Hello fellow duelists, an welcome back to Archetype Informer! Today we'll take you through a land of zaniness and unpredictability! A world you'd only see in your dreams, a world of TOONS

Toon monsters are widely know for their ability to attack directly at the cost of a few Life Points. They're also a bit overlooked because they have to wait a turn before attacking, and most of them destroy themselves if Toon World is destroyed. However, with the release of a few new cards to their ranks, they're starting to become more of a force to be reckoned with, so lets tackle them head on!

Now, Toons are a deck that don't really have any combos you can string along. Its very much a play-by-ear-deck, where it has a central strategy and you do your best to keep said strategy going. That being said, it DOES have access to a few cards that can help speed it along:

1.) Summoner Monk:Since most Toons are level 4, this card an grab them really quick. It also aids with them having to wait a turn to attack, since you can use your next turn to summon a new Toon and use the one you specialed to battle (as well as tin your deck some, or make an XYZ Summon)

2.) Terraforming: Toon Kingdom is the big go-to card for this deck now since it offers them destruction protection. So you can use this to get it, and Toon Table to grab your monsters

3.) Reinforcement of the Army: Toon Goblin Attack Force is the only target for this, but still worth running one or two so you can get it faster, or pitch it for Summoner Monk

4.) Magician's Circle: Since a good chunk of Toon Monsters are Spellcasters, this card can help fetch you another one as you attack

5.) Forbidden Chalice: Negates the effects of your Toon monster so it isn't destroyed if Toon World is, while also increasing its ATK for a turn

Another nifty thing about Toons is that their summons are treated as a Special Summon. So, you can summon more than one in a turn (thought the higher level ones still require a tribute, in which Scapegoat can be recommended for them)

All in all, Toons are very nifty slice of nostalgia that have gotten a recent boost. They can be quite fun, so give them a try if you haven't already~
