Zimerick-Art Posted June 13, 2023 Report Share Posted June 13, 2023 Layered Rock-Type Archetype The Layered archetype is a FIRE Attribute Rock archetype which uses the Synchro engine. They're inspired by the layers of the Earth as well as archangels and the idea primarily came from a dream I had recently about an archetype based around Tributing monsters and the boss monster gaining ATK and DEF based on this. However, I wanted to play around with this more. All of the monsters in this archetype have the potential to be Summoned to either side of the field and get off effects based on Tributing other monsters, or being Tributed themselves, but, they have some drawbacks to being Tributed themselves. The artwork is credited to the lovely artist PeteMohrbacher over on DeviantArt. Let me know what you think below including improvements or edits I could make!
