You can Special Summon this card from your hand or Graveyard by Tributing 2 Reptile-Type monsters you control. If you do this, apply one of the following effects:
● Negate the effects of all face-up non-Reptile-Type monsters until your opponent's next End Phase.
● This turn, all Reptile-Type monsters you control are unaffected by the effects of your opponent's Spell and Trap Cards.
● This turn, you can Tribute 1 Reptile-Type monster from your field or hand, and Special Summon 1 Reptile-Type monster from your Deck. Monsters Special Summoned by this effect cannot attack during the turn they are Summoned.


Reptile support, of course. There aren't that many Reptile Synchros or Xyzs, I don't think, so I included the Special Summoning from Deck effect.

What I know is that only the "Reptilianne" archetype is the only "well" supported reptile archetype or at least they can be considered "complete". (I'm not really updated right now, so correct me if I'm wrong.)

You see, we have some problem here:

He can special summon another copy of himself, when he's summoned, you get to activate his effects.

It's level 11, so let's assume that there would be any rank 11 Xyz monster, this will be a shortcut to summon that monster.

I think that part of his lore makes him Op'ed, I suggest you change "When this card is Summoned, apply one of the following effects:" to "When this card is Summoned [b]by it's own effect[/b], apply one of the following effects:"

The rest of it's lore is fine, but as I've mentioned earlier, if this card would be a support for reptiles, then it will be a good support, however, on which archetype or deck do you intend to add this card?

Worms and Aliens...oh how they would run wild with this one.

You give a type a creature blanket immunity to spells and traps. That is pretty scary especially if you already have Venominon on the field (not to mention you could use this to get him out).

You are able to summon any reptile from deck. You could go forth the Earthbound Immortal (I think), Worm King, or some other boss reptiles.

In short you took broken effects and applied them to something not commonly used or just doesn't have that much support. However with offerings to the Snake Diety or Alien Brain, Reptile archetypes have enough support between them to where this card really pushes them over the edge in my opinion. I think it would be fine if the last effect had a level cap of some kind.

The Level is a little too high imo. I think, given his stats & effects, he'd be better suited for a Level 7 monster. That'd also make him useful for Xyz/Synchro Summoning. A big issue is that he can Special Summon a copy of itself, who can then Special Summon a third one, who can then grab another Reptile. You should make it so that he can't grab copies of himself. And another thing, he gets his effect whenever he's summoned in general which means people could dump him [for a cost like Monster Reincarnation], use Reborn or Call and get his effect allowing him to swarm like crazy yet again.

The effect is only applied if it Special Summons itself by its own effect. I don't think that the support for Reptiles right now is enough, really. If you play any Reptile deck, you will be cut to ribbons within 3 turns when playing against [i]certain[/i] other decks.
