General[]
Queen is the main antagonist of Deltarune Chapter 2.
In Undercards, she is a versatile and very powerful monster, able to temporarily turn a losing board into a winning one by capturing an enemy monster inside a Werewire with respectable stats.
Because of the way Catch cards work, Queen can reset any buffs of enemy monsters. This also the niche ability to counter cards that avoid Silence by raising their base stats, such as Demon Flowey or a Spear summoned by Undyne.
Queen fits into most decks, leaning slightly towards more offensive playstyles that can take advantage of her massive but temporary tempo swing. It should be noted that she does not have any particular synergy with Plugs, despite summoning a Werewire.
Synergies[]
Queen's Werewire can be Silenced, caught by another monster, or even returned to hand. In any of these cases the monster inside will be gone forever. Perseverance's spells Buttercup Treat and Proceed are particularly great for this, as in addition to Silence the Werewire also gets some beneficial effects (Candy or an extra attack respectively).
Counters[]
Cards that can summon an exact copy of Queen's Werewire will summon it with the monster still inside. It will still be released to the original owner's side, effectively doubling the captured monster.
Spade Chain is able to fully counter a Queen plus her Werewire and live at 5 HP. This is widely considered the best answer to a Queen.
Queen relies on her Taunt effect to protect the Werewire, which can be bypassed with any source of direct damage.
Trivia[]
- Queen Is The Only Card In The Game To Have All Of Its Text Capitalized. This Is A Reference To How Queen Usually Talks In Deltarune Chapter 2.
- Queen can sometimes "catch" dead monsters. This happens when she targets a Rapstablook that is about to die, as well as in a few other extremely rare cases.
