Playing Style

The main strategy of the archetype is to swarm the field with as many "Skyfang Brigade" monsters as possible, in order to trigger their effects, that range from card destruction to LP recovery.

• The Level 4 or lower "Skyfang Brigade" monsters have an Ignition Effect that allows the player to Special Summon a "Skyfang Brigade" monster from their hand during their Main Phase, plus an additional Trigger Effect that activates if a "Skyfang Brigade" monster is Special Summoned while that monster is face-up on the field.
