Kingdom Xathers Posted May 4, 2012 Report Share Posted May 4, 2012 ITT: I will be expanding the "Battleguard" ("Barbarian" in the OCG) Series into an Archetype. I have a number of ideas already, but some of these may stay blank until I can think of a suitable effect for them. Just like the original two, the this Archetype focuses on effects that are applied when other Battleguards are present. EDIT: Hmmm... I may need a bit of help with this, so if anyone's willing to give good advice, that'd be appreciated.

Toffee. Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Highland Battleguard seems interesting. Mostly due to the fact one could tech it outside of a Battleguard deck, considering its a weird Black Rose. Also, Tailored Battleguard seems a little out of place among this archetype, unless you plan to make an Equip or two. Link to comment

[b]An interesting thought.[/b] Also, Tailored Battleguard seems a little out of place among this archetype, unless you plan to make an Equip or two. [b]TBH, Tailored Battleguard was sorta meant as a counter/parody to Inzektors, in that its primary effect is similar to Dragonfly's, while the second effect for its discard cost could be used to steal your opponent's Equipped Gigamantis/Hornet. Weird, I know, but now that you've mentioned it, I may make a few Equip Spells for the Battleguards. [/b] [/quote] Well, thanks for the comments, Armz. Time for me to get back to the drawing board.

Toffee. Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Ahh, so that would explain Tailored. Still, you might want to include at least 1 or 2 Equips, so it doesn't seem so random. I mean even that Nordic Alfar guy, Dverg, recovers Nordic Relics, and hes the only Nordic monster who does so, just so it justifies Nordics being part of the Relics even more. Link to comment
Kingdom Xathers Posted May 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2012 Added two Equips, a Field, and an Xyz. Link to comment
