Chrono Crusaders!

[Haru Takami]

Alright, this is an archetype based on things along the lines of "Gold Sarcophagus" that have to do with turn count effects. It's almost a requirement to run Final Countdown, because half of these cards advance turn count. xD

people could sooo abuse this deck type for final countdown

[The Guard]

tick tock These would get so abused for a 2nd turn or 1st turn kill i just have that feeling something like that would happen.

[spellcasters]

ultimate offering +final countdown = good game

[Haru Takami]

they're not that bad... are they? o.o

Also, was thinking about giving them an Uber synchro of sorts... Requires a "Chrono" tuner + 2 or more non-tuner "Chrono" monsters. lv 11, just because... maybe something like this?

Chronos: Keeper of Time-Space
Level 11
DARK
Fairy/Synchro/Effect
1 "Chrono" Tuner + 2 or more non-Tuner "Chrono" monsters
This monster is also treated as being LIGHT. Each Time the turn Count advances, except by the effect of "Chronos: Keeper of Time-Space": Place 1 Chrono Counter on this card. (Max 5.) You can remove all Chrono Counters from this card to advance the turn count equal to the number of Chrono Counters removed by this effect. This monster gains 500 ATK for each Chrono Counter on the field.
ATK/ 2500
DEF/ 3000

[LeyvatenRider]

add a level 6 chrono sync that can tribute itself to either get out that lv 11 monster or speed up any count like this:

Chrono Leveler
Lv 6
Dark
1500 atk/1000 def
1 tuner,1 or more non tuner monsters
when this card is synchro summoned, place a number of chrono counters up to the number of monsters used for this summon.you can remove a number of chrono counters off this card to place that many chrono counters on another chrono card.you can tribute this card with 11 chrono counters to special summon 1 Chronos: Keeper of Time-Space from your extra deck or graveyard.

[Haru Takami]

why not make Leveler a LIGHT Fiend, in parallel to Chronos' DARK Fairy status?

Yes, Chronos works very well with Chaos monsters. (BLS, CSorc., CED, Etc.) which can help speed up things like Chrono Crevasse.

Current monster count would be:
3 Rock
3 Warrior
2 Spellcaster
1 Fairy
1 Fiend

Thought up another few.

Chrono Cycler
Lv 3
DARK
Spellcaster/Effect
Once per turn you can target 2 Banished "Chrono" monsters: Return those cards to the Deck; draw 1 card and advance the turn count by 1.
ATK/ 900
DEF/ 1200

Chrono Trooper
Lv 3
DARK
Rock/Effect
Once per turn you can Banish the top card of your deck; if that card is a "Chrono" monster: Advance the turn count by 2. When this card is destroyed: Target 1 Banished "Chrono" monster; add it to your hand.
ATK/ 0
DEF/ 1000

Chrono Sniper
LIGHT
Lv 3
Spellcaster/Synchro/Tuner
1 "Chrono" Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner monsters
Each time the turn count advances (Except by the effect of "Chrono Sniper".) Target 1 monster your opponent controls: Reduce the Target's ATK and DEF by 1000 until your opponent's standby phase. When this monster is used for the Synchro Summon of a "Chrono" Synchro monster: Advance the turn count by 1 for every non-Tuner Synchro Material monster used.
ATK/ 1500
DEF/ 1000



Current monster count after this:

4 Rock
3 Warrior
4 Spellcaster
1 Fairy
1 Fiend
--------------
5 LIGHT
7 DARK
1 Random EARTH o.O Don't know what I was thinking with that one...

[mr_magnus]

f***k, if you're lucky then you will be able to duel 3 turns before your opponent "resolves" his final countdown.
oh, and btw: gold sarco counts standby phases, not turns. So these cards, in a technical sense, wont affect it.
but i get where you are going, and like the idea :)

[LeyvatenRider]

needs an xyz.
leveler should b a light monster but instead of being a synchro it should b an xyz
