Introduction:It's VECTOR again. Shouldn't need that big a introduction. This submission handles a new card, a name change and 3 effect changes.
The New Card:
VECTOR Frame: Eska II is a Psychic Link 1 VECTOR monster (yes, I ended up making a Link 1 VECTOR) that on Summon sends a VECTOR card from the Deck to the Graveyard and functions as a quasi-Muscplosion while in the Graveyard; when the opponent activates a card or effect during your turn, you get to banish Eska II from the Graveyard to negate that effect. Unlike Muscplosion however, this does not have the "Called by the Grave"-like clause to negate the effects of cards with that name until the end of the next turn, it only negates that one effect.
This is to make sure the Archetype doesn't die to a single interaction (or Nibiru at any given time in the turn) and some survivability going second, as VECTOR is highly fragile in it's opening plays, even more so than most other decks. This card doesn't give the Deck access to stronger ending boards than before (despite the mill), as far as I tested it.
The 3 Erratas:
VECTOR Mech: Brawler F4-SK3,
VECTOR Mech: Swordbreaker Z3-R0 and
VECTOR Mech: Spellbreaker ALVAREZ are to receive changes to their Float Conditions. When
VECTOR Frame: Tyrfing and
VECTOR Frame: Drakkhen made equipping any VECTOR monster possible, which gave these 3 cards the ability to be in the Spell/Trap Zone, they had also given them the ability to trigger when sent from the Spell/Trap Zones to the Graveyard. Granted this would not happen very often, but it was an unintended interaction, so now these 3 Mechs specify that they want to be sent from your Monster Zone to the GY in order to activate their effects.
However, this change will not be made for
VECTOR Frame: Vylte as I had intended her to be able to use her float (which is just her equipping herself to a VECTOR) to be used when sent to the Grave as cost for the effects of
VECTOR Legion: Core Commando or
VECTOR Legion: Naval Control.The Name Change:
The card currently known as
VECTOR Mechanization: Frame Development is to have it's name changed to
VECTOR Frame: Armatize. This will not affect it's searchability by
VECTOR Legion: Rear Support or
VECTOR Mechanic: Velis (in which case there's going to be an update in her effect text, stating this card's name as one of the searchable cards). The reason for this is essentially me preparing for possible Frame supports in the future and the fact that this can only Summon Frame monsters makes it weird that it is indeed a Mech Spell. This change, however, does reduce the Mech Spell Count to 2, while Legions still have 3 Spells, but I am not too bothered by it at this point in time, and if I do end up getting bothered by it later, I can always make a new third Mech Spell.
