Inzektor " Inzektor " ( " Inzekutā " ) is an archetype of DARK Insect monsters which was introduced in " Order of Chaos " . Most " Inzektor " monsters equip themselves with other " Inzektor " monsters from the hand or Graveyard , or have effects that trigger when they are equipped to one . Design . Appearance . The " Inzektor " monsters appears to be humanoids wearing various insect - styled armor . They also seem to be heavily inspired by the Kamen Rider franchise . Etymology . Each " Inzektor " monster is named after a type of arthropod . Playing style . " Inzektor Dragonfly " , " Inzektor Centipede " and , to a certain extent , " Inzektor Firefly " benefit from being equipped by an " Inzektor " monster , while " Inzektor Hornet " , " Inzektor Ant " , " Inzektor Ladybug " , " Inzektor Earwig " , " Inzektor Giga - Mantis " , " Inzektor Giga - Cricket " and " Inzektor Giga - Weevil " furnish benefits as equipment . " Inzektor Dragonfly " , " Inzektor Ant " , " Inzektor Centipede " and " Inzektor Hornet " can equip themselves with " Inzektor " monsters from the hand or Graveyard . If an Equip Card equipped to it is sent to the Graveyard , " Dragonfly " Special Summon s any other " Inzektor " from the Deck , while " Centipede " adds an " Inzektor " from the Deck to the hand . Regular " Inzektor " monsters that work as equipment have a few different effects . The Level 3 ones increase the Level of the monster they are equipped to by 3 . " Inzektor Hornet " has the additional effect of increasing the host monster ' s ATK and DEF by 500 and 200 respectively and can destroy 1 card on the field by sending itself to the Graveyard . " Inzektor Ant " can destroy itself in place of the host monster while also boosting its ATK and DEF by 200 and 600 respectively . The effects of " Hornet " and " Ant " trigger the effects of " Inzektor Dragonfly " and " Inzektor Centipede " . " Giga " " Inzektor " monsters can equip themselves right away from your hand and can increase the host monster ' s stats . " Giga - Mantis " makes its host ' s ATK 2400 and " Giga - Weevil " makes its host ' s DEF 2600 . In addition , if they are sent to the Graveyard while equipped , they Summon another " Inzektor " from the Graveyard . " Exa " " Inzektor " monsters are the Xyz Monster s of this archetype and are able to equip your opponent ' s monsters to themselves . The " Inzektor " released in Order of Chaos aim to Xyz Summon a Rank 6 Xyz Monster , but later , in Galactic Overlord , new " Inzektors " are focusing to get to a Rank 5 instead of 6 using Level 2 and 5 " Inzektors " . Since the announcement of September 2012 Lists , Inzektor decks have taken some very serious blows due to limitation of both " Inzektor Hornet " and " Inzektor Dragonfly " , which were their most important primary cards . However , supports from other Inzektor cards such as " Inzektor Sword - Zektkaliber " and " Inzektor Ladybug " can still retain this deck ' s playability . " Inzektors " are an aggressive archetype , picking off cards and swarming while increasing card presence . The goal of any successful " Inzektor " play style should be Field control via the destruction effect of " Inzektor Hornet " . Almost any " Inzektor " monster can equip " Inzektor Hornet " and use Hornet ' s effect to send it to the Graveyard to destroy any card on your opponent ' s side of the field . If used in conjunction with the effect of " Inzektor Dragonfly " to special summon any " Inzektor monster " from your deck after losing an Equip Card you can quickly net + 1 gains to field control . If you use " Inzektor Dragonfly " to summon " Inzektor Centipede " , you can add any " Inzektor " card from deck to hand , including any Spell cards or Trap cards . A player can add another " Inzektor Dragonfly " to hand to be used next turn or grab " Inzektor Sword - Zektkaliber " which can turn even the weakest Inzektors into powerful beaters . And if " Inzektor Sword - Zektkaliber " ever goes from the Field to the Graveyard it can add an Inzektor monster in your Graveyard back to your hand . " Inzektor Ladybug " can be used to increase the Level of any monster on your side of the field by 1 or 2 making Xyz or Synchro summoning even more versatile . A player can employ the same " Inzektor Loop " but with " Inzektor Ladybug " instead of " Inzektor Hornet " to make powerful Rank 5 Monster Cards like " Tiras , Keeper of Genesis " , " Adreus , Keeper of Armageddon " or " . It ' s recommended to do this if your opponent has not played anything to their side of the Field making the destruction effect of " Inzektor Hornet " useless . Finally " Inzektors " are capable of a powerful OTK . In the event that your opponent has not summoned any monsters or played any Spells or Traps in the hope of Stalling , an Inzektor player can equip an " Inzektor Sword - Zektkaliber " to their " Inzektor Dragonfly " and destroy it with " Inzektor Hornet " . By doing so a player triggers the effect of " Inzektor Dragonfly " twice putting two monsters onto the field , instead of one . The player can also make use of the effect of " Inzektor Giga - Mantis " to Special Summon a monster if destroyed while equipped to get even more monsters on the field . And then using " " to increase the attack of every monster on the field by 300 . A player can quickly Swarm the field . " Armageddon Knight " , " Howling Insect " , " Mystic Tomato " , and " Verdant Sanctuary " raise the consistency of " Inzektor " combos . " Maxx " C " " can be used to provide draw power . Also you can use " Tour Guide from the Underworld " to help thin the deck and quickly Xyz Summon Rank 3 monsters . " Summoner Monk " can be used to Summon " Armageddon Knight " and dump " Inzektor Hornet " or " Inzektor Ladybug " . You can then Xyz Summon " Lavalval Chain " and use its effect to dump " Hornet " or " Ladybug " or put " Dragonfly " on top of the deck . Synchro Build . With the release of " Galactic Overlord " , Inzektors gain " Inzektor Ladybug " , a surprisingly useful card , and one of the key components to an Inzektor Synchro deck . An " Inzektor " Synchro deck relies less on " Hornet ' s " field control ( although that is still present and commonly led ) and more on " Inzektor Dragonfly ' s ablility to summon another " Inzektor " , which , in this deck , can be any of levels 1 - 6 . Combine this with Tuners that can Summon themselves , like " Plaguespreader Zombie " , " Genex Ally Birdman " and " Unknown Synchron " , or Tuners that can Special Summon more copies of themselves , like " Naturia Cherries " , or even Tuners like " Krebons " that can negate attacks , and you have a remarkably flexible and surprisingly fast Synchro engine . Hornet still exists for field control , but " ladybug " and " Hopper " can trigger " Inzektor Dragonfly ' s " effect too . " Inzektor Centipede " exists mainly to get " Inzektor Dragonfly " to your hand . " Inzektor Firefly " can help to Summon " Formula Synchron " , which can happen easily with " One for One " or similar cards . " Sangan " is useful , as it searches every Inzektor you would need as well as your Tuners . " Debris Dragon " can revive " Inzektor Hornet " or " Inzektor Ladybug " for another Synchro Summon as well . " Wind - Up Zenmaines " and " Leviair the Sea Dragon " are about the only Xyz you need ( especially " Leviair " , to bring back " Plaguespreader " for 2 more Synchro Summons ) . Weaknesses . " Effect Veiler " , " Fiendish Chain " and " Skill Drain " will easily stop " Inzektor Dragonfly " , " Inzektor Centipede " and " Inzektor Ladybug " from using their equip effects in the first place . " Shadow - Imprisoning Mirror " can shut this Deck down , since there will be no way of equipping " Inzektor Hornet " . They also depend on being able to Normal Summon " Inzektor Dragonfly " or " Inzektor Centipede " , so " Book of Moon " and " Trap Hole " stall the engine even just for a turn . Since the majority of their strength comes from " Inzektor Hornet " , " D . D . Crow " and Macro - based Decks in general cause problems . " Chain Disappearance " is also a detriment to this Deck since it can banish both " Inzektor Hornet " and " Inzektor Dragonfly " ( especially since both of them are currently Limited ) , as well as " Inzektor Ladybug " . Virus cards such as " Deck Devastation Virus " also make it difficult to use this deck , since most of the low - Level Inzektors have an ATK lower than 1500 . Also , since this deck relies on its setup for preparing its own bombardment tactics via " Inzektor Hornet " , OTK - based decks such as " Hieratic " s can usually take down this deck even before they can get their setups going . Since " Inzektor Centipede " has become crucial card in most recent Inzektor builds , cards like " Bottomless Trap Hole " and " Chaos Trap Hole " are effective for dispatching " Inzektor Centipede " . " Thunder King Rai - Oh " can also stop its deck searching effect ( assuming " Inzektor Hornet " does not destroy it first ) . Against a deck running many WIND - attribute cards , " Mystic Fairy Elfuria " can badly slow down an Inzektor deck ' s Xyz Summon ing choices through the limiting Rank 3 , 4 , 5 and 6 choices with its monster effect . And even if " Mystic Fairy Elfuria " leaves the field , its effect remains active until your next End Phase . Finally because of the fact that " Inzektor " s equipped to other monsters are treated as " Equip Spell Card s , giving way to certain abilities , cards like " Dark Highlander " , " Eternal Rest " , " Really Eternal Rest " , " Tailor of the Fickle " , " The Emperor ' s Holiday " , " Disarmament " , " Armored Glass " , " Armor Break " and " Collected Power " can knock off their abilities on the Field .
