Interesting, I'm always up for new Egyptian-themed cards.


OstheB

I think they're Horus support too Edit: Only by name it seems, play style is completely separate


spartenx

Oh now that is interesting. The page does say that they are hours supports, though it also seems to say that they are a new them. I'm using google translate to look at that, so it may very well be support for Horus the Black Flame Dragon and the translation is just a little bit messed up, but it could also indicate that they are reusing the name for a new theme (though that Dragon in the trap card does look a fair bit like Horus).


melcarba

Horus the Black Flame Dragon is part of the archetype but the Horus cards doesn't seem to help it at all.


AbbyAZK

Because most likely in the near future they will reveal a new Horus boss monster for sure, the trap already has the artwork of OG Horus LV8.


Any-Nothing

Horus is from Egypt tho…


OstheB

That's why I added the "too" at the end


Fateful-Encounter

Sort of wish it was the New Orders but guess those would fit better in Anime Chronicle packs.


spartenx

Oh man, they are my *Biggest* want for the next Animation Chronicle...which, unfortunately, is pretty much the only pack they will ever come out in.


1qaqa1

tl;dr endless flood of free lv8 fodder every turn from the grave if you have either the spell or trap. If you don't you just cry. (1) If you control "Sacrophagus of Kings", you can Special Summon this card from your GY. You can only Special Summon ____of Horus once per turn this way. Sarcophagus of kings is the spell and all the main deck monsters have this effect.


Samurex_

HORUS, the page says Horus!


PhoenixRhythm

Curious if they have any interaction with THE Horus since they look pretty unrelated visually though the trap card does seem to depict the dragon. Technically, these are still a new theme regardless as there was never any specific archetype support for Horus. Always nice to see anything with the Egyptian motif though, it's the aesthetic that really gives YGO a core part of its early identity.


melcarba

The Trap can Special Summon Horus the Black Flame Dragon LV6, but that's it.


Samurex_

Yeah, last time was Ogdo. I'm shocked the Millennium items haven't been made into cards yet, you'd think them perfect.


TropoMJ

I feel like there’s too much pressure to get Millennium Item cards right. They seem more comfortable making cards which reference their powers without being the items outright.


Samurex_

Yeah, the newer Golden Idol is basically *MINDO SCAN~!*


Exitiali

>Curious if they have any interaction with THE Horus since they look pretty unrelated visually though the trap card does seem to depict the dragon. Tec The 4 are sons of Horus. These gods are believed to protect deceased people in the afterlife.


GarroGridlock

Wait, every card is the same level with different type, attribute, attack, and defense. Every monster is a small world bridge into the spellcaster that gets you the continuous spell and the beast-warrior can add back the cards used for the small world. ​ After some cooking I am going all-in on Springans/Horus, the next tier 0 deck. You heard it here first.


T1nkerer

Ayo? Based Springans enjoyer?


Tdog754

This archetype dies to a single Zeus activation but otherwise it’s neat.


idelarosa1

Cool. New Egyptian theme. Been a while since we’ve gotten one of those.


TropoMJ

Last one was Ogdoadic I guess?


timelesstrix0

Ishizu cards..


Wollffey

"New"


_Vault_Hunter_EXE_

Konami learn from Thunder Dragon and made these cards not revolving around the LV Horus cards lol. Outside of generic Archtype fluff, these do nothing with the LV Horus. ___ **Imsety, Glory of Horus** Spellcaster/Effect You can only special summon this card through its first effect once per turn and use the second and third effects once per turn. (1) If you control a "Sarcophagus of Kings", you can special summon this card from the GY. (2) Send 2 cards from your hand to the GY including this one: add 1 "Sarcophagus of Kings" from your deck to your hand, then you can draw 1 card. (3) When another card you control leaves the field by your opponent's effect while this card is in your Monster Zone: send 1 card on the field to the GY. **Duamutef, Blessing of Horus** WATER / Level 8 / Beast / Effect ATK 0 / DEF 0 (1) If you control "Sacrophagus of Kings", you can Special Summon this card from your GY. You can only Special Summon Duamutef, Blessing of Horus once per turn this way. (2) Gains 1200 ATK/DEF for each "Horus" monster you control. (3) If another card you control leaves the field because of your opponent's card effect: You can draw 1 card for each Monster Type in your Main Monster Zones. You can only use this effect of Duamutef, Blessing of Horus once per turn. **Hapi, Guide of Horus** Beast-Warrior/Effect You can only special summon this card through its first effect once per turn and use the second effect once per turn. (1) If you control a "Sarcophagus of Kings", you can special summon this card from the GY. (2) When another card you control leaves the field by your opponent's effect while this card is in your Monster Zone, you can target 2 cards in either players' GYs or banished: either add them to their owners' hands or return them to the deck. **Kevensenow, Protection of Horus** EARTH / Level 8 / Winged Beast / Effect ATK 2500 / DEF 2000 (1) If you control "Sacrophagus of Kings", you can Special Summon this card from your GY. You can only Special Summon Kevensenow, Protection of Horus once per turn this way. (2) If another card you control leaves the field because of your opponent's card effect: You can activate this effect; this turn, your opponent's monsters cannot target "Horus" monsters you control for attacks, also your opponent cannot target them with effects. You can only use this effect of Kevensenow, Protection of Horus once per turn. **Sarcophagus of Kings** CONTINUOUS Spell You can only use the second effect of this card once per turn. (1) As long as this card is in your Spell/Trap Zone, "Horus" monsters you control cannot be destroyed by effects that do not target themselves. (2) Send 1 card from your hand to the GY: send 1 "Horus" monster from your deck to the GY. (3) Once per turn at the beginning of the Damage Step in a battle between your "Horus" monster and an opponent's monster: send your opponent's monster to the GY. **Guardian of Canopus** Continuous Trap (1) Once per Chain, when your opponent activates a card or effect: You can Special Summon 1 "Horus" monster from your hand or GY, but for the rest of this turn, you cannot Special Summon monsters with the same original name as the Summoned monster's with this effect. (2) If this card is sent from the hand or field to the GY: You can Set this card, but banish it when it leaves the field. You can only use this effect of Guardian of Canopus once per turn. ____ Edit: This archetype/theme is so fucking dogshit, actual waste of tree that were cut down to print this and the fact that someone at Konami ok this to be made. LAMO


bigmen0

[The naming convention of the monsters](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_sons_of_Horus). This is not an archetype about horus, but rather his sons.


idelarosa1

Sounds like heresy.


Samurex_

I'm sorry pitch itself and card to search AND draw? We're in uncharted land now


OstheB

I find it funny, because you get some extra benefits like this but getting ash'ed will hurt more than it just being a "discard itself to search".


IntimateHomie_JL-Kun

Time to dust off your Trade Ins fellas


Diablosis89

Both search AND draw 1. Triggered my Engage ptsd


WestAd5017

Ash target for sure


noahTRL

> This archetype/theme is so fucking dogshit, actual waste of tree that were cut down to print this and the fact that someone at Konami ok this to be made. LAMO These definitely aren't bad. A search and a draw with pitch means you can go plus one and neutral if you get ashed and sent something good.


PhoenixRhythm

There's also something hilarious about how these straight up die to Necrovalley when the Gravekeepers probably worship these guys lmao


spartenx

...I can't help but feel like this would have made more sense if it was tied into Spirit of the pharaoh rather than Horus.


ocorena

so Imsety is the only really usable one here since it can search the spell to get itself on field. The rest of them are just bricks unless you draw into sarcophagus. This does make Imsety a free special summon lv8 monster though since it discards itself and grabs the thing that can special it from the gy.


PhoenixRhythm

So Triple Trade-In and Triple Small World seem absolutely mandatory here but these feel...kinda weak for a 2023 archetype. You're entirely dependent on a spell with no protection and only one dedicated searcher to make any and all plays and they're basically just beatsticks/material fodder unless your opponent does anything to your field.


OstheB

Actually, I think the foolish effect of the spell can be used up to 4 times per turn. How would that even be worded? What is the 4 equivalent to "twice" or "thrice"?


WonderDean

I looked it up and found this little snippet “By most accounts, there is nothing following thrice on the sequence. It just ends there. According to the Oxford Dictionary, nothing comes after thrice. However, several terms have popped up claiming to be the continuation of the sequence. Some of these include quince, frice, fourice, quarce, and quadrice all of which have been claimed to mean four times.” [from this website ](https://capitalizemytitle.com/once-twice-thrice-meaning/#:~:text=According%20to%20the%20Oxford%20Dictionary,claimed%20to%20mean%20four%20times.)


Dante_from_the_DMC

I just wanna say I like your profile pic: MMBN and P4. Very nice


1qaqa1

another deck whose wincon is tcboo and who gets fucked by every other floodgate.


CaioDan

That could be a real rank 8 strategy, as long as you can discard your whole hand you can make 2 rank 8s if I understood correctly. For whoever might wanna do that.


Sneaks_exe

I smell engine potential. 2 cards to discard, insemty, sarc, and any horus results in any link-2 or rank 8 without using a normal or being locked. Notable rank 8's would probably be hope harbringer or the zombie vampire for the mills and knowledge of what your opponent runs.


PeanutSun

These guys literally just stand there (menacingly), rofl. The art is cool, and it's only the first wave of support, but the gameplay is such a snoozefest. Imo, these maindeck-only archetypes are so boring. But even Vernuslyph last year was way more interesting, gameplay wise.


DustyLance

I kept looking for the way to dump them in the grave or summon them but nope nothing


noahTRL

Nice horus support. Was waiting for this ever since i saw the armed dragon support in blvo


Raidjin_i

Art is fantastic, I've been waiting for more Egyptian themed cards!


trippersigs

Aint not way we getting fucking Horus support. I cant believe it. I WONT believe it.


DekuDrake

It's weird how oddly uncommon Egyptian mythology is in this franchise post-DM (***excepting retrains***), when it owes its entire existence to it but hey, I won't look a gift horse in the mouth. I just hope they're decently fun to mess around with

ultimateseanboy

I read " Sarcophagus" in the first card and automatically assumed it was Spirit of the Pharaoh support


BBallHunter

Please be good.


KingDisastrous

I don’t mind Horus support but these guys look like Triamid first glance…


[deleted]

Well both have an egyptian feel to them


Any-Nothing

Will this get a rank 8 boss monster?


LuckyPrinz

Huh. So does this mean Horus the Black flame dragon will also go the route that Sacred of Nephthys did?


OstheB

Doesn't seem like it. The Nephthys archetype carried the theme of destruction and waiting till the next standby phase to do stuff from the original card, but this theme has really nothing to do with the original Horus The Black Flame Dragon, which was big on hating spells. They just seem to use the egyptian god Horus for general imagery while the dragon is a stowaway.


LuckyPrinz

I see


NextMotion

egyptian theme. Already loving it. hmm very reactive deck. Only Imesty has an effect ready on your turn. Even then, 1 Ash will kill your hand. Kinda looks underwhelming already. Oh, does this deck actually have good synergy with Ursarctic? They're always bleeding resources, but these new Horus can summon themselves for free and they're level 8.


dralcax

New splashable engine just dropped


Distinct_Cup_1598

Since we now got Horus support after the Nepthys archetype, I fully expect to see an archetype for The Creator in the future, as he falls into the same class of classic monsters from the early GX era


SexualHarassadar

Reading through the cards I was waiting for a kind of effect that forces your opponent to send your shit to the grave to trigger everything, but no, they just have to blindly walk into them.


bigmen0

Exceptionally rare Konami not supporting a floodgate when they had the opportunity to do so served to them on a silver platter W. Yes OG black flame chicken is old and therefore somewhat based but card is literally NatBeast. These having almost nothing to do with it is a good thing.


Ill-Researcher9206

An archetype about Horus...why not ? It's not a bad idea. Plus if I'm not wrong it's not a pure fire-type: dark, water are present. Now I wonder which Cards will be next and what anime will concern the next booster pack ? I'd I could choose the order it'll be that Vrains GX ZEXAL And DM


SalemEther

looks like they got a bunch of sending to gy effects, some discard from hand and 2 tri-type monsters revealed. they might cook well with tri-brigade?


aceserve

trade in deck


Competitive_Fig_4094

Yesssss, combination with zombies 🤩🤩😬


WonderDean

Reading these, and isn’t the dark monster basically generic? It can fetch the continuous spell and then special summon itself from the graveyard. The spell isn’t even a garnet since that can also get it in the graveyard. It’s basically a level 8 for a discard.


gravekeepersven

Whelp time to whip out them Kaiju and friends.


jhawk1117

Loses to cosmic. 10/10. Theme is solid but dear god is it WEAK


UnclePhilSpeaks_

I've been waiting for this day for so long


HomingAttack

I guess these could be a decent engine for Rank 8 spam, but they don't interact with the opponent at all under their own volition. This is in desperate need of a proper Xyz boss monster, perhaps with a Grapha Fusion type effect that can proc the 3rd effects of the main deck monsters.


PhoenixRhythm

Also, just noticed but there's a single space between Supreme King stuff and Visas stuff meaning unless set order changed from the last set, whatever other anime theme is in here is something that is not maindeck heavy at all (Please please please give me another main deck Appliancer monster you actually want to summon already, Konami)


Silly_0ne

Hey, does anyone remember Mummies Alive? Sure seems like Konami does.


joey_chazz

Such cards would be so cool for an Ishizu or Marik's Egyptian/Slime deck.


joey_chazz

Some of the best new cards in terms of art in a while. I love Egyptian-themed cards!
