Shaitan Archetype (15/15) - Invisible Demonic Monstrosities

[Atypical-Abbie]

Shaitan is an archetype of Fiend/DARK monsters with various Levels. They focus on Synchro Summoning, temporarily banishing their own monsters and high Level monsters. Each card, other than the Extra Deck monsters, have an effect that adds them to the hand when a face-up Fiend monster is banished. Keep in mind you can only trigger one of these effects for each instance of a Fiend monster being banished though. Their main playstyle revolves around using their Field Spell Imaginal Realm in combination with their Synchro Monsters to remove all your opponent's monsters from the field, and triggering the Synchro Monsters' effects, specifically using their boss monster Shaitan Azazil in combination will even shuffle those monsters into the Deck, the downside is that you can only attack with that Synchro Monster that turn.

Shaitan are a demon or devil in Islamic belief, and are in general described as ugly or grotesque, so I tried to make these fellas as nasty as I could. Additionally, the Field Spell Imaginal Realm is another reference to Malakut, a supposed invisible realm that is close to God.
