WOW OKAY

Sabre Dancer is great alternative if your opponent kills the Fusion Tag target/Kaleido, and honestly synergizes so well with kaleido along with decent in and of itself...I mean, it wasn't needed, but it is just good. The monsters and Trap are alright with Foolish Burial and padding out the archetype a little but THAT FUSION SPELL THOUGH. It truly renders Fusion Tag mostly useless, allowing to Summon literally ANY Lunalight as long as you have 2 in the hand.

I just wish there was a bit more going first support, but hey, you can't have everything. The closest thing to bad here is Bird and the Trap and both have their uses.

[Atypical-Abbie]

Been a while since I have touched Lunalight, so can't say much, but overall seems like they have some good cards, but nothing that screams that they are going to be the new meta. The Shaddoll Fusion clone is fun, Lunalight Emerald Bird is pretty good, Lunalight Yellow Marten seems decent too, Lunalight Sabre Dancer is one of those I don't know about, Lunalight Serenade Dance seems kind of bad though, but seems designed to be like Shaddoll cards where it sends as a card effect, so maybe that's useful?

[Tinkerer]

Honestly, I wanna see an Eyes-Restrict deck use that continuous trap.

 

I could definitely see Marten/Fusion becoming a random little turn-2 splashable OTK engine for dark decks (2 Marten, 1-3 Fusion, 1/1 Cat/Panther Dancer).  Dangers can trigger Marten from hand, Armageddon Knight can dump it from Deck, Predaplants can search Fusion immediately... I mean, if you're gonna swing for game, this is a pretty easy way to do it, huh?

[...] Lunalight Serenade Dance seems kind of bad though, but seems designed to be like Shaddoll cards where it sends as a card effect, so maybe that's useful?

They finally have a Lunalight Perfume searcher, beyond that this can search their new Spell/Trap searcher.

 

The Fusion is nice, I guess if you cannot access Lunalight Kaleido Chick or Lunalight Fusion this is neat, though that sounds unlikely, well at the very least you can Fusion Summon it to trigger the searchers to go into Lunalight Perfume, which can search all their monsters.

The two new main deck monsters are a Spell/Trap searcher, which is also a Zephyros the Elite clone, in that regard it sounds like a better distributed (though only once per copy revival) version of Salamangreat Falco.

Lunalight Emerald Bird is yet another Serenade triggering card and worth 2 materials for a Fusion Summon, beyond that Serenade's cost triggers its floating effect as well.

Lunalight Serenade Dance is just good, now Foolish Burial of Goods is a kind of E-Call, in that it can just pull any maindeck monster like Kaleido Chick and as mentioned above, even if you draw it it is hardly dead.

The Fusion Spell can substitute Kaleido Chick (which one can definitely use for their theme'd Miracle Fusion as 2 Materials and if the opponent does not controla monster) and is searchable by the first new maindeck monster.

 

A really solid wave of support, not a meta relevant archtype, though definitely usable and an interesting Fusion/Pendulum archtypes.

Edit: They also have Fire Formation - Tenki as yet another 3-of searcher.

Honestly their main issue is to get out a Link monster, without too much investment.

I forgot Tiger (their Scale 5 Pendulum) only has a soft OPT clause, so Lunalight Yellow Marten can easily get you enough Link Materials.

[The Warden]

@@The Highlander Unfortunately Perfume cannot be searched, as, for a reason I cannot fathom, it is Luna Light Perfume, so it's not a Lunalight card. And unfortunately it does not have a "This card is always treated as a Lunalight card" clause, so it is still very much unsearchable.

[(GigaDrillBreaker)]

Sabre dancer is fine for pushing otks but I literally couldn't care less.

 

Yellow marten is funking great.

 

Emerald bird is funking great. Pretty sure it's the best card in the deck.

 

I'll look at the others when I have a chance, keyholder just arrived so TIME TO FUCKIN WORK

 

EDIT: serenade dance feels meh as a trap, but discarding it with emerald bird is insane value

 

Lunalight fusion is fine. I think I still prefer fusion substitute since this can't be searched by black sheep. Also this can't summon dragostapelia which is big oof
