Now this has potential but we'll need better Darklords first.

Send 1 "Darklord" monster from your hand or face-up from your field to the Graveyard; destroy 1 card on the field. You can only activate 1 "Darklord Rebellion" per turn.

A rebellion is always something to worry about, unless it's this pitiful.

Darklord Contact
Normal Spell
Special Summon 1 "Darklord" monster from your Graveyard in Defense Position. You can only activate 1 "Darklord Contact" per turn.
SECRET RARE

                                              Rating: 1
I really can't see any reason why you'd want your Darklord in Defense Mode when most of them have high ATK and since it's your turn that this gets used, you won't be attacking with it and there are better cards if you want to perform a Summon.

Banishment of the Darklords
Normal Spell
Add 1 "Darklord" card from your Deck to your hand, except "Banishment of the Darklords". You can only activate 1 "Banishment of the Darklords" per turn.

The Darklord support so far isn't very good but this probably isn't the end of the archetype just yet.

Effect Monster

Darklord Amdusc
DARK / Fairy / Level 6 / ATK 1800 / DEF 2800
You can discard this card and 1 "Darklord" card, then target 1 "Darklord" card in your Graveyard; add it to your hand.

SECRET RARE

                                              Rating: 1
Garbagelord Amcrap is more like it. While it can get any Darklord card you want from your Graveyard for the price of a card from your hand, Darklords have yet to prove to me that they're a worthwhile Deck strategy and this is only adding to the Trash Rares of the past.

Darklord Tezcatlipoca
DARK / Fairy / Level 9 / ATK 2800 / DEF 2100

Somewhat better than Ixchel since it not only has higher ATK but its first effect is at least a little better, though the 2nd is just as bad.

Darklord Ixchel
DARK / Fairy / Level 10 / ATK 2500 / DEF 2900

You don't have to Tribute Summon it unlike Morningstar but both effects will cost you either LP or cards from your hand and like its ATK and DEF, aren't particularly good.

Effect Monster

Darklord Morningstar
DARK / Fairy / Level 11 / ATK 3000 / DEF 3000
Cannot be Special Summoned. If this card is Tribute Summoned: You can Special Summon "Darklord" monsters from your hand and/or Deck, up to the number of Effect Monsters your opponent controls. While you control another "Darklord" monster, your opponent cannot target this card with card effects. Once per turn: You can send cards from the top of your Deck to the Graveyard, equal to the number of "Darklord" monsters on the field, and if you do, gain 500 LP for each "Darklord" card sent to the Graveyard by this effect.
SECRET RARE

                                              Rating: 2
You can't Special Summon it but you'll probably have one or two other Darklords joining this and since Marie the Fallen One and Nurse Reficule are both officially Darklord monsters now in the TCG, you could pick them too, though there are better options.
 
                                                               DESO-EN028
Trap Card

Abyss Actors Back Stage
Normal Trap
If you have 2 "Abyss Actor" cards in your Pendulum Zones: Add 2 "Abyss Actor" Pendulum Monsters with different names from your Deck to your Extra Deck face-up. You can only activate 1 "Abyss Actors Back Stage" per turn.
SUPER RARE

                                              Rating: 1
You're depositing resources that could otherwise help you by banking on the idea that you'll still have those two Abyss Actors in your Pendulum Zones. Plus it doesn't help that this is a Trap Card and you're forced to get two different Abyss Actor Pendulum Monsters.

Spell Card

Abyss Script - Rise of the Abyss King
Normal Spell
Target face-up cards on the field, up to the number of Attack Position "Abyss Actor" monsters with different names you control; destroy them. If you control a Level 7 or higher "Abyss Actor" monster, your opponent cannot activate cards or effects in response to this card's activation. If this Set card in its owner's control is destroyed by an opponent's card effect, and you have a face-up "Abyss Actor" Pendulum Monster in your Extra Deck: You can add up to 2 "Abyss Actor" cards and/or "Abyss Script" Spell Cards with different names from your Deck to your hand.

Pretty powerful with Abyss Actors but really not much else can make use of it.

Spell Card

Abyss Script - Wild Wagon
Continuous Spell
The first time each "Abyss Actor" monster you control would be destroyed by battle each turn, it is not destroyed. Once per turn: You can target 1 "Abyss Actor" monster you control; your opponent cannot target it with card effects until the end of their turn (even if this card leaves the field). If this Set card in its owner's control is destroyed by an opponent's card effect, and you have a face-up "Abyss Actor" Pendulum Monster in your Extra Deck: You can return all cards your opponent controls to the hand.
SUPER RARE

                                              Rating: 2
It can save an Abyss Actor from destruction and leave your opponent's field empty if destroyed while Set but like the other Abyss Script cards, that requires an Abyss Actor monster to be face-up on your Extra Deck.
 
                                                               DESO-EN025
Spell Card

Abyss Script - Fire Dragon's Lair
Normal Spell
Target 1 "Abyss Actor" monster you control; if it destroys your opponent's monster by battle this turn, your opponent banishes 3 monsters from their Extra Deck (their choice). If this Set card in its owner's control is destroyed by an opponent's card effect, and you have a face-up "Abyss Actor" Pendulum Monster in your Extra Deck: You can look at your opponent's Extra Deck, also banish 1 monster from their Extra Deck. You can only use this effect of "Abyss Script - Fire Dragon's Lair" once per turn.
SUPER RARE

                                              Rating: 1
Your opponent gets to choose their lost Extra Deck monsters and that could be ones that wouldn't do anything in the duel anyway. Plus with up to 15 choices, that won't drop your opponent's Extra Deck arsenal down by much. The other effect is just as bad.
 
                                                               DESO-EN024
Spell Card

Abyss Script - Opening Ceremony
Normal Spell
Gain 500 LP for each "Abyss Actor" monster you control. If this Set card in its owner's control is destroyed by an opponent's card effect, and you have a face-up "Abyss Actor" Pendulum Monster in your Extra Deck: You can draw until you have 5 cards in your hand. You can only use each effect of "Abyss Script - Opening Ceremony" once per turn.
SUPER RARE

                                              Rating: 2
With Pendulum Summoning being available and with Abyss Actors having the necessary Scales to help you maximize this card's potential, this isn't all that bad and should you need a new hand, you can Set this and wait for your opponent to destroy it, though you'll also need to have an Abyss Actor monster face-up on your Extra Deck.
 
                                                               DESO-EN023
Spell Card

Abyss Script - Fantasy Magic
Normal Spell
Target 1 "Abyss Actor" monster you control; this turn, every monster that battles it, but is not destroyed, returns to the hand at the end of the Damage Step. If this Set card in its owner's control is destroyed by an opponent's card effect, and you have a face-up "Abyss Actor" Pendulum Monster in your Extra Deck: You can target 1 card your opponent controls; place it on top of the Deck.

Pendulum Monster

Abyss Actor - Wild Hope
DARK / Fiend-Type Pendulum / Level 4 / ATK 1600 / DEF 1200 / Scale 2
Once per turn: You can target 1 "Abyss Actor" card in your other Pendulum Zone; its Pendulum Scale becomes 9 until the end of this turn, also you cannot Special Summon monsters for the rest of this turn, except "Abyss Actor" monsters (even if this card leaves the field).

Once per turn: You can make this card gain 100 ATK for each "Abyss Actor" monster you currently control with different names, until the end of this turn. If this card is destroyed by battle or card effect: You can add 1 "Abyss Actor" card from your Deck to your hand, except "Abyss Actor - Wild Hope". You can only use this effect of "Abyss Actor - Wild Hope" once per turn.
SECRET RARE

                                              Rating: 2
The Scale is already low enough and can make the other Abyss Actor monster occupying your other Pendulum Zone have a Scale of 9 but then that basically means you'll be best off using this with its friends. The other effect is pretty bad too but the last effect isn't all that bad.
 
                                                               DESO-EN021
Pendulum Monster

Abyss Actor - Leading Lady
DARK / Fiend-Type Pendulum / Level 4 / ATK 1500 / DEF 1000 / Scale 2
Once per turn, when you take battle damage from an opponent's attacking monster: You can activate 1 of these effects;
● That opponent's monster loses ATK equal to the damage you took (even if this card leaves the field).
● Add 1 face-up "Abyss Actor" Pendulum Monster from your Extra Deck to your hand with ATK less than or equal to the damage you took.

Once per turn, when battle damage is inflicted: You can target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls; it loses ATK equal to that battle damage. When this card is destroyed by battle, or if this card in its owner's Monster Zone is destroyed by an opponent's card effect: You can Set 1 "Abyss Script" Spell Card directly from your Deck.
SECRET RARE

                                              Rating: 2
The Scale is pretty low and it is searchable, but the effects rely on you taking Battle Damage to accomplish anything with the effects.

Pendulum Monster

Abyss Actor - Extras
DARK / Fiend-Type Pendulum / Level 1 / ATK 100 / DEF 100 / Scale 3
If your opponent controls a monster: You can Special Summon this card from your Pendulum Zone. You can only use this effect of "Abyss Actor - Extras" once per turn.

You can Tribute this card; place 1 "Abyss Actor" Pendulum Monster from your Deck in your Pendulum Zone, also for the rest of this turn, you cannot Special Summon monsters, except "Abyss Actor" monsters, nor activate the Pendulum Effect of "Abyss Actor - Extras". You can only use this effect of "Abyss Actor - Extras" once per turn.

Its stats are terrible but the effects aren't too bad and will at least get you a monster for Summons or defending, even if it isn't much.

Pendulum Monster

Abyss Actor - Sassy Rookie
DARK / Fiend-Type Pendulum / Level 4 / ATK 1700 / DEF 1000 / Scale 2
If an "Abyss Actor" monster(s) you control would be destroyed by battle or an opponent's card effect, you can destroy this card instead.

The first time this card would be destroyed by battle or card effect each turn, it is not destroyed. If this card is destroyed by battle, or if this card in its owner's Monster Zone is destroyed by an opponent's card effect: You can Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower "Abyss Actor" monster from your Deck, except "Abyss Actor - Sassy Rookie". If this card in the Pendulum Zone is destroyed: You can target 1 Level 4 or lower monster your opponent controls; destroy it.
SUPER RARE

It's mostly only good because of its Scale as the effects are both mediocre as are its stats.

Abyss Actor - Superstar
DARK / Fiend-Type Pendulum / Level 7 / ATK 2500 / DEF 1800 / Scale 3
Once per turn: You can Tribute 1 "Abyss Actor" monster, then target 1 "Abyss Script" Spell Card in your Graveyard; add it to your hand.

When Normal or Special Summoned, your opponent's Spell/Trap Cards and effects cannot be activated. Once per turn: You can Set 1 "Abyss Script" Spell Card directly from your Deck, but it is sent to the Graveyard during the End Phase.
SECRET RARE

Not as strong and has a higher Scale than Evil Heel but it's still low enough to use with Funky Comedian's Scale of 8. The effects aren't that good though.

Pendulum Monster

Abyss Actor - Funky Comedian
DARK / Fiend-Type Pendulum / Level 1 / ATK 300 / DEF 200 / Scale 8
Once per turn: You can Tribute 1 "Abyss Actor" monster, then target 1 "Abyss Actor" monster you control; it gains ATK equal to the original ATK of the Tributed monster, until the end of this turn (even if this card leaves the field).

If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can make this card gain 300 ATK for each "Abyss Actor" monster you currently control, until the end of this turn. You can target 1 other "Abyss Actor" monster you control; it gains ATK equal to this card's current ATK, until the end of this turn. This card cannot attack the turn this effect is activated. You can only use this effect of "Abyss Actor - Funky Comedian" once per turn.
SUPER RARE

                                              Rating: 2
They took Evil Heel's ATK and DEF, knocked off a zero in both, and raised its Scale to 8 but at least the Scale and effects make this guy worthwhile, though not as much as Evil Heel.

Pendulum Monster

Abyss Actor - Evil Heel
DARK / Fiend-Type Pendulum / Level 8 / ATK 3000 / DEF 2000 / Scale 1
Once per turn: You can Tribute 1 "Abyss Actor" monster, then target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls; it loses ATK equal to the original ATK of the Tributed monster, until the end of this turn (even if this card leaves the field).

If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls; it loses 1000 ATK for each "Abyss Actor" monster you currently control, until the end of this turn. When this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle: You can target 1 "Abyss Script" Spell Card in your Graveyard; Set that card.

Very high ATK, very low scale and pretty decent effects make this card worthwhile wherever you want to use it.

Trap Card

D-Fusion
Normal Trap
Fusion Summon 1 Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck, using monsters you control as Fusion Materials, and if you do, it cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects this turn. Only "Destiny HERO" monsters can be used as Fusion Materials for a Fusion Summon using this card's effect.
SECRET RARE

                                              Rating: 2
I realize they're trying to make fun of the original De-Fusion card name but I would've thought it'd be named differently due to confusion much like Mimicat vs Copycat even though the cards are different enough to at least minimize confusion. I guess De-Fusion and this card are too different for any kind of confusion to arise by Konami's standards. Of course, the effect here isn't too bad but limits your options to Destiny HERO monsters you control for Fusion Materials and won't protect the Fusion Summoned monster for long.
 
                                                               DESO-EN007
Effect Monster

D Cubed
DARK / Machine / Level 1 / ATK 0 / DEF 0
If this card is Normal Summoned: It is also treated as a "Destiny HERO" monster while face-up on the field. You can only use each of the following effects of "D Cubed" once per turn.
● You can discard up to 2 cards; Special Summon "D Cubed" from your hand, Deck, and/or Graveyard, equal to the number discarded, also for the rest of this turn, you cannot Normal or Special Summon other monsters, except "Destiny HERO" monsters.
● If this card is destroyed by battle or card effect: You can send 1 "Destiny HERO" monster from your Deck to the Graveyard.
SECRET RARE

                                              Rating: 2
It follows its anime counterpart fairly well with the ability to help for Tribute or Special Summons of the higher Level Destiny HERO monsters like Plasma but those are your only options the turn the effect is used. Having it count as a Destiny HERO monster while face-up on the field isn't bad either though.

Destiny HERO - Celestial
DARK / Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1600 / DEF 1400

If you have 3 or more "Destiny HERO" monsters in your Graveyard: You can discard this card, then target 1 "Destiny HERO" monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon it to your opponent's field in Defense Position. When a Spell Card or effect you activate resolves, negate that effect, and if you do, or if it did not have an effect, destroy that card. During your Standby Phase: You can banish this card and 1 "Destiny HERO" monster from your Graveyard; each player chooses 1 Normal Spell Card from their Deck, and places it on top of their Deck.

Destiny HERO - Dystopia
DARK / Warrior-Type Fusion / Level 8 / ATK 2800 / DEF 2400
2 "Destiny HERO" monsters
If this card is Special Summoned: You can target 1 Level 4 or lower "Destiny HERO" monster in your Graveyard; inflict damage to your opponent equal to that target's ATK. During either player's turn, if this card's current ATK is different from its original ATK (except during the Damage Step): You can target 1 card on the field; destroy it, and if you do, this card's ATK becomes equal to this card's original ATK. You can only use each effect of "Destiny HERO - Dystopia" once per turn.
SECRET RARE

                                              Rating: 2
Thanks to the new Destiny HERO monsters in this set, this has a few more chances to deal somewhat decent damage to your opponent when Special Summoned and can retore its ATK should it ever go down to a point where your opponent's weaker monsters can take it down but each effect is limited to once per turn.

Destiny HERO - Decider
DARK / Warrior / Level 4 / ATK 1600 / DEF 1000
Level 6 or higher monsters your opponent controls cannot target this card for attacks. You can only use each of the following effects of "Destiny HERO - Decider" once per Duel.
● If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can add 1 "HERO" monster from your Graveyard to your hand during the End Phase of this turn.
● During either player's turn, when a card or effect is activated that would inflict damage to you, while this card is in your Graveyard: Return this card to your hand, and if you do, make that effect damage to you 0.
SECRET RARE

                                              Rating: 2
I can't give it much credit since the better effects can only be used once per Duel, rendering any other copies you have in your Deck practically useless. The other effect can be useful if your opponent doesn't Xyz Summon.

Destiny HERO - Dynatag
DARK / Warrior / Level 5 / ATK 1000 / DEF 1000

You can banish this card from your Graveyard, then target 1 "Destiny HERO" monster you control; it gains 1000 ATK until the end of your opponent's next turn.
SUPER RARE

                                              Rating: 2
It's best to have it in the Graveyard to use the other effect because the first effect will still cost you and your opponent LP even if it reduces battle damage to 0. Plus its stats and Level aren't very good to have it on the field.

You can only use this effect of "Destiny HERO - Drilldark" once per turn. If this card attacks a Defense Position monster, inflict piercing battle damage to your opponent.
SUPER RARE

                                              Rating: 2
The stronger he is when you Summon him, the more options you can pick from, though that also depends on what you have in your hand at the time too. Dealing piercing battle damage isn't too bad though.
