Notes & Combos

Quick DLv. MAX with Sky Striker. Going to do a Master I list as well, with some slight changes I made according to the decks I was meeting on ladder.

Once again, my list is a pretty standard going second list but I would like to explain a few card choices/ratios:

MAIN DECK
  • 2x Sky Striker Ace - Raye : I would assume that this comes as the biggest surprise in the main deck. I have never ran less than 3x Raye before, but I have to admit after testing it out, it feels correct. The worst hands in Striker are when you open multiple starters and drawing multiple Rayes feels awful. Also, when needing to draw good cards off Engage, Raye is usually the worst card to get off the bonus Engage draw.
  • 1x Surgical Striker - H.A.M.P. : This card comes up quite a bit. Helps with outting untargetable cards and is very nice to have against Voiceless Voice, which is a horrible matchup.
  • 2x Upstart Goblin - I've been switching this card out for Magnamhut and Druiswurm or Effect Veiler but I think I have found the most success with Upstart.
  • 2x Cosmic Cyclone - I've loved this card for a while now. Besides the obvious backrow removal, it's great against Snake-Eyes Fire King, Centurion, Tearlaments and the list goes on forever.

I was playing one copy of Cyanos for a while, but I decided to cut him because he is too vulnerable to handtraps.

EXTRA DECK

The extra deck is very straightforward at the moment. The card that comes up the least is probably the third Shizuku. If you find yourself getting Iblee locked, feel free to play a Linguriboh instead. Accesscode is also a reasonable alternative. Personally not a fan of TY-PHON.

I would also like to note something that many people seem to miss, Engage Zero is a Light ''Sky Striker Ace'' monster that works with Linkage for the extra 1000 ATK. Also, for the OTK line, when Roze is in your hand or banished, all you simply have to do is summon Engage Zero instead of Hayate.

(Raye-->Engage Zero-->Linkage-->Kagari-->Linkage)

Engage Zero is definitely underappreciated because a lot of people miss the lines where she comes up.
