Who has loved the Charmers, but have seen them go by without meta playability. I am on a quest to give what I love their rightful place! Introducing the subarchetype of Spirit Charmers . My goal was to give their counterpart trap cards a tiny boost, but moreso than that, help the charmers be used in a deck without the familiars(although I will still be supporting the possessed).
Their strengths: when a meta is defined, they will be able to counter anything that SS from deck while giving you advantage if you have a Charmer. They hold strong effects when their non-spirit charmer is on the field and they are SS'ed that open the way for their trap cards to be played easier or get more value.
Weaknesses: To be honest, I think they need a buff given that it won't be countering many decks and it's genericness is shaky. They have 0 ATK, so they can't get their effect if another spirit is on the field. That might need to be broadened, but it strays away from my intention.
All in all, I think it is good, but miiight need buffed to be used as generic counter play to deck SS.
Milla's card might be seeing use as an alternative to denko, but I think it also might need buffed. It seems alright though because it gives advantage when Milla is normal summoned. The end phase effect actually might make it see good use though I think. I look forward to seeing the response with this, thanks!
