Imaginary Beast - Reviving an Archetype #4 (19/19)


Atypical-Abbie

Recommended Posts

Imaginary Beast is an Archetype consisting of monsters with various types, Attributes and Levels. They focus on forcing monsters to be Special Summoned in Defense Position and Synchro Summoning. Each Main Deck monster has an effect that forces both players to Special Summon monsters from their Extra Deck in Defense Position, except Link Monsters (previously they had no exception, but due to new rules, this was added for balance reasons). The Synchros each have an effect that activates when Synchro Summoned in Defense Position, and can attack while in Defense Position. Newly added is a bonus should they also be linked with a Link Monster.

 

The name is a portmanteau of image and imaginary, and each monster is an animal and a photographic related term. I enjoyed the creative process of this when I first made them, I wish I had artistic skills so I could draw what these weird animals would look like, but I don't sadly, so I hope you can get all the animals I chose. When it came to what was newly added, I focused on making them work with Link Monsters, while they are anti-Attack Position, I felt that they needed a Link Monster to really work as originally intended, so their speed, searchabilty and ease of play was focused on, keeping the same idea of using the opponent's turn and interrupting their plays in tone still.
