The Qliphort menace spreads in Secrets Of Eternity, which launches this Friday! While Qliphort Scout became one of the most feared cards of 2014, anchoring the Qliphort Pendulum Scale at 9 and searching a free card every turn, Qliphort Monolith completes the deadly diptych; a Scale 1 Pendulum Monster that rivals the power of Scout.
The Qliphort strategy’s all about amassing a growing armada in your Extra Deck. Since Pendulum Monsters are sent there when they’d normally go from the field to the Graveyard, each destroyed, Tuned, or Tributed Qliphort just comes back.

Debuting in The New Challengers, the Qliphort theme’s all about setting up Pendulum Summons, then leveraging them into swarming attacks and big Tribute Summons.

Since you can Pendulum Summon monsters from your Extra Deck, you can keep Tributing the same Qliphorts over and over.
Yes! You heard that right: nearly all the “Qliphort” monsters are Pendulum Monsters! That makes it really easy to load up your Pendulum Zones, because instead of hunting around looking for two specific cards, you can use almost any pair of Qliphorts. Read more…
