Prysmic Archetype [WRITTEN] (11/11)

[Tinkerer]

Hello, fine peoples!

I came up with an idea for an archetype and, for once, I actually made it to completion!

On the whole, this isn't really a "new" concept, but it's more of a reimagining of a strategy that Konami's tried a couple times. I wanted to explore it in a way that could help allow it to be used somewhat competitively.

 

The prompt is simple:

An archetype of Rock monsters that have fairly unimpressive effects, but gain powerful secondary quick effects if they're coupled with their Quick-Play Spell "Prysmic White Light". (Conceptually, think Koaki Mieru or Toons except, you know, better. Hopefully.)

 

With all that out of the way, let's start off with the core card:

Prysmic White Light

Quick-Play Spell

Pay 500 LP. You can return this card to your hand instead of sending it to your GY. If this card is sent from the field to the GY: You can add 1 "Prysmic" card from your Deck to your hand except "Prysmic White Light". You can only activate 3 "Prysmic White Light" per turn.

 

Monsters (5)

Prysmic Rath

FIRE **

Rock/Tuner/Effect

If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can Special Summon 1 Level 6 or lower Rock monster from your hand. (Quick Effect): You can return 1 "Prysmic White Light" you control to your hand and target 1 monster your opponent controls; destroy that target and inflict 500 damage to your opponent. If you activate this effect 2 or more times this turn, destroy this card.

1100/200

 

Prysmic Ornery

EARTH ****

Rock/Effect

If this card is Normal Summoned: You can discard 1 "Prysmic" card, then target 1 "Prysmic" card in your GY; add that target to your hand. (Quick Effect): You can return 1 "Prysmic White Light" you control to your hand; Special Summon 1 "Prysmic" monster from your Deck in defense position, but it cannot activate it effects this turn. You can only activate this effect of "Prysmic Ornery" once per turn.

1300/1900

 

Prysmic Yearn

LIGHT 6*

Rock/Effect

If you control "Prysmic White Light" (Quick Effect): You can reveal this card in your hand and pay 500 LP; Special Summon this card. You can only Special Summon 1 "Prysmic Yearn" per turn. If this card is Special Summoned: You can send 1 Rock monster and/or 1 "Prysmic" card from your Deck to the GY. (Quick Effect): You can return 1 "Prysmic White Light" you control to your hand and target 1 face-up card your opponent controls; negate that target's effects until the End Phase. If you negated the effects of a monster by this effect, gain LP equal to half that monster's ATK. If you activate this effect 2 or more times this turn, destroy this card.

2200/700

 

Prysmic Greedy

WIND **

Rock/Tuner/Effect

If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can shuffle 4 Rock monsters and/or "Prysmic" cards from your GY into your Deck; draw 2 cards. You can only activate this effect of "Prysmic Greedy" once per turn. (Quick Effect): You can return 1 "Prysmic White Light" you control to your hand and target 1 Spell/Trap your opponent controls; shuffle that target into the Deck, and if you do, gain 500 LP. If you activate this effect 3 or more times this turn, destroy this card.

500/1600

 

Prysmic Bitter

WATER ****

It can only activate each of its effects once this turn. You can only activate this effect of "Prysmic Bitter" once per turn.

Prysmic Isolated

Thank you for looking through 'em! Hopefully they all make sense. Feel free to ask if anything is confusing. As always, any CnC (Comments n' Critique) is much appreciated!
