Archetype Submission: Zero HERO

[senpaizuri]

The gimmick for this archetype is simple. They can't do anything on their own, but they gain power with synergy. All of the monsters have 0 ATK/DEF (of course, if that stat applies) but they use their effects or rely on other monsters (like Watchman or Justice) to give them power. The archetype is fully scripted and is on the Moon server. Also, I did not add Hard OPTs because I didn't see the need to when I was play testing them.
