Mini-archetype: Assassinatrix

[HelpIveBeenShot]

Well, I wanted a set of monsters that allow the player to keep their field full, to some degree. Primarily for the purpose of tributes. So far, I've got 20+ cards made already, but no art for a single one of them. Still, I wanted to post a few, and hopefully get some feedback.

Tripwire Trap Hole

TRAP

Activate only when your opponent declares an attack against a face-up "Assassinatrix - Tripwire" you control. Negate the attack and destroy the attacking monster.

 

 

Aesthetically, all the monsters are (biologically) ordinary women, but their attribute and type are determined by their weapon/tactic of choice. There's not really a lot of "Win" capability here, but I didn't think there should have been. It's best to try and cross them with other underpowered, incomplete, or slow strategies.

 

I'd love some ratings and opinions.

I can see a LOT of the support being used in other, Flip Summon based decks. Namely Worms. Which isn't a bad thing, by any means.

[HelpIveBeenShot]

I didn't want to tie the cards together too tightly.More flexibility = more variations = less carbon-copy strategies (hopefully)

 

And worms need some love too.

 

Also, thanks for replying.
