Notes & Combos

Very enjoyable deck, was a lot of fun playing this. I also played another variant of this during the climb with Fiendsmith and no Snake Rain which I do believe is better truthfully.

Fiendsmith gives you something to do under Droll and Snake Rain I think is a bit overrated in these Reptile piles. The realisation that Snake Rain doesn't even one card combo unless you run bad cards like Ogdoadic Zohah and it requires a discard... Yeah, it feels very win more to me and plays super hard into any interrupt.

Regardless this is still a super solid strategy with incredible resilience and grind. Also Amunessia & Nephiliabyss >>>> are the best payoffs.

I've played Ogdoadic before and have always been an Aron hater, there are some cool things he can do but he feels super win more to me. I'd rather have Amunessia's board control anyday and Nephiliabys is a crazy send off Water Lily since if you can get the bonus revive effect you can use Nephilabyss to reborn anything since you wont be Reptile locked. Such as, reborning Masquerena that you used to convert Daybreak tokens to link-climb.

As for extra deck, Beat Cop is a token friendly body you can use to bridge into A Bao A Qu functioning flexibly as an extender, interrupt or discard outlet incase you hard draw a big Ogdoadic. Cross Sheep is also a fantastic discard outlet with it's amazing ritual effect. Borreload Savage can be made with Reptilianne Coatl who is a level 4 tuner with no locks. You can search it off King of the Feral imps or use it as a Ogdoadic Water Lily send and reborn.

Ragnaraika Stag Sovreign barely came up, he's in there since this deck spams bodys like crazy so you can convert them into something. Safer choice is Barricadeborg Blocker as a generic link 2 in case you need a discard.
