Also, if you've voted please post about why. And don't forget to vote on the website as well. Runer5h 23:35, January 28, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h

Alchemist of Black Spells. Assuming it's like the other Alchemy cards in the TCG right now, it'll be interesting to see what it does. --Blue (Talk) 23:37, January 28, 2010 (UTC)

Alchemist of Black Spells

Voted for this, cause it sounds the newest and most interesting.--YamiWheeler 23:40, January 28, 2010 (UTC)

Do you think it's a new Dark Magician monster? Runer5h 23:41, January 28, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h

Nah, considering it's an "Alchemist", but it would be cool if it was a new Synchro Monster. Need moar Synchros.--YamiWheeler 23:42, January 28, 2010 (UTC)

Well... Dark Magician of Chaos, Magician of Black Chaos... it's a similar naming motif. Runer5h 23:44, January 28, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h

True, I mean, it IS possible, but I figured that if it was something to do with Dark Magician, they'd have named it Alchemist of Dark Magic or something, as opposed to going out of their way to keep it seperate. I don't know, though. If it is a DM Synchro, that'll be kick-ass.--YamiWheeler 23:48, January 28, 2010 (UTC)

Cactus Bouncer sounds pretty cool.--Helix-king 03:57, January 29, 2010 (UTC)

Konami agreed with us.

THE WINNER IS... ALCHEMIST OF BLACK SPELLS!

Level 4 - WIND - Spellcaster - ATK 1200 - DEF 1800

Effect

Once per turn, you can change this face-up Attack Position card you control to face-up Defense Position and place a Spell Counter on a face-up card you control that you can place a Spell Counter on.

1800 DEF wall, one spell counter a turn? I like this! Runer5h 20:25, January 29, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h

Not bad. I wonder what the other cards are like. --Blue (Talk) 20:45, January 29, 2010 (UTC)

Would be better if he was DARK... "Alchemist of Black Spells"? Liars!--Akiza Izayoi 00:14, January 30, 2010 (UTC)

By the way, Earthbound Linewalker is showing himself as well. A substitute for a Field Spell? Pretty good, but low stats and easy to destroy.--Akiza Izayoi 00:16, January 30, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I wondered about the attribute dissonance too...

As for Linewalker, I think his best EI is Chacu Challhua. With Challhua's lock, the low stats of Linewalker won't matter. Use stall cards like Stumbling and Level Limit - Area B, or even Spider Web - with a Field Spell and Linewalker on the field, EIs have half the vulnerability - and the field will be forced into DEF mode. Both the EI and Linewalker benefit from this. Runer5h 03:07, January 30, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h

Yeah, agreed. Although we both know there is a much better card to use over Linewalker...--Akiza Izayoi 04:15, January 30, 2010 (UTC)

A much more EXPENSIVE card.--Helix-king 12:23, January 30, 2010 (UTC)

Cactus Bouncer looks amazing! I call being the first one to make "Planti-Meta".--Akiza Izayoi 16:25, January 30, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, haha. It would go great with Black Garden, anyways. Your opponent's monsters will still have half-ATK, and even if they get rid of all of your other monsters, the lock is back up as soon as they summon something. Runer5h 17:46, January 30, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h

Exactly. Throw in a couple Burden of the Mighty, and you're good to go.--Akiza Izayoi 23:06, January 30, 2010 (UTC)

You wouldn't necessarily need Burden of the Mighty, even. Runer5h 23:16, January 30, 2010 (UTC)Runer5h
