Anarchist Monk - Forming an Archetype #41 (13/13)

[Atypical-Abbie]

Anarchist Monk is an Archetype of Spellcaster/EARTH Level 4 monsters. They focus on banishing monsters from your opponent's GY, Xyz Summoning and using Anarchist Monk Ranshin for various effects. Most of the monsters have an effect that banishes from your opponent's GY or gives an effect to an Xyz Monster.

Their playstyle revolves around banishing from your opponent's GY and Xyz Summoning their boss monster Reborn Ranshin, which can be done in two ways, either 3 monsters or 1 monster depending on the right conditions, and if you used Ranshin for its Xyz Summon, you get to equip Khakkhara which is an Equip Spell that is able to boost its ATK by 2000, but reduces that amount for each monster in your opponent's GY, playing into their general playstyle.

The Archetype itself is based on Buddhism, as Ranshin is based on a Buddhist monk, so figured that only made sense. Khakkhara is what the staff Ranshin holds is called, so wanted to make that important. So it's been 2 years since the last one of these, not because I didn't want to make one, but simply because the random number generator I use to generate a number never picked the option for making a new Forming an Archetype or Reviving an Archetype until this point, so I have actually wanted to make this one for a while.
