Lightforce - Forming an Archetype #36 (12/12)

Recommended Posts

Lightforce is an Archetype of Level 4 Thunder/LIGHT monsters with 0 DEF. They focus on Link and Xyz Summoning and banishing cards face-down from the hand. Each monster has two effects, with the last one giving an effect to a Thunder Link or Xyz Monster if it's used as a material for its Summon. Their playstyle involves using these effects to quickly put out more monsters or their Spells/Traps, which can then banish cards from the hand face-down, and as all the Extra Deck monsters have an effect that boosts their ATK for each face-down banished card, this helps that too.

 

For drawpower, using Crown along side Thunder Queen works well, as you can put your banished cards on top of your Deck easily with her effect. Along with that, Gloves has two effects that make both players draw, as well as banishing an opponent's card from their hand, so using Thunder Queen here too works well.

 

I chose to make them Thunder, as I thought that Warriors would be too boring, I could have made them multiple Types, but as there has just been new Thunder support cards, I figured I would jump into that with a new Archetype. They are based on a fantasy kingdom, having servants and advisers to the king and queen, along with their tools and weapons. The monsters and the Spells/Traps are also all related to each other, for example Mage and Wand are connected, and the original Sword is connected to Knight of course.
