Notes & Combos

New engine, same Dragon Link

• Black Metal Dragon as usual is the MVP normal summon of the deck
• Stand-Up Centur-Ion/Emblema Oath: The purpose of these cards in the deck is to get you access to 2 dragons so you can combo. Generally what you'll do is place Primera, add Gargoyle with Primera, summon Gargoyle by sending the field spell, make Auxila and add back Gargoyle. I like Phalax in the deck because you can pitch it off of Ravine and use it to revive Auxila to get more link material or to use its end-phase effect or trigger it's on-summon effect on a different turn.
• Starliege Seyfert: The best part of the Centur-Ion package is that it makes Seyfert a very good normal summon again. Gargoyle's effect to add back means if you have Stand-Up/Emblema + Seyfert then you can get Auxila + Bystial Lubellion. Seyfert is also very versatile in searching bystials by pitching a lvl 6 or Levianeer by pitching an 8 if you already have Lubellion access.

There's no denying that the deck's much weaker after all the hits but I think the Centur-Ion cards actually do bring this deck's power level up quite a bit than before. The combo also gets a lot better when Atrii releases giving the Centur-Ion cards a way to access a lvl 4 without needing to have a 2-card combo.

Your match-ups in the meta aren't terrible but they're not fantastic either. SEFK is probably the hardest match-up but Yubel and VV seem to be more popular given they're the newer toys and that is good for DLink and your main deck Bystials.

I was playing the Vision Resonator package but decided to cut it half-way through the climb and didn't miss it. I still think it's decent in a build without Centur-Ion but you just don't need both of them. Similarly upped Baldrake from 1 to 3 during the climb to see Bystials more often against the decks they were impactful against. Nib didn't feel great in the meta, probably gonna cut down to 1. Would love to play Phantazmay but in a bo1 just not worth it to me.

TL;DR: If you like Dragon Link, try out a version of this list.
