Astral Beast Archetype (18/18)

[Atypical-Abbie]

Astral Beast is an Archetype of Pyro/LIGHT and DARK monsters with various Levels. They focus on Chaos-based banishing from the GY, and sometimes other places too, as well as a little bit of top Deck manipulation, they have a Link and a Synchro Monster as well, though their main gimmick is that they are both LIGHT and DARK at the same time while on the field and in the GY, and that you want to give them as many other Attributes as possible, the main Level 7 and higher bosses being your best targets for this as they doubles their ATK and DEF while there are 6 or more Attributes on the field.

 

Along with that, using their Trap monster, Astral Beast Constellation, a card that Special Summons itself with any 2 Attributes, you can give that card to your opponent and ram right into it, along with its effect triggering, making for great damage as well as recovery options.

 

They are based on the astrological signs, and concepts related to astrology and stargazing in general, the reason for them being Pyro has a few reasons, one being that I asked for ideas and was requested to make them Pyro, and because stars are basically giant balls of fire, so Pyro makes some kind of sense, and you don't see Chaos Pyro Decks being much of a thing.
