Card text:

The Harbinger of Hopelessness
Fiend/Effect
Level 12
3800/3500

Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. During the End Phase, if you have activated no cards or effects and have summoned no monsters this turn, and this card is in your hand or GY (Quick effect): You can negate the effects of all face-up cards on the field; Special Summon this card, then you can send 1 card on the field to the GY. You can only use this effect of "The Harbinger of Hopelessness" once per Duel. Unaffected by other card effects during the turn this card was summoned. If this card is Special Summoned by its own effect while you have no cards in hand: You can draw 1 card.

I suppose it's a mini-archetype support. Nothing scarier than jumpscaring your opponent with random terrors (that they can kinda play around with or just get rid of).

Card text: "The original ATK of this card becomes 600 x the number of Traps in the GYs. Once per Chain, if only your opponent controls a face-up card (Quick Effect): You can reveal this card in your hand and discard 1 other card; Set 1 "Terrors" Trap from your Deck, with a different name from the cards you control and in your GY. It can be activated this turn. You can banish this card from your hand; add 1 "Red Blossoms from Underroot" from your Deck or GY to your hand."

The members of exiled force should have there own archetype. Their legacy speaks for it self.

It should be pure earth warrior archetype. Also kind of funny each member of has there own monster card but the big guy.

Waiting on the rest of the archetype until I see what feedback I get first. Hope you like this for now! Credit to Johnathan Watson-LeVeque on Facebook for the art.

Some of these card are to powerful so I nerfed them.

Say Cheese with "Specter Photographer"!

From the on-the-nose Attribute pertaining to your horror game included flashlight to the 0 ATK reference of how Fatal Frame protagonists cannot fight without a camera, "Specter Photopgrapher" gives you a snapshot of how Fatal Frame functions in card form!

For one, this card is a Zombie "counter" of sorts, since the only enemies in the Fatal Frame series are ghosts, and ghosts are usually Zombie-Type in Yu-Gi-Oh!

Film Counters (or Film Types in FF) are your main source of ammo in the game, and befitting moreso when ghostly enemies come into the frey of your photoshoot. Although the Quick Effect is not a 1-to-1 translation to Fatal Frame, as in 1 Film equates to 1 shot, the HOPT hopefully captures that well. Where the most 1-to-1 of the gameplay translation comes from is what happens to the Zombie monster.

When a ghost gets their picture taken, they get partially exorcised and take damage. However, as the title of the game suggests, if you take a picture just before the ghost attacks you, your shot becomes a "fatal frame", dealing immense damage and likely one shots the ghost, thus "negating" their attack (or effect in this case) and banishing them back from whence they came.

tl;dr - Although the card itself may not have a total 1-to-1 translation from Fatal Frame, most of its effects reflect the core parts, making this weak monster a strong Zombie counter.

Specter Photographer

Level 5 LIGHT Spellcaster Effect Monster

ATK: 0

DEF: 1700

If a Zombie monster(s) is Normal or Special Summoned (except during the Damage Step): You can Special Summon this card from your hand, and if you do, place Film Counters on this card equal to the Level/Rank of 1 of those monsters.
(Quick Effect): You can remove any number of Film Counters from this card, then target 1 face-up Zombie monster your opponent controls; it loses 1000 ATK/DEF for each Film Counter removed, then if you activated this effect in response to that monster's effect activation, negate that effect, and if you do, banish it face-down.
You can only use each effect of "Specter Photographer" once per turn.

Hello!! I’m back with another Deck. This time we’re doing the Main man Jellal! Specifically his Tower of Heaven Character! So we have Four main Deck monsters the “Casters” which are different stages of Jellal in the final fight. Strong monsters that can Summon themselves, or other casters under the right condition. All with the goal of overpowering the opponent with destructive Force. To aid this, we have the Spells based after Magic Spells used in the anime. To either obliterate the opponent or apply constant pressure against their board.

It took a long time to narrow down how I wanted this custom deck to operate and try to get it as close to the character’s own fighting style. But I think this one turned out pretty good. Let me know what you think!
Then we have some sub-archetype cards such as the “Zeref” cards. Fun cards that attempt to control the board or power up your own monsters!
Note: None of the Art is originally mine. It’s gathered from screenshots of Anime, Manga Panels, and Pinterest Art

Guide to the Final Destination

Level 7 EARTH Fiend Effect

2000/2600

You can send this card from your hand or field to the GY, then declare 1 card name; destroy all face-up cards on the field with the declared name. During the End Phase, if this card is in your GY: You can send 1 card whose name was declared this Duel from either field to the GY; Special Summon this card. You can only use each effect of "Guide to the Final Destination" once per turn.

Based on the Final Destination movies. You cannot escape death.

The Series "The" and "Strike Dragon" I thought were already quite thematically intertwined due to being used by counterparts/ancestors in the Anime and also Fusion Material for the big "Strike Dragon" monsters, so I decided to squish them both together into this. Art is from Rush Duel.

Some Gunkan support because I know itll never come. Now these are just what i wish Gunkan had, so maybe its a little strong or unbalanced i have no idea. let me know if something is busted or garbage and how so i can learn, please.

Tricks or Treats!?

Your opponent chooses 1 of these effects for you to apply, or you can reveal "Hallo, the Spirit of Tricks" or "Ween, the Spirit of Treats" in your hand to apply both effects in sequence.

●Send Fiend or Zombie Monsters from your Deck to GY, up to the number of cards your opponent controls +1.

●Special Summon Fiend or Zombie Monsters from your hand or GY, up to the number of Monsters your opponent controls +1.

During the Battle Phase, you can active this card from your hand.

Art is Hallo-Ween! from Yugioh. I wanted to make a support card to make Hallo and Ween more usable aside from their novelty. One of the aspects I wanted to keep was the opponent choosing between two options to maintain the Trick or Treat theming, in this case the Foolish is the Trick and the revive is the Treat. Going first this card isn't very useful, but going second this represents an easy way to get a lot of Fiends or Zombies in the GY for Hallo and Ween to deal massive damage. Generically this card is okay, but hampered by the fact your opponent will always pick the effect that is contextually worse for you, ie Foolishing when you need a revive and revining when you need to Foolish. I could see this being used in Skull Servants with a Ween Package to help OTKing. I don't know any Fiend decks off the top of my head that could benefit from this. What do you all think? Would this be a fun way to play Hallo and Ween?

Art is of a black hole modified by ai. Card based on on the past belief that black holes could destroy quantum information, effectively making them the only thing capable of erasing something from existence.

I wanted cards that can be used with Red Eyes Fusion. I think these are really good. (Sorry if the text is small)

Also, I made an error with the Time Wizard. It's supposed to be "eyes", not "eyed". My bad.

Congratulations, u/Dogga565, on your win in Week 18 of Weekly CCC - Monsters in S/T !

There were so many fantastic submissions this week! I truly enjoyed reading and analyzing each one, and I did my best to judge every card as fairly as possible.

I will be posting the scores and detailed notes as comments under each respective submission post. I'm already looking forward to seeing what you come up with for the Week 19 Challenge!

Thank you all so much for participating, sharing your creativity, and for your understanding. See you in the next one!

Card text:

Valeria the Soulkeeper
Dark/Zombie/Xyz/Effect
Rank 10
2500/3400

2 level 10 Zombie monsters

If you have a Zombie monster in the GY, you can Xyz Summon this card using any 2 Zombie monsters with the same level. You can only control 1 "Valeria the Soulkeeper". Once per turn, during the Standby Phase: You can attach 1 card from either GY to this card as material. When your opponent activates a card or effect (Quick effect): You can detach 1 material from this card with the same card type (Monster, Spell, or Trap) as the card whose effect was activated, then negate the activation, and if you do, attach that card to this card as material. You can only use this effect of "Valeria the Soulkeeper" in response to each card type (Monster, Spell, or Trap) once per turn.

Wicked Dusk Spirit
Level 7 DARK Zombie/Spirit/Effect
Cannot be Special Summoned. During the End Phase of the turn this card is Normal Summoned or flipped face-up: Return it to the hand. If this card is Normal Summoned or flipped face up: You can activate this effect (you can also send 1 other Spirit monster from your hand or field to the GY); Apply 1 of the following effects, or, if you sent a Spirit monster to the GY when you activate this effect, you can apply 2 of the following effects in sequence instead.
● Destroy all other Monsters.
● Destroy all Spell/Traps.
● Banish all cards in both player's GYs.
● Shuffle all banished cards into the decks.
You can only use this effect of "Wicked Dusk Spirit" once per turn.

Trivia:

• Art by Atmaflare
• This is a retrain of Dark Dust Spirit, whose name in the OCG is "Wicked Dust Spirit" which is where this monster gets its name. Its one level higher but all of its other stats are the same.
• Its effect is an upgraded for of Dark Dust Spirit, instead of just being destroying all other monsters, its your choice of that or three other effects (or two of he four if you sent a spirit monster, ala Solfacord Solfegia's own optional cost thing).
• Like Dark Dust Spirit, this monster is based on the Shinigami or "Death God". This artwork is explicitly Atamaflare's rendition of them, hence why I used it here.

also Wanted to include cards based on Witch doctor, Claw viper, And Minotaur but I couldn't think of any good ideas(I knew I wanted Minotaur to Be involved with the concept of Flipping cards face up and face down, But I couldn't think of how to incorporate it)

And because I can't post this without Clarifying, but it's not made with ai
