Making a map?

If you want to be able to make a map like mine, then this post is for you! This is only for the lines of the map (the rest is all PhotoShop), by the way.

First, get a piece of paper. Try not to get a small one, because you won't have any room for the land! Then, you'll need something small that you have a lot of, like dice. Then, you grab a bunch of your dice (or whatever you have - maybe pasta or dried beans?) and roll them onto your piece of paper. Next, just draw around them. Don't be exact, though. Do a little curve somewhere and make another bit bigger or smaller, so that it looks a little more like how you want it.

Then, pick a place on your map (for example, the center of a big island), and roll more dice there. Of course, you may want to remove the dice from the previos bit before you do that! Then, just keep on doing that around your first one or on any other islands (remove the dice first, though!) until the bits of land are filled with seperated places.

Next is the hardest part, naming them and making them places! You could add a few little trees to show that the place is a jungle or a forest, or maybe some triangles for mountains. This part is also the most fun to do, I think. Once you've done that, you're pretty much done. You can colour it (or use your laptop or computer) if you want, or you could just leave it as it is.

I hope that this has been helpful to anybody who was unsure as to how they could make an amazing map (like mine!). If you want to watch some Genso TCG videos, go to my YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA)! Or, for any news, you could check out my FaceBook (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799).

And, of course, if you want to get some cards you could go to my Shop (https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game)!

Making Utopia

Ah, so we come to making Utopia. Well, even though I have been making it already (how else would it have an awesome history?), this is a different kind of 'making' it. No more words, because I've mostly got that part done. Now is for the creating of a beautiful paradise where my monsters will call home. By that, I mean designing it!


That is a picture of the new map. I still need to add place names and different icons to show what a place is (for example, a forest or a city), but I'm happy with the shape of the land. After the map is done, I want to make some really cool looking places. For example, the Wizor Tower. Then, I'll make the Shadow Utopia versions! I'll make pictures of battles and loads of stuff! It will be like a real place - with a map, locations and history. Most pictures that I make for Utopia are probably going to be of epic battle scenes, with monsters charging into battle and fighting!

However, I still need to finish the map. It isn't all bad, though, because it's fun to make stuff for Utopia. I'm even making a Utopian language! But it may be a little bit advanced for now, since I only have a little bit finished. 'Hello' is 'chimai' and 'bye' is 'abong'. Two very needed words. I also have 'karuki', which means 'cool'!

Maybe this has given you some ideas as to what you could do. You don't even have to make a realm, you can just play! I prefer to make places, lands and awesome stories to go with my deck, which is how I came up with the realm idea! You could make a Water and Earth (or maybe Fight) realm called Antlantis, for example. You could name your realm New York if you wanted to! That might be a cool idea, actually... It could be like a paralel dimension or something!

Don't forget to check out my YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA) for videos about Genso, FaceBook for (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799) any news on this card game, DeviantArt (http://aero460.deviantart.com) for any art that I make for Utopia and cards, and my Shop (https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game) if you want some cards! Abong!

Friends and foes

This post will be about my friends and foes in the possible Genso comic. My sister will be part of the group and her signiture monster will be Clouy. Her elements will be Air and Ghost, just like real life. In the comic, she'll want to collect all the cutest cards! Another character will be my friend Andreas, who'll want to find out more about the technology which everyone uses to battle. He hopes to one day invent something which will work even better than the system that everyone uses. He'll have a Fire and Fight deck.

Another one of my friends is Chris; he'll have a Metal and Ghost deck. I'm not too ure as to what his goal will be yet, but I'll think of something before I make the comic.

As for my foes, I'd like the main protagonist to be from the future. He (for some unknown reason) wants to defeat me in battle. Again, I don't quite have his story yet, but I know that he'll be from the future! I could make a group of thugs who steal cards from players. It would be quite cool to face of against their leader, who'll basically be the same as all other crime bosses. Other than that, it'll all be battles against random people. That's the main point of it really, battles!

What do you think? Do you have any cool ideas for another friend or foe? Let me know below, or you could message me on FaceBook (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799). If you want to see more card game stuff, you can watch some videos on my YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA). Or, you could get some of your own cards at the Genso Shop (https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game), and make your own legendary battles!

A comic?

In this post, I want to ask you how you would feel about a Genso comic. The main character would be me and my signiture monster will be Wizor. I'll have a few friends (for now you don't need to know them), a few enemies and a lot of battles!

The story will be quite simple; I want to be the best player. Just like everyone else, right?!
So, I go to tornaments and challenge everyone. My friends will help me, whilst having their own stuff to do, and I'll have a few enemies! There will be a little device which shows you holograms of monsters (it'll be kind of like a VR headset, but smaller and easier to walk around with). So, I'll be able to walk around with my Wizor, which I'll obviously do. The only thing that I'm unsure on is where the cards will go during a battle.

I need to design something simple and lightweight... I sort of have an idea, but I'll talk more about that in another post. What do you think? Would you like a comic like this? Or would you maybe prefer it if I made a comic about Utopia? I think that it'd be cooler to make a comic in the first way; it will be fun to draw myself in my own comic world of Genso!

You can go to my FaceBook for any news (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799), my YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA) for some videos about my card game, or the Genso TCG Shop (https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game) where you can get some cards!

X Combo cards (W.I.P)

Yeah, this post is going to be about some test stuff for X Combo cards! I know that I already did this, but this post will have pics of some test versions! So, the X Combo cards...

As you can see, they're in the old style template. That's because I find it easier to draw, and for now I just want to test their gameplay. They won't have an element (so if you have the correct monsters, you can summon it), and the cards that you use to make it will be called Material.

This one, Pop Corn Elf, needs Pyro Elf and Corn Elf .These will be part of a test archetype that I'm thinking of making. They'll basically have loads of X Combos, which I can't wait to try! You'll probably see these cards and the X Combos properly near Gen 3, because I want to make the Pet cards first. These X Combo cards are going to make a crazy new way of playing this game!

So, what do you think of how they'll (sort of) look? And what about the Elf archetype? I really like them, and I'll probably use them one day. You can check out my FaceBook (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799) for more Genso stuff, or my YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA) for some videos on this TCG or my Shop (https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game), where you can get some Booster Packs!

Until the next post, good bye :)


Best battles

For this post, I want to ask you what your best battle ever is. It can be from any game, like Yugioh, Pokemon, Magic, Vanguard, or any other game. Just comment below the best battle you've ever had. My best battle was probably from Genso (I've played it and barely anything else for nearly 3 years), and I was versing my little sister. I had Grass and Ghost, while she had Air and Fire. Sometimes, you get lucky. And that day my sister was very lucky. Whenever I did something, she stopped it. And whenever she did something, it was really powerful and I just had to watch as my Health went down pretty fast.

Then, I drew a card called Mushboom (Mushboom has the same ability as Bomba). She was so scared to attack it that she didn't do anything for a few turns. Whilst that was going on, I was summoning weak monsters to chip away at her big ones. Even though they all got destroyed, Mushboom wasn't touched - and neither was my Health.

After a while, she attacked Mushboom, destroying everything. Then, on my turn, I used a card called Zombie (it allowed you to return a monster from any Dead Pile to your field), and brought back her best monster. I used it to eventually beat her, because it was so strong that she couldn't destroy it!
And that was it. She got really lucky and nearly won, but the luck changed and I just managed to win. It may not have been really easy, but it really was epic! Have you played a battle better than that? Let me know below!

You can check out my YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA) where I make awesome videos for my TCG, or my FaceBook (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799) where I'll keep you updated on any news. Or, you could check out my Shop (https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game).

I'll see you soon!

Talura

This post is going to be about Talura, my little sisters realm. The monsters in Talura are of the Air and Ghost element and it's a peaceful place. The Air and Ghost monsters live on a huge cloud and they all work together to keep Talura nice and safe - however, it was once a war zone, full of chaos and death. Talura was once a realm of Air monsters only, until the dead came back to life. They claimed that since they were there many millenia ago, the land belonged to them. However, the Air monsters did not agree with this. So, a war had began. It was the mighty power of Air against the never dying armies of the undead.

For thousands of years, the Talurans (both new and old) battled. Until one day, one of the eldest leaders of the Ghost warriors put forward the idea that, since they were going nowhere with fighting, they should consider joining forces with the new inhabitants of Talura. Luckily for them all, the Air leaders were glad to accept these new undying warriors into their army and they now live together peacefully for the greater good.

However, a new army has been trying to take their land recently - and they are known as the Utopians!

What do you think of Talura? I like the idea of the dead monsters coming back to life, only to realise that there are new monsters living on their land! I also like the idea that they now work together to keep Talura theirs. However, the Utopians will take Talura and make it Utopia 2!

Why not check out my YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA) if you want to see videos about the Genso TCG, or you could follow me on FaceBook (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799), where I'll keep you updated on any news.

See you in the next post!


Cards and stuff

As you may have already guessed, this post is going to be about some of my cards - and stuff. What I mean by that is a few cards (for example, Wizor) and a bit about them. So, first is my favourite card, Wizor. Wizor isn't the greatest card in the game, but I love it! To me, it's kind of like Pikachu to Pokemon. Wizor is like the mascot of Genso, I guess. Even though it isn't every where you look, it'll be the main character in a comic that I want to make sometime in the future.

Well, sort of. I'll be the main character, but Wizor will be my trademark card. The inspiration for Wizor is a little bit crazy, so be prepared! So, I used to have an app called Geometry Dash, and the character I used was similar to Shy Guy from Mario. It was just a cube with a Shy Guy mask. That was it. However, I had the colours that you see on Wizor today in the game! Wizor is basically a weird version of Shy Guy! So, that's how I got my inspiration for Wizor.

Another card that I want to talk about is Jackoo. I really like Jackoo, even though it isn't game changing. The thing is, Jackoo was once orange instead of purple! It looked kind of weird, so I changed it to purple. I think that it's much better now! I loved the idea of a pumpkin with souls bursting out of it, it just seemed so cool! Jackoo was actually the 8th monster I made, can you guess which one was the first?

You can comment below which one you think ;)
Another one is Bouldilo. The inspiration for this card was an armadillo - I love Bouldilo, but he looks nothing like one! It took me ages to draw it and it only ended up looking sort of like what it was supposed to. However, even though I never got it perfect, I still made the best armadillo I've ever done. And that's why I like him.

Another one that was hard was Makit. Drawing hands isn't my strong point, so why I decided to try and make a hand monster I don't know. But, I actually think that I did really well!
Heck, it's better that just a circle!

Anyway, what do you think? What monsters would you like me to talk about next? Let me know below! Or, you could message me on FaceBook instead (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799).

Future ideas

For this post, I wanted to talk about some of the ideas that I have for the future of Genso. For example, new kinds of cards and elements. I'm making 2 new elements for Generation 2, Ice and Electric! They're really cool, and I found out how to draw some really cool dragons! I also found a cool way of making people, so I've got 2 people in the Fight element coming up. I was thinking about other elements for the far future, like maybe Light and Dark. However, I think that Dark may be too much like Ghost to be its own element.

I've made some Pet cards for Generation 2, too. They basically partner up with any monster. They're weak, but they don't take up a monster slot, because they're with the monster! They're like baby versions of monsters and when you put them with their bigger version (like if Wiz was partnered with Wizor), they get a bonus. Because the Pets can't be attacked, they don't have a Defence or Life stat. I'm making quite a few, so be ready for them!

I have a few other ideas like that (lets call them Special monster cards, because they're not like normal monsters). Another idea for Special monster cards are the X Combos. Basically, you'll be able to mix 2 monsters together to make a cooler one! You need an X card to fuse them, and the actuall X card will need to be in your Special Deck. This will probably be something which I'll introduce in Gen 3.

One X Combo card idea I have is a mix of Volky and Roky! Another thing that I want to do in the future is competitons - where you guys can make your own monsters and I'll pick the best looking ones. It'd be so cool to do that! And also archetypes are something that I have plans for. I'm thinking Gen 3, because they'll go well with X Combos.

And there are all the (possible) ideas I have for the game so far. What do you think of them? Do you have any ideas which you think could work awesome in Genso? Why not let me know? You can comment below, or you could message me on FaceBook (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799).

Why not check out my YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA), where I'll keep you guys updated on what I'm doing, too. You could get a Booster Pack from my Shop (https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game) if you want to help me out . I want to make this the best TCG ever, and I need your help!

Thanks for reading!

Another few Magic and Equip

I'm going to be showing you another bunch of Magic and Equip cards today; this will be the last post on them. So, if you don't see all of them here, you'll have to wait until you get one of them!

 


Here we have Ancient Text, Slots, Moon Energy and Sun Energy. Ancient text allows you to return 2 cards from your own (or your opponents!) Dead Pile to your hand. It's really good if you just destroyed one of your opponents really powerful monsters, or if they just used a really good Magic or Equip card, so I'd take 2.

Slots is a bit of a risky card because you have to flip a coin; if it's heads you draw 5 cards, but if it is tails then your opponent draws 5 cards. The reason that this is good is because you can use it when you're about to lose - and it could save you if you get heads. I'd probably still only take one, though.
Moon Energy is a great card if you have Ghost monsters. It gives all Ghost monsters on your field 20 Defence for 2 turns. It may not be for long, but it's long enough to do something. I won't take any, because I don't use Ghost cards. Sun Energy is similar, but it gives 20 Attack to all Fire monsters on your field for 3 turns. A really good card, but only for anyone with a Fire deck.

  


For the Equip cards, we have Double The Size, Half The Size, Element Swap and Iron Hand. Double The Size doubles the stats of the equipped monster for 2 turns (which is super useful!), whereas Half The Size halves an enemy monsters' stats permenantly. Both are actually very good, but I'd only take one of each.

Element Swap is obvious, it swaps the element of a monster! This is good when cards like Sun Energy are in use. I won't take any, because I like my elements! Last is Iron Man (Hand), which gives the equipped monster another 20 Attack. Again, an awesome card. I'd take one, because I like to attack!

And that is the last of what I'll show you of the Magic and Equip cards (there are still another 10 of each, which I'll leave as a mystery). Maybe this has helped you to pick what sort of cards you want in your deck. I like an even mix of everything, but you could pick anything that works with you.

If you want to get a Booster Pack which contains a whopping 18 cards, you can check out the Genso Shop page (https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game), you can follow me on FaceBook to see any news that I may have (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799). Or, if you'd prefer to watch me talk about this awesome TCG, then why not subscribe to my YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA)?

I'll post again soon!

More Magic and Equip

Hi again, guys! I'm going to show some more of the Magic and Equip cards in this post, so let's start with some Magic cards!
 

So, here we have Star Power, Monster Swap and Back-Up. Star Power is like 1-Up, but the exact opposite... Your enemy loses 50 Health! I'd probably take just one Star Power, because I like to attack my opponent  more than anything else. Monster Swap is great when you have a weak monster and your opponent has a strong one. You simply swap your monsters and you've got the best card. I'd again only take one of these, but it is really useful. Back-Up is super great, because it allows you to summon 2 monsters! You could use Back-Up and then discard them to summon a Hero monster! I'd probably take 2 of these.
 

These Equip cards are Cure, Poison and Boom. Cure can stop the equipped monster from getting Burned or Poisoned. It also clears your monster of Poison and Burn if it already had them! It is seriously useful against a Fire or Poison deck, but not so much against any other elements. So, I'd only take one. Poison basically does the opposite. You equip it to an enemy monster and they become Poisoned. Simple and effective, so I'd be sure to take one (maybe even 2).

Last is Boom. Great for killing big numbers! When the equipped monster is destroyed, all monsters are destroyed. It has saved me many times, so I know that I'd take at least 2!

And they're all the ones that I'm going to show you for now, because I like leaving a little bit of mystery... Want to see what other ones there are? You can get a Booster Pack from the Genso Shop (https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game) and get some of your own! Or, you could watch me open a pack on my YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA) and see what I get. You can follow me on FaceBook (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799) to keep up with any Genso news.
See you in the next post ;)

An update on Utopia

It's been a while since I did a post on Utopia, hasn't it? So, I'm just going to tell you what other things I've made in this time (or stuff that's been changed).

As for the story of how Utopia came to be the pretty dangerous place it now is (thanks to Shadow Utopia), there isn't much news. I want to create some kind of campaign about a war between them in the future, but for now I'm just making the history. What I have done is thought about Shadow Utopia! It will be a place full of evil and darkness. The fact that it rains lava is a concern for them, but the fact that they all want to destroy each other is an even bigger problem!
It really is a nasty place to be. However, it's like a mirror land. Anything that happens in Utopia happens in Shadow Utopia. The only difference is the monsters. They think in their own way, but end up doing the same thing some how. No matter how differently they think! The cool twist is that they look the same as the normal Utopians. Why is that cool, I hear you ask. Well, remember when Tachi went into Shadow Utopia? He didn't come back out...

The Shadow Quil had been working on a portal to another land (so that he could destroy it), and the portal that the normal Quil had made linked to the Shadow one. As I said, they unintentionly do the same thing.

Skipping ahead a little while, Tachi went into Shadow Utopia. And, (story change!) at the same time, the Shadow Tachi went into the normal Utopia! The sun hurt his eyes, but once he got into shade, he eventually got used to the pain. Because he went straight into the shade, he was well hidden from the other Utopians (who didn't see him). Once he was okay with the light, he went back into Shadow Utopia to tell Shadow Quil everything that he had seen and experienced.

In the mean time, the Shadow Utopians had locked the normal Tachi in a cage - and he couldn't escape. Quil had the genius idea to send Shadow Tachi back into Utopia to pose as the normal Tachi!
That's all the crazyness I've got for now, but I'll definetly need to thik up some more exciting stuff to happen! What do you think will happen? You can comment below, I'd love to know what you think! If you want to help me out, you can follow me on FaceBook (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799), or subscribe to my channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA), or you could get a Booster Pack from the Genso Shop page (https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game) to show me that you like it.

But for now, this Utopian is out (again)!

Some Magic and Equip

Well, now all that's left to show you are the Magic and Equip cards (and a few sneak peeks at some Generation 2 cards). There are 20 of each - and they are what you need to support your monsters and help you out. I won't be able to show you all of them, but I'll do as many as I can.




First up are a few of my favourite Magic cards, Reborn, Helping Hand and Stop. 1-up gives some Health, so that you have more chance of winning, Helping Hand is great when you have no hand cards and Stop is amazing if you need another turn. In my  perfect deck, I'd probably take 2 or 3 1-ups (they're super useful), 3 Reborns (you just need them when you lose a powerful monster!) and probably only 1 Stop, because even though it's very useful, I have other cards which I'll need to take!
 

Here are 3 great Equip cards: Mystic Power, Transform and Sickness. Sometimes, you need a monster with the ability Mystic, but only a few cards in the game have it. You just need to equip Mystic Power to a monster, and done!
Transform is great if an enemy has a powerful monster and you only have a few weak monsters. All of your monsters become the enemy monster for 2 turns, which is long enough to set your opponent back a bit.

Lastly is Sickness. I thought that it would be great if a monster could get weaker if the owner of it had loads of cards in their hand, and it is! I'd take 2 Mystic Powers, 2 Transforms and probably only one Sickness. Even though it's really good, I can only see myself needing one of them.
What do you think of these cards? They really are game changing!

To get them, you can go to the Genso Shop (https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game), or, if you want to see me opening my own pack, go to my YouTube and check out the video (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA). If you want to keep up with any news, you can follow me on FaceBook (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799) , too.
Thanks for reading!

Fight and Water

These are the last 2 elements I have to show you guys! After this post, you'll have seen every monster there is (including a few Generation 2 monsters). The only thing you don't know about them is their stats, but I'll leave that as a mystery. However, you still haven't seen the Magic and Equip cards, but I'll make sure that you see some of them as well.




As you can see, there are quite a few cool monsters here. You've got Makit, Wynor, Fynn and quite a few other ones which I really like. These elements don't really have any bonus working together, but they do with other elements (like Fight and Earth, or Fire and Water). The thing is, you can take any 2 elements you want and make your deck great. The elements were originally only there to seperate monsters. All you have to do is see which monsters you like the most!

And don't forget that Generation 2 is coming soon (with loads of new cards), so you'll have even more to choose from. Speaking of Generation 2, who wants a peek at a few new Fight and Water cards?



I hope that after these posts you've got an idea on what monsters you like and which elements you want to have. I might show of some more Generation 2 stuff soon ;)


If you want to get a Booster Pack (which has 18 cards by the way), you can go to the Genso Shop (https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game) - or visit my YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA), or my FaceBook (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799) if you simply want to see more. And that's it guys, see you!

The monsters in Fire and Earth

I'm back again with all the monsters available to you in a Fire and Earth deck!









These two elements are good together because of how they are. For example, some Fire monsters have the ability Burn. Which works well if you have another monster on the field with a high Defence. And Earth monsters have a great Defence! The enemy monster slowly dies as your Earth monsters take a little bit of damage.

Then, you sacrifice your nearly dead Earth monsters to summon an even greater Hero monster, capable of finishing the job. You may have a problem against monsters with Fly, though... But who doesn't? Monsters with Solid and Mystic, like Roky  (an Earth Veteran monster) or Pearly (an Earth Hero monster).


Plus, Gem is great when trying to slow down your enemy! Before I finish up, I'll show you some monsters to come ;)


And that is all for these two elements. They work great together with this strategy, don't they? Metal would probably work well with Fire, too.

 If you want to get some of these monsters, why don't you get a Booster Pack from the Genso shop page (https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game), or you can go to my YouTube for more things about Genso (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA).

You can also follow me on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799)! Which elements do you like? Let me know below! See you soon!

Air and Poison

Today we have all the cards that you can take in an Air and Poison deck (I was going to do Water, but I decided that Poison may work better with Air).



These elements are good together for many reasons, but the main one is their elemental advantages. Air beats Poison, which may sound like a bad idea for deck combo. However, you've got to think of it like this...



Your cards aren't going to attack each other, are they? So, you don't have any reason not to take them together. And, if your opponent has an Earth monster, you'll have some Poison monsters to back up your Air monsters (who are weak to Earth monsters). You see? It works out great! This is the same for a Fire and Water deck, or a Fight and Metal deck. Or any elements that are strong (or weak) together. And, I'll also reveal some Generation 2 monsters for you...






I hope that this was a good post, I like showing you guys what cards you can use ;D

Maybe I'll do a Fire and Earth combo next... Anyway, you can see more of Genso on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA) or on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100019918095799).

Metal and Ghost

So, as promised, I will show you all the monsters that you can take in a Metal and Ghost deck...



As you can see, there are quite a few Metal monsters. This is because Metal is so commonly used. This is great because you can have a great mix of monsters, whether it's for strength purposes or elemental ones. The Ghost element doesn't have as many monsters, because they're not all that easy to be mixed.

However, that makes them a great partner for Metal. Since Ghost don't have a problem when it comes to any elemental advantages, they can be pretty good if you have a lot of mixed Metal monsters.
I actually think that Ghost has some of my favourite characters; aside from Wizor and Island Beast, I really do love most of them. I mean, Jackoo, Skelly and Ecto are awesome!
Don't forget that these aren't the only monsters that will be available either; I'm making Generation 2, and I've got quite a few awesome Ghost and Metal monsters in the pipeline ;)



And that's it - all the Ghost and Metal cards so far! Maybe next I'll do a post on all the Air and Water monsters... If you like these monsters, why not check out the Booster Pack from the Genso shop page (thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game), or you can check out my YouTube for more Genso stuff (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA).

Psychic and Grass monsters

For this post, I'll show you all the monsters that you can have in a Psychic and Grass deck. I put together all of the monsters which go with their element and put them onto one picture. In this card game, you need 40 cards in a deck. And remember, the monsters need to be part of the element(s) that you've picked!




So, as you can see, there are a lot of monsters to choose from. You'll have 25 monsters if you include one of each monster (including Generic monsters)! Plus, Generation 2 will come with a bunch more monsters, so you can keep on expanding your deck as time goes by. Don't forget that there are also Magic and Equip cards (which I'll get to another time) to put in your deck. Even though you know the monsters, you don't know the stats or abilities of them - so you'll have to wait until you get them!
The good thing is that you don't have to take a monster if you don't want it, and you can have as many of the same monster in your deck as you like! You could have 40 Wizors if you wanted (but that would be silly, because Wizor allows you to draw 2 cards when it is summoned), or 40 of any other particular monster. I'll probably take 2 Wizors in my deck, just because I love him!

That's all I've got for the Psychic and Grass monsters for now; next will be the Ghost and Metal monsters! If you want to get some of these cards, you can get a Booster Pack from the Genso shop page (thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game), or you can check out my YouTube for other Genso stuff (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA).

Thanks for reading and I'll post more soon!

Some cards

Now, I've realised that I haven't done a post where I show of some cards. This is a card game! So, I am going to post some pictures of cards. I won't be able to do them all, but I'll probably have to make a part 2 sometime.





These cards are what I call the Generic cards. They are cards that were so good, but I wasn't sure where they belonged. I decided that since I couldn't quite place them in one specific element, I would make one of them for each element! Ones like Boost and Gem are amazing at powering up other monsters. Boost gives all your monsters 20 Attack and Gem gives all your monsters 10 Defence. They are really useful, so I'd say to take 2 Boosts in a deck (that's what I'd take) and possibly 2 Gems, but I'm not too sure on that.

Dicer is an old one, way back from my old Trading Card Game, Sintrivi Blasma! It's great for if your opponent has a tough monster, but only if you're lucky enough to roll high numbers! If not, use a Magic or Equip card and see if you can keep it safe until next turn (so that you can use it to summon a Veteran monster).

Sheol is an amazing monster. With 50 Defence, 70 Attack and 120 Life, he's a pretty tough Warrior monster. And that's why I made him Generic, because that way everyone can have a good monster to help them out.

Lastly is Spuntix. I'm not really sure what Spuntix is, but I really like it. It's like a mix of Pacman and Snake! It's a Veteran - and it's also pretty powerful. It has Fly, which works amazingly with it's 70 Attack.





These are a few Earth cards. So, we have Bouldilo, Pearly and Roky. I really like Bouldilo, even though I think it looks nothing like an armadillo. Pearly is like a big and magical Pearl, which looks beautiful. Roky is a rock monster (which makes sense in an Earth deck), but he has an evil twin brother called Volky (a Fire monster). I want to do a competition one day, where people can make their own fan made sibling. The winning design will be made into a card - and it'll have the name of the creator, too. That would be so cool!

That's all that I'll show off today, don't forget to check out my YT channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaktQ_2MU_TOtDX-i5qqSqA) and the Shop for the Genso TCG (https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/genso-the-trading-card-game).
