"Gorgon", The "Reptilianne" support [5]

[Galkin]

"Reptilianne" was a forgotten archtype of Reptile-type monsters that focused on placing your opponent's monsters ATK at 0, then plussing from that fact with cards such as "Reptilianne Hydra" and "Reptilianne Vaskii". They suffered from various problems, such as having little options besides battle to activate their effects [Cause Poison requires Defense; Medusa requires tribute]. "Gorgons" are a group of 5 cards that are designed to give "Reptilianne" an easier time by having less battle-oriented effects, in addition to using the Banish Zone, which is new to "Reptilianne". They also slightly mix with Reptile-types seeing as some of their effects work using Reptiles and not specifically "Reptilianne", although it is merely so you can incorporate Reptiles into "Reptilianne" and not "Reptillianne" into Reptiles.

 

[spoiler='Reptilianne Sea Gorgon']

"You can Normal Summon this card by Tributing 1 "Reptilianne" monster. If this card is Tribute Summoned: You can Banish 1 "Reptilianne" monster and 1 Reptile-type monster from your Graveyard; the ATK of all monsters your opponent controls become 0. If this card is destroyed by a card effect: You can Banish 1 Reptile-type monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon this card from your Graveyard, but its ATK becomes 0."

 

This is the new Boss Monster. It has high ATK and it is more than likely to leave your opponent with 0 ATK monsters, in addition to having a built-in stall effect that provides you with a wall if your opponent tries to destroy it outside of battle. This card was designed to be a Boss and assist Vaskii by fueling the field with 0 ATK, netting you many plusses. In addition, this card is level 8, making it useful for Trade-In and XYZ with Vaskii.

[spoiler='Gorgon's Curse']

"You can only activate this card if you have at least 1 "Reptilianne" monster in your Graveyard, Banished Zone and Field. Target 1 Effect Monster your opponent controls; its ATK becomes 0 and its effect(s) are negated, until the End Phase. During your Standby Phase, if this card is in your Graveyard: You can Banish 1 "Reptilianne" monster in your Graveyard; add this card from your Graveyard to your hand."

 

Practically, it makes any 1 monster useless for 1 turn. Lets you pull out "Reptilianne Viper" considering you still have a Normal Summon, places a card ready for Vaskii and can even work as a form of bait, considering you can retrieve this card from the Graveyard and it is chainable. Would be a real shame for your opponent if they just tried to ram their Boss into Scylla...or you rammed her into theirs.[/spoiler]

[spoiler='Shadow Gorgon Eye']

"Once per turn, during either player's turn, you can Banish 1 "Reptilianne" monster in your hand or Graveyard; Special Summon this card from your Graveyard. When using this card as a Synchro Material Monster, the other Synchro Material Monsters must be "Reptilianne" monsters. A Synchro Monster that used this card as 1 of its Synchro Material Monsters gains the following effect: ●"When this card is Synchro Summoned: The ATK of all face-up monsters your opponent controls becomes 0"."

 

 

Translation: If you use this card to Synchro Summon "Reptilianne Hydra": Practically Raigeki your opponent and draw a lot, depending how badly you thrashed your opponent.

Although, the card is a Black Sheep. It is left out of a lot of support and makes Synchros a little harder for "Reptilliane", but I think the fact it can be an effective OTK stopper, Tribute fodder, Vaskii fodder and it works with all Synchros kind of balances it out.

[/spoiler]

[spoiler='Sacred Statuettes']

"Pay Life Points in multiples of 700; for each multiple of 700 payed, return 1 Banished Reptile-type monster to your Graveyard, then activate any of the following effect(s) based on how many "Reptilianne" monsters you returned: ●2+: Draw 1 card. ●4+: Add 1 "Reptilliane" or "Gorgon" card from your Deck to your hand. ●6+" Special Summon 1 "Gorgon" or Reptile-type monster from your Deck."

 

Aside from a Miracle Dig tech, this card will get back your precious "Reptilianne" from the Banished Zone to recover from all those costs and it is even a +2 with incredible set-up if you pay 4200 (Which...is more than the typical Solemn Judgement). It searches even the Spells/Traps and "Shadow Gorgon Eye", letting you set-up a large amount of plays to devastate your opponent, althought the LP cost is so high you'll only get one shot out of it.

 

Out of all, this is my favorite card.[/spoiler]

[spoiler='Cursed Mirror of the Gorgons']

"Activate only when your opponent targets a face-up "Reptilianne" or "Gorgon" card for a card effect: Banish 1 Reptile-type monster in your Graveyard; negate the activation of that card and destroy it, then, if you control a level 5 or higher "Reptilianne" monster, draw 1 card."

 

I'll say I honestly don't like how this turned out, but I had run out of ideas at this point and "Reptilianne" needed some sort of defense. So, I got this. I card that will kill anything that targets at practically no cost. That little bonus is simply a little something if they tried to do something with your Boss.[/spoiler]

im making new deck reptile monsters,some help whould be useful my dec is based to destroy oponents  with atk ,but they are weak at def ,might you could give me some advice about efects, the deck will be named  The Destroyers

[HopeFarron]

I love the Reptilliane deck, And I think it needs waaaaaaaaaaaaaay more support!!! I do think the Raptilliane Sea Gorgon is to OP for just 1 Reptilliane tribute though for 1 reason.... and that's because naga can't be destroyed by battle. So if I set Naga, I'm kinda guranteed to get him on the field next turn. Other than that I love everything :D
