Lists

"Verz" is a set of DARK-Attribute monsters which is introduced in Duel Terminal - Sacred Star Knights!!. Their most significant feature is that their ATK/DEF end with 50.

Some of the monsters in this archetype are DARK counterparts of other Duel Terminal-released monsters, apparently corrupted by the virus of the Steelswarm or Inverz Archetype, which was released from "Steelswarm Cell" as shown in the artwork of "Invasive Violating Infection". A good example is the Xyz monster "Verz Bahamut", which is the counterpart of "Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier".

The strategy of the "Verz" seems to be similar to the "Steelswarm", taking field presence with powerful beatsticks backed up by removal effects, as well as punishing your opponent for Special Summoning mid-to-high-Level monsters, but with the added twist of taking control of your opponent's monsters.

Trivia

Evidently, this archetype share a close name with "Steelswarm" (Inverz, インヴェルズ), an archetype from the previous Duel Terminal story arc. They're both also DARK-Attribute monsters. Furthermore, the "Inverz" could be seen as a shortened version of "Insect Verz" or "Insectoid Verz", meaning the "Verz" virus might have come long before the "Steelswarm" did, and the "Steelswarms" are a heavily-infected species of creature.
