[AGM/Written] Yollohcoatl: Field Spell triggered swapping Trapmons! (17/17)

[spoiler=AGM Prompt]

EARTH Winged Beasts that have a style similar to Aztec statues.

 

They all have a single unique mechanic where, if a field spell is activated, they shift from their monster state to being a continuous traps or back. The gimmick there being that they stick to the same column when moving from monster zone to spell/trap zone, so if the other slot is blocked off, they can't transform.

 

They have a high swarming capacity and like to trade off their field spells for each other with their offensive ones doing things based on how many Winged Beasts you control (i.e. "winged beast monsters you control gain 100 attack for each + Armades effect) while the defensive ones do things based on your continuous traps (i.e. "you take 200 less damage for every continuous trap you control").

 

The deck also has some trap monsters that, when activated, typically limit how your opponent goes about making plays (i.e. Magician's Valkeria effects, limited # of spell/trap activations, etc.), but only for the turn. These monsters also Set themselves every time a new field spell is activated, so they can work multiple times on the field.

 

Despite the high potential of these guys, their biggest strength is also their greatest downfall: field spells. Their transformation effect isn't optional, so your opponent can very easily mess everything up just by activating 1 field spell.

 

 

So, first off, flavour. Decided to name the monsters after South American birds, with one exception, and the Trapmons after Aztec Gods, again with one exception. Field Spells are named after Aztec city-states in Central America, and as for the other S/T Support...well, I just went with thematically appropriate names.

 

As for the designing, initially went with Psuedo-Trapmons for the Traps, but realized the prompt specified Continuous Traps, so that made life a little difficult in regards to Zone control. Regardless, I pushed on, adding some returning with the main monsters and some Mekk-Knight-esque field manipulation with one of the field spells. Had a bit of difficulty expanding said Field Spells given the prompts specifications, but I think it went decently. Also went a little risky and made HOPT as little of a thing as possible on the Trapmons and main monsters, in order to try and take advantage of swapping in and out of being a Trap or not.

 

Basic plays are setting up for Tribute Summoning Serpent, and then attacking. I hope I encaptured the swarming aspect of the archetype, but one thing I definitely did do is leave the field (haha hilarous joke xd) open for your opponent to activate one or more Field Spells to mess up the whole system. Like most of my AGM sets, its designed to work just as well in the AGM format as in Link Format, so hopefully I achieved that too.
