I like it. The theme is pretty cool and original. I like the execution as well. I am not sure how well a pure defender deck would fare in the current meta, as I'm not up to date anymore, but I can see how strong and yet balanced the cards are. They do lack a bit of synergy, but nothing dramatic to be honest.

     Cool archetype, I do like the idea and the execution is pretty good, but I think that it has 2 small problems, battle survivability and kill power. battle survivability because most of these monsters can just be run over by Danger or some salamangreat and this archetype doesn't have access to consistency tools like duality or demise to get mirror shield or other similar battle destruction protection, even if you have access to extravagance.  This wouldn't be a problem but I realized that Isolde is important in building this deck, even though something tells me this deck is more anti-meta than meta.

I forgot about my other point though which was that this deck doesn't have kill power. Anyways, this archetype just doesn't seem like it has access to a kill option like salamangreats, and gives your opponent time to come back. But this is still a great archetype and I think it is really well made.(This archetype should probably be moved to advanced multiples.)
