Ultimagamer 21 Posted February 23, 2019 (edited) 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 ).

TheLegalNinja 0 Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) I may be no expert, But I can tell somethings need to be worked on, First off Clarity: with the way the text is separated it would suggest these are pendulum monsters with the unpreventable summon restriction Second: Ease down on the summoning restriction, because with all this swarming your preventing yourself from accessing some useful and strong monsters that can help, atleast make only for a turn that makes you only special summon them or atleast their type.

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.
