Running through the cards one by one, i think it's a pretty good looking archetype. Some of the wording on some of the cards is confusing, but i will get to that in a bit. Time to run through what i think about each card:

Vodou Assassin is fine, though i imagine it being put in as a counter to heroes, and being used wtih DNA surguery, but i don't see a problem with it, since cards like it have been around for a while.

Shadow Spirit is again fine, decent effect that can't be hugely abused.

Vodou doll is quite intresting, and i love the concept. The main issue is the archetype has only one internal support for the effect. Which, you might as well use on the opponent's creature anyway. Adding in a card that can lower attack or transfer attack could be a smart idea, and gives it a lot of uses. Does work quite well with forrbidden Garmet and Lance though.

Flame eater is fine, minor burn and a spell back.

Gator is also fine. its a lot unlike most other searchers, but the switch to defence mode effect is worth the special summon from hand.

Priestess seems kinda weak. the negate the opponents effect is good if you can do it on a BLS or REDMD, and the special summon seems to be... ok. I just think it gets a bit outclassed. Not sure how to change it... Maybe an extra 200 attack? That way it isn't exactly weak, but it can't be a brillaint beatdown. At the moment, you are trading a card to pull preistess out, who can then be run over by an Alexandrite dragon or something. Even with the attack changing effects, or protect, you can't rely on them.

Princess, is fine. Good effect for single tribute. And quickly turns into a +1.

Rock Queen... This is one issue i have. Without any effort, since i assume the ideal combo is, Priestess-Rock Queen. Turns rock queen into a 2700 already, on top of pulling back the spell. I would exclude rock queen from getting the bonus, otherwise, she quickly becomes a lot to handle. If you did that, you could probably boost it to a 2400 to compensate.

Pimp King fine. Takes a while to become hugely powerful, 3 spells would be a lot of effort.

Voudue Shaman: I say lower its attack. Since it can turn Rock queen to a 2900 without her effect, and the vannila you made into a pearl... it should only be around 1200 maybe. It's got to be easy to kill when it turns an easy to summon Vannila into a 2600. Plus... normal zombie players using this?

Eina is fine.

Shrunken head is fine.

Vodou skull... I'm struggling to think of a deck that wouldn't synchro or Xyz in the one turn. Meaning, it's kind of weak. I personally think it could be a quick spell to upset Rabbit and tour guide.

Trance of love... the wording confuses me... lots. Since you say 'targeted by Spell Cards of Effect Monster Cards' i think its a typo. The effect is fine, since it probably won't survive for longer than a turn.

Vodou Root: this heads result is increadable, the tails is... crap. A 500 point decrease means that it isn't as big a waste when you get tails. Though, i can imagine this against REDMD

Vodou Witch seems fine. if it lasts long enough to be tributed, then the effect is well deserved, and the losing 500 attack and defence is fair as well i find.

Zambi: It's a zombie Alexandrite. So its fine.

Vodou child: You've made a non flip, and a specific Magical Merchant. Helps loads the grave easily.

Preist is fine, letting easy set up of a rank 5 or of the fusion, with an effect vieler built in. like most of the cards, its fine. Speaking of the fusion.

The fusion: The actual effect is fine... But, you haven;t specificed how to summon it. You've said not to use polymerisation, but you haven't meantion ifs its contact fusion, or VWXYZ style fusion. At the moment, you technically can[['t summon it.

And last, but by no means least, the Xyz: part of me wants to say its OP becuase of the ATK, on top of point blank resistantce to destruction... I would say, make the immune to destruction last as long as it has materials. Like tiras only affecting the whole field. AND, lower its attack to 2600.Since... wind-ups, and other decks capable of doing easy rank 5's, would use this just against inzectors, laughing off hornet, and still being to beat things very quickly. 2600 attack keeps it from going heads above all other rank 5s, and this thing can get easy attack boost from cards like Rock Queen.

so... yeah, my view on the archetype.

Thanks for the feedback I greatly appreciate it since I'm going to be playing with these. Some of the effects I think you just read off the card images. The lore in the spoilers for Priestess, Pimp King, and Trance of Love are different than what's on the image.

I was trying to balance out Vodou Root by giving the tails effect just an ok thing since the first one is really good.
