[Written] Vennomizeus the Prince of Poisonous Snakes

[Monarch King]

DARK

Reptile/Effect

Level 5

ATK 0, DEF 0

 

 

If you control a face-up "Venom" monster with a different name, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand). This card gains 500 ATK for each Reptile-Type monster in your Graveyard. You can remove Venom Counters from anywhere on the field to activate one of these effects.

1 Counter: Target 1 Spell/Trap Card on the field; destroy it.

2 Counters: Target 1 monster on the field; destroy it.

3 Counters: Draw 1 card.

4 Counters: Shuffle 1 card from the field into the Deck.

You can only use this effect of "Vennomizeus the Prince of Poisonous Snakes" once per turn.

I like this card. I just want to note a couple things though:

1. You don't need "with a different name" in the summon condition since it technically isn't a "Venom" monster.

2. Because it isn't a "Venom" monster, it will get affected by Swamp. I assume this is intentional so that you could get at least 2 counters a turn, but it will null its ATK gaining effect pretty effectively.

 

Overall though, I'm loving the flavor and since it is only level 5, it isn't all that far-fetched to tribute summon it normally either.
