Cosmos Ocean is a fan-made archetype that was created for YGOPro. This archetype contains a list of WATER monsters that work together on swarming the field and synchro summoning. The names of these cards are inspired by The 7 Spiritual Laws of Success. Most of the monster effects are related to one of the laws assigned to the card. Cosmos Ocean - Karma (card above) is an example of such:
When this card is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard: You can destroy the monster that destroyed it.
- Playing Style
- Members
Since they are all related by name, they all share very similiar effects. One Pendulum effect that all Cosmos Ocean cards share is the following:
You cannot Special Summon monsters, except WATER monsters.
The non-Synchro Pendulum Monsters share the following effect:
You can only control 1 "Cosmos Ocean - ###"
The Synchro Pendulum Monsters share the following effect:
If this card in the Monster Zone is destroyed: You can place this card in your Pendulum Zone.
The Fusion Pendulum Monsters share the following effect:
When this card is Fusion Summoned: You can equip 1 Level 1 WATER monster from your Deck or face-up from your Extra Deck to this card. This card gains ATK and DEF equal to the monster equipped by this effect. If this card would be destroyed while equipped with an WATER monster(s), you can destroy 1 of those cards instead.
As of the 1.3 update this archetype can be broken down into several different category of Monsters. Each category has their own strengths and weaknesses.
vs Fire First - 1.3 PATCH
- Strong swarming ability
- Multiple Synchro Summon combinations
- Can be played as a beatdown archetype
- Can counter beatdown decks
- Can outswarm other decks if needed
- Pendulum Summons are done with ease
- Snowballing is possible with the right combinations (see video)
- Cards rely on each other too much
- Limited salvaging mechanics
- Defense is a weakness and depends too much on Synchro Monsters
- Self-Destruction is a possibility, but is required if you want to use your Synchro Pendulum Monster effects.
- Despite some of the Synchro Monsters having strong Pendulum effects, it's a liability to get them in your Pendulum zone.
vs Majespecter - 1.3 PATCH
- Heavy beatdown potential
- Swarming ability
- Provides defense, something this archetype generally lacks
- Field control done with ease

- Cards that negate effects renders these cards useless
vs Mermail - 1.3 PATCH
This deck relies on the anime card Inland
Activate only if there is a face-up card in the Field Zone. Field Magic Cards are treated as "Umi". Reduce the Level of all WATER monsters in your hand and on your side of the field by 1.
- Cosmos Ocean spell cards provide amazing search capabilities

- Great field control
- Beatdown potential
- OTK Potentiality

vs Constellar - 1.4 PATCH
This deck relies on the Cosmos Ocean 1.4 card Cosmos Ocean - Moonlight Entrust
You can only control 1 face-up "Cosmos Ocean - Moonlight Entrust". When this card is activated, your opponent gains 2000 Life Points. Add 1 "Cosmos Ocean - Giving" from your Deck or face-up from your Extra Deck to your hand. While this card is face-up on the field, all Monsters in your Deck and in your hand are treated as WATER Monsters. If you control a "Cosmos Ocean - Self", this effect becomes active in the Graveyard. Once per turn while this card is in the Graveyard, you can target 1 monster you control; give control of it to your opponent and increase their Life Points by 500; add 1 Spell Card from your Graveyard to your hand.
- Dynamic handling against certain archetypes
- Freedom of using HERO Fusion monsters at ease.
