Notes & Combos

Came across someone in ladder using this variant and that inspired me to try it out. This is my take on EE Zoo.

The combo is:

1. Normal EE line into Rank 3 (in this case Invoker).
2. Use Invoker to summon a Zoodiac monster.
3. Go into Drident with the Zoo monster and Fortress with Invoker.
4. Add Armored Xyz cards with Fortress. Rank Fortress up into Lancer.
5. Use Drident to pop any card (you can use the xyz spell to give free fodder if Pareidolia or other stuff is not available to pop).
6. Rank Drident up into Chakanine, use Chak eff to revive Drident.
7. Rank Chak up into Tigermortar, use Tigermortar eff to eq mat to Drident.
8. On opp turn use Armored xyz trap to rank up Tiger into Drident.

5 interactions off one card is crazy, you still have the rest of the stuff in your hand as well. Any two EE starters/extenders can allow you to play through handtraps and even give you access to interactions through Machines or Retribution. Evil Eye plays around Maxx C pretty darn well, so if you need to pivot its not painful at all.

This ofc comes with some downsides, the main one being the number of bricks you play. The equips, Armored Xyz cards, and to a lesser extent Zoodiac cards are bricks for the main combo. Going second is a little rough, but I added 3 Evenly to try to help with that.
