Black Gale [WRITTEN, AGM]

[Tinkerer]

Hello, fine peoples!

 

This AGM archetype (I believe) is the first one that I've done of my own prompts.  It was an old one though, so I don't exactly remember if I had anything in mind when I came up with it, but anyway here's the prompt I was working with:

 

Black Gale

A set of WIND Fiends that are quite tricky. They focus on spinning themselves back into the Deck in order to bounce cards to the Hand and block out the Zones temporary. They also enjoy the light field in order to make direct attacks if their column is empty. Coupled with their direct-attack playstyle, they come equipped with an arsenal of equip spells that not only buffs their limited offensive capabilities, but search whenever the equipped monster is spun.

 

 

First things first though: the deck is probably (on average) too slow, too inconsistent, and too... Equip-happy to be super viable, yet at the same time I cannot really toss this into casual because of its gimmick.  The spam-happy playstyle and tendency to lock the opponent out of spots can actually be pretty ridiculous under the right circumstances and can potentially be used to lock key areas.  Locking the opponent out of the Extra Deck?  Locking them out of field spells?restricting Link Zones?  These cards can help with that.

 

Anyway, enough preliminary jabbering.  On to the cards themselves!
