Strike First. Strike Hard. No Mercy.
So you what to be a badass and play reptiles, have access to super powerful card effects like Snake Rain! Well let me teach you how not to be a *****!
Strike First:
- Any hand with Snake Rain is basically a one card combo. Activate Snake Rain discarding any one card from your hand and send Nauya, the Ogdoadic Remmant, Night Sword Serpent, Keurse, the Ogdoadic Light and Nephilabyss, the Ogdoadic Overlord. Activate the effect of Night Sword Serpent to Special Summon from the GY Night Sword Serpent.
- Use the effect of Keurse, the Ogdoadic Light , tribute Night End Serpent and special summon Keurse from the GY, then special summon Nauya, the Ogdoadic Remmant from your GY (your opponent will also be able to summon a monster from the GY but it's effects will be negated). Activate the on summon effect of Nauya to add Ogdoadic Daybreak or Ogdoadic Water Lily if you already have Daybreak in hand. Activate the effect of Ogdoadic Daybreak tribute Keurse, the Ogdoadic Light, this will allow to summon Ogdoadic Tokens for every two levels the monster had. Summon 4 tokens. Using Nauya and any token special summon Haggard Lizardose.
- Activate the effect of Haggard Lizardose, banish Nauya and target Lizardose. Since you banished a reptile you can draw one card. Use any token and Haggard Lizardose and special summon Cosmic Slicer Zer'oll from you Extra Deck then add Planet Pollutant Virus from your deck to your hand. Using your last two tokens special summon Alien Shocktrooper M-Frame. Using the GY effect of Ogdoadic Daybreak Banish Ogdoadic Daybreak, this will allow you to send any reptile from your deck to the GY. In this cases we'll send Mitsurugi no Mikoto, Saji to the GY and since we sent a reptile deck to the GY Nephilabyss, the Ogdoadic Overlord effect activates which allows us to special summon it from the GY.
- Using the on field effect of Overlord special summon any reptile from your GY, in this case we'll summon Mitsurugi no Mikoto. Using the on summon effect of Mitsurugi no Mikoto add Mitsurugi Great Purification or Mitsurugi Prayers. If you add Mitsurugi Prayers you can activate the card tribute Mikoto , add Mitsurugi no Mikoto, Kusanagi, Then pay 800 life points and special summon Mitsurugi no Mikoto, Kusanagi. Using the on summon effect Kusanagi add Mikoto to hand. Normal summon Mikoto, overlay both Mikoto and Kusanagi. Special summon King of the Feral Imps and add Liberator Eto (if you choose to play it you can add Reptilianne Nyami instead)
Finally set your trap card(s) and end your turn.
Strike Hard:
- Liberator Eto is a badass card. During your turn it's uneffected by the monster effects activated on your opponents field and has a whole 4000 atk. During the second turn if your opponent has broken through your defenses you can use it as part of your follow up. However don't play it first. To play Cobra Kai you have to think like a cobra and play low to the ground. You can get your comeback started with any card that has effect to send a reptile to the GY (Foolish Burial, Chaos Space, Ogdoadic Water Lily, Nauya, the Ogdoadic Remmant and Nunu, the Ogdoadic Remmant) in this case we'll use the effect of Nauya, the Ogdoadic Remmant to send Nunu, the Ogdoadic Remmant from you deck to the GY.
- You can then use the effect of Overlord since you have sent a reptile to the GY and special summon that Overlord from your GY you can now use the effect of overlord and special summon Nauya from your GY using the on summon effect of Nauya to add Ogdoadic Daybreak to your hand now you can use the effect of Nunu and special summon it from your GY. Now special summon any Link-2 reptile using Nunu and a token. Activate Daybreak and special summon 4 tokens. Using a token and Link-2 special summon Ragnaraika Selene Snapper from your Extra Deck. You can use it's effect to banish any 2 monsters, target and destory any 2 Spell/Trap cards on the field. Using Snapper and 2 tokens special summon Ragnaraika Chain Coils. Activate the effect of Snapper in the GY and place Nauya on top of the deck and special summon Snapper from your GY.
- Finallly Special Liberator Eto
No Mercy:
There are a LOT more subtle combos in deck that will come in time to a true Cobra like yourself. But here are some tips to get you started!
- In certain hands you can set up both Ragnaraika Chain Coils and Cosmic Slicer Zer'oll with Planet Pollutant Virus. Using the combo you learn in Strike Hard you pretty have what you need. When you get to your Link-2 summon Haggard Lizardose as when use Haggard Lizardose's effect to banish you get to draw a card if that card is a reptile. Once you have your 4 tokens you can into Cosmic Slicer Zer'oll with any token and lizardose, Zer'oll will than add Planet Pollutant Virus with it's on summon effect.
- Using the remaining tokens and an extender for Reptilianne Coatl example Special Summon Chain Coils from the extra deck. You haven't used your normal summon yet so normal summon a reptile monster and we'll pretend that we sent Keurse, the Ogdoadic Light to the GY earlier tribute that monster and special summon it then summon any Ogdoadic from your GY using their effect. Then use that monster and Keurse to specal summon Alien Shocktrooper M-Frame from the extra deck. Finally set Planet Pollutant Virus. On the next turn tribute M-Frame. All your opponents monsters will now have A-Counters until the end of their 3rd turn (6 turns in total including yours). Any monsters with A-Counters cannot activate their effects thanks to the effect of Cosmic Slicer Zer'oll and as soon as they activate a monsters effect in the hand they won't be able to activate another due to Ragnaraika Chain Coils's effect (You won't be able to either though...) this complete locks them out from playing activating any monsters. But they can still activate Spell/Traps so be careful...
*IMPORTANT*
A lot of you may see the price and cringe but if you don't play Chaos Angel, Ty-Phon or Azulea You can Knock-Off around 75 dollars and another 4 if your don't play Ahashima. You almost never summon these cards but they are all corner case that come up every so often. SO invest don't invest your choice really :0
