Back when 5ds came out was the last time I did anything yugioh related. Partially because 4kids pissed me off by not dubbing the final season of GX. I ended up watching the japanese version because I really wanted to know how it all ended.

Anyways back when the e heroes came out I had tried my hardest to work with them. Part of the problem was I couldn't get the cards I needed. Now this was before you could by the cards you need online. I ended giving up on them as they were just too much work. A couple of them were pretty good mind you, but outside of those few the rest just fell short of being worthwhile.

I'll admit that part of the reason I watched 5ds was because of the tuning mechanic. It definitely seemed to be made to replace the need for polymerization. Plus like you said the tuner monsters tend to have beneficial side effects outside of tuning. Almost all of the old fusion monsters that I can remember (which isn't alot ^^;) needed monsters that could easily be taken out whether by a mosnter, trap, effect, etc. The best fusion monster, that I can remember, was XYZ Dragon Cannon simply because you didn't need polymerization to bring it out.

As for tuner monsters............I can't really comment as I don't really know anything about them.

On a completely unrelated note this is one of the longest comments I've made to date. :)
