Notes & Combos
Making King of the Feral Imps without expending Water Lily is almost full combo, so Aratama is an additional starter for the deck. It also adds some interesting lines that are more recursive when you open them plus one of Nunu or Nauya.
I honestly wish I could trim the list down. All of the non-engine feels required to play in MD's format as you need as many answers to Maxx "C" and Shifter as possible as being Maxx "C"'d on Nunu's effect to summon is frequently game ending.
Aramatama 1-card: (Regulus, a Rank 8, Dark Knight Lancer)
- Normal Aratama
- Use the effect of Aratama to search Sakitama
- Use Sakitama's extra normal to summon it
- Make King of the Feral Imps.
- Search Nauya with King of the Feral Imps
- Use Nauya's effect to send itself and Keurse to the GY
- Use Keurse's effect tributing KOFI to the GY and summon itself.
- Summon Nauya with Keurse's effect
- Nauya search Ogdoadic Water Lily
- Water Lily send Nunu
- Special Nunu by its own effect
- Overlay for a second King of the Feral Imps
- King of the Feral Imps search Therion "Empress" Alasia
- Use the effect of Alasia to summon itself
- Overlay Alasia and Keurse to summon Gigantic "Champion" Sargas
- Use Sargas to search Therion "Lily" Borea
- Overlay King of the Feral Imps into XYZ Armor Fortress
- Use XYZ Armor Fortress to search Armored XYZ and Full Armored XYZ
- Trigger Sargas to bounce or destroy itself by its own effect. You can bounce it if you want the ability to make it again the following turn, or sometimes it's useful just to have in GY as a target for Armored XYZ. I usually destroy it.
- Therion "Lily" Borea target Therion "Empress" Alasia to summon
- Lily send Alasia to search Discolosseum
- Discolosseum search Therion "King" Regulus
- Regulus target Alasia to summon
- Regulus use the effect of Alasia to summon it from ST, discarding Full Armor XYZ.
- Add back Full Armored XYZ with Dark Knight Lancer and set it OR Overlay the Lily and Alasia for a Rank 8 of choice.
You can pretty much do the same thing in most hands from the point of getting the King of the Feral Imps to resolve but if you can keep another body you should link Sargas into I:P rather than sending it by its own effect.

The oldest replay is with last month's build but is a good example of how people will misplace interaction against the deck due to it being uncommon.

This deck is so fun! I've watched your replays, I'm just confused on how to use lily's effect to search as when she is equipped with the reptile therion the only effect it allows me to activate is the effect to ss alasia

Haha I'm so dumb xD I thought I had added discoloseum already but turns out I forgot to add it xD this list is really awesome! I was playing an invoked lair of darkness version with super poly but I found it to be too bricky....this version is alot more consistent and you can end on some real solid boards!! Plus being able to turn Kofi into a rank 7 monster just makes it so much better!

Glad you like it! The Horus cards help a lot but I'm a little burned out at the second so I haven't grinded the gems (or rank) for a bit.

Thankfully I'm low ranks as I've not played on my reptile profile in a while but this will allow me some time to get used to this build! Honestly it's amazing how you can turn your boards out with some weird hands lol really fun to play and people literally have no clue what ogdoadic's are about ! Thank you for sharing the list!

as a reptile enthusiast this list is kinda genius, armor XyZ completely fixes the inconsistency problems of running the therion package with it's +2 and recursion of card advantage meaning it doesn't hurt like crazy to run it and gives you strong follow up for next turn, really good job bro :3 i've swapped out dingirsu for goddess and unicorn for SP.
