Trap monsters can provide good tribute fodder when summoning your Monarchs.
Statue of Anguish Pattern | Continuous Spell |
Solemn Odion Roaming Event Ranked Rewards [UR] | |
Special Summon this card as an Effect Monster (Rock-Type/EARTH/Level 7/ATK 0/DEF 2500). (This card is also still a Trap Card.) If Summoned this way, this card cannot be targeted by an opponent's card effects while you control another Trap Card that is a monster. If a card is Special Summoned from your Spell & Trap Zone to the Monster Zone while this card is a monster: You can target 1 card on the field; destroy it. |
Anguish Pattern has a good DEF stat when summoned as a monster. Combined with its inherent protection effect this makes it quite an annoying monster to get rid of with the right setup. It also provides good field control when running a Deck with a ton of Trap monsters, so it's not all about defense.
Tiki Soul | Continuous Trap |
Card Trader [UR] | |
Special Summon this card as an Effect Monster (Rock-Type/LIGHT/Level 4/ATK 1000/DEF 1800). (This card is also still a Trap Card.) While this card is an Effect Monster, if another Trap Card you control that is a monster would be destroyed by your opponent's card (either by battle or by card effect) and sent to your Graveyard, you can Set it in the Spell & Trap Card Zone instead. |
Tiki Soul effectively recycles Trap monsters by putting them in the Spell/Trap zone instead of the Graveyard when destroyed. But realistically, Tiki Soul would protect your other Trap monsters by being the first monster the opponent would most likely target.
Quantum Cat | Continuous Trap |
Odion [SR] | |
Activate this card by declaring 1 Monster Type and 1 Attribute; Special Summon this card as a Normal Monster (Level 4/ATK 0/DEF 2200) with that Type and Attribute. (This card is also still a Trap Card.) |
Basically a defensive wall, Quantum Cat has relatively high DEF compared to other Trap monsters.
Escalation of the Monarchs | Continuous Trap |
Crusaders Battleground [SR] | |
Once per turn, during your opponent's Main Phase or your opponent's Battle Phase, you can: Immediately after this effect resolves, Tribute Summon 1 monster. |
Escalation lets you Tribute Summon during the opponent's turn. Tribute Summon into Caius to surprise the opponent with a removal effect.
