Cyber Ogre Archetype [WRITTEN]

[Tinkerer]

Hello, fine peoples!

Inspired by The Old Charletot's Cyber Barrier/Laser Support thread, I thought it'd be nice to show some love to (one of) the other "Cyber" themes from GX.

Like Cyber Dragon, the base of this archetype will revolve around the titular "Cyber Ogre", but all the monsters will share its name in hand/on field (rather than on field/in grave).

 

Like CyDras, Cyber Ogres are aggressive, but their style isn't as straightforward. They focus on buffing themselves and then using the excess ATK to inflict massive amounts of burn damage. Mimicking CyDras' secondary control playstyle (via CyDra Infinity), these also try to control the board with their partially generic fusion materials.

Without further ado, onto the cards!

This is a bit more of a showcase than an actual thought-out archetype, so certain things may be wildly off-balance. If you notice anything, feel free to let me know!

Cheers!
