(Written) "hon of the Bonds" Archetype

Nakahon calls to mind the effect for the first time, and, with the low ATK of the archetype, I am really concerned about the usability of those effects. Two of the tributing monsters aren't as useful, and the third one is broken as a whole, however the last two work nicely with the theme of the archetype. Actually, nevermind. I just realized they can tribute themselves....rapidly increasing their usefulness. Anyhow, this card's effect....eh. I mean, it is useful...if you get it out in the first place. I'm expecting at least 2 other cards going into Summoning this card, so it wouldn't be worth it.

 

Yurahon as a highish ATK so the tributing isn't such a big problem, however the level modulation is just sweet. Nice work for a tuner! I just wish it was less generic, as I expect it to be easily splashed into many Synchro Decks, as all you need is a monster with 1600 or more to tribute in order to Summon this card (Garnet anyone?).

 

Kurahon scares me. Considering how easily these guys send to the Graveyard, you get a free summon every time these guys are tributed, or heck, any way they go to the Graveyard. While the swarming definitely helps, it helps too much, and is in need in HOPT, or Summoning restrictions. Preferably the latter.

 

First thing to note about Tamahon is the fact that the means of Summoning isn't an effect; It's a condition. An effect would be "During your Main Phase: You can..." as this effect currently works like BLS, and doesn't activate. Destruction works well, and, while the second effect is useful when it comes to Fusion Summoning, you only have 1 Fusion, limiting this card's usefulness. 

 

Fukahon is great in terms of searching, but I wish this archetype had a better method of filling up your field. Yes, making a lot of cards can be an overload, but you need a greater focus if you make less cards, especially as this is a difficult to pull off theme.

 

Hikarihon is a great powerhouse for the archetype, but I feel it is too generic. Perhaps limit it to the type of the archetype?

 

Yamihon actually works really well with the theme, as it restocks hand advantage while at the same time not guaranteeing it, and recycling. Great card.

 

Kazehon is kind of weak, if I am honest. I mean, Torrential Tribute is a thing, but this card is restricted by cards and it banishes quite a bit. Make it do something else, perhaps beneficial to the archetype itself?

 

Honoohon is even less useful, as it can deal damage by tributing at least 3 cards, and while shuffling banish cards could be useful, it isn't in the most part, as all it does is thin out your deck even less.

 

Now, I will talk about the Extra Deck monsters as a whole: Yes, there effects are okay, pretty good, actually, except the cost for them is too high, as this deck cannot replenish them enough. You have one card which swarms and the entire archetype would rely on it as it is far too fast, so you need to balance it out more and speed out the deck more evenly.

 

Great concept, just needs a little buffing and balancing throughout.

Bump. Add HOPT clause to Kurahon and changed some effects of the Spell/Traps. Add "Mizuhon of the Bonds", "Chihon of the Bonds", and "Ruyahon of the Bonds" to the archetype. More monsters coming later!
