Then, you can use the effect of “Vernusylph in Full Bloom” to increase the ATK of all monsters on your field, or the effect of “Vera the Vernusylph Goddess” to negate monster effects activated by your opponent at the time of their resolution.

    The March of the Vanguards of Destruction

    “Many “Infernoid” monsters require other “Infernoid” monsters to be banished while the sum of Levels/Ranks of all Effect ‘monsters on your field is less than 8 to be Special Summoned. Utilize “Void” Spell and Trap Cards and aim to Special Summon “Infernoid” monsters. When the sum of Levels/Ranks of all Effect Monsters on your field is over 9, utilize your Link Monsters. Since Link Monsters do not have Levels/Ranks, they will be useful in preparing the conditions to Special Summon “Infernoid” monsters.

    “Awakening of the Possessed” monsters can Special Summon from the hand or Deck by sending a monster with the Attribute that corresponds with the Spellcaster-Type monster on your field.
