H/V Algorithm: (Ritual spell) This can be used to ritual summon a “H/V” ritual monster from your hand. You must also tribute monsters from your hand or field with combined lvls equal to or more than the lvl of the summoned monster. You may banish this from your grave to place 3 Holo counters on a “H/V” monster you control (quick effect).

 

H/V Loop Ritual: (Continuous spell) You may ritual summon “H/V” ritual monsters from your hand without using a ritual spell. If you activate this effect, you must tribute “H/V” monsters from your hand or field with combined lvls equal to or more than the lvl of the summoned monster. Each time a “H/V” monster is ritual summoned, place a Holo counter on this. If this has 3 Holo counters on this, destroy this and add a “H/V” card from your deck to your hand except “H/V Loop Ritual.”

 

H/V Binary Ritual: (Ritual spell) This can be used to ritual summon up to 2 “H/V” ritual monsters from your hand.

If you do, place a Holo counter on the summoned monster for each monster tributed. If a “H/V” monster is targeted by an attack, you may activate this card from your hand. You may banish this from your grave (quick effect): Special summon a “H/V” ritual monster from your grave and place a Holo counter on it.

 

This was basically my attempt to make a decent ritual archetype. So far, the biggest weakness is still hand advantage, so any ideas for that would be helpful. The only draw card is “H/V Rewind Function,” which doesn’t really cut it.
