Notes & Combos
-
Harmonizing Magician and Oafdragon Magician are optional: I personally felt my deck was consistent enough but you can easily opt for consistency options such as Wings of Light or Dragon Shrine, more hand traps or simply no cards to reduce the deck total to 40
-
Crystal Clear Wing Synchro Dragon fulfills the requirement for Supreme King Gate Magician SS. However, there are more optimal ones such as Odd-Eyes Rebellion Xyz Dragon and Clear Wing Synchro Dragon as you can actually use them in specific situations.
-
Summon Bagooska if opponent uses Maxx-C and you have no response for it: this would likely be made from a NS level 4 and SS Supreme King Dragon Darkwurm from the graveyard. It will buy you an extra turn at the very minimum.
-
Ideally, you would want to summon Apollousa befoare you pendulum summon to negate a Nibiru. Thankfully you can easily do this by having variations of Wisdom, Double Iris, Astrograph, Supreme King Gate Magician, etc, in your hand. Generally it would go:
-
Summon 1 and 2: Two pendulum monsters from a NS and/or SS via Supreme King Gate Magician, Supreme King Dragon Darkwurm, Astrograph
-
Summon 3: Link Summon Electrumite
-
Summon 4: SS Astrograph from Electrumite pop (on Double Iris); Astrograph search for second Double Iris
-
Summon 5: Link Summon Exceed the Pendulum - return Astrograph (or any monster) from Extra Deck to Hand
-
Summon 6: Place second Double Iris you searched from Astrograph effect onto scale, then SS Astrograph (or any other monster) with Exceed the Pendulum effect
-
Summon 7: Link Summon Apollousa
-
-
Worst case, if your opponent Nibiru's Exceed the Pendulum and other monster, you will still have a pendulum summon
-
Your end board would ideally have the following interruptions:
- Apollousa monster negate
- Apollousa monster negate
- Barrone/Borreload omni-negate
- Odd-eyes Vortex Dragon omni-negate
- Time Pendulumgraph target and destroy a card
- Masquerena to go into Little Knight that targets and banishes a card
- Little Knight target and banish one monster you control and one monster your opponent controls until End Phase
On top of all that, you could have an additional Magician on the field that could be used alongside Masquerena and Time Pendulumgraph for non-targeting, non-destruction removal and any hand traps that you drew from turn 1 that would serve as additional interruptions.
