Algorhythm Archetype (14/14)

[Atypical-Abbie]

Algorhythm is an Archetype of Cyberse monsters with various Attributes and Levels. They focus on Rhythm Counters, which allow them to be treated as multiple monsters for a Link Summon, meaning that you can use a single monster for a LINK-2 monster should it have 1 Rhythm Counter on them, or a LINK-4 should it have 3 Rhythm Counters on it.

 

Each monster are quite different from each other, though each have a clause allowing them to be used as stated above, though not all can gain Rhythm Counters on their own, and their support cards Upbeat and Playlist help making many Rhythm Counters. They don't have a lot of ATK and DEF, though Flowchart can help with that, and with their boss monster Null Failure, they can easily take care of the most powerful monsters.

 

Their name is a portmanteau of Algorithm and Rhythm, and they are based on various concepts regarding to computing and algorithms, as well as concepts relating to rhythm and music.
