Hey, guys. I wanted your opinions on a new archetype coming out called Ghostricks. It's a Halloween themed deck that revolves around setting themselves and their opponents to surprise people like ghosts. I'm really interested in this archetype and might actually build one in real life. I'll have the description below and a deck list I've already formed. The archetype is not on dueling network yet though. I would also appreciate suggestions for the extra deck besides like the two obvious Ghostrick Alucards.
Description (from wikia - please check out the page to see their effects since I can't link it for some reason):
"Ghostrick" (ゴーストリック Gōsutorikku) ("Ghost" and "trick") is an archetype of DARK Fiend, Spellcaster and Zombie-Type monsters that debuted in "Shadow Specters". They are based on various Halloween monsters.
All of the non-Xyz Monsters introduced thus far have had a common effect: "Cannot be Normal Summoned unless you control a "Ghostrick" monster (but can be Normal Set). Once per turn: You can change this card to face-down Defense Position".
Their effects seem to revolve around flipping monsters face-down and protecting themselves as long as they are face-down. In this way, they act like pranksters or mischievous spirits: popping out and scaring people, then running away and hiding as understood by the name "Ghostrick" which is derived from the words "Ghost" and "Trick", being ghosts that trick.
So far, Level 1 "Ghostrick" monsters are Fiend-Type focused on Special Summoning themselves from the hand, Level 2 "Ghostrick" monsters are Spellcaster-Type focusing on changing the opponent's monsters into face-down Defense Position and Level and Rank 3 "Ghostrick" monsters are of the Zombie-Type with the tactic of adding additional "Ghostrick" cards to the hand.
