The Rise!
Together with the rise of information regarding the Booster SP was also the advent of massive leaks all about the cards from the november booster issue:The Secret of Eternity(SECE).As I was expecting, there will be many archetypes revived at the same time,stronger decks that will become stronger.Speaking of strong archetypes, have you ever heard of this new "Qliphort" card? Well if not, here's the card that caught my attention.Prepare yourselves for the invisible plane "Qliphort Alias"!
[Pendulum Scale 1 ATK 2800/DEF 1000]
Monster Effects:
(1) You can Normal Summon this card without Tributing.
(2) If this card is Normal Summoned without Tributing or is Special Summoned, its Level becomes 4 and its original ATK becomes 1800.
(3) If this card is Normal Summoned/Set, it is unaffected by activated effects from any monster whose original Level/Rank is lower than this card’s current Level.
(4) When this card is Tribute Summoned by Tributing “Qliphort” monsters: You can target 1 card on the field; return that card to the hand. Your opponent cannot activate cards or effects in response to this effect’s activation.
Pendulum Effects:
(1) You cannot Special Summon monsters, except for “Qliphort” monsters. This effect cannot be negated.
(2) All “Qliphort” monsters you control gain 300 ATK.
As you can see, it packs the standard pendulum and the first three monster effects of "Qliphort Disc".What makes this card different (aside from its artwork) was its 4th monster effect.It has the "Monarch-esque" effect that can create massive combos and at the same time,control the field.In addition,it can also trick the opponent using its "cannot response" effect via chain link and SEGOC.So what are some examples of these combos?
Hype-em up!
Consider this scenario:
Are you familiar with the "Trump" combo? for the benefit of the doubt,it is a combo that requires "Entermate Trampolynx" and "Qliphort Tool" to create advantage and thin your deck.

| "Trump" combo |
Just right after you search with tool's effect,you can immediately pendulum summon the "Qliphort" monster you just added then trigger "Entermate Trampolynx" effect to bounce tool to your hand then search again.With "Qliphort Alias",you can do the search not just twice but three times!
Consider the previous scenario but instead of having only "Qliphort Tool" and "Entermate Trampolynx", you will add "Saqliphort" or a random "Qliphort" monster.(Barring "Apoqliphort Killer").
(In case you already have a number of "Qliphort" monsters face up on your extra deck,you will only need "Entermate Trampolynx" and "Qliphort Tool".

| with "Qliphort Alias" |
Just after you search twice using the "Trump" combo, you can tribute summon "Qliphort Alias" to return your tool once again to your hand then activate the bounced tool once again to search!
"Qliphort" still , as of now will always been one of the tier 1 decks this october format. With new cards that is continuosly added to their arsenal, we can say that this deck can really be one of the tough contenders in today's meta. So after all of this and the emergence of the overhyped "Necloths", what do you think will be their status in the future? Are Qliphorts will become invisible? or they will remain and rise and will be held aloft "Invincible"?
Only time will tell.
Stay tune for the interview article.Respect,love and Play the game we love!
