Aura Witch

[Tojin]

Naturally, they have several themed equips, all with "Aura" in their name that (mostly) can only be equipped to Aura Witches. The equips are also themed around some of the current meta archetypes (Shaddoll, Qliphort, etc). The archetype is reasonably good, but not meta, though the Qliphort aura is Limited, due to it being both generic (i.e., can be equipped to a non-Aura Witch) and very, very good (500 ATK and Towers-esque immunity at the cost of a discard and 800 LP during End Phases).

Sense of Right

[Tinkerer]

A set of Psychic-type monsters who have the ability to move around the field. They have passive effects that get better the further to the right they are and they move to an empty adjacent right space during the end phase. The catch is that if the monster is ALREADY in the rightmost zone, it gets destroyed during the end phase instead. To counteract this, the archetype also has a good amount of effect negation which can be used against either player.
