"'''Infernity''' " (インフェルニティ ''Inferuniti''), a portmanteau of the words "Infernal" and "Infinity", are all is an [[DARK]] monster cards whose effects activate when a player has no cards in the [[handarchetype]]. This archetype's artwork owes much to stereotypical depictions of the "wild west," with cards such as "[[Infernity ArchfiendDARK]]", "[[Infernity Necromancer]]", and "[[Infernity Mirage]]" alluding to the native Americans, while cards like "[[Infernity Avenger]]", "[[Infernity Randomizer]]", and "[[Infernity Launcher]]" (whose original Japanese name was "Infernity Gun") relate to the cowboys. However, more recent "Infernity" Monster Card|monsters like "[[Infernity Knight]]," "[[Infernity General]]," and "[[Infernity Archer]]" bear strong medieval overtones. This [[archetype]] was used by [[Kalin Kessler]] in ''the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]''.In episodes 33, 34, and 35 in the English version of |''Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's'', the archetype was referred to as '''Infernalty'''. The first "Infernity" cards were released as promotional cards in ''anime]] and [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's World Championship 2009: Stardust Accelerator(manga)|Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Stardust Acceleratormanga]]'': ". They consist of monsters whose effects activate when a player has no cards in [[Infernity Archfiendhand]]", "[[Infernity Dwarf]]", and "[[Infernity Guardian]]". "[[Infernity Destroyer]]" was released In episodes 33 - 35 in the dub of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's Stardust Accelerator - World Championship 2009 Game Guide]]'' in Japan, the archetype was referred to as "'''Infernalty'''".== Appearance ==The first "Infernity" card released in has two primary themes within their artworks; members originating from the anime have a booster pack was more Wild West-inspired aesthetic, as seen with "[[Infernity BeastAvenger]]" in and "[[Ancient ProphecyInfernity Randomizer]]. Two additional "Infernity" cards soon followed with for cowboys and the release likes of [[Stardust Overdrive]]: "[[Infernity NecromancerArchfiend]]" and the first "Infernity" Trap Card "[[Infernity ForceMirage]]"for Native Americans. With Meanwhile, the release of [[The Shining Darkness]], fifteen manga members much more cards were added closely resemble chess pieces akin to the early "Infernity" archetype for further support. [[The Shining DarknessArchfiend]] also included the "Infernity" Synchro Monster monsters, namely "[[Infernity Doom DragonPatriarch]]," and ''[[Photon Shockwave]]'' introduced "[[Infernity Knight]]". Recently, the "Infernity" Deck has gotten some big boosts. The first Fire is "[[Leviair also a commonality shared by members of the Sea Dragon]]", which can be made with two "Infernity Necromancer"s. "[[Hundred-Eyes Dragon]]" can banish "Infernity Mirage" with its effect, archetype and "Leviair the Sea Dragon" can then revive the "Infernity Mirage," as its Special Summon restriction only applies to the Graveyard, to Synchro Summon another monster and get an "Infernity Archfiend" search. Another handy Xyz monster is "[[Lavalval Chain]]"their name implies, are generally made with "[[Summoner Monk]]". Its effect can place "[[Infernity Archfiend]]" on top of your deck, which immediately Special Summons it on the following turn if your hand is otherwise empty. While it is on the weaker side demonic in terms of ATK and DEF, if "[[Lavalval Chain]]" manages to survive into a second turn turn, it can use its other effect to set up your Graveyard with whatever "[[Infernity Archfiend]]" searched outappearance. == Etymology ==Lastly, "[[Void Ogre Dragon]]Infernity" is a welcome addition to portmanteau of the words "InfernityInfernal/Inferno" arsenal of Level 8 Synchro monsters, having great synergy with the deck and able to fend off threats such as "[[Dark Hole]]" and Infinity"[[Heavy Storm]]."

==Infernity Lightsworn=Official Deck=== This deck focuses on using the milling effects of Lightsworn monsters to get the monsters you need in the graveyard, like [[Infernity Archfiend]], [[Infernity Necromancer]] and [[{{Decklist|Reasoning-Gate Infernity Avenger]]<ref>https://ygorganization. Also, getting [[Stygian Street Patrol]] in the graveyard does good, especially with the searching com/ocg-duelist-festival-2016-obelisk-force-deck-recipes/</ref>|effect of monsters =* [[Infernity ArchfiendHeiress]]. The advantage of this deck is that you don't need the sending effects of [[Armageddon Knight]] and * [[Dark Grepher]], as the * [[LightswornInfernity Archer]] monsters take care of it. Another plus with this deck is that since * [[InfernityArchfiend]] monsters are DARK and [[Lightsworn]] monsters are LIGHT, there is room for chaos monsters, like [[Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning]] and [[Chaos Sorcerer]]. == Recommended Cards == === Monsters ===x3* [[Infernity ArchfiendPatriarch]]* [[Infernity AvengerGeneral]]* [[Infernity NecromancerMirage]]x3* [[Infernity MirageNecromancer]]x3

Advantages Cards like using Lavalval Chain with "[[Lyla, Lightsworn SorceressAsh Blossom & Joyous Spring]] " and "[[Infernity ArchfiendEffect Veiler]], or another Level 4 [[Lightsworn]] monster to send [[Stygian Street Patrol]] to " can also harm the graveyard, or put [[Infernity Archfiend]] to Deck significantly as shutting down the top effects of the deck"Archfiend" can be a death sentence. Also, if using Cards like "[[Effect VeilerDimensional Fissure]] " will also stop it dead in your deckits tracks. Another, arguably greater flaw is the Deck's reliance on an explosive start which can quickly drain resources and you get to summon make it with [[Infernity Archfiend]] and [[Infernity Necromancer]] on the field, then [[Chaos Goddess]] is a very good card vulnerable if unable to run, as it can bring back go in for a DARK Synchro monster in your graveyard back to the field, like [[Hundred Eyes Dragon]], [[Void Ogre Dragon]] or [[Infernity Doom Dragon]]quick kill.
== Trivia ==
* In The Deck has great symbolism with its user in the Japanese version of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Danime, 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 [[Kalin Kessler|Kalin]] says '''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 can hear him mispronouncing will likely lose very quickly if you draw a bad hand and are unable to empty it '''Infinity'''fast enough, unless you topdeck an extremely lucky card such as "Infernity Archfiend". * In [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's - Episode 054|Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's episode 54]] and [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's - Episode 055|Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's episode 55]] the word '''Infernity''' was used instead of '''Infernality''' (ep. 33-35). For examplemanga, when Kalin played sometimes refers to his monsters as "Infernality FiendPurgatory" in [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's - Episode 033|episode 33]], he then later called it by its ''[[TCG]]'' name when Dueled Yusei again (ep. 54-55). * The new monsters rather than "Infernity" cards used in the [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's (manga)|manga]] have a Medieval theme.
* 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]]-Attribute monsters and their artwork generally depicts them in some fiery locationor 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 "[[Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier]]" pre-errata.** During the [[Xyz Monster|Xyz era]], the Deck was able to abuse both "[[Leviair the Sea Dragon]]" and "[[Lavalval Chain]]" to easily keep "Hundred Eyes Dragon" in a deadly state, even copying the effects of "Mirage" to keep the game in their favor.** During the [[Pendulum Monster|Pendulum era]] the archetype favored using a combination of "[[Performapal Skullcrobat Joker]]", "[[Performapal Monkeyboard|Monekyboard]]" and "[[Performapal Lizardraw|Lizardaw]]" to easily abuse [[Pendulum Summon]]ing, short-lived as it was.** When [[Link Monster]]s were introduced, "Infernity" was almost immediately using a combination of "[[Firewall Dragon]]", "[[Summon Sorceress]]" and "[[Knightmare Goblin]]" to rise up once again prior to the cards in question being banned.== References ==<references />{{Archetype Archseries navbox}}{{Archseries navbox (anime)}}{{Archseries navbox (manga)}}{{Archseries navbox (Duel Links)}}[[Category:TCG and OCG archetypes]]
