* [[Rope Solemn Judgment]]}}===Weaknesses===Despite their power, "Infernity" can be quite the glass-cannon as their reliance on having no hand can keep the player from using their effects if unable to discard. Cards like "[[Ash Blossom & Joyous Spring]]" and "[[Effect Veiler]]" can also harm the Deck significantly as shutting down the effects of Life"Archfiend" can be a death sentence. Cards like "[[Dimensional Fissure]]" will also stop it dead in its tracks. Another, arguably greater flaw is the Deck's reliance on an explosive start which can quickly drain resources and make it vulnerable if unable to go in for a quick kill.
== Trivia ==
* The Deck has great symbolism with its user in the anime, Kalin Kessler's mindset. Kalin believes he must pay for his wrongdoings, and "fate" determines whether or not he will win. He largely determines his win or loss off his topdecks, as he must have no cards in his hand when dueling. This can be well said about the play-style of "Infernity", as it is an almost guaranteed win if you draw a good hand, but you will likely lose very quickly if you draw a bad hand and are unable to empty it fast enough, unless you topdeck an extremely lucky card such as "Infernity Archfiend".* In the Japanese version manga, Kalin sometimes refers to his monsters as "Purgatory" monsters rather than "Infernity".* The handless effect of the "Infernity" archetype is identical to the "Hellbent" effect of the "Rakdos" related cards from Magic: The Gathering.** Additionally, the "Rakdos" cards use Red/Fire and Black/Darkness mana, while "Infernity" monsters are DARK monsters and their artwork generally depicts them in some fiery location or using fire.* "Infernity" is notorious for its ability to take huge advantage of new Summoning types and mechanics.** While initially doing little of note, the archetype quickly made great use of "[[YuBrionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier]]" pre-Gi-Oh! 5D'serrata.** During the [[Xyz Monster|Xyz era]], the Deck was able to abuse both "[[Leviair the Sea Dragon]] when " and "[[Kalin Kessler|KalinLavalval Chain]] says '''Infernity'''" to easily keep "Hundred Eyes Dragon" in a deadly state, you can mishear him saying '''Infinity'''even copying the effects of "Mirage" to keep the game in their favor. * In * During the [[Pendulum Monster|Pendulum era]] the archetype favored using a combination of "[[Performapal Skullcrobat Joker]]", "[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's - Episode 054Performapal Monkeyboard|Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's episode 54Monekyboard]] " and "[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's - Episode 055Performapal Lizardraw|Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's episode 55Lizardaw]]" to easily abuse [[Pendulum Summon]] the word '''Infernity''' ing, short-lived as it was used instead of '''Infernality'''. * The more recent additions * When [[Link Monster]]s were introduced, "Infernity" was almost immediately using a combination of the "[[Firewall Dragon]]", "[[Summon Sorceress]]" and "[[InfernityKnightmare Goblin]] archetype seem " to have a Western Shootout theme rise up once again prior to themthe cards in question being banned.== References ==<references />{{ArchetypeNavbox|InfernityArchseries navbox}}{{Archseries navbox (anime)}}{{Archseries navbox (manga)}}{{Archseries navbox (Duel Links)}}[[Category:ArchetypeTCG and OCG archetypes]]
