Video on Lithiums channel showcased a rather interesting idea of using the new Level 1 in combination with Spyral Master Plan ( a level 7 spellcaster ), special summoning itself from the hand, then using it's ability to send spells and traps to draw cards to send important backrow with graveyard effects ( assault and rescue ) to draw free cards. Seems like an interesting idea, especially over in the ocg where they have 2 quick fix and drone ( making machine dupe a playable card over there ).

These were a couple cards I thought of to support the Nephthys archetype. They make the archetype quite a bit faster, and gives them some good consistency options. Any kind of review is always appreciated! Nephthys Temple Spell - Field The effects of "Nephthys" Monsters and FIRE Monsters that activate in the GY either during the next standby phase after being destroyed by a card effect, or during your next standby phase after being destroyed by a card effect, can be activated immediately after being destroyed instead. If this face-up card would be destroyed by a card effect, you can destroy 1 “Nephthys” Monster from your Deck instead. If the effect of a “Nephthys” Monster you control would destroy a card in your hand, you can destroy a card you control instead, except itself. Nephthys Rites Spell - Normal Add 1 “Nephthys” Spell/Trap card from your Deck or GY to your hand, except "Nephthys Rites". If the card added to your hand by this effect is a Ritual Spell card, you can also add 1 “Nephthys” Ritual Monster from your Deck or GY to your hand. If this card is destroyed by a card effect and sent to your GY: You can set this card from your GY to your field. You can only use each effect of “Nephthys Rites” once per turn.

A couple thoughts on this banlist. Banning REDMD has gotta hurt for those guard dragon players. Not being able to keep getting free revives for your link plays will definitely hurt. The ocg has 3 Denglong, but the tcg can't even get one? To be fair though, the ocg has a few more dino hits than the tcg, so it's kinda understandable. If the ocg is now getting Raigeki back, what are the odds we get Harpie's Feather Duster back? ( Something to note, Raigeki is getting reprinted in the newest structure deck, following the banlist announcement. Maybe it foreshadows something in the tcg? ) The ocg has, 2 Solemn Strikes, 2 Solemn Judgements, and 3 Solemn Warnings? Must be nice. Terrortop should probably either stay at 1, or get an errata. Having 2 Toadally Awesome and 2 Hero Lives is interesting. A format with 3 Fairy Tail Snow and 2 Grass Looks Greener will be interesting for sure.

If anyone has the time, I would really appreciate a review of these sets I created. Not too many people like to review sets.

These were some support cards I thought of to support the two archetypes, F.A.s and Vendreads. These cards are designed to give the decks a good consistency boost, as well as give them a much more clearer and easier to achieve win condition. Any kind of review is appreciated! [F.A.] F.A.

This is a series of cards I thought of based around the board game Monopoly. This archetype focuses around taxing the opponent, maybe not out of their money, but rather, out of their life points! Each time your opponent visits one of your properties, they will not only pay a fine, but they might even experience something a little nastier! From getting a free draw, to destroying one of their cards, to getting a free add from the grave, to shufflling a card in their hand away! The Monsters in this archetype focus around swarming and help give the archetype more consistency in how they place their properties. This easy swarm and placements allow for Rich Uncle Pennybags himself to make an appearance! Allowing for total board control and making sure the opponent won’t be missing any of their taxes! Any review is always greatly appreciated!

During either players turn, if your either player Summons a Monster to a column that a “Monopoly Property” Continuous Spell card is in, while you control more than 1 “Monopoly” Property” card, you can choose which “Monopoly Property” Continuous Spell card you want to activate ( even if your opponent did not Summon a Monster to that column ), also those cards activated effects can be activated more than once per turn.

These were some support cards I thought of to help out the Ice Barrier archetype. These cards are designed to give the archetype a lot more swarming and plussing abilities to maintain advantage. I'm trying something rather interesting; breaking the pendulum mechanic. The ability to pendulum summon from your GY instead of from your Extra Deck. This would help the deck, since it would give the deck a lot of recovery. The spells and trap are designed to give the deck more consistency, more recovery, and stopping power --> allowing you to keep on using your graveyard resources to continue your places. Please leave your thoughts below. ?

According to the yugioh card database, there are 674 normal spell cards in the game. Let's see what I get.

The summon restrictions are used to keep the archetype in check. Without them, you have a series of level 4 earth warriors ( a really good level / typing / attribute ) to be used in any strategy for free summons each turn. That isn't my intention with these cards. Keeping the restrictions from being negatable prevents you from using things like skill drain to negate your own monster effects. Even with them being locked into only archetypal monsters, that shouldn't be a problem for the deck. The link monsters are quite versatile ( having a searcher, token spawner, negation, non-targeting shuffle, and a trishula style shuffle effect ) so not being able to summon things like borrels or isolde won't hurt the deck much.

This card seems interesting. Being semi-generic is nice, can get up to 2100 attack by itself, and even more with it's negation effect. A quick ruling question however. If the monster is in the EMZ, would it point to the spell/trap cards in the columns adjacent to it, or, the ones two columns over?

These were some cards I thought of to support the Witchcraft archetype coming out in Infinite Ignition. These cards are designed to help out the Deck keep it's advantage up and gain plusses, while making it's plays. The new Link monster is designed similarly to Isolde, and helps out Witchcraft in the same way that Isole helps out Noble Knights: good GY set-up, searching, and even recursion. The new level 1 Monster offers another good normal summon for the deck, while allowing you to gain field presence when it's in the GY. The new spells offer many ways for the deck to get free advantage during the end phase. The continuous spell offers targeting protection for all of your Witchcrafts, one of the quickplay spells offers the deck some powerful stealing and disruption for the deck, and the other quickplay spell offers the deck an advantage gain to match that of Spellbook of Judgement! A powerful counter trap card is here that also helps out the theme, negating any card effect, and while having a GY effect to recur spell cards from your GY. Something interesting to note about the naming of these cards ( These are designed to keep the naming theme of the archetype consistent ) Mestiere means "Craft" in Italian ( and yes, that does make her name "Witchcraft Craft" ) Bijuterii means "Jewelry" in Romanian ( related to Haine, which means "Clothing" in Romanian ) Bye Street is a reference to Harry Potter, in which Harry, trying to get to Diagon Alley, calls it "Diagonally" instead. ( By Street always makes me think of Diagon Alley whenever I see it ) Witchcraft Mestiere Link 2 / Light / Spellcaster / Link / Effect Link Materials: 2 Spellcaster Monsters Link Markers: Bottom, Left 2000 attack If this card is Link Summoned: You can add 1 “Witchcraft” card from your Deck to your hand.

You can only use 1 effect of “Witchcraft Control” per turn, and only once that turn. Witchcraft Decision Trap - Counter When a card or effect is activated while you control a “Witchcraft” Monster: you can discard 1 Spell card; negate the activation, then banish that card face-down. During either players Main Phase, if this card is in your GY: You can banish this card from your GY; add 1 “Witchcraft” Spell card from your GY to your hand, then you can add 1 Spell card from your GY to your hand with a different name from the first added card. You can only use 1 effect of “Witchcraft Decision” per turn, and only once that turn.

These are a bunch of cards I thought of based around a spectacular swarming method to gain great advantage and summoning good in archetype links. Every card in the archetype that stays up on the field longer than it's activation or summon restricts your summons to within the archetype. All of the monsters in the archetype have effects to summon themselves, and gain effects on summon. Also, the inspiration behind this archetype was Disney's The Three Musketeers ( a movie I personally like ).

These were a couple cards I found a couple days ago. They seem pretty interesting, and after testing them out for a bit, they tend to work out pretty well. Flame Bufferlo Level 3 / Fire / Cyberse / Effect 1400 attack / 200 defense Effect: If this face-up card leaves the field: You can discard 1 Cyberse monster, and if you do, draw 2 cards. You can only use this effect of "Flame Bufferlo" once per turn. Backup Secretary Level 3 / Light / Cyberse / Effect 1200 attack / 800 defense Effect: If you control a Cyberse monster, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand). You can only Special Summon "Backup Secretary" once per turn this way. They feel like nice budget options for the deck. Flame Bufferlo has a pretty nice draw effect that can help you dig for your combo pieces. You can even chain block with it's effect by using it as a link material for Balelynx ( Doing Bufferlo as CL1, and Balelynx as CL2 ). The card doesn't even discard for cost, so if your opponent hits it with something like called by the grave, you don't lose any advantage. Being that it can put Salamangreats in the GY, it can help you set up effects like Spinny and Foxy, and set up Gazelle's hand effect, all while drawing 2 new cards. It being a level 3 also allows it to be used as an Xyz material for Mirage Stallio, and being a fire monster allows it to be used for Sunlight Wolf and Heatleo. Backup Secretary is a nice budget alternative to Pyschic Wheelder. It does a very similar thing, special summoning itself from the hand, but has an added utility to it. While Wheelder only summons itself while you control a level 3 monster, Secretary can summon itself if you control any Cyberse type monster. This means that if you control things like Mole, Meer, Fowl, Jack Jaguar, or Falco, you can still summon it from your hand. Being a level 3 Cyberse gives it the utility of being possible Link material for Balelynx, or Xyz material for Stallio. These cards seem pretty neat. From what I've tested so far, they work with Salamangreats pretty well.

Called by the Grave: rearrange the chain links so that the effects get negated after they resolve ( or, in the case that a monster is being special summoned from the gy, the effect of called wouldn't even resolve ) Effect Veiler: same thing as called, rearranging the chain so the effect get negated after it resolves Something I'm kinda concerned about with this card though, how do effects that directly chain to negate work with this? Say for example, your opponent controls a Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon, and you attempt to activate the effect of Isolde. The chain order would initially go: Isolde CL1, Crystal Wing CL2. With this card though, you could make it so that the chain links were: Crystal Wing CL1, Isolde CL2, Knotted Chain CL3. How would Crystal Wing's effect resolve in this situation? Would it just fizzle with no actual negation?
