--------------------------------------------------

 

Yeah I actually had this idea in mind...and here it is. Totally preposterous concept, where I have no idea if I balanced this archetype good enough or too much this deck can do nothing. There's a lot of powerful effects, alongside some unnecessary/fun cards. But if I at least spent an hour improvising every card of this archetype, there's bound to be some good attributes. CnC?

Actually a very coherent archetype! With simple name changes these could be put in Realistic Cards, though with some repairs.

 

Bird Jesus' mass bounce effect is pretty OP for how easy it is to summon it with the archetype's keystone.

 

Also, with the effects of cards like Consult the Helix!, the wincon is a bit too easy to reach. On the chance you open Helix Fossil and 3 Consults, and one of the beaters, you FTK if your turn was second. As unlikely as that is, it is possible, and should not be. I would suggest increasing the number of counters needed for victory, or ditch the when a Helix monster destroys a monster to something a bit more difficult. Maybe a specific monster?

Well if Bird Jesus can do that then I might as well tone down Battery Jesus as well. But after all it's an effect worth negating despite the bouncing part. Also, I made it 6 because it was equal to the number of Pokemon you can have on a team, so I dunno if I will change that. And if I do several numerical changes then fixing proper ratios will be difficult and time-consuming. So I'll place the Once per turn clause of Consult the Helix.

 

But thanks for the critique anyways. :D
