Dark Ones



The Dark Ones cards are a series of mostly DARK Attribute monsters. They are used by Protheus Maximus. They are mostly named by Greek letters, similar to the Vairon archetype, although their appearance has no connection with their names.

These cards were given to him by his 'Master', after he had died a fifth time, thus proving that he needed more powerful assistance, the most powerful assistance. The Dark Ones are of the same kind as the Dark One Zorc, and thus are connected to the card Dark Master - Zorc in a few ways, except for the strongest trump card The Twilight One, which is a forgotten god no longer worshipped who then took its place as the servant of the Master. It is said that those who are unworthy of the Dark One cards will burn into oblivion, as what happened to a Psychic Duelist when he stole them from Protheus Maximus.

Playing Style
Being one of the most powerful archetypes possible, they mainly focus on a Beatdown Strategy, although it also focuses on summoning many Monsters in a single turn, thus providing material for Fusion Monsters, Synchro Monsters, and even Fusion Monsters.

The most powerful card of them all, 'The Twilight One', can attack directly, and with 4300 ATK, makes it virtually unstoppable.Not only that, it has a unique Gameplay Mechanic called 'Burning', which is the final form of removal. It can burn five cards that are removed from play to Special Summon it from the Graveyard, although it cannot attack the turn that effect is activated.

Alternatively, it's possible to use either Dark One Alpha Thanatos or Dark One Omega Akribis, the former of which focuses on summoning Dark Ones, and the latter of which focuses on negation and inflicting damage like the card Elemental Hero Flame Wingman.
