Notes & Combos

Decklist thoughts:

  • Contact C is my spice of life: it kills Kash, Exosisters, Branded, Mathmech and severely cripples Code Talkers, Swordsoul and the Vanquish Soul mirror match. Does nothing against Purrely, but that's fine because I saw 0 Purrely decks anyways. The only popular decks immune to Contact "C" are Labrynth and Dragon Link. 9/10 would recommend.
  • I don't recommend Extrav, banishing any of your rocks can be detrimental. Not worth it. Prosp is infinitesimally better.
  • Main banish targets with Prosp - Chaos Angel, Zoodiacs, Big Eye and Arise-Heart.
  • Big Eye never came up. Feel free to replace it with something else.
  • I don't like Small World, but that's preference. It goes -1 and can potentially banish important bridges (mainly Pantera). Also you search Razen 80% of the time anyway, which Durendal does for free.
  • Even if I had the dust, I would still only play 2x Mad Love. She's cute, but always searchable off of Razen and Jiaolong.
  • 3x Borger and 2x Valius. Dodging targeting is very important in meta right now.
  • Security Dragon is amazing against Bagooska and Scareclaw.
  • I play XYZ and Link toolbox over Saryuja. Even despite the brickiness of the deck, I would rather just play utility monsters than mulligan 3 cards.
  • Magnamhut searches Valius. Also either Bystial + Mad Love makes Chaos Angel, which does occasionally come up.
  • You can also play Ghost Belle, D Shifter, I'm just poor. D:
  • I do not recommend TCBOO. Would rather have more attributes in hand. Also does nothing in the mirror match.

Pros of this deck:

  • Every 2 turns, you activate Razen search, Jiaolong search and Borger draw twice. This deck pluses like crazy. It's like having 3x Heatsouls.
  • One of the few decks that doesn't immediately die to Lava Golem, because Continue and Snow Devil are both searchable special summons.
  • Razen, Mad Love, Pantera and Valius are ALL quick effect interactions on your opponent's turn.
  • Can hard summon Arise-Heart using Fenrir and Stake Your Soul.
  • Loses less to Maxx "C" than other decks. Also doesn't play into Nib or D Shifter very often.
  • Snow Devil is MVC (Most Valuable Card), just behind Razen. Summoning from hand + boardwipe kills many decks.

Cons of this deck:

  • Itself. This deck bricks HARD. You don't draw Razen 30% of the time, even with 3x Razen, 3x Stake Your Soul, 2x Durendal, 1x ROTA and 1x Prosp.
  • Droll & Lock Bird. It's worse to be hit by this than Maxx "C".

All in all extremely fun deck to play. 10/10
