Infernoid rage! Grab the latest Infernoid cards inside Secrets of Eternity, available now!

Secrets of Eternity is home to the Infernoids, terrifying mechanical Fiend-Type monsters that cannibalize each other, fighting to survive and to annihilate your foes!

Infernoids cannot be Summoned by conventional means. They can’t be Normal Summoned, only Special Summoned, and to do that, you need to banish other Infernoids from your hand or Graveyard. Levels 1–4 Infernoids require you to banish one other Infernoid. For Levels 5–8, you banish two. And for the mighty Level 10 Infernoid Onuncu, you banish three. All of the Level 5 and higher Infernoids also have the ability to be Summoned from the hand or Graveyard. But the catch for never having to spend your Normal Summon on an Infernoid is that they can’t all coexist together. If the total Levels/Ranks of all the Effect Monsters you control is 8 or more, you can’t play any more Infernoids until you go back under the limit.

The Infernoid strategy can be simply described as “scorched earth.” Leave nothing on your opponent’s field or in their Graveyard. Infernoid Patrulea destroys Spell and Trap Cards, Infernoid Antra kicks cards back to the hand, and Infernoid Harmadik destroys monsters. And each of them can be Tributed during your opponent’s turn to banish something from your opponent’s Graveyard, whereupon they become food for the next wave of Infernoids when your turn rolls around. It also makes room for your new Infernoids as well, since the total Levels/Ranks of the monsters you control will drop.

To get as many Infernoids into the Graveyard as fast as you can, including the ones that can be Summoned back from the Graveyard, try Kuribandit from Dragons of Legend . Kuribandit excavates the top five cards of your Deck and sends all of the monsters to the Graveyard while letting you add a Spell or Trap Card to your hand. There are a lot of powerful Spell and Trap Cards available to Infernoid Decks, one of which can even be used while in the Graveyard, and the high Level Infernoids can all be Special Summoned from the Graveyard, so you usually get to use all 5 of the cards Kuribandit excavates!

You can try out Infernoids right now! Secrets of Eternity is in stores now.
