PSY-Wave [written/link] [9/?]

[(GigaDrillBreaker)]

Well, the time has come for this to be in this section, rather than singles. This thread will contain the Psy-Waves I made previously (some with a few edits) as well as whatever else I add on to the archetype. With a few exceptions, I will continue at the rate of 1 card per day, so if anyone is interested in this, it ought to be fun to check in on this thread each day to keep up.

PSY-Wavedot

This signature is unprecedented. After running the Cyverse Decoder XVII Simulation 10ⁿ times, our results are confirmed.

This card's name is also treated as "PSY-Wavedot" while it is face-up on the field or in the Graveyard. If this monster is in a linked zone: You can tribute this card to target 1 Link 2 or lower PSY-Wave Link Monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon it to the monster card zone this card occupied.

[spoiler=Spells/Traps]

PSY-Wavetest

Spell/Quick-play

Immediately after this effect resolves, Link Summon 1 "PSY-Wave" Link Monster using monsters you control, with a link number up to 1 higher than the materials used.

 

Wave Simulation

Spell/Field

As long as this Field Spell Card remains face-up on the field, the Monster Card zone adjacent to it is treated as Linked. Increase the Link Number of any Link Monster in this card's Linked Zone by 1. If this card would be removed from the field by a card effect while it has a linked monster: Destroy the linked monster instead. You can only Link Summon to zones linked by "Wave Simulation" once per turn.

 

As is apparent just by looking at the cards, PSY-Waves are designed around chaining together link summons to build advantage and overpower the opponent with powerful bosses. Wavegrapher is designed so that, while primarily working to summon Wavemaestro (and future options I come up with) it also can summon the Metalfoe fusion monsters, as well as the extremely hype and incredibly dope Ultimate Axon Kicker (which also can use Psy-Framelord Zeta from the opponent's field as fusion material!). The Wavedot is crucial to the way the archetype works. As a normal monster, it is boosted by techs such as Rescue Rabbit, Daigusto Emeral, Unexpected Dai, Link Spider, and Painful Decision. Its other stats open up things like Tri-Wight, Emergency Teleport, Telekinetic Power Well, and Recurring Nightmare. This synergy makes the dot readily available and easy to summon, fueling the repeated Link Summons.

Added 3 new cards! The main deck monster "PSY-Waveblip" which can substitute for the wavedot in fusion summons, as well as accelerate plays from the graveyard, and two spell cards.

 

Wavetest increases the deck's ceiling, allowing it to play Link 2 monsters off of only 1 material, or even summon the oppressive PSY-:Linkjammer at spell speed 2 to disrupt a play!

 

Their field spell, Wave Simulation, gives you an additional linked zone to work off of, while also increasing the value of any adjacent link monsters, helping you to ladder through them more efficiently. A link 1 monster adjacent to Wave Simulation can be used to summon Wavegrapher, through use of PSY-Wavetest, speeding up the deck significantly and leaving material on board for future summons.
