Atypical-Abbie Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Translucent Dragon is an Archetype of Wyrm-Type/LIGHT monsters which all share this line: "Cannot be targeted for an attack, but if the only monsters you control are "Translucent" monsters, they can attack you directly." Their playstyle focuses on making your opponent attack you directly for their various effects. More to come.

Cirrus Posted March 6, 2015 Report Share Posted March 6, 2015 The archetype looks very neat; although it seems like you'd die rather easily and in unexpected ways, so deckbuilding is a little more unconventional. The monster lineup looks mostly solid, except for Ilrad, who looks mildly undesirable to summon. Buffing him a little wouldn't be bad (increase the timing window of summon sligtly but not the cost, maybe?). Turbidity looks okay, but is kind of mediocre as a Normal Trap - it could use a slight buff also (maybe elevate it to Counter Trap status and give it an activation condition, but that seems to reduce function slightly too; alternatively give it some sort of defensive buff). Much respect for always having elegantly designed archetypes that function without a million lines of text on each monster... well, usually. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
