Dead Archetpyes


Recommended Posts

Not sure if I'm breaking a rule here or not, but here I go...
Old Archetypes, like:
Harpies
Archfiends (The ones that rely on dice)
Mask cards (Mask of Restrict, Mask of Darkness, etc.).....

Which archetype would you like to see Konami make more support for? (Not just any of the three I just mentioned, but any old archetype.)

I'd like Harpies to get a boost of any kind.
Masks, I'd like them if possible, to give them support 100% unrelated to Extra Decks. Wouldn't want to see them change from the classics. I love Des Gardius so, I'm mainly thinking on that as the center =P

Dark Magician. Because his stats aren't threatening at all anymore. I see 2500 beaters as I used to see 7 Colored Fish back in the day, and I'd like to give support to Dark Magician itself, not support that spams it as an Xyz Material of Big Eye.

Red Eyes. Original vanilla Red Eyes. I think there are fun builds possible with Hyeratics, but they still need a little push.

Toons, definitely toons, and Unions. For both cases, support that allows working decently with the already existing cards, not Support like the one Six Sams got.


Mokey Mokey overall.

Dragunitys need something like:

This Old Dragunity (Actually, more something like Dragunity Arma Blackblade)
Level 6
Whodafuckcares ATK/Whodafuckcares DEF
Dragon/Effect

You can Special Summon this card (from your Graveyard) by returning 1 face-up Dragon-Type "Dragunity" monster on the field to your hand. When this card is Special Summoned this way: You can Equip 1 Level 3 or lower Dragon-Type "Dragunity" monster in your Graveyard to this card, and treat it as an Equip Card.

Dux -> Phalanx -> This -> Return Phalanx -> Synch into Level 8 -> Ravine Stuff, dump Zeph -> Zeph returns Ravine -> Xyz into Rank 4.

And believe me, this list is very, very, VERY long.

But for any old Archetype, I'd have to say Aliens (depending on your definition of "old". Are we talking first-gen to second-gen, or are we talking about what year said Archetype was released?).

I suppose the Gaia knights can be considered an archetype, as they have 1 support card. But that one only helps the oldest 3. Maybe something like:
"Warrior, Beast-Warrior and Dragon-type Gaia monsters inflict piercing damage. If Gaia the Dragon Champion inflicts damage by this effect, draw 2 cards and discard 1. If Gaia Knight the Universal Force inflicts damage by this effect, send 1 card in your opponent's hand or field to the graveyard. If Gaia the Thunder Charger destroys an opponent's monster by battle and sends it to the graveyard, it can attack once again in a row."

Toons of course are really needing. They need a Discard-to draw-2 and another card treated as Toon World.

Archetypes*?

OT: Phantom beasts,ally of justice,genex,and harpies most definitely need support.

Give phantom beasts a swarm card,AOJ a [i]playable[/i] card that changes attributes to light,give genex remotely decent swarm/effects,and give harpies something that can fuel hysteric party.

VWXYZs[/quote]
Technically, VWXYZ isn't "dead", more like un-finished.
Seriously, Chazz had a lot more cards that made Summoning VtoZ a viable choice, yet, we never got them :/

Destiny Heroes are completely overshadowed by Elemental Heroes now.
Dragunity really never got anything new and have no moves without the field spell.
Harpy and Amazoness, though I don't think there's any way to make them playable, they're just so old...

/Assault Modes definitely.
They got their own episode, sure, but that was non-canon and only showed two of them.

Oh yeah, and Flamvells are now just worse Lavals.

Assault Modes were cool in that episode.
Then Konami thought it would be cool to give them more support... That only existed in a single pack.

I'm talking ANY archetype that never sees play anymore, or not played as often.

LOOK, ALL OF US WANT MORE TOON CARDS.
BUT KONAMI CAN'T EVER BE COOL AND MAKE MORE.

YES, WE NEED MORE! >=(
