Insectation

[The Nyx Avatar]

Normal Spell

Activate while you control no monsters. Special Summon 1 Level 2 or lower Insect monster from your Deck in face-up Attack Position or face-down Defense Position. If you do, you can treat all monsters on the field as Insect monsters until the End Phase. You can only activate 1 "Insectation" once per turn.

Card is good, but one really cannot go wrong with E-Teleport kind of cards, and the Insect conversion surely combos with the recent Weevil support, although I don't remember any possible plays at the moment. The requirement of controlling no monsters may keep it from being banlist-worthy like E-Tele, but I would still keep an eye on it and future Insects.

My evil side, however, thinks this could be a Quick-Play so you can defend, Set an Insect and/or turn your opponent's monsters into Insects during its turn.

Weevil's Parasite cards and Drill Bug perhaps? Or stuff like Gokibore for some adding. And two Inzektor monsters for what it's worth.

 

I don't see how that's evil. It's more of practical, and what Insects could use. Changed it to a Quick-Play Spell Card.

I like that Type-changing effect, although I don't quite thing it big enough to run Insect Barrier, and I wanna use Insect Barrier xD
The character creature in the card's image is one of my brother's favorite MTG cards so, gotta love that trivia. Or at least it does look a lot like a certain red 3/3 creature from a starter deck.

 

The "if you control no monsters" helps it a ton in terms of balance IMO, though I'm not a big fan of Inzektors and think them pretty degenerate even if they are technically power-creeped, but I guess that's a matter of taste, and this does help Krawlers too.

 

I would probably aim for a fun goal of seeing how much I can boost an Insect Queen with this.... as weird as that might be.
