T.V. Archetype (17/17)

Recommended Posts

T.V. is an Archetype of DARK monsters with various types and Levels. They focus on Fusion Summoning and the use of the card Polymerization for various effects. The Fusion Monsters are boosted various ways if you used Polymerization specifically rather than an alternative or in-Deck version like many other Archetypes use, and the Spell/Trap Cards also boost them if Fusion Summoned with Polymerization. Also, the Fusion Monsters have an effect that triggers if sent from the Extra Monster Zone to the Graveyard. Note that Duel Portal does not have the EMZ yet, so that effect is not usable there, but I had the idea to throw it in as an extra bonus effect to make Remote have multiple uses.

 

Their name stands for TeleVillain, and they are based on various TV genres, and the Spell/Trap Cards are based on various TV concepts. The Fusion Monsters' name the combination of the two Fusion Materials used to Fusion Summon them, which is meant to represent TV shows with multiple genres, and their types reflect the genre they are from, such as Horror being Zombie.

 

I have previously made Archetypes of Decks that use Extra Deck mechanics, who are meant for the new format, that were designed without the need for Link Monsters, with Noistorm for Synchro, Canis Carnivore for Xyzs and Compass Dragon for Pendulums, and now this one for Fusion Monsters to round them out. I will probably not try this in the future as much, but it is an interesting experiment to make something like the previous formats with the new limitations this format presents.

 

Main Deck Monsters:

 

T.V. Thriller
Psychic/DARK
Level 2
You can target 1 Level 4 or lower "T.V." monster you control; return it to the hand, and if you do, Special Summon this card from your hand, then until the end of this turn, this card's name becomes that monster's and replace this effect with that monster's original effects. If this card is sent the GY for the Fusion Summon of a "T.V." Fusion Monster: You can draw 1 card. You can only use each effect of "T.V. Thriller" once per turn.

During the End Phase, if this card is in the GY because it was sent there for a Fusion Summon this turn: You can Special Summon it. You can only use this effect of "T.V. Horror" once per turn.

This is a pretty well-made archetype.

 

The idea is pretty fun. TeleVillians in itself could make for some awesome artwork, considering none of the names really limits the artist to what references they could possibly make.

 

The fact that you're able to use the Fusion Monsters as materials to get back the Polymerization you just used is pretty interesting, considering the archetype revolves around cycling cards around similarly to Predaplants and that you may be able to fit Soul Charge would typically be broken, but with the "if this card is Fusion Summoned by using "Polymerization" and "sent from the extra monster zone to the GY" clauses it balances out. 

 

You put a lot of thought into this, wanting to make a Fusion archetype that would fit into the Link Format without using Link Monsters, and wanted to encourage that through the card effect design. You deserve more attention than this, so I hope <after a month of posting> this lifts your spirits.
