"'''Machina'''", known as "'''Machiners'''" (マシンナーズ ''Mashinnāzu'') in the ''[[OCG]]'' and some video games, and as "'''Machine'''" in the English manga, is an [[archetype]] of [[EARTH]] and [[DARK]] [[Machine]] [[Monster Card|monsters]] which debuted in the ''OCG'' in ''[[Premium Pack 9]]''. "Machina" monsters were used by [[Kirk Dixon]] in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! R]]'' manga, [[Blister]] in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]'' anime, and [[Bolt Tanner (manga)|Bolt Tanner]] in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's (manga)|Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]'' manga.
Jerome McHale explained in a [http://www.pojo.biz/board/showpost.php?p=15840093&postcount=67 post on Pojo] that the archetype's name was localized in the ''[[TCG]]'' name to "Machina" from "Machiners" because the former name "clearly demonstrates that these are Machine monsters, not other [[Type]]s of monsters that do work on machines".

The core components of a[[DARK]] "'Machina" Deck are monsters have more diverse supportive effects. "[[Machina FortressPossesstorage]]"revives "Machina" monsters in the GY, "[[Machina GearframeUnclaspare]]"is an extender that also [[mill]]s a "Machina" monster, and "[[Machina PeacekeeperResavenger]]" because of their versatility in any is an [[ATK]] boost [[Machinehand trap]] oriented Deckwith self-recovery. The DARK "Machina Force" also has a placeboss monster, but only because it is an easy fodder for the Summoning requirement of "Fortress" that can be easily searched by "Gearframe". A common loop in all "[[MachinaRuinforce]]" Deck variants is that "Gearframe" and "Peacekeeper" search for each other, always ensuring that there is a 4600 ATK [[beatstick]] that can Special Summon itself from the GY by [[banish]]ing Machinemonsters in the GY; it can [[negate]]-[[Typecard effect]] monster ready for s during the [[discardBattle Phase]] cost of , and can Special Summon banished "FortressMachina"monsters when destroyed.

===Machina Force OTKGadget===* This combo applies to "[[{{main|Machina Force]]".Gadget}}===Weaknesses===* This combo requires a "[[Commander Covington]]" The archetype relies on your side on the field and "its [[Machina DefenderGY]]", "to maximize its limited grind game; if all monsters [[Machina Snipersent]]", "to the GY are [[Machina Soldierbanish]]"ed instead, and "Machina Force" in your [[Graveyard]].* You must have at least two copies of "Machina Force" in the [[Deck]] to use this combo.* [[Mill]] cards such as by the effect of "[[Foolish BurialDimensional Fissure]]" and or "[[Scrap RecyclerMacro Cosmos]]" may improve effectiveness.# If you're playing [[Traditional Format]], use "[[Future Fusion]]" (selecting "[[Chimeratech Overdragon]]") to [[send]] at least one the archetype becomes completely incapable of each of the following monsters to the Graveyard: "[[Cyber Dragon]]", "Machina Force", "Machina Defender", "Machina Sniper", grinding and "Machina Soldier".# Summon "[[Phantom of Chaos]]". Then, [[banish]] "Machina Force" via its effect to gain will easily burn itself out with its name discard and self-destruction effects.# Use the the effect of "In addition some Machina Force" acquired by "Phantom of Chaos" and [[Tribute]] "Phantom of Chaos" monster also need their card to [[Special Summon]] "Machina Defender", "Machina Sniper", and "Machina Soldier".# Tribute "Machina Defender", "Machina Sniper", and "Machina Soldier" via "Commander Covington" be sent to Special Summon "Machina Force".# Use "the [[Limiter RemovalGY]]" to double activate their effects which means these card are extra effective against the [[ATK]] of "Machina Force" to 9200.# Then, [[equip]] your "Machina Force" with "[[Shooting Star Bow - Ceal]]" (9200 ATK → 8200 ATK) and attack your opponent's [[Life Points]], reducing them to 0archetype.* An alternate but more risky combo is Due to equip "[[Megamorph]]" to "Machina Force", rather than activating "Limiter Removal" the deck huge reliance on Type and Attribute to double its [[ATK]]. Then, if no player had lost any [[Life Points]] up till now, [[pay]] 1000 [[Life Points]] to attack an opponent's [[Attack Position]] monster and activate "Limiter Removal" during [[damage calculation]]. ==Weaknesses==A weakness proc most of this Deck is being banishedtheir effect, cards such as neither "[[Machina FortressZombie World]]" nor or "[[Machina Peacekeeper]]" (unless it is equipped to a monster) can activate their effects when "[[Dimensional FissureLair of Darkness]]", "[[Banisher will shut down half of the Light]]", "archetype.* As a [[Banisher of the RadianceMachine]]"archetype, and/or "specific [[Macro CosmosType]]" is in play. -counter cards such as "[[System Down]]" and "[[Karma Cut]]" are also devastating cards for this Deck, therefore a Side Deck containing "[[Imperial Iron Wall]]" and cards that destroy/negate spells and traps is needed. or "[[Chimeratech Fortress Dragon]]" is also another card to look out for, as an opponent can remove all your [[Machine]] monsters on your side of are very effective against the field with his own - or even your own - "[[Cyber DragonDeck]]", leaving your field empty for a 2000-4000+ as [[ATK]] [[BeatstickSide Deck]]options.{{Archseries navbox}}{{Archseries navbox (anime)}}{{clearArchseries navbox (manga)}}{{Archseries navbox (D Team)}}{{Archetype Archseries navbox(Duel Links)}}[[Category:TCG and OCG archetypes]]
