Card Tips:Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes

"Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes":

Advanced Format

"Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes" works well with any Reptile monsters in your Graveyard even Reptile-type Alien monsters. For this reason, this card could potentially work just as well in an Alien-based deck as well as a Venom deck. It also works well with a "Reptilliane" deck.

"Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes" works well in a reptile-based Worm deck, especially when "Future Fusion" is activated to Fusion Summon "Worm Zero", thus turning this card into a powerful beatstick with up to 13500 ATK.

To make sure to have some Reptile-type monsters in your graveyard for reviving and increasing the ATK of "Vennominon the King of Poisonous Snakes" and Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes", you can use "Snake Whistle", "Snake Rain", "Damage = Reptile", "Card Trooper", "Magical Merchant", ect.

Use "Damage = Reptile" or "Damage Condenser" to quickly summon "Vennominon the King of Poisonous Snakes" to later sacrifice for "Vennominaga".

To quickly Special Summon "Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes" on the field, make sure you have "Vennominon the King of Poisonous Snakes" and a Set "Rise of the Snake Deity" on your side of the field. You can then use any number of destructive effects upon "Vennominon" to force the summon of "Vennominaga". "Offering to the Snake Deity" is designed for this purpose and is therefore the most efficient card to use for this effect. Other cards that work well are potentially "Hammer Shot", "Tribute to the Doomed" or "Offerings to the Doomed," "Snipe Hunter" has an effect to destroy a face-up card on the field, this can also be used to force out "Vennominaga".

"Final Attack Orders" forces all face-up monsters to go into attack position. This can help you put Hyper-Venom Counter more easily or simply allow you to finish off your opponent's life points. "Ojama Trio" can allow you easy access to the opponent's life points if used alongside "Final Attack Orders".

A good strategy and a probable OTK is to summon "Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes" by itself and then activate "Ojama Trio". Then during your opponents standby phase activate "Battle Mania". This will force all 3 Ojama Tokens to attack "Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes" resulting in 3 Hyper Venom Counters and an instant win.

Chain "Torrential Tribute" to "Vennominaga's" summoning, clearing the field and allowing "Vennominaga" to place it's first Hyper-Venom counter much more easily.

Use "Limit Reverse" to Special Summon "Vennominon the King of Poisonous Snakes", then change it to Defence Position to destroy it to easily Special Summon this card with "Rise of the Snake Deity"

As you will likely also have "Venom Swamp" on the field, along with "Light of Intervention", "Lightning Vortex" can clear the field for "Vennominaga" to attack directly, in addition to sending another Reptile-Type monster to the Graveyard to boost "Vennominaga"'s ATK.

While this card cannot be destroyed or removed from the field by card effects, it can be tributed for "Lava Golem" or "Volcanic Queen". Keep a "Mask of Restrict" handy to prevent this.

Use "Des Feral Imp" to further power up "Vennominaga", and that way if your "Rise of the Snake Deity" is negated/destroyed you can still have another chance. Also helps if you forced to discard "Vennominaga" and other similar situations.

This card cannot be directly affected by card effects, but it is still dependent upon Reptiles being in the Graveyard to have any ATK, and it can be destroyed by battle. Cards that boost ATK by an enormous amount, such as "Metalmorph" or "The Wicked Avatar", can allow the opponent to overwhelm it, and any card effect that would remove Reptiles from the Graveyard is highly devastating to "Vennominaga". Such removal cards include "Fiend Comedian", "Big Burn", "Soul Release", "The Transmigration Prophecy" and most devastating, "Rainbow Neos".

Remember that "Zombie World" can be fatal for this card. All of your Reptiles in your Graveyard will become Zombies, and "Venominaga's" ATK will fall to 0. Any monster could destroy her in one shot, and she won't be able to resurrect. Keep some "Mystical Space Typhoon", "Cursed Seal of the Forbidden Spell" or a "Solemn Judgment" in your deck to prevent this. Worm Apocalypse's Flip Effect can also destroy Zombie World.

Use "Attack Pheromones" to force enemy monsters attacked by your weaker Venom monsters to Attack Position to deal your final damage for a damage win or to get three Hyper Venom Counters.

"Big Bang Shot" on another monster or "Red Dragon Archfiend" will keep your opponent from hiding behind defense position monsters since all effect wont effect "Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes".
