Archess

"Archess" is an archetype of Fiend-Type monsters based around Special Summoning themselves or Tokens to the player's opponent's side of the field, creating attack targets with low ATK which are exploited to deal heightened Battle Damage to the opponent. The six basic Archess monsters are based on chess pieces and are partly inspired by the first official members of the "Archfiend" archetype, as they no only share Type and their chess theme, but also mirror their Attributes. The names of these six basic Archess monsters are based on the names of gods in | Etruscan mythology, while the names of the Fusion Monsters are based on the names of Titans from | Ancient Greek mythology.
