The Rock wants you to check out these archetypes together. Probably.

Strategic Summary:
Hailing as one of Yugi’s original archetypes, the Magnet Warrior archetype consists of EARTH/Rock Normal monsters and a paired subtheme of Electromagnet Warrior monsters that trigger on summon. For the Level 3s: Beta the Electromagnet Warrior searches any other Magnet Warrior, Gamma the Electromagnet Warrior summons one from the hand, and Alpha the Electromagnet Warrior searches a Level 8 Magna Warrior. Additionally, each of these core Level 3 monsters can tribute themselves during the opponent’s turn to summon a Level 4 Magnet Warrior, which in most cases will be Delta the Magnet Warrior. For his role, Delta sends any other Magnet Warrior from Deck to the GY on summon, letting you get all the pieces in place. But remember those Magna Warrior monsters I mentioned – those are your bosses. Valkyrion is summoned exclusively through Delta’s second effect here, but Berserkion the Electromagna Warrior is a boss akin to Dark Armed Dragon. It can be summoned from the hand by banishing 1 each of your Electromagnet Warriors from your Hand/Field/GY, then it can banish a Magnet Warrior from the GY to destroy an opponent’s card. This gives you a way to wipe the opponent’s board and have an actual win condition!
But outside of our Magnet and Magna Warriors, this theme has a few support cards up its sleeve too. Magnet Induction, the reason for publishing this profile now and a new TCG Premiere from King’s Court (and revealed for the OCG the other day), summons another Magnet Warrior from the deck while you control one. And their field spell, Magnetic Field, lets you summon a Magnet Warrior from your GY once per turn while you control an EARTH/Rock monster. This gives you quite the gambit of plays to rock on and boulder through your opponents. That’s enough about Magnets tho, let’s talk Triamid, another EARTH Rock theme. While traditionally Triamids have revolved around just their Field Spells, we’re using a small Level 3 engine here consisting of 3 Triamid Hunter, and their new spell Triamid Loading from DAMA. This gives the Magnet Warriors more summons, more fodder for Xyz/Synchro plays, and more of an advantage engine to lean upon for consistency. Oh, and I included Adamancipators too, because why not when running rocks. Be ready for some gneiss plays and shale out wins with this Rock strategy!
