This card cannot be Normal Summoned or Set. This card cannot be Special Summoned except when a "Reptilianne" monster you control is removed from the field. When this card battles, it's ATK becomes the same as the battled monsters ATK + 100. Once per turn, you can draw 1 extra card each Draw Phase. This card is unaffected by your opponent's Spell and Trap Cards. Once per turn, if this card is attacked, you can Tribute 1 "Reptilianne" monster you control to change the attacking monsters Battle Position. When this card is destroyed, Special Summon 2 Level 3 or lower "Reptilianne" monsters from your Graveyard.[/center]

Reptilanne being my favorite archetype i just had to check this out.

The main theme of Reptilanne's revolve around manipulating or using monsters with 0 ATK to apply their effects, gain their effects or have effects which reduce a monsters ATK to 0.

The Original ATK of Reptilanne Queen is 0, meaning it can be used to summon Vaskii. Its summoning condition is easily met, espesically when combined with the deadly Offerings to the Snake Diety. Also works well with the Viper's Reborn, Reptilanne Gardna combo.

It cannot be destroyed by the effects of Spells or Traps and it will always have 100 More ATK then the monster it battles with. This is alone is ridiculously powerful, as the aforementioned effect, (excpet in a few situations) makes the ability to change an attacking monster to defense position entirely useless.

An Extra Draw. God, do Reptilanne's need some helpful draw support, but this is simply too powerful. There is no literal draw-back to this powerful monster. It's easy to summon, it isan't afraid of the common seen Mirror Force, Icarus Attack, Dimensional Prison, Dark Hole, Lightning Vortex. It tramples any monster (assuming that monster isan't equiped with Rainbow Viel, but lets not split hairs) Its DARK so it has loads of support out-side of Reptile types.

Lastly, it can summon 2 Level 3 or Lower Reptilanne monsters from your graveyard when it finally gets beat somehow.This is okay, as , Reptilanne Viper, Servent, Naga, and Gorgon meet the criteria for the revival effect.


This card is simply OP'd and does little which actually supports the Reptilanne Theme.

But you must take into account how bad Reptiliannes are. As I monologued about (it's on the second or third page, do read it), balance is relative - that's the reason Harpies have a spell that can instantly summon one from your hand or deck free of charge, that's the reason Blackwings were allowed to have Gale @3 until they got more support, et cetera et cetera. Reptiliannes are a weak archetype, so you must take into account that having a broken card won't suddenly make them Tier 1. If this card was released as Blackwing support, it would be rejected in a heartbeat, but this is Reptiliannes. They are under-meta, below even Tier 3.

That wasn't my argument. Just because the archetype is not as consistent as other decks doesn't make the card any less Overpowered. As a Reptilianne duelist, i understand the difference against a fast-paced Meta Deck, but don't forget their are players who play casually with friends or players who strictly play the console games and will use any deck under the sun as long as it fits their tastes. There are also loads of duelists who aren't even aware of the Meta-Game and what decks are currently dominating. For players like these, they only have to look at the real cards and they will see only a few monsters have such immunity-effects and come with hefty summoning conditions, and because of how difficult they are to summon they rarely see in but a casual-games deck. A Reptillanne Duelist such as my self may choose to ignore this card, or i would choose to exploit it, its incredibly powerful and it is indeed possible to splash Reptilanne monsters with another deck, as being DARK allows for decent synergy.

However, if you truly looked at this card from a competitive point of view you'd realize that this card can be played in multiples and very easily as Reptilanne's have strong search and recovery due to Gardna, Sangan, Allure of Darkness, Gold Sarcophagus ettc. Getting one out makes it difficult to stop without the use of monster effects. Some of the most Common Meta-game monsters can stop this, but you could summon another one just as easily. This virtually lables Brionac useless against it, which is one of the greatest cards to get you out of a tough situation. SS Mizuho, and other monster destructions can be faced with another one of these just as soon as they destroy it. Do not forget that you can back this card with various support, being DARK, and alot of protection, Forbidden Chalice, Chivalry, Revlation, Effect Veiler and Divine Wrath are notable ones which stop a monsters effect dead in their tracks. (Of course Effect Veiler also counters this card)

Regardless of the fact Reptilanne's are below tier 3 or where ever they are, this card is still Over-powered and can easily win games by it self. Especially with common-seen protection and support DARK monsters have as a whole. Wether compared against a Meta-Deck, or a non-meta deck, this cards strength is clearly visible.

Thank you all for comment and giving me your honest opinion about it

Please understand that i am not attacking you or your card by any means. I am stating my opinion and supporting it as to why the card is over-powered.
