"rocesslayer", known as Zanki (斬機ザンキ Zanki) in the OCG, is an archetype of Cyberse monsters introduced in Deck Build Pack: Mystic Fighters. It is comprised of primarily Level 4 Cyberse monsters of various Attributes that focus on Synchro and Xyz Summoning.

Etymology

"rocesslayer" appears to be themed around Mathematics with their names deriving from mathmatic processors of various kinds. In Japanese, "Zanki" means "cutting machine", but also sounds like "Sanki", which means "calculator", a non-computer processor. The "rocesslayer" Synchro monsters, the Pyrocesslayers, are "Enzanki", which can mean both "flame cutting machine" and "arithmetic unit". The "rocesslayer" Xyz monsters, the Batch Processlayers, are "Kaizanki", which means "mass cutting machine", and is also a play on "Keisanki", likely meant to reference Batch Processing.

Playing style

The "rocesslayer" theme focuses on the use of Level 4 Cyberse monsters with a range of attributes (FIRE, EARTH, LIGHT, and DARK) with the goal of going second mainly and swarming the field with materials in order to Synchro Summon and Xyz Summon. The main play enablers are the duo of Level 4 Tuner monsters, the LIGHT Attribute "Processlayer Sigma" and DARK Attribute "Processlayer Nabla", as well as the FIRE Attribute "Processlayer Addion" and "Processlayer Subtra" and the EARTH Attribute "Processlayer Multiplier" and "Processlayer Division". Every Processlayer Main Deck Monster includes an effect to Special Summon itself or other monsters, excluding Multiplier, who instead can double the level of a Level 4 Cyberse monster to Level 8 for the turn. These effects can range from summoning from hand, Deck, and GY and even multiple locations, as seen with Division's effect to tribute a Cyberse monster to Special Summon 2 Level 4 Cyberse Monsters, 1 from hand and 1 from GY.

The primary monsters to make with these summoned resources include the Level 8 FIRE Cyberse Synchro Tuner Effect monster, "Pyrocesslayer Magma", the Level 12 FIRE Cyberse Synchro Effect monster "Pyrocesslayer Final Sigma", as well as the Rank 4 EARTH Cyberse Xyz Effect monster, "Batch Processlayer Laplacian". From there, the deck focuses on an OTK and beatdown strategy through its Synchro Monsters with added disruption abilities from the Xyz Monster. Pyrocesslayer Magma is capable of destroying two cards your opponent controls when it destroys a monster by battle and searching a "rocesslayer" Spell/Trap when destroyed itself. Batch Processlayer Laplacian gives the deck protection and disruption capabilities when going first. Pyrocesslayer Final Sigma, however, is the ultimate goal of this deck. Summon it to your Extra Monster Zone as it becomes unaffected from card effects if in the EMZ, as well as dealing double damage; combined with doubled ATK Stats through the effect of Multiplier and multiple attacking through Nabla.

In addition, the deck's Spells and Traps allow for revival and ATK boosting with Processlayer Formula, triggering effects of various Processlayer Main Deck monsters with the Equip Spell, Processlayer Divider Nayuta, further ATK boosting and card removal with Processlayer Induction, and quick Extra Deck Summoning through Processlayer Superfactorial.
