What's so special about Rare Fish? I'm adding some glitter. [12/19-22?]

Rare Fish

 

"Fusionist" + "Enchanting Mermaid"

 

This comparatively weak monster requires 2 Fusion Material Monster. One of which requires 2 material monsters.

This means that Rare Fish is among the worst 4 material monsters in the game if not the absolute worst. Good thing its OCG exclusive, right? It's on Duel Portal now too!

 

I actually like Rare Fish's art, which is its only redeeming quality outside of being BAIT for instant fusion and metamorphosis.

 

I am in the process of creating an archetype to make Rare Fish and the other Fish-Type Fusions playable, hopefully they'll become borderline competitive. BUT I NEED COMMUNITY FEEDBACK!

Issues and Solutions:

1. How will I Summon these Fish-Type Fusions?

    [spoiler=By going fishing, duh.][spoiler=Skilled Fisher]

 

[spoiler=Lore]

M: A player can only control 1 "A Rather Skilled Fisher". (1) Once per turn you can reveal this card in your hand to return a face-up Continuous Spell or Pendulum Spell on the field to the owner's deck, and if you do, Special Summon this monster. (2) When this monster is Summoned: you can reveal a Non-Effect Fish-Type monster from your Extra Deck, and if it has Material Monsters listed in its card text: you can add 1 appropriate Monster from your deck or graveyard to your hand; it cannot be used as a Material Monster this turn except for the Summon of a Fish-Type monster. Shuffle the remaining cards into the deck.

[spoiler=Lore]

M: (1) After an effect resolves that revealed a Fish-Type monster from the Extra Deck: you can Special Summon this monster (from your hand). (2) When this card is Summoned: you can reveal 1 Non-Effect Fish-Type monster in your Extra Deck to your opponent, then apply 1 of the following:

? If the revealed monster has Material Monsters listed in its card text: Tribute 1 "Fisher" monster you control and send from your field or hand to the graveyard 1 of the appropriate Material monsters, then Special Summon the revealed monster; It gains 700 ATK.

? Reveal the top 5 cards of your deck, you can add from among those revealed cards 1 WATER monster with a Level that is less than the level of the revealed monster.

[spoiler=Casual Fisher]

 

[spoiler=Lore]

M: 1) You can discard this card from your hand to add 1 "Umi" from your deck to your hand. (2) While there is a face-up "Umi" on the field: you can move this face-up card to the graveyard to Special Summon a Non-Effect Fish-Type Fusion monster from your graveyard.

(2) Fish-Type Fusion monsters gain 500 ATK and DEF. Also, your Non-Effect Fish-Type Fusion monsters cannot be removed from the field by the effect of a card your opponent controls. 

 

 

 

[spoiler=Naive Fisher][spoiler=Lore]When this monster is Normal Summoned or flipped face-up: Reveal 1 Level 4 or lower Non-Effect Fish-Type monster in your Extra Deck to your opponent, then apply 1 of the following: ? Add from your deck to your hand 1 appropriate Fusion Material Monster.

? Tribute this monster, then Special Summon the revealed monster.

"Fishing" allows you to search for Material Monsters and/or Fusion Summon using only 1 appropriate Fusion Material (and no Polymerization).
