Levia-Dragon - Daedalus
"Levia-Dragon - Daedalus", a Sea Serpent monster.

Sea Serpent (海（かい）竜（りゅう） Kairyū, "Sea Dragon") is a Type of Monster Card.

Overview

Sea Serpent monsters are typically depicted as sea dragons or marine reptiles, though some Sea Serpent monsters (particularly lower-level ones) were also depicted as fishmen as well as merman and mermaid, and thus shared characteristic with the related Fish and Aqua types. Most of Sea Serpent were WATER, though a handful of Sea Serpents of other main attributes also exists.

In terms of gameplay, Sea Serpent monsters often utilize Discard or similar effects to gain an advantage, with the low-level monsters often have a beneficial effect when being used as a cost for certain effects of high-level monsters. Though due to the relatively low member count, they were typically played alongsides the Fish and Aqua types, all of which shared generic WATER support to help supplement the grind game.

In Rush Duel, Sea Serpent monsters usually have an effect to manipulate Graveyard, either by shuffling cards in GY as a cost to activate an effect or gains beneficial effect while having no cards in GY.
