Ruling Achetypes

[Unfallible]

What are the Archetypes? I keep hearing the term, but I don't understand it.

 

[Teddiursa]

An Archetype is a well known, popular deck.

 

[thechubbss12]

To elaborate... It is a deck that has won consistant torneys and has very good sysnergy....

If you creat a archetype it is like an honor... but afer a few weeks everyone forgets who created it....

So it's a Metagame?

 

[bugsbite]

Where can you find a list of these decks with their strategies?

 

[Krucifier]

An "Arche-type" is a deck that has gained popularity and has won several major tournaments.

An Arche-Type is NOT a Metagame. A Metagame is just that, a Metagame.

 

[Andyman]

So it's a Metagame?

Metagame - The popular Archetypes played in your area, and the areas around you.

Hope this helps. ~Andy[/quote]

O.K.

ARCHETYPE
* A typical, ideal, or classic example of something.
* Something that serves as the model or pattern for other things of
the same type.

NOW you decide what an archetype is... XD
