time. You had helped review my cards in the past too, so it frustrated me to no end to see what has been going on for months now.

Please realize the truth! I do not wish to see you being abused by him any longer.[/quote:15qwire4]
Enough of the Drama Rocket2! Leave UberTrainer alone! UberTrainer isn't triyng to force Christen to be his teacher okay?

Yes, that's true! Christen57 just decided to improve the first one, not because I asked him! Good heck, why hasn't the moderators even noticed this yet, even though I've tried calling them multiple times? At this point, Rocket2's presence is breaking almost every single rule this Forum has to offer!
MODERATORS, WHERE ARE YOU? WE HAVE A CYBER BULLY IN THE HOUSE!!!

...... Words at wind......

What the hell happened here?

...Long story short: Dueling Book user Rocket2 stops being a Dueling Book user, turns into a cyberbully, pointed out I was using Christen57 for my own personal gain, made me so mad/sad that I briefly got PTSD from Dueling Book, and then left the server for good. And he didn't even get banned for his behaviour.
....Why hasn't anyone locked this again?

Man, Rocket2 really does live rent free in your head.

Well, since it is nearly a year since this horrible event happened....I'd like to point out how poorly the moderators responded to this.
I called them over to fix the problem, and what do they do? NOTHING!!! Even when Rocket2 sweared and cyberbullied me to the point I nearly cried in real life, to the point I gained PTSD from this, they didn't come.
AND THEY DID'NT EVEN PUNISH HIM IN THE END!
Most forum staff would respond to such a problem quickly. But these? It's almost if there aren't any at all.
So....screw this. I'm looking for a Dueling Simulator that has a far better care of it's forum than this!

Man, I am sorry for you. I never expected Rocket2 being this harsh. Hope you are doing alright. Even though I've seen Rocket as a friend, this attitude always caught me by surprise. He was always harsh but fair, re-reading this thread left me in a bit of shock, to say the least.

I'm so glad that my request to be banned from DuelingBook FINALLY became reality after what, 2 years of waiting? But I digress.

I honestly feel bad for custom card creators who want to create cards at the same level of metagame. It's come to a point where all custom card reviewers want to do is to insult the card creators directly for wanting to make custom cards at the level of tier 1/0 meta. It's either you make cards that are loser-tier GOAT level, or people will call you out for making your custom cards "broken, OP, makes PePe and SPYRAL look like a joke, etc."

In any case, Rocket2, I hope you're keeping an eye on this thread, and if so, I have my piece of advice for you.

I know you probably won't listen to me anymore considering how all you like to do is to insult the creators instead of listening to reason, but just stop. Seriously, just stop. It is clear that you have no intentions of allowing anyone with metagame-level custom cards to have fun on the DuelingBook server, and attack people just for the sake of triggering drama on a platform that's supposed to be fun.

Why do I say this? Simple. Whenever someone posts an archetype that is deemed way too overpowered, all you do is call them "CrystalMusic" clones and when others try to explain with reason that their archetypes are designed with the modern meta in mind, all you do is resort to derogatory insults, without giving a care for the world if you're giving the rest of the custom card reviewers a bad name. Then, when custom cards don't get nerfed your way, you decide to drag on the drama, ruining the fun for the rest of the folks here who just want to create custom cards the way they want to envision it.

With the way things are going, you'll only be driving more prospective custom card creators away from this platform if you keep this up. It doesn't matter if one's custom card archetype is deemed "overpowered" by today's meta standards, if you refuse to allow people to be respectful towards the original archetype lore, if you refuse to allow people to be creatively expressive with their custom cards, then you are no better than those who are ruining the custom card format for the rest of us such as CrystalMusic or AromaGirl.

But of course, my guess is you probably won't listen to my advice to reason. Hell, knowing you, you'll probably just hurl another set of insults towards me anyway. But deep down, I know you know that you're insulting people just to gain attention and clout, which I won't feed any longer.

Whether or not you decide to follow my advice is your prerogative, Rocket2, but I've said my piece. I won't be responding to any further replies because you're just not worth my time or energy anymore.

Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran...
...cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of fate.
This visage, no mere veneer of vanity.
...is a vestige of the vox populi,
now vacant, vanished.
However, this valorous visitation
of a bygone vexation stands vivified...
...and has vowed to vanquish these venal
and virulent vermin vanguarding vice...
...and vouchsafing the violently vicious
and voracious violation of volition.
The only verdict is vengeance,
a vendetta...
...held as a votive not in vain,
for tha value and veracity of such...
...shall one day vindicate the vigilant
and the virtuous.
Verily, this vichyssoise of verbiage
veers most verbose.

Isn't it about time we all moved on from Rocket2 and CrystalMusic? Those guys have quit the duelingbook forum over a year ago. There's no point in continuing to hold a grudge against either of them, nor is there any reason for the moderators to go after them anymore. As for Aromagirl, he/she has only ever participated in this forum 6 times, all of which being in 2019.

Also, like I said, you don't get PTSD from bullying alone. You get it from failing to stand up to said bully.

Renji Asuka is right. You guys really are letting irrelevant people live rent-free in your heads at this point.

I cannot believe I forgot about CrystalMusic

Though, I do miss them partaking in the forum, it was kind of fun arguing with them.
