All members of this archetype are [[Magician's ForceWarrior]] and monsters, except for the [[Duelist RevolutionBeast]]. Their names include "[[AmazonessBaby Tiger]]", with the exception of "[[Amazon ArcherAmazoness Pet Liger]]", although in [[Gold Series 3]] the name was changed to "[[Amazoness ArcherPet Liger King]] . Although " and "[[The Unfriendly AmazonAmazoness Tiger]]" is similar in name it is not considered an "Amazoness".  [[Mai Valentine]], [[Tania]], and the Tyler sisters ([[Gloria Tyler|Gloria]] and [[TaniaGrace Tyler|Grace]] ) have both used "Amazoness" cards in the anime. The Amazoness These monsters are based on the [[Wikipediawikipedia:Amazons|Amazons]] from Greek Mythologymythology. ==Play StyleArtworks== Most of The "Amazoness monsters have average [[ATK]] and have some special abilities. To battle with " cards in the stronger monsters, you can use [[Amazoness Blowpiper]], [[Amazoness Archers]] and [[Amazoness Spellcaster]] English dubbed anime are re-drawn to manipulate the ATK of the opposing monster. [[The A. Forces]], [[Solidarity]], and some equip cards may support your [[Amazoness Deck]].Using [[Warrior Lady of the Wasteland]] be less revealing in tandem with [[Solidarity]] may greatly increase appearance; this is also done for the speed card artworks of the deck and help preserve field presence by boosting the [[ATK]] of your main cards. The most recently released "Amazoness " cards include [[Amazoness Queen]], [[Amazoness Sage]], [[Amazoness Scouts]], [[Amazoness Trainee]], [[Amazoness Fighting Spirit]], [[Amazoness Village]], [[Amazoness Willpower]] and [[Queen's Pawn]]. With these additions to Amazoness', in the Amazoness archetype has allowed for more swarming and more field control. Using [[Amazoness Village]], [[Amazoness Willpower]] and [[Queen's Pawn]] allows Amazoness' to swarm the field much faster and easier. Also, [[Amazoness Queen]], [[Amazoness Heirloom]] and [[Amazoness Scouts]] can help keep your AmazonessTCG' on the field while you increase their attacks with [[Amazoness Village]] and [[Amazoness Fighting Spirit]]. ==Strengths==Amazoness cards can do a lot in a duel. Amazoness monsters can swarm the field very quickly and make trouble for the opponent using field control. In battle, amazoness monsters can manipulate the opponents monsters' attacks and rip through monsters and life points. [[Amazoness Swords Woman]]can deal massive damage to opponents with strong monsters, while [[Amazoness Heirloom]] can destroy weak monster that cannot though these artwork changes would be destroyed by battle and strong monsters that are normally troublesome. Amazoness' can be kept on applied much later after the field very easily with [[Amazoness Queen]] and initial release, unlike similar archetypes such as "[[Amazoness ScoutsHarpie]] or can be replaced very easily with [[Amazoness Village]] or [[Soul Rope]]. They can also inflict large damage in numbers with their attacks mostly being 1500, once the opponent's field is cleared, it is very easy to take down their remaining life points". <gallery widths="200" position=Weaknesses="center" captionalign="center">Amazoness' massive field control comes at a costAmazonessChainMaster-JP-Anime-DM-NC. Amazoness monsters have trouble when fighting decks with a strong focus of spell and trap cards. Amazoness decks cannot break through spells and traps that can stop their attacks, like [[Messenger of Peace]], [[Level Limit png | Japanese animeAmazonessChainMaster-EN-Anime- Area B]], and [[Gravity Bind]]. The problem is that [[Amazoness Sage]] cannot attack and destroy [[Gravity Bind]] or [[Level Limit DM- Area B]]. One way you can help this is by adding [[Dust Tornado]]s, which will allow you to destroy their cards, and set a card to use on your turn like [[Queen's Pawn]]NC.png | English anime Another weakness that Amazoness decks commonly have is the destruction or their much needed spell and trap cards. Cards that really can help this are [[Dark Bribe]], [[Judgment of Anubis]], and [[Solemn Judgment]].</gallery>

==Suggested CardsPlaying style==The "Amazoness" monsters are designed either to weaken the opponent's monsters or strengthen themselves, with newer members being able to [[Special Summon]] themselves. Key cards include "[[Amazoness Village]]", "[[Amazoness Tiger]]", "[[Amazoness Princess]]", and "[[Amazoness Queen]]".While their ATK is often weak for their Level, cards such as "Tiger" and "[[Amazoness Paladin]]" increase in strength relative to the number of other "Amazoness" Monsters on the field. "[[Amazoness Trainee]]" increases in strength for every monster she destroys. "Queen" protects all "Amazoness" monsters from [[destroyed by battle|destruction in battle]], while "[[Amazoness Sage]]" can destroy one [[Spell Card|Spell]] or [[Trap Card]] at the end of each attack; with these two cards alone, a player can defend his or her monsters, while slowly dismantling an opponent's back row."[[Amazoness Fighting Spirit]]" Boosts "Amazoness" monsters attacks when they attack stronger Monsters and "Village" grants a slight power boost but also Summons from deck when "Amazoness" Monsters are destroyed."[[Amazoness Empress]]" and "[[Amazoness Pet Liger|Pet Liger]]" act as the boss monsters of the archetype, with "Empress" preventing destruction by battle or card effect and giving "Amazoness" monsters piercing damage while "Pet Liger" grants ATK reduction abilities to "Amazoness" monsters. "[[Amazoness Princess]]" acts as a searcher for the archetype, allowing quick access to the archetypes Spells and Traps upon its summon and allows for the summon of "Amazoness" monsters upon attacking. "[[Amazoness Baby Tiger]]" allows for easy swarming, allowing it to be summoned from the hand or graveyard upon the summon of another "Amazoness" monster. Both "Princess" and "Baby Tiger" also count as "Queen" and "Tiger", respectively, whilst on the field or graveyard, allowing the Fusion monsters to be summoned easier. "[[Amazoness Call]]" acts as the deck's main searcher, allowing for the searching of any "Amazoness" card in the deck. It also allows one "Amazoness" monster to attack every opposing monsters if it is banished from the graveyard. "[[Amazoness Onslaught]]" allows for the removal of opponents monsters via banishing, as well as swarming via a special summon once per Battle Phase and another upon its destruction.Within [[Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links]], Amazoness has typically appeared as a control deck focusing around the effects of "Princess", "Onslaught" and "Baby Tiger" with "Queen" only being available in the game through levelling [[Mai Valentine (Duel Links)]] to her maximum level.=== Weaknesses ==="Amazoness" struggles against backrow removal such as "[[Cosmic Cyclone]]" and "[[Harpie's Feather Duster]]", as "Onslaught" is their main form of Monster removal.Depending on how the deck is built, "[[There Can Be Only One]]" and "[[Rivalry of Warlords]]" can have different effectiveness as the archetype balances [[Warrior]] and [[Beast]] Monsters, leaning more to one depending on builds."[[Skill Drain]]" and "[[Effect Veiler]]" can be problematic to any "Amazoness" decks, due to most of their monsters having Continuous Effects or effects that can only be useful while battling.===Recommended cards==={{Decklist
