Malefics function well as an anti-meta Deck, revolving primarily around the cards The "[[Necrovalley]]," "[[Geartown]]" and "[[Skill Drain]]." Geartown allows you to maintain field presence even if your Field Spell is destroyed by summoning Malefic"archetype has an [[Ancient Gear Gadjiltron Dragonaggro]]," who can be discarded using "[[Trade-In]]" to add consistency to the Deck. Cards such as "[[Beast King Barbarosbeatdown]]" and "[[Fusilier Dragonplaying style, through the Dualemployment of various high-Mode Beast]]" can be Summoned under "Skill Drain" with their full attack. "Beast King Barbaros" is Level 8, and therefore compatible with "Trade-In", while "Fusilier" is DARK, and therefore compatible with "[[Allure of DarknessLevel]]", "[[Deck Devastation Virus]]" DARK monsters strong effects and "good [[Eradicator Epidemic VirusATK]]values.Most "Malefic" Necrovalley will prevent your opponent from summoning or banishing monsters from their graveyard, shutting out a majority of popular Decks while not affecting the Malefics. With Skill Drain preventing access to monster effects, Necrovalley locking the grave and access to a large amount of beatsticks, an anti-meta variant of Malefics can be potent. As the Deck does not make use of the graveyard, cards such as "[[Macro Cosmos]]" are excellent side-Deck choices, shutting down popular Decks such as "[[Dark WorldSpecial Summon]]," "ed via [[Inzektorbanish]]s," and "[[Laval]]s." This Deck is based on banishing monsters ing their original counterparts from the [[Extra Deckhand]] and , [[Main Deck|Deck]] to Special Summon powerful monsters and overwhelm the opponent. Because of the large amount of monster removal, "or [[Different DimensionExtra Deck]]" while a [[Spell Card|Field Spell]] and [[Trap Card]]s are usefulis present. Because most of the "Malefic" monsters are DragonsAs they destroy themselves when there is no active Field Spell, you can use "[[Burial from a Different Dimension]]" and "[[Malefic Stardust Dragon's Mirror]]" or at least [[Side Deck]] them. Since most monsters needed to Summon "Malefic" monsters need to be in is an incredibly useful monster for the Deck, "[[Card Trader]]", or "[[Draconnection]]" can be used to return unnecessary cards to protecting any active Field Spells while on the Deckfield. The most common [[Their own Field Spell Card]] that is played in this Deck is "[[Malefic World]]", but before this card was released, [[Field Spell Card]]s which could prevent their own destruction (such as "[[Ancient City - Rainbow Ruins]]" or "[[Magical Citadel of Endymion]]"), as well as cards like "[[Field Barrier]]", were pivotal to a successful Deck ("[[Malefic Stardust Dragon]]" will help with this)."[[Terraforming]]" can also help by searching for a Field Spell. Although "Malefic Stardust Dragon" will lose its protection effect, "[[Skill Drain]]" will [[negate]] the negative effects of allows the "Malefic" monsters and allow them player to stay on the field even without a Field card, as well as allow your other monsters to attack, which makes all "Malefic" monsters great beatsticks for a "forfeit their [[Skill Drain DeckNormal draw]]". "[[Axe in favor of Fools]]" will also have the same effect on adding any one "Malefic" monster, as well as give it a 1000 ATK increase. "[[The Dark Door]]" can be used from their Deck to limit your opponent to one attacktheir hand, and will not affect you since you can usually only attack with one monster anyway. "[[Kaiser Colosseum]]" can be used to also limit your opponent to 1 Monster. "[[Cyber Dragon]]" also works in this Deck to maintain field presence since it can be easy to clear your field (as you'll usually be using one monster albeit at a time due to the Malefic monsteropponent's limitations)mercy. "[[Jinzo]]" Said Field Spell is a great monster to use as well. You can Special Summon "Cyber Dragon", tribute it for "Jinzo", and then summon a "Malefic" Monster and have it avoid your opponent's Trap Cards. easily searched by not only "[[Royal DecreeTerraforming]]" works in this respect as well. As for Field Spells, but their own "[[Malefic WorldTerritory]]", which not only provides targeting protection from the likes of "[[Dragon RavineCosmic Cyclone]]", "[[Magical Citadel but also removes a glaring weakness of most of the stronger members of Endymion]]" and "[[the archetype: The Seal of Orichalcos]]" could prove inability to be useful. control more than 1 "CitadelMalefic" is monster - by altering the easiest-effect to-protect Field Spell since this deck runs a lot instead prevent multiple copies of Spell cards, giving "Citadel" multiple Spell counters to protect itself with. "The Seal" is also useful in this regard as it can increase that monster being on the ATK of field - and allowing all your already powerful monsters even further as well as protect itself (albeit to a lesser extent than "Citadel"). "[[Dragon Ravine]]" can send attack while controlling a "Malefic Truth Dragon" to monster though at the Graveyard for use later in the game and cost of any battle-related effects a "[[Malefic World]]" gives you ample searching abilitymonster may have. Another pair of key cards are "[[TerraformingMalefic Parallel Gear]]" and "[[Demise of the Land]]" can be used to search out your Field Spells. Another interesting type of playing style revolves around "[[Malefic Paradox DragonGear]]", "as the former simply allows you to [[Malefic Truth DragonSynchro Summon]]", "a [[Dark SimorghSynchro Monster]]by using another ", and Malefic"[[Redmonster from your hand as the non-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon]]". If any Field Spell besides "[[Malefic WorldTuner]]material; " is up, Paradox Gear"can [[Malefic Paradox DragonTribute]]" is instantly destroyed, allowing you itself to Special Summon "[[Malefic Truth Dragon]]Parallel Gear", who remains safe since any Field Spell will keep it alive. Then, "[[Red-Eyes Darkness Metal Dragon]]" gives from the Deck longevity by constantly reviving [[Malefic Paradox Dragon]] (as it's not a Nomi monster) and by extension add 1 other "[[Malefic Truth Dragon]]". With "Dark Simorgh" in play, monster from the Deck to your opponent won't be able to Set their monsters or Traps cardshand, allowing you to take full advantage while acting as the original counterpart for any of the "Malefics'" high ATK power-Level members. AlsoThrough these monsters, "[[Dragon's Rage]]" has proved useful in certain situationsthe player is capable of easily Synchro Summoning powerful Level 9, as every Malefic monster is Dragon-Type besides "[[Malefic Cyber End Dragon]]" and "[[Malefic Parallel Gear]]"10 or 12 Synchro Monsters.
You can include Unlike other members of the archetype, "[[RMalefic Red-Genex TurboEyes Black Dragon]]" and "[[RMalefic Blue-Genex OracleEyes White Dragon]]" into your Deck to Synchro Summon can be Special Summoned from the GY after they're Summoned properly first, allowing "[[Locomotion RRed-GenexEyes Darkness Metal Dragon]]", since both to quickly make a [[Link Monster]] with them or act as additional beatsticks. "[[Malefic Stardust DragonSelector]]" adds yet another layer of searching though it restricts the player from searching the same monsters [[banish]]ed and with the same name as each other. "[[Malefic BlueDivide]]" is also essentially a [[Quick-Eyes White DragonPlay Spell]] "[[Monster Reborn]]" are Level 8 DARK monstersfor the archetype. Finally, that "[[Malefic Tune]]" can be easily Searched used in a pinch for more [[Draw a card|draws]] and Summonedyet more searching although its status as a [[Trap Card]] makes it slower and more likely to be [[destroy]]ed before the effect can be applied.
You ===Weaknesses===* Anti-[[Special Summon]] cards such as "[[Fossil Dyna Pachycephalo]]" and "[[Thunder King Rai-Oh]]" are very dangerous to a "Malefic" Deck, since almost none of the "Malefic" monsters can be [[Normal Summon]]ed. Other options include "[[Koa'ki Meiru Drago]]", "[[Consecrated Light]]" and the "[[Barrier Statue]]" monsters. "Thunder King Rai-Oh" is especially dangerous as it prevents the effects of "Malefic World" and "Terraforming" from being activated/applied.** "[[Skill Drain]]" is a good counter these monsters' effects, as well as having a combo lot of synergy with the "Malefic" Deck.* "[[Grave of the Super Ancient Organism]]" is a useful floodgate against "Malefic" Decks.* "[[Artifact Lancea]]" and "[[Ojama TrioImperial Iron Wall]]"/prevents both players from banishing cards, making almost all "Malefic" monsters impossible to Summon.* Since several "Malefic" monsters need their original forms to be in the Deck or [[Extra Deck]] to be Special Summoned by their intended procedure, [[mill]] cards (such as "[[Needle Worm]]", "[[Gravekeeper's Servant]]", "[[Nightmare ArchfiendsAgido the Ancient Sentinel]]" , and "[[Battle ManiaKelbek the Ancient Vanguard]]") as well as cards that remove cards from your opponent's Extra Deck (such as "[[Dogmatika]]"cards) can potentially be useful. In the case of the former, this is not very problematic due to "[[Malefic Paradox Gear]]" though.* Since most "Malefic" monsters are [[destroy]]ed if there is no [[Field Spell Card]] on the [[field]], having good access to Spell/Trap removal severely limits the "Malefic" player's ability to maintain field presence if "[[Malefic Stardust Dragon]]" and/or "[[All-Out AttacksMalefic Territory]]" for an OTKare not present on the field.
An alternative strategy for "Malefics" is to use their high Attacks for stalling instead of attacking. Use [[Final Countdown]], [[Wave Motion Cannon]] and cards that can prevent your cards from being destroyed (like "[[Magic Reflector]]", "[[Imperial Custom]]" and "[[Safe Zone]]"). "[[Cost Down]]" can reduce "Malefic Stardust Dragon"'s level in your hand, which can let you use "[[Malefic Parallel Gear]]" to Synchro Summon "[[Stardust Dragon]]". "[[Macro Cosmos]]", "[[All-Out Attacks]]", "[[Deck Devastation Virus]]", "[[Eradicator Epidemic Virus]]", "[[Skill Drain]]" and "[[Clear World]]" make it one of the most powerful archetypes for stalling anti-meta (you can still unleash your Malefic's ATK power to finish off your opponent). ===Recommended cards==={{Decklist|Recommended Cardscards

==Weaknesses==
* The easiest and fastest way to defeat this Deck is to activate "[[Imperial Iron Wall]]", which would make almost all "Malefic" monsters impossible to Summon. Since a Malefic Deck probably won't have many low [[Level]] monsters in their Deck your opponent will probably have a clear field for quite a few turns. A good way to counter this would be with all-purpose Spell and Trap removal cards such as "[[Mystical Space Typhoon]]".
* The most common and certainly the most reliable way to defeat this Deck is with anti-[[Special Summon]] cards such as "[[Fossil Dyna Pachycephalo]]" and "[[Thunder King Rai-Oh]]", since almost none of the "Malefic" monsters can be [[Normal Summon]]ed. This also gives "[[Grave of the Super Ancient Organism]]", a card that is very rarely useful, a chance to stall. "Thunder King Rai-Oh" is especially dangerous as it negates the effect of "[[Malefic World]]" and "[[Terraforming]]". "[[Skill Drain]]" can counter these monster effects, as well as having a lot of synergy with the Malefic Deck. "[[Blue-Eyes White Dragon]]" and "[[Red-Eyes B. Dragon]]" CAN be Normal Summoned but it is almost next to impossible with this Deck, and hence they are almost always dead if drawn. "[[Koa'ki Meiru Drago]]" and "[[Consecrated Light]]" also kill this Deck as they prevent DARK monsters from being Special Summoned. Another method people use would be Synchro Summoning [[Ancient Fairy Dragon]] to destroy a field spell, thus destroying any "Malefic" monsters, while also gaining 1000 life points in return.
* Since the "Malefic" monsters need their original forms to be in the Deck, [[Mill|Deck Destruction]] cards such as "[[Needle Worm]]", "[[Gravekeeper's Servant]]", and "[[Doom Dozer]]" can be useful. "[[Dark Designator]]" and "[[Respect Play]]" can be a good combo as well. If your opponent controls a "Malefic" monster and they have one in their hand you can use "[[Dark Designator]]" to add the non-Malefic version to your opponents hand, so they can't banish it from their [[Deck]] (but it's likely that they'll have another copy in their Deck). This combo, however, will not work against "[[Malefic Stardust Dragon]]," "[[Malefic Cyber End Dragon]]," "[[Malefic Rainbow Dragon]]," or "[[Malefic Truth Dragon]]," so "[[Dragunity Knight - Trident]]" and "[[Extra Gate]]" is your best bet. Also, since they need [[Field Spell Card]]s you can activate "[[Field Barrier]]" when no Field Spells are active to keep them off the field and give your opponent more useless draws.
* [[Mirror Match]]ing against a "Malefic" Deck can be risky, as all "Malefic" monsters (with the exception of "[[Malefic Paradox Dragon]]"), "there can only be one [[face-up]] Malefic monster on the [[field]]", so your opponent can lock you out of Summoning your "Malefic" monsters if they have Summoned one of their own. [[Creature Swap]] can also work the same way.
* The masks worn by the "Malefic" monsters are based on those of their user [[Paradox]], which in turn are based on features of his face; the black half has lines based off his red eyebrow, and the left based on the monocle he wore in life.* In the trailers shown before every episode{{fact}} are nine face-down cards. The first 5 are the "Malefic" monsters that were corrupted versions of original Dragons. The sixth is "[[Elemental HERO Neos Knight]]", the seventh is "[[Junk Gardna]]", the eighth is "[[Malefic Parallel Gear]]", and the ninth is "[[Malefic Paradox Dragon]]". ** All of these cards are featured prominently in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 3D Bonds Beyond Time]]'' movie. The "Malefic" monsters have also appeared in alternate versions of the ''[[FREEDOM]] '' and ''[[-OZONE-]] '' animations that used footage from the film.* All seven "Malefic" [[Spell]]/[[Trap Cards Card]]s in Japanese have their names printed in English.* "Malefic" monsters share some traits with two other archetypes used by antagonists in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]'' anime; "[[Earthbound Immortal]]" and "[[Meklord Emperor]]".** "Earthbound Immortal": Both archetypes consist of [[DARK]]-[[Attribute]] monsters, they are (for "Malefic", most are) [[Field-Unique]] and [[destroy]] themselves if a [[Field Spell Card]] is not present on the [[field]].** "Meklord Emperor": They share an effect which prevents other monsters their user controls from attacking.

"'''Malefic'''", known as "'''Sin'''" ({{Ruby|Ｓｉｎ|シン}} ''Shin'') in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! Official Card Game|''OCG]]'']], is an [[archetype]] of cards which were introduced in the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 3D Bonds Beyond Time]] ''movie. They , in which they are used by [[Paradox]], and are almost exclusively corrupted versions of existing monsters. Paradox, who plays the The "Malefic" Deck, claims that these cards monsters are are the most powerful cards in history, due to the fact that they aren't bound to all [[Normal SummonDARK]]ing rules. The only monsters known in this archetype are "[[Malefic Blue-Eyes White Dragon]]", "[[Malefic Red-Eyes B. Dragon|Malefic Red-Eyes Black Dragon]]", "or [[Malefic Stardust DragonMachine]]", "-[[Malefic Cyber End DragonType]]", and "[[Malefic Rainbow Dragon]]", monsters. Most of them are corrupted versions of their non-"Malefic" the [[counterpartsignature card]]s; as well as 3 unique monsters, "[[Malefic Parallel Gear]]", "[[Malefic Paradox Dragon]]" and "[[Malefic Truth Dragon]]". The "Sin" part of the name is always written in English as Malefic. Almost all "Malefic" monsters are [[Special Summon]]ed by banishing their original form characters from the ''[[Main Deck|Deck]] or [[Extra Deck]] Yu-Gi-Oh! (in the movie, they are instead sent to the [[Graveyard]]anime). They share three aspects with the "[[Earthbound Immortal]]" archetype: Both archetypes consist of [[DARK|DARK AttributeYu-Gi-Oh!]] monsters'', only one of them can be on the ''[[Playing Field|fieldYu-Gi-Oh! GX]] at a time (in the movie'', more than one can be present) and ''[[destroyYu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]] themselves if a [[Field Spell Card|Field Spell]] is not present. They also have an effect in common with the "[[Meklord Emperors]]" which prevents other monsters you control from attacking ('' anime; in the movieparticular, they don't have this effect either)are corrupted versions of dragons or mechanical dragons.==Anime==The first two "Malefic" monsters, "[[Malefic Blue-Eyes White Dragon]]" and "[[Malefic Red-Eyes B. Dragon]]", had no effects besides Paradox claims that they are the aforementioned ones. The thirdmost powerful cards in history, "[[Malefic Stardust Dragon]]", offers support due to the theme by protecting fact that they are not bound to [[Field Spell Card]] from destruction by card effects. The fourth, "[[Malefic Truth Dragon]]" is able to Special Normal Summon itself from the [[hand]] or [[Graveyard]] and allows other monsters you [[control]] to attack, as well as destroying all opponents monsters when it destroys something by battleing rules. In the movie, "[[Malefic Cyber End Dragon]]" retained its original formmonsters were much more flexible than their ''OCG''/''s [[Piercing]] effect, while in the [[TCG]]/[[OCG]] it has no effects besides the standard ones, as with the first two. "[[Malefic Parallel Gear]]" allows you to use 1 '' cards; multiple "Malefic" monster in your hand for a [[Synchro Summon]]monsters could exist on the field at once, they did not impose attack restrictions on their controller and "[[Malefic Paradox Dragon]]" when Summoned can Special Summon a [[Synchro Monster]] from either player's Graveyard. "[[Malefic Rainbow Dragon]]", is unique for allowing a player to banish "[[Rainbow Dragon]]" from the hand in addition original monsters were sent to the [[Main Deck|DeckGraveyard]]. The movie versions (instead of "being [[Malefic Paradox Dragonbanish]]" ed), thus allowing Paradox to easily and "[[Malefic Truth Dragon]]" both have their own effects as wellconstantly swarm the field with his powerful monsters. ==Design ==[[File:The Sin Archetype.jpg|thumb|leftright|300px|Designs of "Malefic" monsters]]===Etymology===The Japanese name for this archetype, "Sin", is meant as a pun on the words for "truth" ("shin") and "sin" ("tsumi"), alluding to the truth of human nature as seen by Paradox—that humanity's errors have led to the world's destruction.The English name "Malefic" means "having or asserting a negative influence", referring to how these cards are corrupted versions of existing cards.===Appearance ===
Many "Malefic" monsters have mechanical-looking pieces of their body which are made of a mix of white, grey and black metal, including wings and face-plates (and, in the case of "[[Malefic Stardust Dragon]]", knee and torso plates). Their faces have masks similar to that of Paradox, with the right side black, the left side white and line patterns that cover the eyes ("[[Malefic Cyber End Dragon]]" also has its far right head black and far left white). "[[Malefic Blue-Eyes White Dragon]]" and "[[Malefic Red-Eyes Black Dragon]]" are the only "Malefic" monsters whose right eye is not covered by their masks.
===Origin===
Most of the monsters in this archetype are corrupted versions of other monsters (most of which are counterparts of well-known [[Dragon]]-Typess). The remaining three monsters look similar, but have no known non-Malefic counterparts.
