Dream Archetype ( New and Improved! )


Ultimagamer

Recommended Posts

This was an archetype I thought of a while ago based around counter spreading and level modulation similar to that of Mecha Phantom Beasts. 

The first time around, I didn't make it so great. I wasn't as knowledgable when it comes to card design and PSCT 

 

I'll be updating based on feedback so please leave your thoughts down below :D

You posted most of the cards twice.

The "during either player's turn" clause in the text is not needed if they already have (Quick Effect)" in their text.

IMO Queen is the maindeck MVP. At first thought Knight would be good as a 1-of for the steal, but then I read that Queen does the stealing better. Sucks that you cannot make any Synchro with Queen + Mouse alone, though.

A hard OPT on the Spell/Trap searching effect of Citizen may be the most fair thing to do, otherwise you could Summon multiples and grab a card for each.

Not quite sure if the core effect should read as "This card gains 1 Level for each Dream Counter on it". Need to look for some references.

Dunno if I would bother with running Production at all. Would need to do some tests to check the deck's capabilities for generating the counters.

Beast, Fiend and Dragon are highly destructive, wow. I guess running Knight and the Level 5 or lower monsters may be profitable after all. Not to mention you can play with the Level modulation for accessing them with only Level4 or lower monsters, reducing the need of the Level5+ in the maindeck that can increase the risk of dead hands.

 

Overall, they look really good, IMO. At worst you drop big punches and break boards with Queen, their archetype BLS, at best you control the board with Beast, Fiend and/or Dragon.
