(This post was last modified: 01-28-2021, 02:19 AM by Draconus297.)
This is an idea I've wanted to do for a while- combining the effects of a bunch of extra early cards from the days before archetypes (and of a few pre-Lightsworn archetypes) to create a middling archetype of actual decent design. With a few alterations in terms of the exact clauses or conditions, all the effects here are direct references to old monsters.Â
The Links are all references to old Fusions, old Rituals, and a few early Synchros, btw.
