A Form of God Card Ultimatum?

If anyone here remembers the show Yu-Gi-Oh or has never heard of it, there was a set of almighty cards called The Egyptian God Cards (Obelisk the Tormentor, The Winged Dragon of Ra, Slifer the Sky Dragon). And normally the best duelist (Being Yugi) was in control of all 3 god cards.

What if Wizard101 had something like this in PVP? Where there are 3 almighty cards (Unique, never seen outside an Arena) that only belonged to one duelist. These cards are very, very powerful, and only that duelist has them, since he is number 1. If he loses a ranked 1v1 match (the #1 can compete outside 1v1 ranked matches, but can't use the cards unless he/she is in a 1v1 ranked match). If that ranked #1 duelist loses, then the god cards are given to the winner of that duel, who is now the new ranked #1.

So in the short run, 3 almighty cards, only one possessor, the best. If that duelist loses, he loses the cards to the victor. There is also a quest where you travel back in time to bring the almighty cards to your time.
Anyone think this is a good idea?

I like the idea but I think Kingsisle is reluctant to forcably take away our spells. Kinda why we don't have a "Can't Use in PvP" spell outside the treasure cards.

Like the Idea though!

How about the #1 person in the leaderboard gets the best card, #2 person gets the 2nd best, and the #3 person gets the last card. But, other than the one-person-gets-all thing, nice idea

I don't know about this. It depends on the mythology and religion. If it is something like Greek Mythology or Egyptian like you said, It would be awesome. But if it is something a lot of people believe in now, like Christianity or Judaism, It may be taken as offensive or controversial.

I feel the heebie jeebies just casting Storm Lord...actually noticed I try to avoid it wherever possible and just do a non-denominational Tempest instead.

If KI made a series of pvp god cards, I suppose I would probably be fine with that since I don't PVP, but at a gut level, taking the spiritual journeys of others and turning them into a marketing gimmick just feels tacky and idolatrous. Even the gods and saints of long lost civilizations deserve to be handled in a respectful way even if we ourselves are no longer bound in superstition.
