Template:Infobox archetype
The Inca series is the last Dark Signer Deck featured in the Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's anime, used by Rex Goodwin. They somewhat resemble the mythological creatures and artifacts of the Incan civilization and their names usually represent Incan deities. They are released in Absolute Powerforce.
Playing Style
The main focus of the deck is to Synchro Summon out "Sun Dragon Inti" and "Moon Dragon Quilla". These two Synchro Monsters will form a loop, where one dragon revives another when they are Destroyed. Over time during a Duel, this loop becomes very frustrating for the opponent. Duelists also use cards like "Ancient Forest" and "Des Counterblow" to destroy their own dragons in order for them to gain their effects.
Generally, an Inca Deck wants to bring out the Dragons as soon as possible. There are many cards that help do this:
- "Cyber Dragon", "The Tricky" and "Tragoedia" can be easily brought out, and as long as you have a tuner, you will be able to summon a dragon.
- "Ryko": "Ryko" allows a player to send the top three cards of their deck to the Graveyard. Helpful for sending the tuners to the grave.
- "Level Eater". Combos well with Level 5's and higher. Allows more variety in terms of synchroing.
- "One for One": Allows a player to discard 1 monster in order to special summon a level 1 tuner. It has a combo in which both dragons can be brought out in one go, as early as the first Turn.
The combo is as follows:
- 1) Special summon an "Oracle of the Sun"/"The Tricky". (Note that Oracle requires you to have no monsters while your opponent has monsters)
- 2) Activate "One for One", discarding "Level Eater" to Special Summon "Supay".
- 3) Tune "Supay" with your level 5 monster to summon "Moon Dragon Quilla".
- 4) Activate the effect of "Level Eater" to reduce the Level of "Quilla" by one and Special Summon "Level Eater".
- 5) Normal summon "Fire Ant Ascator".
- 6) Tune "Fire Ant" with the Level 5 "Quilla" and Synchro Summon "Sun Dragon Inti".
- "Limit Reverse": This trap allows you to Special Summon a monster with 1000 attack or less. "Oracle", "Fire Ant" and "Supay" all have under 1000 attack, so this card can be used to revive the monsters and use them for more Synchro Monsters.
- "Skill Drain": This card shuts down all monster effects for the cost of 1000 life points. This card counters many decks in the current meta. Also, the Dragon's effect activates in the Graveyard, so it will not burden the deck.
- "Imperial Iron Wall": This card helps protect the loop against cards like "D.D. Crow" and "Orient Dragon". Although it does not make summoning the loop easier, it helps protect against the loop.
- "Salvage Warrior": Debuting in Extreme Victory, "Salvage Warrior" allows a player to summon a tuner from your hand or Graveyard when it is Tribute Summoned.
- "Giant Rat" and "Shining Angel" helps get out the tuners and "Oracle of the Sun" respectively.
Weaknesses
Whilst Inca can be a formidable deck, there are many cards that may cause huge problems for Inca. The main problem is cards that banish the Dragons, or return them back to the extra Deck. For example, cards like "Bottomless Trap Hole" and "D.D. Crow" are able to permanently remove the dragons from the game, thus ending the loop. While "Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier" could return them to the extra Deck, which means you will have to re-Synchro Summon the Dragons. Use "Imperial Iron Wall" to prevent the loop from stopping. "Solemn Judgment" and "Solemn Warning" prevent the Dragons from being summoned and therefore, the loop is delayed. Use "Seven Tools of the Bandit" and "Dark Bribe" to negate these. Another weakness is that the Dragons both require specific Tuner monsters.

Trivia
- Inti and Quilla are most likely paired up and given the ability to revive one another because Inti, the sun god, was married to Mama Quilla, the moon goddess. "Earthbound Immortal Wiraqocha Rasca" is also based on Viraqocha, the god of everything in Incan culture.
- There are many different variants for an Inca deck. For a broader understanding of these variants the following thread is helpful: http://www.pojo.biz/board/showthread.php?t=971899
