Extra Deck Special Summons ONLY [Swift Raider Archetype] *Traps Added! Archetype Complete!*

[Im the prince of the ring!]

Hey guys it's me again ready to post up another archetype. I have another archetype that's completed, but I wanna give it some time. *Hint,hint...it's based on colors*

Anyway, here is the Swift Raider Archetype. Once upon a time, there was a city. The Swift Raiders were types of special Elite force that discouraged any special type of creatures to come into town. It Prefers to things *the normal summon route...* This archetype is centered around discouraging Special Summons from anywhere other than the Extra Deck. Well...Here they are. Remember to like, comment, CnC. BTW...This archetype was an inspiration from the Raid Raptors archetype (hence the name being somewhat similar and its effects being similar...except dealing with normal summons instead of special summons savvy stuff.)

 I added all the cards that I'm putting in for the archetype. This archetype is finished unless stated otherwise. Anyway, remember to comment, like, CnC. Okay...Later!

[Im the prince of the ring!]

I accidently posted this topic in the single Casual. Plz transfer to Casual Multiples.

[Peridank]

As it is... I like this archetype. But it needs something like performapal call so you can add multiple monsters to hand at once... Or just search in general so it can be sped up more. (since its tricky to add multiple cards to hand w/o being op) It reminds me of shaddolls being against ss. In that aspect its good anti-meta. As far as I see the set is good at recycling monsters and spamming (in a sense). Like I said... It just needs a bot more speed... Sorry about not covering the carrs individually.

I'm gonna add some spells and traps later throughout the week. I made a field spell that allows to add Swift Raiders to your hand like the raidraptors. But I'll take your advice and add some more cards that add the monsters to the hand. BUMP.

[Im the prince of the ring!]

BUMP. Updated...Added Spell Cards to the topic. Will add Trap cards soon and add a few more monsters.

[Professor Tetsu]

Overall Impression: 8/10

I think the concept of anti-Special Summon (aside from through the Extra Deck) is a pretty cool concept. In a way, it's sort of like a mix of Evilswarm and Raid Raptors (which is freakin' sweet, might I add). I look forward to seeing the Trap Cards!

 

[hr]

 

Swift Raider - Dust Assassin: 10/10

The card's simplicity is nice to see. Also, it's perfectly balanced. Good work.

 

Swift Raider - Shadow Ninja: 10/10

The balancing is there. I enjoy a properly-balanced card. Also, epic artwork, yo!

 

Swift Raider - Dark Angel: 8/10

When I saw this card, I immediately thought of Constellar Kaus. Not trying to be mean or anything, but that was the first thing to spring to mind. >.<

 

Swift Raider - Wandering Samurai: 10/10

I got a chuckle out of realizing the same force has both a ninja and a samurai. I found that highly amusing. All stupid thoughts aside, the card looks rock-solid.

 

Swift Raider - Vanishing Horseman: 9/10

I feel like Horseman could have a higher ATK and/or DEF, but other than that, not too shabby.

 

[hr]

 

Swift Raider - Dragon Slayer: 8/10

I started typing something else here, truthfully, then I remembered the "other than from the Extra Deck" clause. Still, a very powerful effect for little-to-no real cost. I might have it halve the ATK or something like that, but that's just me. I do like the recycle though. Neat concept.

 

Swift Raider - Dimension Archer: 10/10

No complaints here. I like the effect, the level-to-effect comparison, and the ATK/DEF. Well done.

 

Swift Raider - Abyss Nero: 10/10

This card is freakin' sweet. You balanced it perfectly and you seem to have worked out its kinks. I'm impressed.

 

Swift Raider - Phantom Knight: 10/10

An all-around good card. No real comments here, unfortunately.

 

Swift Raider - Ghoul Reaper: 10/10

I like how this is like Phantom Knight but evolved. Good work. Very interestingly-done. At first, prior to seeing the Spell Cards, I got kind of confused, admittedly, as to how in the heck that'd work. ^^;

 

Swift Raider - Spectre Archfiend:10/10

Yet another evolution! Epic! His effect is fairly powerful, yet so are his summoning conditions. Good work.

 

[hr]

 

Swift Raider - Zai City: 7/10

FIEEELD SPEEELLLL! Ahem. Sorry, I love Field Spell support. And this one ain't too shabby ... but it's not perfect. I know how you're going for "Don't Special Summon if it ain't from the Extra Deck" but I think this Field takes that one step too far. On top of that, look at the effects of your monsters. The very first clause in Zai City pretty much renders all those effects useless. On top of that, I feel like there needs to be some sort of maintenance cost for the Field Spell or the first clause should vanish. That's just my thinking. Other than that, pretty good.

 

Rank-Up-Magic Justice Force: 10/10

No complaints here. Looks like your run-of-the-mill Rank-Up-Magic only archetype exclusive.

 

Rank-Up-Magic Vigilante Force: 10/10

I never would have thought of a card like this. A Rank-Up-Magic that triggers upon battle destruction. Very interesting.

 

Level-Up-Magic Raiders Force: 8/10

I feel like this could be transformed into a Quick-Play Spell to make more use of it.

 

Overall, sweet cards! Might I suggest a Synchro Monster that has protection for your other monsters? I look forward to seeing more cards. n.n

[Im the prince of the ring!]

My last bump. PLZ....have someone else Cnc this archetype.

[ShimoHkun1]

This set appears to be a cool idea to me

I like the concept (because I never got past the second "generation" of yugioh) that this is an idea that can cripple powerful monsters that don't special summon from the extra deck.

Power wise it seems not too op because the strongest monster is 3.2 k
