If you take a close look at the fieldspell, you can see six doors (although one being slightly hidden behind Clavis). In the bottom row, there is a pink door and a green door (there is a slight green glow behind clavis). Those two doors most likely refer to the spells and traps. The top row is even more interesting, with four doors. Those come in the colors white, light blue, purple and black, so Synchro, Rituals, Fusion and XYZ respectively. So I do think it it quite likely that we'll receive the other two extradeck cardtypes in the future.

I'd say: Play it with Lair of Darkness (after doing your searches with the actual field spell) - All opponent's monsters would be Dark, same as Clavis in your GY, making it easy to proc your effects (board wipe, effect negation, etc.) - You could tribute opponent's monsters for the Ritual suumons.

[@richardthepastamancer6619]

dark magician had a fusion/ritual spell too, secret of dark magic

[@LadyTsunade777]

This archetype looks really cool, and it feels like they're already planning further support with the other summon types based on the fact that the level 4 Ritual and Fusion are tuners, so I expect there to be a level 4 Synchro tuner and a level 8 Synchro, and probably a rank 4 and 8 XYZ to go with the archetype. I also quite like that they have an archetypal fusion spell that is also simultaneously their ritual spell, as well as a trap that does the same. I've always been a fan of multi-attribute things (the Doriado cards being some of my favorite cards ever), archetypes that make use of all the summon types instead of focusing on one, and I just like Ritual summoning in particular. I'd certainly love to try playing Magikeys with Elemental Grace Doriado thrown in. Also just remembered that Elementsabers exist, for cards that change their attribute while in the graveyard. Specifically Molehu and Lapauila, since Magikeys seem to want to focus on level 4 and 8.

Actually the Field Spell also helps recycle your bricks that you said before, typically I could see this being run with the world chalice Normals (cause their attributes vary from Earth, Fire, Water), Mekk-knight Aram (Light) or Agent Venus for the Shine Balls but I think Mekk-Knight would be better, and I can see you also if needed just Siding these for matches too, and adding certain normals or taking out others for certain matchups, So if you have two normals already in hand, you can use the Field Spell to both get the spell, and return the normal monster, and use it to be able to have a target in your deck for a ritual/fusion monster with it, I also was considering you could add advanced ritual which can interesting to send normals as well. The Fusion/Ritual Tuners can also make some plays into Lv6-8 synchros or etc. While the attribute reliance can be a bit annoying, if you have the field spell, and a few of the other Normal monsters mention above, it wouldn't too difficult first turn to use most of them effectively, it just really depends on the matchup I think, and of course this isn't including already existing support that can help like Link Spider, Imduk the world chalice, world chalice gaurdragon etc.

This deck is really cool, it just feels unfinished. I love the aesthetic of having a single key monster (pun not intended) that acts as an avatar for the deck. It's the same with Invoked, Sky Striker, and Eldlich. As for the cards themselves though, they leave something to be desired. They aren't awful, I think they stand on their own better than the 3 new archetypes from the deckbuilder set, but most of the monsters have effects that are more complicated than they need to be. The attributes in your graveyard also take a bit of finesse, and Unlock doesn't fully fix that problem. I see a defined gameplan here, they just need the tools to make it work.

[@cbored3778]

My personal thoughts on the archetype: Batobuster is lucky it searches on summon while being a tuner cos that battle effect is ass. Garesvet is great and with pretty good recursion and negation I can see it acting as a decent boss monster if not a secondary boss monster. Ansyalabolas besides being hard to say is alright if you use instant fusion but outside of that it's a level 4 that can be used for ritual and synchro plays and not much else. Andrabimus is pretty good with a decent nuke and draw effect, though you're kinda fucked against multi attribute decks, while it's easy to make if you use instant fusion and maphteah. The fusion/ritual card is interesting to say the least but it kinda suffers from not being a "fusion" spell or a ritual spell which makes it unsearchable outside of in archetype methods. Though it does make the synergy with unexpected dai and rescue rabbit much better with the deck. The field spell is certainly a field spell lmao, search on activation, archetype name so it's searchable, kicks off your plays by getting the fusion/ritual card and has a useless effect than nobody cares about. Connected is pretty good for recycling your vanilla while getting potentially a garesvet out on your opponent's turn for some spicy disruption. Unlock is infernity barrier with some decent synergy with andrabimus on your turn allowing you to nuke everything with one banish for those multi attribute decks. I'm fine with it being spell and trap specific since we also have a way to negate monster effects. Final thoughts: ehh pretty alright and at the very least interesting, they better be getting some synchros though cos otherwise what's the point of having the level 4 ritual and fusion be tuners. Lastly I want to bring up that people comparing this to muskets and zoodiac is actually hilarious, these will never be close to even musket's level and will end up like most interesting archetypes in the past, terrible. The most these will get is a random top out of nowhere after a long silence period and a capG vid before fading away like the others. Infinitrack, true draco and gouki will keep them company don't worry.

I think this deck needs a lot more monster support but I really like the push of Konami to negating a lot of monster activation effects. I think this will change how people play the meta in some way, and something I hope to see a lot more support to. The only problem with it at the moment is that it is a rather slower deck to function. You need normal monsters in your graveyard with certain attributes required as activation. It has a very interesting combo and one that will require good balancing of deck to pull off, however there seems to be very few support for a good number of effects that can really help disable many of the toxic strategies played in the meta. I'd love to see more support for this card and run a deck around it if they give this archetype enough support

light and darkness dragon can fullfill garesvets 2 attribute requirement since its always light and dark

Yep sora with a gun, buying dawn of majesty for THIS.

13:55 Dark Magician looking at The Secrets of Dark Magic Quickplay Spell Card Dark Magician "... and I took that personally"

[@resuteru502]

It's rather early to tell, but currently this Archetype I think could be better than it might initially seem. While currently I question if a pure version of this Archetype is possible, I do feel that it's very splashable in many decks and normal support is already very good(Unexpected Dai, Creature Seizure, Dark Factory of Mass Production, Justi-Break, Symbols of Duty). Also it's key Normal monster is Dark and Warrior Both have a TON of recursion and ways to fetch/draw. At minimum I am expecting rouge status or even casual play champs.

[@kipp14]

With the tlnormal trap couldn't you lock your opponent out ov monster effects in the draw phase with the monster than negates the ability to use monster effects

[@ryanacosta2486]

The ritual/fusion card isn't the only one. Secrets of dark magic is a quick play ritual/fusion spell

[@cozzillagaming1869]

When I first saw the title, I read Magikarp archetype and got extremely worried

[@J-Smoove12]

Dark Magic Secrets for DM is a fusion and ritual quick play spell.

[@mageius]

In all fairness there's an old car that allows you to make everything on the field the same attribute. Also the architect could always try to find some decent Gemini monsters to act as normal monsters, although I'm not sure if there are any that would really work with the archetype but just saying since they could be interesting if there's anything that would work with it.

[@allenhatton6741]

what about using metalfoes and other normal pendulum stuff?

[@halodragonborn]

A: elemental heroes, varying attribute normal monsters B: how are you planning on making a level 4 synchro with level 4 tuners?

[@Null496]

Cimo, you seem to be forgetting the Dark magician support card "Secrets of Dark Magic" (Also a ritual and fusion card).

[@shawnli4746]

instantly reminded me of an Oxford University Children's books series which became a cartoon called The Magic Key

12:25 cries in secrets of dark magic

[@wolfiekoinu3155]

I’m definitely gonna pick this up but my issue is it’s basing around normal monsters but they only have one non-special main deck monster.. might be able to mix with tenyi maybe but guess we will see

[@scotthannemann582]

You mentioned the homonculus type of card but isn't that what elementsabres are? Molehu could synergize with a few of these cards

[@light5009]

I used to hate your channel but now I'm subscribed

Little does he know, garesvets attack gain doesnt require different attributes, it counts each in the grave
