'''Reptile''' known as '''Reptile Tribe''' in the [[OCG]], monsters were once one of the most overlooked and undersupported types, their only real use previously being [[Tribute]] fodder for "[[Ultra Evolution Pill]]". However, with the release of the "[[Alien]]" and "[[Venom]]" [[archetype]]s, Reptiles have come into their own as a [[Type]] that focuses on controlling the opponent with the use of [[Counter]]s. Many Reptiles focus upon weakening the opponent instead of strengthening themselves, often leaving the opponent powerless. Because of this, Reptile-based decks and archetypes focus on tactics that reward patience and strategy over simplicity and brute force. The most brutal example of this is found in "[[Vennominaga the Deity of Poisonous Snakes]]", which, while difficult to get onto the field, brought near-invincibility as well as one of the game's few [[Automatic Win]] conditions.
Later on, the "[[Reptilianne]]" archetype was introduced, taking a new spin on the control concept by replacing Counters with various effects that drop opposing monsters straight to 0 ATK, then using other effects to remove or even take control of those monsters.
