Laval Support

[Titan403]

This post is my first and is based on my favorite deck. I love their engine but feel they need more to really flow and play as an archetype instead of being abused for their engine in pumping out quasar and the like.

I would really appreciate any constructive criticism being this is my first time designing cards. Any ideas for the cards themes, editing their effects, or new card ideas to add would be highly appreciated. Also any help formatting the effects would be great. I tried my best though don't know the ins and outs of effects. A lot of the effects are formatted in a way to make certain graveyard hits not miss timing.

 

If you would like to duel me, to test the deck, then I would love to go to Duelportal.us to duel using the cardmaker database.

So the art is currently under progress so in the place of the art are other lesser known cards from the archetype.

LAVALS:
This archetype focuses heavily on it's ability to set up the graveyard and manipulate it to control the field and special summon. Currently the archetype can put half the deck into the graveyard, but without a hand or graveyard effects they can't do much without rekindling to bring them back.
 "The main cards that CURRENTLY EXIST are"

"MONSTER:"

 

 

 

When this card is Normal or Flip Summoned: You can target 1 of your banished "Laval" monsters; Special Summon that target.

 

 

 

When this card is sent to the Graveyard, if you have a "Laval" monster in your Graveyard other than "Laval Volcano Handmaiden": You can send 1 "Laval" monster from your Deck to your Graveyard.

 

 

 

If this card is in your Graveyard and you have 3 or more "Laval" monsters with different names in your Graveyard: You can banish this card and 1 other "Laval" monster from your Graveyard to target 1 Set card your opponent controls; destroy that target.

 

 

 

If you have 3 or more "Laval" monsters with different names in your Graveyard, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand).

 

 

 

 

1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner FIRE monsters

You can shuffle 2 "Laval" monsters from your Graveyard into your Main Deck to target 1 card your opponent controls; return it to the hand.

 

1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner FIRE monsters

Once per turn: You can add 1 "Laval" monster from your Deck to your hand, then send 1 "Laval" monster from your hand to the Graveyard.

 

1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner FIRE monsters

When this card is Synchro Summoned: Send 1 card from your hand to the Graveyard. During either player's turn, when this card is targeted by a card effect: You can banish 1 "Laval" monster from your Graveyard; negate the activation, and if you do, destroy the targeting card.

Special Summon from your Graveyard as many FIRE monsters as possible with 200 DEF, but banish them during the End Phase.

 

 

So here are the cards I designed, minus the art (in progress), that I felt would give the archetype the flow and feel it deserves.
