The '''"Machine King"''' is a [[series]] of [[Monster Card|monsters]] who, for the most part, gain [[ATK]] when there are other [[Machine]]-[[Type]] monsters on the [[Playing Field|field]]. The lores of some Machine-Type cards mention serving the "Machine King". However, it is unknown which model of the "Machine King" they serve (Most most likely "[[Machine King]]" , since it was generally the only card of that name out at the time of their release, but this could generally mean any of them.).

== Machine King Decks Playing style=="A Machine King Deck focuses on the titular cards and swarming the field with [[Machine Kings]]" only have 4 cards only 3 of which are monsters so it . However, this is impossible not limited to make a good consistent Deck using only their archetype; but they your own monsters, you can be mixed with other Deck types like "[[Machina]]also swarm your opponent's field and then use " or "[[Chimeratech]]" Decks. Because of the effect of "[[Machine King - 3000 B.C.]]" it can be used in Decks using cards like "[[Tiki Curse]]DNA Surgery"to change them all into Machines.

This deck is essentially a Billy Beatdown Deck, as "[[Machine King]]" and its counterparts all focus on increasing its own attack through your own field presence. Commonly used with it is "[[Clockwork Night]]" and "[[DNA Surgery]]", so that your opponent's monsters are also changed to machines.  Machine support cards such as "[[Limiter Removal]]" work well in this Deck too. Although using "Limiter Removal" is somewhat reckless, doubling the ATK of all your Machine monsters for one turn could be just what you need to win the Duel. However, the real power of this Deck lies in your ability to swarm the field with monsters, including your opponent's field if you have "Clockwork Night"/"DNA Surgery", because more monsters means more ATK for "Machine King". "[[Chimeratech Fortress Dragon]]" can be deadly in this Deck. Because you can use your opponent's Machines as Fusion Materials for that card, when "Clockwork Night"/"DNA Surgery" is on the field you can clear your opponent's field for a direct attack. The deck can be hybridized with "[[Qliphort]]" cards; they can swarm the field with monsters via [[Pendulum Summon]], allowing for Tribute fodder for "Machine King" and "Perfect Machine King", with the added benefit of the "Qli" monsters effects activating from being tributed, as well as an ATK boost for the Machine King monsters from the presence of the "Qli" monsters since they are all Machines. The deck can also utilize the "[[Monarch (Spell/Trap archetype)|Monarch]]" Spells and Traps, as they are [[Tribute Summon]] focused. ===Recommended cards=== {{Archetype Decklist|Recommended cards<!--This is not an exact Decklist.

"[[Uria, Lord of Searing Flames]]" is also somewhat compatible with this Deck, as there are many Continuous Trap Cards that are crucial to this Deck. However, this Deck is weak against mass Trap removal, which is quite common. "[[Perfect Machine King]]", in particular, is a [[Level]] 8 monster, making it somewhat hard to Summon considering it has no uniquely easy way of Summoning. It is also vulnerable to most card-destruction effects, as it's one of the few newer two-Tributes with no innate effect negation and destruction. "Machine King", as well, is particularly weak even with its effect, as it's ATK is lackluster to begin with and its boost is not that substantial. {{Archseries navbox}}{{Archseries navbox (anime)}}{{Archseries navbox(Duel Links)}} [[Category:TCG and OCG series]]
