Description "In Egyptian mythology, Apep (also spelled Apepi, and Aapep, or Apophis in Greek) was an evil demon, the deification of darkness and chaos (isfet in Egyptian), and thus opponent of light and Ma'at (order/truth), whose existence was believed from the Middle Kingdom onward."

The "Venom" archetype has been one of my favorite when relating to a Shadow Game, as the more Venom Counters are on monsters, the more ATK "Venom Swamp" drains from them. But this... this card would cement my want to play a "Venom" Deck competitively.

Why? Well, aside from the fact that it cannot be summoned with "Polymerization", it forges a link between itself and "Vennominon the King of Poisonous Snakes", since it gains ATK for every one of your banished Reptiles, so the more ATK "Vennominon" loses, the more ATK this card gains. Also, it holds a bond to "Venom Swamp" as well, since it can target a banished Reptile you own and make your opponent's monsters lose ATK equal to the ATK of that target. Finally, it can Special Summon "Vennominon the King of Poisonous Snakes" if destroyed by the opponent, and cause that monster to regain ATK it lost, or gain more ATK, depending on where it's summoned from.


I'm hoping to see more fan-made cards as excellent as this one, since this card could give "Venom" users a reason to continue using their Decks. Farewell for now, and as always, keep smiling, and keep dreaming.
