MTG Ramblings Split Cards & Remixes
MTG Ramblings Split Cards & Remixes
Split cards, originally designed for 'Unglued 2' but appearing in the game during 'Invasion block', are an odd mechanic, as they aren't really a mechanic, but simply wo cards printed side by side on one physical card. They give players a choice on what to use there cards for, a better version of this would be the Spree mechanic from 'Outlaws of Thunder Junction'. They have had new mechanics of there own added to them thought the years, most notable the Fuse mechanic allowing both sides to be played at one, or the After math mechanic that allowed one half to be only cast from the Graveyard, and now becoming enchantments with the Rooms in Dustmourn. These are not what I want to talk about today, what I want to tank about is them not remixing the cards.
Each side of a split card is a card in and of itself, so reprints can happen and should happen, yes by todays standers the mechanic is slow but it still has the possibility of being used. The names of split cards are that of '_&_' or ' _to_', but whit what limited split cards we have there are still a few that can be put into this system. Take 'Failure' from 'Failure to Comply' & 'Market' from 'Farm to Market', combining them will have 'Failure to Market', while not as pithy as the former two still works, both mechanically & in color combination. Or have 'Hide' from 'Hide & Seek' and 'Run' from 'Hit & Run' to get 'Run & Hide', both are from multicolor card, one ally one enemy color on each side, but as a single wedge color the card can still work, is it vastly overcoated? Yes, but the possibilities is still there.
And that's not touching on any cards not in a split card that could be put into one, as long as it isn't overly wordy, I had thought of the Split card 'Flourish' from Flower & Flourish' and the lone card 'Thrive' to make 'Flourish & Thrive'.
The following card images are meant for Illustration purposes of my idea:

More landscapes, Collage has ben stressful.

More of me trying to get skin hi-lights and shadows right.
More Fanart of TheLoadingCrew's character Hana, I think with how often I do her in comparison to other characters I'm realizing I have a thing for Dark Elves.

Spicy fanart for @AxtionBastrd42's character "Ranrua from TheLoadingCrew's "Pathfinder: Rise of the Runelords" campaign.
Some fanart of TheLoadingCrew's character "Kabby/Kabriela"'s True Form from there "Pathfinder: Rise of the Runelords" campaign.
More in my 'Missing' Yugioh Fusion monsters, this time Union Support. The "Metalizzing Parasite"s are a strange case, with the both being high level low stat union monsters that have no support, why there isn't a archetype or support for just them is beyond me. Yes the Trap protection is kind of useless, but it fits the them of the other tow giving protection from Spells & Monster Effects.
Metallizing Paraisite – Eliptite
Lv 7/WATER/Aqua/Fusion/Union/Effect
1000/500
1 Union Monster + 1 Monster
Must be first Special Summoned by shuffling the above material from your Field or GY into your deck. One per turn, you can attach a Non-Light Non-Machine Union monster from your deck to a Monster you control that it can equip to, except this monster. Once per turn, you can either: Target 1 monster you control; equip this card to that target, OR: Unequip this card and Special Summon it. The equipped monster is unaffected by the effects of Trap Cards your opponent controls.
Alloy Beast Tpar
Lv 3/Light/Beast/Fusion
1000 ATK / 1000 DEF
1 Gemini Monster + 1 Monster
You may Normal summon an additional time each turn. While this card is on the Field you may not Special summon, except Normal and Gemini Monsters. When this is used for the Tribute summon of a Gemini Monster, that monster is now an effect monster and gains its effects.
Part of my 'Missing' Fusion monsters series, this time 1/2 of the Gemini Support. Meant to be low level for the Instant Fusion support and possibly tribune support for the Lv 5~7 Gemini monsters.
Some more ProtonJon related stuff, this time as obscure Pokemon characters. Lucahjin dressed as Hayley from My Pokemon Ranch, and RosaJon as Anna from Pokemon Battle Revolution.
