Sarcophagus (
Design[edit]
"Spirit of the Pharaoh" is based on Tutankhamun, "Pharaonic Protector" and "Pharaoh's Servant" are based on his servants, and the "First", "Second " and "Third" sarcophagi are based on the three mummiform coffins found on Tutankhamun's tomb, two made of gilded wood and the innermost composed of pure gold.
Playing style[edit]
The strategy is to use the effect of "The First Sarcophagus" to summon "Spirit of the Pharaoh", whose effect allows to Special Summon up to 4 Level 2 or lower Zombie Normal Monsters from the player's Graveyard. "Zombie World" turns all monsters in the GY into Zombies, giving the player more options to summon.
Weakness[edit]
Neither "The Second Sarcophagus" or "The Third Sarcophagus" can be played outside of the effect of "The First Sarcophagus", making both dead draws (this may be prevented by using the last effect of "Saryuja Skull Dread"). Also, if any of the "Sarcophagi" leaves the field, all the other are destroyed.
