ATK 2800 / DEF 1000
Primal Burst [UR]
You can Special Summon this card by removing from play any 2 Rock-Type monsters in your Graveyard. During your Standby Phase, remove from play 1 Rock-Type monster in your Graveyard, or send this card to the Graveyard. Halve the ATK and DEF of any monster that battles with this card.

Weathering Soldier & Shell Knight with Miracle Rupture

Both Monsters sharing a similar effect which is search effect for adding Fossil Fusion or 1 card that specifically lists "Fossil Fusion" in its text except themselves when they sent to the graveyard by card effect.

Combo this card with Miracle Rupture will helps you setup Fossil Fusion monster on board faster.

Weathering Soldier
Weathering Soldier
EARTH Rock ★4
ATK 2000 / DEF 1200
Shining Sunrise [UR]
If this card is destroyed by battle or sent to the GY by a card effect: You can add 1 "Fossil Fusion", or 1 card that specifically lists "Fossil Fusion" in its text except "Weathering Soldier", from your Deck to your hand. You can only use this effect of "Weathering Soldier" once per turn. Once per turn, during your End Phase: This card loses 600 ATK.

A Level 4 with 2000 ATK stats but will loses 600 ATK during each End Phase of yours which is not good for summoning in Attack Position. If you can't manage to get Miracle Rupture in your hand, you can set Weathering Soldier on your field, and add Fossil Fusion or Shell Knight after it is getting destroyed by battle.

Shell Knight
Shell Knight
EARTH Rock
ATK 0 / DEF 2000
Fossil Dragon Resurrects! Jim "Crocodile" Cook Unlock Event [SR]
When this card is Normal Summoned: You can change this card to Defense Position, and if you do, inflict 250 damage to your opponent. If this card is destroyed by battle or sent to the GY by a card effect: You can add 1 Level 8 Rock monster from your Deck to your hand, or, if "Fossil Fusion" is in your GY, you can Special Summon it instead, also, in either case, you cannot activate cards, or the effects of cards, with the same name as that card for the rest of this turn. You can only use this effect of "Shell Knight" once per turn.

First effect is not very helpful due to the small amount of effect damage dealing. Shell Knight will allows you to search out Granmarg the Mega Monarch (in this Deck case) for Golem Hole Skill Activation Cost.

Miracle Rupture
Miracle Rupture
Normal Spell
Shining Sunrise [SR]
Send 1 Level 4 or lower Rock monster from your Deck to the GY, then, if "Fossil Fusion" is in your GY, draw 1 card. You can only activate 1 "Miracle Rupture" per turn.

Similars to Foolish Burial's effect that allows you for Graveyard Setup by sending Rock monsters for Fusion Summoning Fossil Fusion Monsters. If there is "Fossil Fusion" is in your Graveyard, you will get extra 1 Card Draw.

Revival Golem

EARTH Rock ★4
ATK 100 / DEF 2100
Guardians of Rock [R]
The effect of "Revival Golem" can only be used once per turn. When this card is sent from your Deck to the Graveyard: Activate 1 of these effects.
● Special Summon this card from the Graveyard.
● Add this card from the Graveyard to your hand.

Special Summon Revival Golem when it is milled by Neos Fusion Effect. This is generally better than putting it in your hand because monsters on the field are just more useful to this Deck. You can use it as Xyz material.

Wightprincess

Energy of Gigarays [R]
This card’s name becomes "Skull Servant" while it is in the Graveyard. If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can send 1 "Wightprince" from your Deck to the Graveyard.

Can be used during either players' turn makes this card more useful to prevent OTK from your opponent by reducing their ATK regarding to their own Level/Rank.

Fossil Fusion

Fossil Fusion
Fossil Fusion
Normal Spell
Shining Sunrise [R]
Fusion Summon 1 "Fossil" Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck, by banishing Fusion Materials listed on it from either player's GY, and if you banished monsters from both GYs, neither player can target the Summoned monster with monster effects. If a face-up "Fossil" Fusion Monster(s) you control is destroyed by battle or card effect, while this card is in your GY: You can add this card to your hand. You can only use this effect of "Fossil Fusion" once per turn.

Fossil Version of Invocation which you can banish monsters from your field and/or either player’s Graveyard as fusion material which can deals with Burning Abyss. The Fusion monsters will have target immunization if it is fusion summoned by banished from both players' Graveyards.

You can recycle this card from your hand if your Face-Up "Fossil" monster is being destroyed by battle or card effect.

Neos Fusion Engine

Brave Neos is simply an easy to summon beater. The first effect is only marginally helpful, letting Brave Neos start with 2600 because Neos will be in the graveyard. Essentially puts Brave Neos on the field for free if all your materials came from the Deck. The best part is milling the fusion material, which is a somewhat versatile graveyard setup.

Elemental HERO Brave Neos

Rock Bombardment

Rock Bombardment
Rock Bombardment
Normal Trap
Guardians of Rock [R]
Send 1 Rock-Type monster from your Deck to the Graveyard; inflict 500 damage to your opponent.

The burn damage is a nice bonus, but the main reason we run Rock Bombardment is to mill Rock monsters especially Weathering Soldier for Fossil Fusion card searching.

No Skull Bone? Atleast with Skull Bone you can use a lvl4, go Skull Bone, Tome Stream it to either Wagon or Knight for either backrow or front row pop respectively, then banish Skull Bone to grab your second Time Stream to go into the lvl8s.

This is a really bad skill choice here. You're playing 1 level 8 monster in a 24 card deck. And sometimes you'd prefer to tribute summon it instead of using it for the skill.

Just use destiny draw instead. Or any other generic skill.

the level 8 is searchable tho

well, it's a meme deck.
It's obsolete technology for duel links meta.
Metalfoes is a much better fusion deck
