Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End 混沌帝龍　－終焉の使者－



"Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End" is a card that first appeared on Invasion of Chaos. This card alongside Chaos Sorcerer and Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning started the popular Chaos Decks that combined Dark and Light Monsters to quickly summon both Envoys and Chaos Sorcerer and that become a nightmare for other players since the powerful effects of the Chaos monsters. This type of Deck eventually lead to the creation of the Forbidden Lists.

Since it's release this card become very popular among players due to his mighty effect, huge attack, the fact that it was very easy to summon and the low cost to activate it's effect. However, other players considered it to be broken and overpowered, which caused this monster to be Forbidden on September 2004 Lists.

A strategy that was quickly discovered when this card was released was it's ability to introduce an unbreakable Yata-Lock with the help of Sangan or Witch of the Black Forest. The strategy was simple: The player activates Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End's effect while either Sangan or Witch of the Black Forest is on the field, then with effect of any of these two monsters add Yata-Garasu to their hand, summon him and attack directly. Thanks to Yata's effect the opponent will not be able to draw a card during their turn and with no cards on the field and hand will be unable to do anything assuring victory to Yata's controller. This strategy become feared by most of player and caused Chaos Emperor Dragon - Envoy of the End and Yata-Garasu to be banned.

Despite being Forbidden in Advanced Format this card still popular in Traditional Format due to his powerful abilities and even through he's forbidden now, his legacy still alive in his downgraded version: Demise, King of Armageddon. '''Stats
