Wiretugs

[Uggla6]

This is a small set I created to complete an archetype for the AGM format that was first created by @@Draconus297 himself in the Generics sections back in Mar 2016 (https://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/topic/348981-agm-generics-project/?p=6824896).

 

Lore-wise they remind me of little annoying, but deadly, virus computer bugs that spring up out of nowhere, are very hard to remove, and can cause havoc to your computer by swarming it from installing more and more viruses once the first one is downloaded.

Those cards are here in the spoiler.

They are a bunch of Level 2 Earth Cyberse-Type Flip Effect monsters. They all have hand, grave, and flip effects that allows them to swarm the field and create disruptions for your opponent. They do need some help triggering more effects without your opponent's help, generating damage, dealing with opponent's big beaters, and floodgates. With no S/T or Extra Deck support, that is where my focus fell upon.

Wiretug Encryption

Quick-play Spell

Apply this effect depending on whose turn it is.

● Your turn: All “Wiretug” monsters you currently control are unaffected by your opponent’s card effects this turn.

● Opponent's turn: Special Summon 1 “Wiretug” monster from your hand, and if you do, face-down monsters you currently control are unaffected by your opponent’s card effects this turn.

 

Wiretug Backdoor

Normal Trap

If all monsters you control are in face-down Defense Position (min 1), you can activate this card from your hand. Target 1 face-down Defense Position monster you control; change it to face-up Defense Position, then if you flipped face-up a Flip Effect Monster with this effect, you can select 1 face-up card your opponent controls and negate its effects until the End Phase.

 

 

 

There are 2 synchros. One that is easy to make all while helping trigger effects and keep board presence. The other is a large beater, board wipe, double dmg, piercing dmg, and a book of moon effect, but it is hard to say with how slow it is if the large investment is worth it. The field spell gives an extra normal summon, closes the window of activation for your opponent during flip summon, and give a nice, but unnecessary stat boost. The quick-play spell helps protect your vulnerable monsters with blanket protection. The hand trap/trap helps get you out of tricky situations where you need to trigger a flip effect or need to negate a critical card (a starter or a floodgate).
