Orcust

A link and xyz based archetype with many members having the ability to banish themselves from the gy to gain advantage. Their link 2 monster Galatea, the Orcust Automaton, enables an easy summon of their boss monster Dingirsu, the Orcust of the Evening Star who has a strong removal ability and provides allies with destruction protection. The archetypes has various effects that lock you into summon DARK type monsters only.

General Counter Tips:

Cards that a) prevent banishing, b) remove or mitigate GY effects, or c) remove the monsters on the GY (ex. Bystials) are good tools against them.
