SCP

[The Nyx Avatar]

Welcome to a post-apocalyptic world where the human race is on the verge of extinction and only a select few exist. Remember The Last Warrior from Another Planet? Yeah, basically high Level monsters that lock off the summoning of another monsters while they exist on the field. OK, not really as bad, but something along the lines of "you can only summon 1 monster per turn" (unless you're an SCP monster in which case you can make another one). They have access to Monarch support cards, but not enough speed to really abuse them. There exist smaller Level 4 members that don't lock off summons, but are low power and really only exist to make summoning the Level 6/8/10 bosses faster (a la Edea/Eidos).

 

Just make sure you don't brick because you will have a high tendency of doing so, but if you can get one boss out, you win.

 

There will be more to come, and I can go back and make some edits.

One SERIOUS question, because I'm not searching-is the Old Man in those pictures? Because I want to review this archetype so bad, but that thing's face has only just stopped being Xeroxed on my eyelids and I'd rather not have a repeat performance. 

 

But the Archetype's theme seems okay, and I do have some thoughts on the Spells/Traps.

 

 

Revelation, extra Normal Summoning, and Deck movement. Could actually make Recycle usable tech here-use Recycle to load whatever card you need to the bottom of the Deck, use SQUAAAAAAAADD PUT 'EM IN A (SCP-876 "The) COFFIN to move it to the top, then use SCP-079 F'N WINDOWS 98 to draw it up. Simple and smart. Still think we can talk about how to properly word that Normal Summon effect, but that's nitting at picks.

 

Draw 3 times a turn today by banishing an SCP! Shoot, this might make an engine all its own. 

 

Also more Eye of Wdjat and smaller Mind on Air. May help the SCPs, I don't know, but knowing your opponent's hand and working around it's the reason Mind Crush was popular way back when. Good on ya. 3 of. 

 

Yeah, nah.

 

This is a field-less Snatch Steal on an Advanced Mutlitple Set. Halving ATK and DEF is LAUGHABLE.

 

Get that no-monsters-clause all the way off this card. The SCP can have their Comic Hand. Paleozoics should not.

 

3 of anywez though, cause hella broken.

 

SCP-087 is a staircase.

 

How this searching out and Special Summoning other "SCP-O87" monsters? I'll assume the numbers in both places are mishaps, don't really know that much on the monsters.

 

But Search, Summon-on destruction, and 300 ATK? Solid 3 of.

This is a really strong archetype. Like monarch replacement level, if True Draco wasn't a thing as Master Piece doesn't really care about the 1 summon per turn. Someone already caught that hard Snatch Steal. If you still want to make it powerful, make a cost revealing a SCP monster thus restricting it somewhat to the archetype. Also this archetype is huge, but there are small engines that will be stolen and added to decks like Monarchs, Speedriods, etc.

 

Side note the numbers are hella confusing. And maybe I'm missing something, but the set doesn't seem all that cohesive with itself.

 

Also hardcore these 3 engines are the only things that would ever be used and they'd be stolen for side deck material:

 

3 SCP- 065 "Possessive Mask"

 

*Used for a field-less snatch steal of 3. Monarchs, Paleo, Yosenju, True Draco, and a ton of other decks. Honestly this would be a stable in almost every deck going 2nd.

 

OR

 

3 SCP Containment Breach
1-2 SCP - 682 "Hard-to-Destroy Reptile"

 

*This is like a better Artifact Sanctum version.

 

OR

 

3 SCP - 049 "Plague Doctor"
1 SCP-860 "Blue Key"
1 SCP-860-2
1 SCP - 079 "Old Al"

 

*This is like a one card lock and deck thinner with an added bonus of the initiator being a side kick F0 clone.

 

*** SCP - 079 "Old Al" If someone wanted they could run all the engines (12-13 cards) above and main 3 of these, because this isn't a hard Pot of Greed. (I'd recommend making it a normal spell with the draw effect and then banish from graveyard to get the 2nd effect.)

 

Just watch some of the interactions for outside the archetype abuse. And check out some of my sets from my signature when you get a chance.

 

Well I made a decklist for a pure verision:

 

Monsters (9):
3 SCP - 049 "Plague Doctor"
2 SCP-860-2
2 SCP - 682 "Hard-to-Destroy Reptile"
1 SCP - 106 "The Old Man"
1 SCP - 173 "The Statue"
Spells (18):
3 SCP - 065 "Possessive Mask"
3 SCP - 079 "Old Al"
2 SCP - 860 "Blue Key"
1 SCP - 896 "The Coffin"
1 Reinforcement of the Army
1 The Monarchs Stormforth
2 Cosmic Cyclone
1 Raigeki
2 Dark Hole
1 Dimensional Fissure
1 Upstart Goblin
Traps (13):
3 SCP Containment Breach
3 Solemn Strike
1 Solemn Warning
1 Macro Cosmos
1 Soul Drain
2 Lost Wind
2 Quaking Mirror Force

 

Just a strong control variant of the deck. Could play Allure of Darkness, but 9 targets seemed a little low, but definitely viable.

 

PS Doesn't it seem pointless to put the once per turn summon on both players unless you control a SCP on the SCP monsters... The effect only applies when they are on the field and thus they will nearly never not release you from the restriction (unless some weird name change thing happens).

Changed 035 to having to control face-up "SCP" card with a different name instead. Also, the numbers ARE part of the name. The statue is usually just referred to as 173, as these are all based on beings and items from SPC Containment Breach.

The 1 summon limit on some of these is pretty harsh lockdown for non mirror matches, it can single handedly brick quite a few decks, if it had a cost or the monsters had low stats it would feel a bit more reasonable, just my opinion though, effects are nice and fitting other than that

Well, considering the prompt for this was to make a Monarch-esque thing (and if you've dealt with SR01 support; yeah, you can figure out how bad this ends up being). Then again, the burden lies on Nyx to have know about what Monarchs are capable of doing nowadays and how these add to them, more/less.

 

But that being said, while the critique here is fine, you technically necrobumped this thread (as it has been inactive since June). For future reference, if a thread has no posts for 2+ weeks (except for stickied ones), please don't post in them. Thanks.
