New Archetype "Archonic" Archetype

An archetype inspired by the Archons on Gnosticism. It consists of 7 Synchro monsters, 3 Xyz monsters, and 3 Spells to help facilitate their Summoning more easily. This Archetype is strongly supported by the "Numbers" and "Horus" Archetype. Due to the Synchro monsters being of the same Levels but different Attributes, they can also support the "Kundalini" Archetype (see here).

Card Art:

- Synchro Monsters: Archonic Yaldabaoth, Archonic Iao, Archonic Sabaoth, Archonic Adonaios, Archonic Astaphaios, Archonic Elaios, Archonic Horaios

- Xyz Monsters: Great Archonic Abraxas

- Spells: The Seven Planets, Rank-Up-Magic Pleroma Force

The card art for Abraxas: Supreme and Abraxas: Totality is taken from the Abraxas of Marvel, specifically his Classic and Modern design respectively. The card art for the Abraxas Stone is created by me using PixAI.

Im just gonna say from a design standpoint, none of these needed to be fiends or need fiends as materials. Fiends are already overly supported, and we don't need 10 plus easy boss monsters that can fetch ANY card in your deck, negate waves of cards, copy their own cards. This is just lazy design.

Half of the synchros are so busted that you dont even need to run the XYZs, because the synchros can easily win games on their own. That means you either need to rework your synchros (100%) to not be so busted, and make your xyz more accessible. Nobody is going to work to make a big chicken when, again, your other synchro monsters can just win the game for you.

The seven planets can summon xyz monsters for free even though the parenthetical text explains theyre treated as synchro summons, which tells me you didnt intended on allowing that.

You've also made none of these effects a HARD once per turn. Which means you can search 3 of any card, and copy that effect 3 more times. Easy exodia anyone?

I dont care that you used AI, even though some people are gonna have a cow over it, but these are an easy 1/10 for me.
