Good, but overlooked Archetypes [Watt & Gemknight] + Inverz

Seriously, they're epic Archetypes, but they're hardly played. Discuss both of them. Also...

[spoiler=]

NEWEST DUEL TERMINAL ARCHETYPE IS FOCUSED ON TRIBUTE SUMMONS, AND IT INCLUDES RITUAL MONSTER!!!

 

[Azuh]

They are hardly played because they just came out >_>

[.Nu-13]

So what? They're still very good. *hopes that they'll both become Tier 1*

...and because nobody wants to use them. Watts/Elecs may be cuuuuuuuuuute, but they're also puny and Thunder. Gemknights are Fusions, and don't Contact Fuse. Enough said.

*Deflects with Infernity Reflector*

 

I'm not saying these are good reasons, I'm saying they're reasons why someone wouldn't sell their 3 Launchers and Archfiends (isn't that thing worth like $30 now?).

 

You know what? Fine!

 

*Off to make an Elec Deck*

OT: But seriously, they have a lot of potential, and can be epic if built right

Were going to get a kiwi:D (Well, not now though)

'Kay, I made an Elec Deck. I have a feeling I was doing it wrong, but I used Elecs + some other Thunder monsters like Rai-Oh, and ran 3 Messenger of Peace. I tried Robbin' Goblin to go with the semi-hand control semi-theme, but never drew it. Only Synchro'd once. Oh yeah, had 2-3 (can't remember) Shining Angel and 2 Honest, to make up for the Elecs low ATK. It all worked out...okay. There's probably a better way to use them (just splashing key ones, maybe?).

[.Nu-13]

Messenger of Peace and Robbin' Goblin can work in Watts, but there are too much dead draws with them.

[-Griffin]

I think Elecs like Solid. It makes them less-awful with their ATK.

 

Inverz are <3

[.Nu-13]

Inverz are EPIC [/thread]

[~/Coolio Prime\~]

Wait for Elechimera, genius.

 

Watts will slowly gain some usability. With there release came the interesting Elecube, along with some decent starter Watts. Meiku Rai-oh, and some good Thunder monsters and support already existed to work off of. In Duelist Revolution Elechimera and some more tuners brought about, however, an effective means of winning. Starstrike Blast is far down the road, but Elechopper and Eleckeeper look cool. I hope for the archetype's continued support.

 

And I just realized:

The problem is that even the strongest Elec (Chimera) would only have 2200 ATK with Solidarity in play, which is low for such a large boost. It also doesn't let me use Shining Angel as a searcher or (more importantly) Honest.

 

I'm rather skeptical about Inverz, but we'll see.

Hmmm.

I'm wondering how Elecs with 3 D-Prisons, 2 Bottomless, 3 Trap Hole and maybe 3 Widespead Ruin/Sakeretsu/PWWB/Karma Cut would work. Since they need some way to keep their monsters safe, and that sounds viable.
