Notes & Combos
My final climb with ABC... was a lucky one. I went first a majority of the time and didn't brick a lot (every time I did was with Union Driver tho, I hate that card). I've always loved the Union playstyle so I was stubborn about getting to M1 with ABC. These are my final thoughts.
PROS:
- Resilient to some handtraps like Ash and Imperm if you have a good hand. Reactivation can be a goated card if used defensively. Also doesn't care too much about Fuwalos, especially if you hard open a Therion card.
- One card combos work with X-Cross Cannon (thus, also with Union Activation and Small World) and Union Hangar. Two card combos include any Machine card plus Unauthorized Reactivation, and just any way to get B-Buster Drake and one more Machine on the field.
- If this deck goes uninterrupted or plays through the disruption, it's basically an FTK. I haven't lost a single game where I managed to build my board (Gryphon, Cyber Dragon Infinity, ABC, The Rabbit link, Azurune, Anti-Spell and sometimes Therion plus handtraps... too much)
- Really fun if you like long combos and a lot of bodies on the field to work with.
- Tons of animations LOL
CONS
- Maxx C is really good against this deck, you have to give them at least 2 draws for a single Rabbit, and then more for extra disruption.
- If you don't have extenders, a proper interruption on your starters ends your turn.
- Has many bricks (the Normal monster, Union Driver, some of the Unions by themselves)
- Can be easy to deal with in Turn 2 (just destroy, flip or return the X-Cross to the hand, and it's over most of the times)
I previously used Fiendsmith in this deck, but it's very restricting in the Extra Deck and also in your field, sometimes there was just no space left to summon more bodies. I genuinely feel a more pure version is easier to pilot and basically has a similar power level.
Good luck to my Union bros :)
Replays

First replay is a grindy game against Tenpai. Pretty cool even if my opponent did misplay (rogue decks rely on that tbf)
Second replay is the uninterrupted combo with Union Hangar.
There are two more games there; cool replays against Fuwaloss. Hope you like them.
