My First Archetype - Tiki's (24/??)

[Anbu-of-Sand]

Be as strict as you want when rating my cards,but please don't be like "Those cards SUCK. My mom could make better cards" or anything like that. It'd also be nice to show your appreciation on how much you like this archetype (if you do) by giving me some positive reps saying how much you like the archetype and maybe why you like it :)

 

Hello. This is my very 1st archetype Tiki's. I will be continuing this set for quite awhile. Probably when I run out of pics to fit the theme of what I'm trying to go for. The monsters are sort from the highest level at the top to the lowest level at the bottom.

[spoiler=The Story]

In the middle of the ocean floats an odd sort of island. This island is filled with mysteries and legends about what goes on in this mysterious place. People have said they have seen creatures practicing in battle on this island. People have also seen floating like orbs around these creatures and around certain places on the island. Every once in awhile,people have seen this island shake. Then,the island would float and levitate in the middle of the air,with giant orbs floating around the island.

 

These creatures are called Tiki's. Tiki's are the creatures that run about on this fantastic island of mystery. Most of these creatures have certain weapons that they carry along with them when alone. Others would walk around in tribes,groups,whatever you may call it,of their same kind. These creatures vary on appearance. Most of them are green,or have green stripes around their bodies. Other's look more native while having native-like designs on their body.

 

The true power within these fantastic creatures are held in these floating orbs around the island known as Tiki Counters. These floating orbs are what give the Tiki's their hidden powers. A Tiki must find these orbs which is quite hard,seeing only a few places on the island have these orbs. The other approach for Tiki's to obtain these is to destroy enemies in battle,which then grants them 1 orb.

 

These orbs would float around the Tiki's,depending how much a Tiki has. When a Tiki uses it's hidden power,an orb that it has with them vanishes,depending how many orbs are needed to trigger the hidden power within said Tiki. After a Tiki uses an orb,the controller of the orb loses a bit of it's energy,seeing it takes lots of power to use an orb to unleash a Tiki's hidden power.

[Zyirth]

uh....well, the archetype seems all over the place. and OP'd, somewhat.

 

for starters, the tuners give far too much protection. one of the Lv. 4 monsters had....2400 def? with no drawback whatsoever? that's actually my main complaint there. there's no real drawbacks to the effects. though I don't really see any searcher added, and I admit I just skimmed through most of the effects because the cards are bloated with effects. that's another main complaint there.

 

don't bloat every card with several effects: no one likes reading a whole deck with small paragraphs of effects, I'm sure. consider that if you're making an archetype for an actual deck, out of those 13 effect monsters, you'd be using at most half of that, with various copies, in order to increase consistency. same with the spells. try not to make impossibly tough card combos: instead focus on stuff that can work easily and can act in synergy with a cohesive, good amount of cards: spreading your theme all around the place can really hurt the overall archetype. that's just my two cents there. I give no rating because...that's just not how I roll, heh.

 

I hope this is of help.

[Anbu-of-Sand]

Yeah, this was my first archetype so some/most of the cards are OP'd and such D: I'd revise it but it's so hard finding the time to fix all of them.

[Stricklord]

I believe the card effects are a little complicated, and some of the cards are overpowered. Other than that, they are very good. I think the card art is amazing.

[Anbu-of-Sand]

Thank you and thank you. And like said before, most of them are OP'd and need work on. I'll try to find the time to fix them.
