The Laval monsters are an Archetype released in Duel Terminal - Vairon Descends!!. Their name seems to be a corruption of the word "Lava" (It's similar to how the Flamvell-archetype was named). Their team symbol is an orange flame often carved into a stone flat or disc. All known Lavals are Fire so they can use Fire Support cards such as "Backfire", "Spiritual Fire Art - Kurenai", "Molten Destruction" and be special summoned by "UFO Turtle". Also most of them are Warrior or Pyro type.

The main strategy of the Laval monsters relies on sending members of the archetype to the graveyard, then manipulating them for various purposes, attack gain, damage, etc. The 'dragon' of the archetype, Lavalball Dragon, relies on monsters being in the Graveyard to send cards on the field to the opponents hand. The archetype has overall great recycling potential and can work well in combination with Lightsworns or Dark World cards.

Another good "partner"-archetype are Flamvell since both Laval Burning Verdant Temptress and Blazesmith Kaen are FIRE attribute monsters with 200 DEF. You can use cards like Flamvell Firedog to search Temptress or Rekindling to swarm the field.
