This deck relies heavily on monster effects, and plays without any spells, which is quite obscure.....

Obviously, because at any given time of the duel, you're always going to control a S/T's.

Spell cards that do not stay on the field would work with the archetype (mst, galaxy cyclone, rota, raigeki, dark hole, etc.), but the intent of the deck was not to be able to play with set S/T's. I thought that was a decent drawback to effects like shield and bow, which would be overpowered if you could also run a full field of S/T's. Frog monarchs did it for a while.
