The "[[Meklord Army]]", weaker incarnations of the "Meklord Emperors" used by [[Aporia]], as well as "[[Meklord Astro Dragon Asterisk]]", and other support cards for this archetype were released in ''[[Extreme Victory]]'', alongisde "Meklord Emperor Skiel" in the set's TCG release. |
| − | == | + | == Play Style == |
| − | + | This archetype focuses on taking advantage of the opponent's [[Synchro Monster]]s and destroying other monsters you [[control]] in order to [[Special Summon]] the "Meklord Emperors". These monsters are compatible with virtually any [[Main Deck|Deck]] and can stand alone despite the lack of Synchro Monsters on the field. The low [[Level]]s of "[[Meklord Emperor]]s" allow them to work around Level restricting Spell and [[Trap Card]]s. Since the release of ''[[Extreme Victory]]'' there are a number of support cards that will help you bring out your "Meklord Emperors", such as "[[Mektimed Blast]]". You should keep many "[[Meklord Army]]" cards in your deck. Use cards such as "[[Gold Sarcophagus]] to add "Meklord Emperors" to your hand. Keep a "[[Pot of Avarice]]" in handy to reload more "Meklord" monsters into your deck. | |

| − | + | ==Weaknesses == | |
| − | + | A "Meklord" Deck is suited to combat [[Synchro Monster]]s and thus does not work well against players who do not depend on Synchro Monsters. | |
| − | + | ||
| − | + | A Meklord Emperor Deck can have problems when against "[[Metaion, the Timelord]]" (or some of the other [[Timelord]]s), because of some of their effects. | |
| − | + | ||
| − | + | [[Machine]]-[[Type]] mass-removal cards such as "[[System Down]]", "[[Magnetic Mosquito]]" and "[[Acid Rain]]" can also be utilized against these monsters; sending them back to their owner's hand is the best way to shut down the "Meklords". | |
| + | |||
| + | Since all Meklord monster are Machine-Type, they will be used as [[Fusion Material Monsters]] along with [[Cyber Dragon]] to Summon [[Chimeratech Fortress Dragon]] by [[Contact Fusion]] | ||
