Buster Blader Platoon
The original prompt was the following:
Quote:A group of EARTH warriors and beasts who gain stats based on opponent's dragon-types and through their numbers. They have continuous abilities that allows you to Special Summon useless dragon tokens on your opponent's side of the field when certain conditions are met.
The first AGM archetype I'd made. It is absolute garbage and doesn't offer anything besides the possibility of turning all your opponent's monsters into Dragons, but like... why tho? Even the archetype doesn't benefit a whole lot from that besides minor ATK boosts. They'd probably even match up poorly against some of Konami's weakest archetypes.
In porting them over here, I did not add anything to 'em. Any changes that were made from their original selves was purely to update their card grammar. I don't actually think I'm going to do anything with these, but I did want to remind myself of how bad and overly restricted my early designs were so... yeah.
