Subterror: deck recipe [Nov 25]

These are the high-level monsters that will be summoned with Subterror Nemesis Warrior. You can also special summon these by normal summoning Flip Frog and activating it to flip it down.

Umastryx banishes your opponent's monster, while Stygokraken destroys set cards. Stygokraken may be the safe choice in many cases since it can destroy your opponent's backrow and your opponent's monster if you have Book of Moon, but it has lower base ATK compared to Umastryx.

Both of these have 4000 ATK or more if used with Subterror Final Battle, allowing the deck to have an OTK potential with just 1 direct attack.

Normal Summon Subterror Nemesis Warrior and activate your Skill by returning a card from your hand to the Deck. During your opponent’s Standby Phase (Toggle Button ON), activate Subterror Nemesis Warrior’s effect, send Subterror Behemoth Umastryx or Subterror Behemoth Stygokraken from your Deck to the Graveyard and Tribute Subterror Nemesis Warrior and another monster to Special Summon in face-up or face-down Defense Position the “Subterror Behemoth” that was sent to the Graveyard.

If you activate the Skill Masked Tribute you cannot Normal or Special Summon monsters for the rest of the turn, so you will have to wait for your opponent’s turn to Summon a “Subterror Behemoth”. If there’s a Lava Golem or a Parasite Paracide on your side of the field that you want to get rid of, you can Tribute it via Subterror Nemesis Warrior’s effect to Summon Subterror Behemoth Speleogeist, Umastryx or Stygokraken.

If a “Subterror Behemoth” monster is flipped face-up, you can Special Summon Subterror Nemesis Warrior from your Graveyard. Even if you have multiple copies of Subterror Nemesis Warrior in your Graveyard, you can only use this effect once per turn.

What if I don’t open with Subterror Nemesis Warrior? You can still Summon your “Subterror Behemoth” monsters by Normal Summoning Flip Flop Frog and changing it to face-down Defense Position via its own effect. When a monster you control is flipped face-down, if you control no face-up monsters, you can Special Summon Subterror Behemoth Umastryx, Stygokraken or Speleogeist from your hand.

Your “Subterror Behemoth” monsters have the ability to flip themselves face-down as well, so, if you control one, you can Special Summon another one from your hand. You cannot Special Summon multiple “Subterror Behemoth” monsters at once because their effect has to be activated in response to your monster being flipped face-down

When you activate Subterror Final Battle, you can choose to apply 1 of 4 different effects and then Set it instead of sending it to the Graveyard.

• You can change 1 Set "Subterror" monster on the field to face-up Attack or Defense Position.

Use this effect to flip your “Subterror Behemoth” monsters and trigger their effects. If your opponent locks one of your “Subterror” monsters in face-down Defense Position with Floodgate Trap Hole, you can use Subterror Final Battle to change it to face-up Attack Position.

• You can change 1 face-up "Subterror" monster on the field to face-down Defense Position.

• The ATK and DEF of 1 "Subterror" monster on the field become equal to its combined original ATK and DEF until the end of this turn.

Both Subterror Behemoth Umastryx and Stygokraken definitely lack when it comes to ATK, especially if you compare them to monsters like Blue-Eyes White Dragon and Ancient Gear Reactor Dragon, but, thanks to Subterror Final Battle, you can flip the situation around.

• This turn, activated effects of "Subterror" cards cannot be negated.

It's useful to stop enemy plays or dodge certain targeted effects, but you can also use it on your own Nemesis Warrior if you want to special summon the high-level Subterrors from your hand.

If your opponent uses something like Forbidden Chalice or Fiendish Chain on Nemesis Warrior when you're trying to bring out a Subterror from the deck, you can chain Book of Moon to avoid your opponent's card.

This also lets you destroy your opponent's monster if you have Stygokraken.

Compared to Final Battle, this can only flip a monster to face-up. If you have a Behemoth or Flip Frog that's face-up at the start of your turn, you can activate the monster effect to flip it down, then use World Legacy Pawn to flip it up again to activate their main effect.

Summonable with 2 Umastryx on the field. Useful for its card removal and for stalling.

Special summonable with 2 Stygokraken. Xyz into this as a follow-up after using Stygokraken's effect to destroy your opponent's backrow, then destroy their monster with Volcasaurus. After that, you can rank up into Gaia Dragon to attack.

Summonable with 2 Umastryx or ranking up from Volcasaurus. Having this as an option lets you attack after using Volcasaurus' effect, or just to have a piercing effect so you can deal with defensive decks.

1 for 1 removal. If you have a face-down Behemoth on the field, you can use 2 Nemesis Warrior to Xyz into Diamond Dire Wolf to destroy a card, then special summon Nemesis Warrior from the grave by flipping your behemoth face-up.

Good against Xyz monsters since it will remove their materials, or just any situation where your opponent only has 1 monster. Temporarily bypassing your opponent's monster can help with OTK with Final Battle's ATK boost.

Useful against certain decks that uses same name monsters like Harpies or Cyber Dragons. It has high value if those kinds of decks are common in the meta.

Crumble Logos is your only Rank-2 Xyz to be summoned by using two Flip Frogs as material. Negating the effect of any face-up card is useful for shutting off problematic effects. And your opponent also won't be able to activate another copy of the negated card. This can be a useful counter against Decks such as Dark Magician and The Weather.

• Ideally, you should shuffle back into the Deck the “Subterror Behemoth” monster you intend to send to the Graveyard and Special Summon via Subterror Nemesis Warrior’s effect.

Helps with repairing cards in your hand, and potential stalling since it has decent DEF for a level 4 monster.

Works similarly to Flip Flop Frog with slightly higher stats, but its effect targets cards, while Flip Flop Frog is non-targeting.

Can flip itself down if you need to special summon a Behemoth from your hand. Together with Book of Moon, you can flip your opponent's monster and also your own so you can still special summon Behemoths from your hand.

Face-down monsters count towards Needle Ceiling's effect activation requirement but are not destroyed. Since Subterror monsters are face-down most of the time, Needle Ceiling essentially only wipes out your enemy's monsters.
