Yeah, Zane [b](just going to guess this was supposed to say "same")[/b] thing happened to me when he entered into my contest.
[/quote]

And I cannot figure out for the life of me why that is? I mean I even did the circuitous route and went to tinypic and uploaded pics there and for my cards...ugh this vexes me so! Nevertheless they have all been changed to written cards...a piece of me has died inside but they have all been changed.

[Sora1499]

Jah, meant to say 'same'. Freaking auto-correct.

[AGATHODAIMON BANGTAIL COW]

Since a few others have already done it, and I don't want to forget that I'm in a contest, I'll post mine before someone steals my idea.

[spoiler='Avoid destruction by effects so they can be destroyed by battle.']1:

Sorudah, the Lifeless Brigand Dirklord
Effect Monster 2* Zombie-type EARTH 1000/1200
You can Special Summon this card (from your hand). If this card is Special Summoned by this effect: It cannot be Tributed or used as a Material Monster. When this monster is destroyed as a result of battle: You can Special Summon 1 "Dirklord" monster from your Graveyard (except "Sorudah, the Lifeless Brigand Dirklord").


2:

The Dirklord Warden - Keyan
Effect Monster 3* Fairy-type LIGHT 1100/1600
When your opponent declares a direct attack: You can Special Summon this card (from your hand). When this face-up monster is selected as an attack target and is destroyed as a result of battle: You can destroy 1 monster on the field and inflict damage to your opponent equal to half of its ATK.


3:

Ridicule of the Dirklords
Trap
Activate only during your opponent's turn. Pay 1000 life points; change all monsters on your opponent's side of the field into face-up Attack Position. It is now the Battle Phase. Your opponent must attack with all monsters. You must control a "Dirklord" monster to activate and to resolve this effect.


4:

Huazint, the Dirklord Drone
Effect Monster 2* Machine-type EARTH 500/800
During either player's turn: If a "Dirklord" monster on your side of the field would be destroyed by a card effect: You can discard this card OR banish this card (from the Graveyard) instead. The effect of "Huazint, the Dirklord Drone" can only be activated once per turn.


5:

Dringe, the Shadowslime Dirklord
Effect Monster 3* Aqua-type DARK 1300/1100
When this face-up monster is selected as an attack target and is destroyed as a result of battle: Draw 2 cards. When this monster is Normal Summoned: You can banish 1 "Dirklord" monster from your Graveyard; this monster gains the following effect:
* When this monster is removed from the field: You can destroy 1 face-up Spell or Trap card on the field.


6:

Dirklord Bunker
Field Spell
Monsters with 1500 or less ATK cannot be destroyed by card effects. When a monster with 1500 or less ATK is Normal Summoned: The controller of that card draws 1 card. Once per turn: If this card would be destroyed: You can banish 1 "Dirklord" monster from your Graveyard instead.


7:

Brimestone Dirklord Staverral

8:

Armada of the Bladeslingers
Spell
Banish 2 "Dirklord" cards from your Graveyard; pick up cards from the top of your Deck until you pick up 2 "Dirklord" monsters. Special Summon those monsters, then shuffle the rest back into your Deck. You cannot Special Summon other monsters during this turn.


9:

Forging Steel
Trap
Banish 2 "Dirklord" cards from your Graveyard; add 1 "Dirklord" monster from your Deck to your hand.[/spoiler]

9 is such a limiting number for an archetype I already was busy making. There's a beatdown variant of this archetype, and Synchros, a-and even monsters that give themselves to your opponent and attack during your Battle Phase while they're over there.

[7swords]

I will judge if you want me to. My favorite season is summer.

[Alpakha]

Sounds interesting, I might join. I have to go to church right now, but I'll get back you to when I get home.

[Alpakha]

Points sent! [s]My theme will be monster that activate their effects when returned to the deck (not like gladiator beasts)[/s] scratch that, I'll think of something. I'll post cards when ready. My favorite season is spring.

Edit: I'll be making monsters that activate their effects when your opponent special summons, anti meta archetype.

[Sora1499]

@Kvn
You're not posting your Furnus set here?

[.Exa]

Ohai winter, can I still join this?

[Strider Tigerwolf]

That's funny. I posted the first of my elemental archtypes, but I guess that also counts since they are a bit unique. They are monsters that "react" towards card effects being played, dealing minor burn while also being floaters. They also have their own form of consistency and are probably more predominant as a Synchro Deck.

Using up your Normal Summon to get various effects at the cost of having no monster that turn

Favorite arc was the Dark Signer arc of 5Ds

[spoiler=Spectral Monsters]
Spectral Keeper

1600 ATK/ 0 DEF

Spectral Equalizer
Level 4; WIND
[Warrior/Effect]
When you would Normal Summon this card, you can Banish it instead of placing it on the field. If this card is Banished by the effect of a "Spectral" card, or from your Graveyard, your opponent banishes 1 card in their hand. Then, they can draw 1 card, and if they do, you draw 1 card. If this Banished card would be shuffled back into the Deck by a card effect: Add 1 "Spectral" card from your Deck to your hand after resolution.
1800 ATK/2000 DEF

Spectral Destroyer

[Fiend/Effect]
When you would Normal Summon this card, you can Banish it instead of placing it on the field. If this card is Banished by the effect of a "Spectral" card, or from your Graveyard, your opponent banishes 1 card they control. Then, they can select 1 of their banished cards or cards in their Graveyard, and if they do, target 1 of your banished cards or cards in your Graveyard. Both players add their respective card to their hand. If this Banished card would be shuffled back into the Deck by a card effect: Destroy 1 card on the field after resolution.
1900 ATK/1900 DEF

Spectral Summoner
Level 4; DARK
[Spellcaster/Tuner/Effect]

Spectral Composer
Level 12; WIND
[Spellcaster/Effect]

Cards and effects cannot be activated in response to the Synchro Summon of this card. The effect(s) of this card cannot be negated. You can Synchro Summon this card by shuffling the above Banished cards into your deck and negating their effect(s), but the non-Tuner monsters have to be "Spectral" monsters. If you do, you can only activate the first bulleted effect of this card. You can shuffle 1 banished "Spectral" monster into your deck and negate its effect(s) and activate 1 of the following effects:
[*]If this card would leave the field by battle or by an opposing card effect, you can have it lose 1000 ATK/DEF instead, until your next End Phase. This effect can be activated during either player's turn.

3500 ATK/3500 DEF

Spectral Collective
Rank 4; LIGHT
[Fairy/Xyz/Effect]
2 or more Level 4 "Spectral" monsters
Instead of Xyz Summoning this monster using monsters on the field, you can use any "Spectral" monsters that are banished as Xyz Material. This card gains 300 ATK for every Banished "Spectral" monster. Any Xyz Materials that would be detached from this card are Banished instead of sent to the Graveyard. Once per turn, you can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card: Banish 1 card from your hand, Deck, field, or Graveyard, and if you do, you can shuffle 1 other Banished card back into your Deck. If this card has no Xyz materials: Banish it.

Spectral Zone
Field Spell
Banished monsters cannot be Special Summoned, except by the effect of a "Spectral" card. During the Draw Phase, or at the time this card is activated, the turn player can activate 1 of the following effects in addition to their normal draw.

I have a feeling my archetype aim may end up being the wierdest aim, since the entire thing resolves around having no cards left in your deck... And yes I said deck.

I'm suprised so many cards are in already, am I the only person yet to post there things? If so, I can have them up by the end of tomorrow realisitcally.

Oh, and paid at last.

My entry: the Infernals. They revolve around accumulating cards your s/t zones for benefits, then quickly ditching them for even MORE benefits. These guys are definitely control, not herpderp OTK, but their boss and is quite splashable in the set. Hope you like em.

Edit: Just realized that this submission has 10 cards... Is that ok? If not, ignore the centaur.

[D.A._Sakuyamon]

Due to the site being down will we get an extra day or 2 to submit?

[Alpakha]

Huh, I completely forgot about this...

[spoiler=About]
I made this a while ago, so I had to update them. There's also a bunch more, but limit 5 cards . All of the names are misspellings of a mythical animal and they're dark versions of them (hence the name, 'Umbral Myth'). Bas'lizk = Basilisk, Unee'kor = Unicorn, Tann'gu=Tengu, Etc. Also, their effects just require for a monster to be special summoned to your opponent's field, not that your oppoenent needs to special summon a monster. SO the tokens summoned from the field spell can be used as fodder for the monster effects.[/spoiler]
