Guerrilla Reptile Empire

[SunKistRebelution]

This archetype's central focus is the fact that its members are capable of being summoned in face-down attack position, enabling a level of secrecy/mystery that is in itself a nice defensive mechanism.

 

Additionally, I will be posting several recent archetype creations of mine today, all of which have a "Grand Deity:" monster as their sort-of premier card. This stems from an idea from a fanfic/maybe RP I recently had.
