Tiny Troublemaker [10/10]

[Zazubat]

Hello you all. It's my first time posting an unfinished Archetype, I normally don't like doing this, but because there's a lack of people who review full Archetypes, I figured that I would post this pre-production of the Archetype. It is now done. I have gotten more than I would normally have, so I suppose it works fine. Anyway, this is a Gemini exclusive Archetype, but with a interesting twist. They're all based off mythical and extinct creatures, the Spell/Trap support is based of areas such as Forests, Springs etc.

 

Monsters

 

[spoiler=Manticore]

 

 

You can target 1 face-up "Tiny Troublemaker" monster you control; equip this card from your hand to that target as an Equip Spell Card. A monster equipped with this card is treated as an Effect Monster, and gains its effects. This card is treated as a Normal Monster while face-up on the field or in the Graveyard. While this card is face-up on the field, you can Normal Summon it to have it be treated as an Effect Monster with this effect.  
    * You can return 1 "Tiny Troublemaker" card that is equipped to this card to your hand; Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Gemini Monster from your Deck, but it cannot Normal Summon itself this turn. This effect of "Tiny Troublemaker - Manticore" can only be activated once per turn.

 

 

 

NOTE: "It cannot Normal Summon itself" means that other cards can would make it gain its effects can be used, such as other Tiny Troublemaker cards.

Tiny Bump!

[rushgambit]

Looks cool. If you expand the archtype I'd love to test them out in a duel.

[Zazubat]

bump, gonna start to make the rest now, but would like to see some reviews.

[Kodamλ]

I feel that this is a great miniset so far and the effects work extremely well with each other. There are some great combos that are available, just with the first five cards in the set and they all seem generally quite balenced. There are some great ideas in these cards and I would like to see it continued.

[Junkwarriordude]

They add great and amazing support to the already existing Gemini monsters. Plus they look adorable. I Would love to see the complete Archetype and Zazu can I showcase your archetype when it's finished in my videos?

 

Anyway Kudos

[Zazubat]

The set has been finished. I have added 6 new: Dragon, Saber-toothed Cat, Barong, VALLEY and FOREST

Aww, they're so cute xD 

Anyway, these things are unique, not just the usual "Graveyard = Second deck. GO!" archetypes you see nowadays. Also, they're all Gemini monsters, so you get cool points for that. Onto the actual review. 

 

Manticore: Nice support for any Gemini Deck, as you don't need the extra Normal Summon. It's Gemini effect seems to make it be the engine for this archetype.

 

Griffin: This seems to be the sniper of this archetype, able to take out troublesome monsters for this archetype. DEF points seem a little high for a level 3 monster.

 

Chimera: A very good solidly made card, and works well with the archetype. Go with Manticore and you'll have a nice little tribute engine going.

 

Dragon:Unique in the sense that it changes it's structure when it is Normal Summoned. Seems to be the herald for the boss monster of this archetype (Which I assume is Barong.)

 

Sabertooth:The protector of the archetype, as it protects it's pals from target effects. Typo where it says "You cand return 1 "Tiny Troublemaker" (bold is wrong :P)

 

Barong:A nice 2500 beater, able to increase the ATK of it's pals at the expense of it's own. A nicely made card that I could see in today's metagame. I don't think it would be alive long enough for it to return to the Extra Deck as it's ATK decays over time, but if this card is protected it should be a gamechanger in the right hands.

 

Overall, a very nice set of cards which I would like to use. 10/10

Thanks for the review. I'm gonna lower Griffin's DEF a little bit, and fix the "cand" to "can".

 

EDIT: Put up the fixes to them.
