The Deck revolves around abusing the effects of "[[W Nebula Meteorite]]". Opening with with "[[Worm Xex]]" or "[[Worm Cartaros]]" along with this card can yield huge card advantage early on to make up for the Deck's relatively slow play. If you Summon "[[Worm Yagan]]" along with "Xex", you can activate "Nebula" on your opponent's turn, using "Yagan" to return one of their monsters to their hand. During the End Phase, you get to draw 1 card for each Reptile monster flipped face down by "Nebula" and can Special Summon a Level 7 or higher LIGHT Monster (notably "[[Worm King]]", "[[Worm Queen]]", or "[[Worm Victory]]").
===={{Decklist|Recommended cards====In order to get the most out of a Worm<!-based Deck, cards that protect your weak monsters from destruction during battle are handy-This is not an exact Decklist. Please do not add multiples or staples. "[[Hieracosphinx]]" and "[[A Feint Plan]]" will protect your face-down Worms from your opponent's attacks.->
Since all of these "Worms" are |effect monsters =* [[LIGHTWorm Cartaros]]* [[Worm Dimikles]]* [[Worm King]]* [[Worm Prince]]* [[Worm Queen]], "* [[HonestWorm Tentacles]]" and "* [[Shining AngelWorm Xex]]" can help with weaker "Worms", such as "* [[Worm Yagan]]" or "* [[Worm VictoryEvil Dragon Ananta]]* [[Honest]]* [[Kagetokage]]* [[Lion Alligator]]".
Since all of these "Worms" are |fusion monsters =* [[Reptile]]s, "[[Offering to the Snake Deity]]" is an excellent card which can be used to destroy two of your opponent's cards by destroying one of your "Worms". "[[Solidarity]]" and "[[Viper's Rebirth]]" are also useful, although you won't be able to use non-Reptile Monster Cards (such as "[[Honest]]") for support. "[[Alien Brain]]" allows you to take control of an opponent's monster that destroyed one of your "Worms" by battle and change its type to Reptile, thereby making "Solidarity" even more valuable. "[[Evil Dragon Ananta]]" is another great card, and in the [[Traditional Format]] can be combined with "[[Return from the Different Dimension]]" for an [[OTK]]. "[[Viper's Rebirth]]" is a great card in a "Worm" Deck due to its ability to [[Special SummonZero]] any powerful Reptile-Type monster from your Graveyard; "[[Worm King]]" can Tribute itself to destroy any card on the field, and "[[Worm Queen]]" can Tribute itself to Special Summon another Level 8 or lower Reptile-Type "Worm" from your Deck, bypassing the negative effect of "Viper's Rebirth".
Cards that support |xyz monsters = * [[Flip monsterKing of the Feral Imps]]s are also useful. "[[Night Assailant]]" allows you to return a Flip monster from your Graveyard to your hand. "[[Soul Reversal]]"is particularly useful with "[[Worm Cartaros]]".
Cards that control the [[position]] of other cards on the field, such as "[[Book of Moon]]", "[[Curse of Fiend]]", "[[Book of Taiyou]]", "[[Book of Eclipse]]", "[[Desertapir]]", and "[[Desert Sunlight]]", are excellent for manipulating the opponent as well as early-triggering or re-using your own Flip effects. You can use "Book of Eclipse" to change all |link monsters to face-down Defense Position (including a "=* [[Worm VictorySubterror Behemoth Apparition]]"), then use the effect of "Curse of Fiend" during your [[Standby Phase]] to flip them all face-up (preventing the second effect of "Book of Eclipse" from applying), then the effect of "Worm Victory" activates and destroys all monsters on your opponent's side on the field. Using "[[Shifting Shadows]]" when your Worms are flipped face-down after being flipped face up is a great way to confuse your opponent. The "[[The Shallow Grave]]" allows you to Special Summon Flip monsters in face-down Defense Position from the Graveyard.
"|spells =* [[All-Out AttacksWorm Call]]" is a good card to use when you're focusing on Special Summoning your "Worms" face-down. They will have to attack, but if you use the effect * [[Book of "Eclipse]]* [[Worm ZeroBook of Moon]]" or "* [[Worm CallFuture Fusion]]" to set "* [[Worm VictorySolidarity]]", you can greatly speed up his or any Worm(if using only Reptiles)* [[Viper's Flip effects.Rebirth]] (if using only Reptiles)
"[[Genex Ally Birdman]]" is very useful, allowing the player to face-up "Worms" to their hand for re-use. More importantly, you can Synchro Summon with this card and any Level 4 "Worm" to make "[[Genex Ally Triforce]]". Once per turn, "Triforce" can Special Summon any LIGHT monster from your Graveyard in face-down Defense Position, making the Deck significantly stronger and faster by having access to the right "Worm" in the Graveyard for the current situation, like "[[Worm Apocalypse]]" or "[[Worm Victory]]". "[[Worm Xex]]" can send any of these monsters to the Graveyard and couples brilliantly with "Birdman". "[[Tour Guide From the Underworld]]" is a very versatile card in a "Worm" Deck. You can [[Xyz Summon]] "[[Leviair the Sea Dragon]]" to bring back your banished "[[Worm Yagan]]" or "[[Genex Ally Birdman]]". Also, because "Tour Guide" is DARK, you can use monsters like "[[Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning]]". Because "Worms" are often [[Normal Set]] instead of [[Normal Summon]]ed, "[[Future Visions]]" is useful to include as it helps slow the opponent down without affecting your "Worms". In the [[Traditional Format]], "[[Future Fusion]]" is ideal for use with "[[Worm Zero]]", due to allowing the player to send large numbers of "Worms" from the Deck to the Graveyard for its Fusion Summon. It is also useful to include "[[Gold Sarcophagus]]" to search for "Future Fusion". {{Decklist|Recommended cards|effect monsters = *[[Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning]]*[[Desertapir]]*[[Evil Dragon Ananta]]*[[Hieracosphinx]]*[[Honest]]*[[Night Assailant]]*[[Tour Guide From the Underworld]]*[[Worm Cartaros]]*[[Worm Gulse]]*[[Worm Illidan]]*[[Worm King]]*[[Worm Noble]]*[[Worm Opera]]*[[Worm Prince]]*[[Worm Solid]]*[[Worm Tentacles]]*[[Worm Victory]]*[[Worm Warlord]]*[[Worm Queen]]*[[Worm Xex]]*[[Worm Yagan]]|fusion monsters = *[[Worm Zero]]|xyz monsters = *[[King of the Feral Imps]]*[[Leviair the Sea Dragon]]|spells = *[[Book of Eclipse]]*[[Book of Moon]]*[[Book of Taiyou]]*[[Curse of Fiend]]*[[Future Visions]]*[[Shifting Shadows]]*[[Solidarity]] (if using only Reptile-Type monsters)*[[Soul Reversal]]*[[The Shallow Grave]]*[[Viper's Rebirth]] (if using only Reptile-Type monsters)*[[Worm Call]]|traps = *[[A Feint Plan]]*[[Alien Brain]]*[[Desert Sunlight]]*[[Offering to the Snake Deity]]|tuner monsters = *[[Genex Ally BirdmanW Nebula Meteorite]]|synchro monsters = *[[Genex Ally TriforceWorld Legacy Puppet]]}}
