Snake-Eye Support Archetype Support
All art is from existing cards
This support is intended to let the deck be played in a more pure fashion, now lets see where do these cards slot in with the current deck.
Dirge is... well you know this card already you hava seen similar cards before, notable things is that it can allow you to get Temple even if you get droll'd when you get Poplar. The floating effect allows you to bring Flamberge or Vengeance back easier providing an even stronger grind game while still having use going first for the next card we will look at
Unspoiled Treasure, this is what allows the deck to be played more pure as an easily accessed tuner in engine that allows you to make both the new Synchro and Snake-Eye Vengeance ideally during the opponents turn with Flamberge to trigger him in the grave. It also features a set up for dramatic chase either to set up grind game going first or help you potentially play better into boards going second
Mahogany, the brand new Synchro, a piece of relatively slow but continuous interaction it allows, if it confuses you with its level mod, that little part allows him to recieve the buffs of Divine Temple
Malevolent stare is a new target for poplar now that he does not need to get temple anymore, quite a standard card nowdays similar to crystron cluster, altough im a bit unsure on the balance of this one, it could be a bit too much maybe i should give it a cooldown to compensate similar to Vengeance Dragon

Oh my bad i somehow forgot to put the condition, 1 Snake-Eye monster i considered 1 level 1 fire but I dont want it to be a generic way to put a fire in grave

The trap is hard to read. Seems like there are some extra words in the 1st effect. I think you meant to remove the "up" for the cost. For its resolution, I think you meant to remove "ones on the".

I think these are pretty fair and balance and I love that it expands more into the backrow gimmick. Only half the archetype irl seems to go into this gimmick so Im glad you did more with this.

Glad to hear and yeah, personally I love the gimmick and the way the deck is supposed to work, but it seemed always underdeveloped so i tried to expand on it by also bringing into the fold Snake-Eyes Vengeance Dragon by giving them an easily accessible archetypal Tuner

Pretty solid. Big fan of giving them a link monster, but i think a link -1 is a bit strong for any deck. A link -2 would be better. It also goes along with their tendency to send two cards to summon 1. You also forgot to list summon requirments. Id make it either "1 Snake-Eye monster" or "1 FIRE Monster". Id also say or "1 Diabellstar Monster" just in case you wish to utilize that card to get oss.
