The first three "Meklord Emperors" have been released as stand-alone cards, albeit with their whole form in a single card instead of 5. They retain their [[Synchro Monster|Synchro]] stealing [[Card effect|effect]], and "Wisel" and "Skiel" are the only [[Monster Card|monsters]] that can [[attack]] whilst on the field. "Granel", though, still allows other monsters to attack. However, instead of having to [[destroy]] a Core monster, they are Summoned when ''any'' monster is destroyed by a card effect, making them highly splashable. Additionally, "Wisel" has the ability to negate [[Spell Card]]s, "Granel" can [[Special Summon]] the Synchro Monsters [[equip]]ped by its effect and "Skiel" is able to attack [[Direct attack|directly]] by [[send]]ing an equipped monster to the [[Graveyard]]. "Meklord Astro Mekanikle", "Meklord Emperor Wisel" and "Meklord Emperor Granel" are ''[[V Jump promotional cards|V Jump Promotional Card]]''. 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 Playing 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.
