"[[Serziel, Watcher of the Evil Eye|Serziel]]" searches on Normal Summon, "[[Medusa, Watcher of the Evil Eye|Medusa]]" recovers from GY on Normal Summon, while "[[Zerrziel, Ruler of the Evil Eyed|Zerrziel]]" and "[[Gorgon, Empress of the Evil Eyed|Gorgon]]" have additional battle-boosting effects. "Serziel" is the most important monster among them:Zerachielit can search any "Evil Eye" card, including "Evil Eye of Selene", when Normal Summoned, making it the central searcher for the Deck and the Deck's primary Normal Summon and board presence.The other "Evil Eye" monsters, "[[Basilius, Familiar of the Evil Eye|Basilius]]" and "[[Catoblepas, Familiar of the Evil Eye|ZerachielCatoblepas]]" provide additional situational utility, such as extension, [[mill]]ing, and protection.Outside of "Evil Eye of Selene", there are three other "Evil Eye" Spell/Traps of note: "[[Evil Eye Domain - Pareidolia]]" is the Deck's [[Field Spell]], and is an "Evil Eye" monster searcher. "[[Evil Eye of Gorgoneio]]" is a weaker substitute for "Evil Eye of Selene" that provides different utility effects. "[[Evil Eye Repose]]" is a situational resource cycling and removal card.The other "Evil Eye" Spell/Traps round out the strategy with additional interruptions and utility, and they are also strengthened if the player has "Evil Eye of Selene" active. They typically require the player to control an "Evil Eye" monster to be activated.{| class="wikitable" style="text-align: center"! Evil Eye! Type! Effect!

 ==Playing style==Each monster "Evil Eye" is almost always played as a control Deck, and typically centers on Normal Summoning "Serziel" (which itself can be searched through "Pareidolia") to search for "Evil Eye of this Selene" and equipping it to "Serziel". The high-protection "Serziel" would then typically be backed up with staple cards; additional in-archetype has cards beyond the "Serziel" engine is typically kept to a Quick effect minimum, and are only searched if they're equipped with the player has additional searching capacity.Similarily to the minimalist "Evil Eye" control builds, "Serziel", "[[Evil Eye of Selene]]" , and "Pareidolia" can also be played as a second effect triggered during the next Standby Phase after using splashable engine, providing a potent Normal Summon for Decks that effectdo not rely on Normal Summons.===Recommended cards===
