Introduction

Hello, I'm Epicbro-(Mirces) . If you consistently read MDM guides, then you are probably familiar with me from the Tachyon and Pendulum magician guide (that aged). Well, this time I am back with a personal favorite, a deck or decks that introduced me to the Yu-Gi-Oh anime, which eventually led me into being introduced to the TCG itself: Onomats and Utopia.

This guide will only talk about pure Onomats and Utopia, so no Ryzeal stuff or other mixtures.

Hopefully once you're done reading this whole guide or certain parts, you can have a good and potentially improved understanding of the decks. But with that out of the way, let's GOGOGO start getting into the good stuff.

About The Decks

Utopia

General Information About The Deck: A deck that uses rank-4 spams like the Onomats to Xyz summon various rank-4, Utopia, Utopic, and Number Xyz monsters and makes big endboards, enough that some people just scoop right on the spot.

Improvements: Most of the endboard and extra deck cards remain the same; however, with the new support, the deck can play around, play through, and recover a lot better than before. Alongside not having to play bricks in order to make the deck work. The decks gogogo going 2nd ability is also significantly better since it doesn't auto-lose to 1-2 distribution for the most part; of course, it's still best to go 1st with the deck.

Onomat

General Information About The Deck: If you know this deck from Duel Links, then you know. But this deck focuses on summoning generic Xyz monsters, alongside with the Utopic monsters.

Improvements: This deck can finally hold its own and be a good deck without the Utopia cards. It has the same improvements as Utopia. Something that might interest you about this deck more than Utopia is that you don't just burn through 12-15 of your extra deck cards and only have 3 or fewer extra deck cards by doing 1 combo. On average this deck has around 5-7 cards left in the extra deck after doing 1 combo. Which means those leftover spots could be more flex spots, so it opens the rooms to more ideas and variation you can do with the deck, unlike Utopia.

Main Deck

Core cards

Gogogo Goblindbergh

A new 1-card starter and an extender that the deck got, which is also the best 1-card starter out of the 3 new 1-card starters that this deck has received due to what cards it can search, what end boards it can make, and being able to play through certain handtraps more than the other new 1-card starters.

It has an effect that can summon a Gogogo monster from basically anywhere except the banish zone. The main targets to summon off of this effect are Loading... and Loading... . In some combos you might summon a Loading... if you are playing it. Which all makes this card a 1-card Xyz play. Dododo, do keep in mind that you can only use this effect only when normal summoned, so this probably gives it away that this is not only your go-to normal summon of the deck but also the monster that you always want to use your normal summon on. You can almost always achieve this; the only way you can't achieve this is if you started the combo with Loading... .

This card also has a 2nd effect: once you detach this card by an Xyz monster's effect as an Xyz material, you can add a Dododo monster from the deck to your hand. You typically add a Loading... or Loading... with this effect. You sometimes add a Loading... in certain lines or in specific situations, as this isn't really the card you want to search Loading... with.

Dodododo Warrior

The 2nd new 1-card starter and extender that the deck got, which is the 2nd best 1-card starter out of the 3 new 1-card starters, mainly due to it not always being able to play through certain handtraps on the same level of Loading... , but can still make the exact same or really similar end boards to Loading... .

This card is basically a Loading... for the deck, as it can send a Dododo monster from the deck to the GY to special summon itself. Your main targets are Loading... and Loading... , as those 2 cards help make this a 1-card Xyz since they can special summon themselves from the GY. You also send Loading... if you already have both Loading... and Loading... in the GY, and at times you send a copy of itself if you run out of targets besides itself in the deck.

Similar to the 2nd effect of Loading... , but instead of adding a Dododo monster, you add a Zubaba monster with this effect. You typically add a Loading... or Loading... with this effect. Depending on the combo you are doing, you can also add a Loading... for further extension for said combo or in specific situations.

Note: A little ruling with this card to keep in mind is that if this card has its effect negated face-up on the field by cards like Loading... and Loading... , this card reverts back to a level 6 instead of being a level 4 with its effect.

Zubababa Knight

The final new 1-card starter and extender that the deck got it is the 3rd best 1-card starter out of the 3, but despite being able to start combos with this card, this card is better used as an extender for this deck, as not only are you competing for a normal summon with this card and Loading... (which is the better normal summon), but also this card can't always make the exact or similar end boards as the other 2 1-card starters since its resources and extension are much more limited than the other 2 starters.

On summon you can add a Zubaba monster from the deck; your main target for this effect is Loading... , and if you already have or used Loading... , you can add a Loading... or Loading... instead, which can be used as discard fodder for Loading... if you are playing it or for the Loading... special summon effect if you haven't used it yet.

A 2nd part of this effect is that you can destroy a 4 or lower DEF position monster, which is the effect that is almost never used; however, it doesn't mean it can't come in clutch.

This also has a similar 2nd effect of Loading... and Loading... ; the only difference is that you add a Gagaga monster with this effect. You typically add a Loading... , and at times you add a Loading... and Loading... with this effect. In certain combos this is when you add a Loading... if you are playing it.

Gagaga Ganbara Knight

Out of the 5 new main deck monsters, this is one of the 2 cards that is not a starter for the deck; instead, it's just an extender for this deck.

By revealing a Gagaga extra deck monster, you can summon it alongside a Gagaga monster in hand. As for what Gagaga monsters you will be revealing with this effect, you will find out in the "Extra Deck" section since those Gagaga monsters you play will play a role in this deck, which isn't just for this card. Also, for what to summon alongside this card's special summon effect, it really just depends on your hand; you might find yourself summoning this card alongside Loading... , Loading... , or a 2nd copy of itself if you are playing more than 1, or just by itself.

The 2nd part of this effect is the option to change the battle position of a monster on the field doesn't really come up that often, but it can definitely come in handy here and there.

Just like the previous cards mentioned before, this card also has a similar 2nd effect as those but instead searches for a Gogogo monster; you typically add a Loading... and sometimes add a Loading... or Loading... . Or even a Loading... if you are playing it.

The ratios of this card could vary, but as someone who is learning the deck, having 2 copies is the sweet spot, and even if you're not learning the deck, having that additional copy can definitely come in handy. You can only play 1 copy if you are experienced with the deck, and playing 3 copies isn't always a bad thing, as it increases your chances of seeing an extender more.

Onomatokage

The last new main deck monster for the deck, just like Loading... , this card is not a starter but rather an extender for the deck, with the addition also being a recursion card for the deck. It's also another reason why those 3 new 1-card starters are 1-card starters since not only can it be searched by those 3 cards due to it counting as all of the names, but this card is also a good discard target for Loading... since it has the ability to be able to special summon itself from the GY if you control any of the 4 names.

As mentioned before, this card is also a recursion card for the deck, as it can recycle back 2 of your Xyz monsters that are in the GY, which is a boost for the deck, as now it has a better grind game and better follow-up since you have ways to recycle back those extra deck cards you need to keep up with your opponent.

Playing 2 copies of this card is usually enough since having 2 opportunities to be able to recycle back extra deck cards is already enough. Playing 3 feels unnecessary for me personally, but if you constantly find that you want to have a 3rd copy of this card in your duels, then feel free too.

Dodododwarf Gogogoglove

One of the older onomat monsters you would play, which still has an important role in this deck as it provides extension for the deck.

Outside of Loading... , Loading... , and Loading... (which isn't core), this card serves as a good target for Loading... 's and Loading... 's 1st effect compared to the pack of Dododo and Gogogo monsters in the game, as it can special summon itself from the GY if you control a Dododo or Gogogo monster on the field. Which you can already tell is a good effect to be able to have.

Instead of being able to recycle back cards like Loading... , this card lets you special summon an Zubaba or Gagaga monster from hand, which, as you know, provides extra extension of the deck. Assuming that you did not start your combo with Loading... , this is one of the 2 main ways you special summon Loading... in the combo.

Zubababancho Gagagacoat

The 2nd one out of the 3 old onomats you would play, which has a role in the deck as an extender.

This card is basically why Loading... is even played in the deck; it's just a really good extender if you have the setup of controlling a Zubaba or Gagaga monster on the field to be able to special summon itself from hand, which is really easy to pull off. This card can also special summon back a Dododo or Gogogo monster from the GY. Combine that with its hand special summon effect, and it's basically a double body for free.

Keeping these effects in mind in the mid and grind game if you still have access of this card its basically like a Loading... a 1 card double Xyz assuming that you have Loading... , Loading... , and another target for this card already in the GY, which is a setup which will almost always happen once your done with combo.

Playing 1 copy of this card is the go-to, but playing 2 copies of this card isn't a bad choice. If being able to be a 1-card double Xyz in the mid- or grind game intrigues you and it's something that you might want to have, then feel free to play 2 copies.

Utopic Onomatopoeia

The last one out of the 3 old onomats you would play still has a role in the deck as an extender.

Out of all of the extenders in this deck, this card is probably the one with the most setup (doesn't mean it's hard to achieve), as you need to have it on the field to be able to use this card's main effect. This card also can't special summon itself, so you have to try summoning this card through other ways, which you can definitely work around since this card is just like Loading... as it is treated as all of the 4 archetypal names.

As for its main effect, you can special summon up to 1 of each of the 4 names with different archetypal names (cards like Loading... , Loading... , and Loading... bypass this as they are treated as multiple names, not just 1), which provides further extension to your combos and sometimes makes your end board slightly stronger since it can at times help provide the extension needed for that extra disruption.

Onomatopaira

This card helps you get access to the best starters and extenders for the deck, as you get to search for both extenders, both starters, or 1 extender and starter. Whether you start off your combo with this card or search for it later in the combo. This card still does wonders.

Onomatopickup

Just like Loading... , this card also serves as a way to gain access to the best starters and extenders for the deck because it's basically more copies of Loading... . Which has the additional option to search Loading... or Loading... instead of Loading... , this comes up in certain combos.

This card can also do level manipulation, which basically helps you Xyz summon to your rank 4s with non-level 4 monsters, or if you're playing this card with Loading... , any Xyz monster that has a rank from 1 to 8.

The reason why 3 isn't always the standard ratio is because of the following:

Fear of Loading... : as if you search Loading... and get hit with Loading... , your turn is going to come to an end real fast.
If you run out of Loading... somehow or barely have targets left in the deck, this card won't be as effective as it would be in the early game.

Main Deck - Core cards

Combine this with the onomat main deck core and extra deck core, and boom, you've got the core of the Utopia deck.

ZS - Ascended Sage

Formally a 3 of in the deck but with the latest support this card is now a 1 of in this deck.

Unlike his brother Loading... , this card still makes the cut for this deck. As it's the bridge between the onomats and utopia. Since it helps you get access to Loading... , whenever you use this card as an Xyz material for a Utopia monster, most of the time you use it to make Loading... , Loading... , and sometimes Loading... . Having more copies of this card isn't necessary since the deck has multiple ways to extend with the onomat engine alone, and you only really use its effect once per duel since you play 1 Rank-Up-Magic normal spell card in the standard way to play.

Hyper Rank-Up-Magic Utopiforce

This card is basically the only reason why Loading... is still a must play in this deck.

This card helps you summon out your boss monster Loading... by using a rank 4 utopia monster.

This card also has synergy with Loading... , as whenever you summon an Xyz monster with the Loading... effect, you can make it live by attaching this card to that Xyz monster as an Xyz material, causing its effect to be live now if it required an Xyz material to use its effect.

Extra Deck - Core cards

Number 39: Utopia

Our homie Loading... still gets to see play, just mainly to be used to summon your Xyz fodder cards, trigger the effect of Loading... , and sometimes for a Loading... play.

Xyz Fodder

These 2 cards are your Xyz fodder cards, basically to try to help summoning Loading... with 4 materials so you can use its effect twice. Since using just Loading... will only be 3 materials (2 overlay units, and Loading... will be the 3rd).

Honestly, you should just be playing Loading... over Loading... since it got the extra 10 ATK points since sometimes that can help getting over 2500 ATK point monsters. The effect of Loading... and Loading... is really cool, but it will almost never happen in these days. But if you want to play Loading... instead, go ahead; I won't stop you.

Be sure to ONLY play 1 of the 2, NOT both, because playing both is just a waste of extra deck space since they are "one-and-done" type of cards.

ZS - Utopic Sage

Well, as you know, Loading... bridges the onomats and Utopia. Well, you might be wondering if Loading... is the bridge, then what glues the bridge? And the answer is this card. As you can use this card's 1st effect to special summon Loading... from the deck. This card is another reason why Loading... can be played at one since you don't have to hard draw it to make your Utopia plays; you can just pull it out of the deck with this card.

This card has a protection effect on the field and GY to protect the destruction of Utopia and Utopic by banishing itself. With that in mind, you will most likely have this card under your Loading... or Loading... . So whenever you use either of those 2 effects, you want to detach this card to get it in the GY as soon as possible to gain its protection effect. Or you can have its protection effect immediately if you send for Loading... 's effect. You will see how to do this in the "Combos - Utopia" section.

Number 99: Utopia Dragonar

The boss monster for this deck. You ideally want to summon this card with 4 Xyz materials so you can get the best value off of this card, which can be easily done since Loading... will have 2 Xyz materials, then rank it up into an Xyz fodder, which will have 3, and then when you summon this card, it will have 4 Xyz materials.

Keeping that in mind, what makes this card powerful is that it allows you to summon almost any 2 number monsters in the game of your choice one during your turn and one during your opponent's turn. As you probably know, they are really good Xyz monsters, well. As for which numbers to summon you will refer to the "Loading... Targets."

Still a great card overall, but since I am not willing to sugarcoat any information about this card, I will mention that despite you being able to reduce the attack points of an attacking monster to 0, once you use its main effect to summon 2 different numbers, the value of this card decreases as it won't be doing anything significant alongside this card clogging your boards in a way when it comes to certain combos. A common example of this happening is you being unable to use the Loading... activation effect since it requires an empty main monster zone, but it's already full, so that just removes 1 free disruption, and most likely the Loading... will be the only monster on your field other than Loading... , not providing any valuable form of disruption.

Loading... Targets

As the title of this section says, these cards are Loading... targets; the cards listed here are the ones that stand out the most and are worth talking about from the numbers between 1-100. In terms of how many cards you should play in this section, your best bet is 2; sometimes it could be 3 with some exceptions. These targets are going to be ranked from A tier to D tier based on how viable the choices are and least consumption in extra deck space.

A Tier = Go to choices, always viable whether you go 1st or 2nd and only takes up 1 extra deck space MAX.

B Tier = Not always the go-to choices, since they have a slight downside to them, which might be a turnoff, but those downsides aren't really detrimental and are still pretty valuable cards overall. Does not really take up lots of extra deck space; at most it will take 2 extra deck slots, but that will only be Loading... in this section.

C Tier = Not go to choices, mainly used to counter specific meta decks which warps the format into a 1-2 deck format. Or just meta decks in general that you see way too much while playing the ladder.

D Tier = Not always viable, these cards can make your chances of winning go higher when you go 1st, but in exchange, they do require a hefty amount of resources in the extra deck to pull off, which is not something that you always want to aim for in this deck since the extra deck is very tight. Pretty much narrowing what the deck can do even further.

A Tier

Number 38: Hope Harbinger Dragon Titanic Galaxy

Number 69: Heraldry Crest - Dark Matter Demolition

Loading... - Mainly will be used to negate spell cards and redirect attack to protect your weaker monsters.

Loading... - Mainly will be used as a monster negate, which can negate a monster effect anywhere, not just the field.

Loading... - Mainly will be used as a monster negate; can only negate monster effects on the field, but in exchange this card can make the negated monster's ATK points become 0, alongside this card being able to do double attack and piercing, which can make OTKing a lot easier.

Loading... - Mainly will be used as a monster negate, just like Loading... ; it can only negate monster effects on the field, but in exchange it's more difficult to out since it can't be destroyed by battle or card effect, alongside it making a monster "unknown," which definitely messes up some plays at times.

B Tier

Number 69: Heraldry Crest - Shatter Stream

Number 23: Lancelot, Dark Knight of the Underworld

Loading... - Mainly used as a whole board cleaner once your opponent is done with their turn, which can be a good card to summon against decks like stun.

Loading... - Mainly used to provide more layers to your disruption since it makes it so that Loading... is a pop and a monster negate alongside it having 2 Xyz material instead of just 1.

Loading... - Basically a Loading... , but you go minus 1 to use its effect alongside it being pretty ugly (if you get the YGO Zexal manga reference, then you know). Despite being ugly and going minus 1, it definitely is still good, as it can negate traps like Loading... , something that the A-tier cards can't do.

Loading... - Unlike Loading... this card does not have to go minus 1 to negate but in exchange it is a mandatory negate which can also negate your cards too so be careful when you choose to summon this card. It can also pop monsters whenever it inflects battle damage which can help with pushing for lethal.

C Tier

Loading... - Basically a free monster remover every turn alongside being able to change the attribute of all monsters on the field to water, which can be really significant in certain metas.

Loading... - You would basically play this card to hard counter certain meta decks, as it can help you summon floodgate monsters, which can shut down the meta deck plays completely.

Loading... - Similar purpose to Loading... , but instead of summoning a floodgate monster, you want to try ripping out a valuable 1 of extra deck monster that a meta deck can't really recycle and can't go too far without. Alongside it being an Xyz monster which can pack a punch (seriously).

Loading... - Basically a floodgate for certain decks, as it prevents decks that need to summon monsters from the GY from keeping or getting their plays going. Alongside gaining some protection when you use this effect, which makes it harder to out. Also keep in mind using this effect is a lingering effect.

D Tier

Number 81: Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Super Dora

Loading... - A walking Loading... which will be layered with other cards, making it more difficult to get out for your opponent. Do keep it if you want to play this card; you must play Loading... and Loading... to make its Loading... effect live. You will see how to do this in the "Combos - Utopia" section.

Loading... - This troll card is basically just used to do an FTK combo when you combine it with Loading... and a card that increases your LP based on the monster you sent for that card, like Loading... . You will also see how to do this combo in the "Combos - Utopia" section.

Loading... - A nice OTK addition that you can make with the deck as it will always have lots of ATK points since you will be summoning it from Loading... , which at minimum is going to be a 13000 ATK point gain. Also used in the FTK combo.

Loading... - A card that can make a monster you control unaffected by card effects. You can combo this card with Loading... , basically ensuring that you can remove all of your opponent's cards during their end phase. In addition, this card gives you the option to make Loading... , which can be a pretty sacky card depending on the number of monsters your opponent has on their field.

Loading... - You would only play this card if you want to do the Loading... and Loading... combo or a classic summoning Loading... to make it so that Loading... can increase its minimum ATK gain from 13000 to 21000 ATK points.

Optional Cards

Number 39: Utopia Rising

With the new support, the extra deck gets tighter and tighter since there are more options at your disposal, which can be played over this card, it comes to the point that this card isn't always played. Another reason why this card isn't required anymore is the release of Loading... ; the deck has better recovery whenever the board gets broken without needing this card.

However, this card still has space in the deck if you choose to play it, as it's a pretty solid option to go for when you get hit with Loading... on the Loading... summon. Even outside of Loading... , it's another recovery option that you have.

Another thing you can do with this card is summon this card off of Loading... and use it to summon Loading... or send it to the GY with Loading... (this is to try removing it from the field) in exchange for having 1 less disruption in order to be able to play through powerful board breakers like Loading... , as if your opponent doesn't get rid of the Loading... and get rid of your other cards (assuming that this card gets sent to the GY). You can basically re-establish your board, as you can just use Loading... to special summon another number monster in the extra deck, which will trigger the GY effect of this card to special summon itself. Then you can Ch1 this card, targeting a number monster in your GY of choice, and then Ch2 the GY effect of Loading... , attaching it to this card to ensure that whatever monster you bring back from the GY will have its effect live.

Double or Nothing! Package

Same situation as Loading... the extra deck gets tighter and tighter since there are more options at your disposal, which can be played over Loading... alongside there just being additional core extra deck cards. As this card isn't necessary for the combo anymore, as you would mainly use it in the main combo to dodge Loading... or Loading... , trying to negate the Loading... effect that Loading... gained, but with the addition of Loading... , you no longer need to worry about those cards messing you up. Or just for its simple OTK. Another reason why this package is not required anymore is just the current state of the game; decks these days focus on having lots of 1-card combos with little to no bricks, and if your deck can do that, then you might as well. Even if it's lame, like cutting out Loading... .

However, this package still has a space in the deck if you choose to play it, though you will just mainly use it for its OTK aspect rather than dodging Loading... and Loading... in your combos. Which can most definitely save you from having to do nearly all the combo steps of this deck just to OTK your opponent.

A Neat Combo You Can Do With This Card combined with Loading... : Once you get access to the Loading... , activate the Loading... by targeting Loading... . Now this is when you chain Loading... to this to special summon Loading... with 6000 ATK points. Then activate Loading... to special summon Loading... . Now activate the Loading... GY effect, then do the double or nothing OTK from there, which will have a Loading... with 12000 ATK points. This makes it so that the bare minimum ATK points needed to do the one shot will be 4000 or less instead of 2000 or less if you were to do the combo with just Loading... .

Number S39: Utopia the Lightning

If you don't like tower-like monsters (I don't either, it's ok it's a no-judgment-free zone here), then this card might fit to your liking. Having this card with layers of protections, such as having destruction protection from Loading... and targeting protection from Loading... , alongside it having an effect to become 5000 ATK points when it battles, makes it almost guaranteed for you to be able to get rid of any tower monsters your opponent throws at you. Even for non-tower purposes, it can help push for lethal and disable your opponent from activating a card or an effect until the end of the damage step, which can definitely come in clutch sometimes.

No longer played

Ultimate Leo Utopia Ray

Still a really powerful card, especially combined with Loading... and other ZW monsters, but at the cost of such power, you have to play bricks, which are the ZW monsters, and if you don't play them, then this card is useless, and as you know, the goal is to reduce the amount of bricks you have to play so this deck has a chance to compete in the current meta. So if you have to play brick(s) just to make this card work, then it's best that you don't play it. The only time I can recommend playing this card is if you are on a budget or just trying to get a feel for how this deck plays without spending too much currency. Other than that, don't bother with this card.

ZW Monsters

These cards are the viable targets that you would use on Loading... to get that Loading... monster negate alongside some additional bonuses. But as mentioned before, these cards are bricks, especially the Loading... and Loading... ; they are the worst to see among this list of ZW monsters since you can't even equip them to a Utopia monster if they're in your hand unless your LP is 2000 lower than your opponent's. You want to have the smallest amount of bricks as possible, so unfortunately these cool weapons have to go.

Loading... - Unlike his brother Loading... , he does not make the cut for the deck anymore. You would play this card to search for the ZW monsters, which makes your end board stronger in some way, or just use it as an extra extender, but now with the cut of Loading... and the ZW monsters themselves, alongside this deck being able to extend more with just the onomat cards, there is just no more use for this card in the deck.

Loading... - You would basically use this card as a 2nd way to summon Loading... , which could also set up ZW equip combinations for your Loading... if you were playing more than 1 ZW monster. But just like the same situation as Loading... , since Loading... will be cut out, there will be no point in playing this card in the deck since the other rank 5 Utopia monsters aren't anywhere near the same level as Loading... .

Xyz Change Tactics

This card is a win more card, as it requires a hefty amount of setup to make it work, as it requires you to be able to summon your Utopia monsters alongside you already having access to Loading... if you are playing it since you should not be searching for this card over Loading... , since that card provides more value than this card to your end boards. Even if you would play this card in a standard Utopia list, you will be drawing 3, sometimes 4, but the more bad Utopia monsters and bricks you play, the more value you gain off of this card, which is a pretty bad exchange. Despite you even getting at least 3 draws, there is still a chance you can whiff with this card and not draw into any handtraps (which will be the only reason why you even play this card after the new support) and instead just drawing more follow-up cards than you already have in your hand. Which in the old way to play wasn't a problem since the deck's follow-up was abysmal, but now it's much better and no longer required. Even for the purpose of drawing handtraps post-support, you can play over 10 non-engine, so you can just play lots of handtraps if you really want to have a handtrap in your hand. Pretty much making this card useless to play and best to not play at all.

Numbers Protection

This card got powercreeped by Loading... , simply because it can negate and has the option to destroy other cards on the field instead of the negated one if necessary. Alongside its requirements being slightly easier to do, as it doesn't require you to have an number Xyz monster to use its effect. Alongside its GY effect being live on the same turn you use its field, while Loading... , you can only use 1 effect of the card in 1 turn, not both, and the second effect is almost irrelevant; it happens once in a blue moon.

You will or probably have seen at least one player playing both this card and Loading... . I won't say that's not a theory since it can work in the TCG and OCG formats due to being able to side them in when going 1st and side them out when going 2nd. But since this is Master Duel, you shouldn't really do this since you will have more bricks, which is something that we want to avoid, especially if you can't side it out. It's definitely more of an win more strategy; playing the Loading... is usually enough for the most part if you use your negates correctly and are not just pressing the "yes button."

Extra Deck

All of the cards listed in this whole section apply to both decks unless the description says otherwise.

Core cards

Gagagaga Girl

This card gets the deck on the road with the combos, as this card is another reason why Loading... , Loading... , and Loading... are good 1-card combos, as this card lets you search for a Xyz, Onomat, or Gagaga card, which you typically add a Loading... or Loading... if you started the combo with either of those 3 starters or Loading... if you started the combo with Loading... or Loading... . Sometimes you add a Loading... with this effect, but you only do so if you have the resources to make Loading... with the extension after making it while playing around Loading... .

This card can also make a utopic monster do a double attack whenever this card is used to summon a utopic monster, which can help with pushing for lethal. A funny thing you can do with this is make Loading... and use the Loading... to attack into any 2 monsters to take control of them and attack with them. Which can come up in clutch when you try playing around those "when sent to the GY or destroyed" effects.

Gagagaga Magician

As you know, this card brings back Xyz monsters from the GY with their effects negated. This effect can come in handy when you need to special summon back your Loading... to be able to make Loading... or any Xyz monster to make any of your utopic monsters, alongside this effect helping to give that additional push for lethal.

With the release of Loading... , the 2nd effect of this card becomes much more useful, as having a utopic monster that can attack twice alongside an Xyz monster with 4000 ATK points is most likely a recipe for success.

Number F0: Utopic Future Zexal

A new boss monster that the deck got, which is slightly easier to summon than Loading... , as you can also use number monsters to Xyz summon this card, which can be convenient at times, especially after getting hit with Loading... .

This card is really insane, as your opponent can't target anything but this card, not theirs or your cards, just this one. Which can mess up certain decks' combos, protect floodgates, and make you immune to cards like Loading... and Loading... . You can also combine this with a card that makes it so that you cannot target this card by card effects, which makes it so that your opponent straight-up can't target anything on the field.

This card also has a Quick-Effect Loading... -like effect with an additional bonus, which makes it even harder to get rid of this card since it will have lots of ATK points alongside it and also being unable to be destroyed by your opponent's card effect or battle. If your opponent disrespects this card, they will get humbled real fast by this card's power.

Number F0: Utopic Draco Future Package

This deck can easily spam the board with non-number rank 4 Xyz monsters that aren't necessary after you use their effect, which is where this card can come in handy. So you can use those 2 monsters to make Loading... and then use Loading... to make Loading... . Another reason why this package is a must is because you can make Loading... very early in your combos, which means you have an early form of disruption that can be used whenever needed.

Number 60: Dugares the Timeless

This card helps you extend your combos further whether you got hit with an HT or not, alongside it allowing you to be able to search for follow-up cards instead of the non-follow-up cards just so you can keep going with the combo. As you typically use its 2nd effect to summon a monster from the GY. However, the Pot of Greed and Double ATK Point effects do come up often in order to possibly draw for more non-engine or to close out duels.

As you all probably know, with using the 2nd effect of this card, your Main Phase is skipped, but for the most part that won't really matter since whenever you make a board with this deck, for the most part your opponent won't be able to break it, and even if they do, they will typically have little to no resources left, so when it's back to your turn, you can reestablish somewhat of your broken board again, and you will mostly likely win from there.

Gagaga Cowboy

Disclaimer: we are not using this card for the "gagaga cowboy for game" aspect unfortunately, but it still could happen though. Instead we are just using it for the instant detaching aspect, with the addition of not having to play certain cards for it to work or a specific setup other than summoning this card in DEF mode turn 1 for ruling purposes just to be able to detach an Xyz material. Having the ability to instantly detach a monster is significantly helpful in this deck's combo since it can trigger the 2nd effects of the following:

Which are necessary to keep the combo going. Alongside this card being another target that you can reveal with the Loading... effect, especially if you already used Loading... in the combo.

Optional Cards

All of the cards listed here are pretty much generic Xyz monsters but provides more value to the deck.

Traptrix Rafflesia Package

The main purpose of this package is to allow the deck to be able to stop Loading... from shutting down your turn, which does the job quite well. As if you have a way to summon this card before you start searching, you, my friend are in the winning spot. Can also stop Loading... but that is not a big deal for the most part if you play this deck correctly.

The 2nd use of this package for the deck can just be another form of disruption, a monster that can negate monsters from the hand or GY by sending a Loading... , or if you want to have more options, you can play Loading... to make it a mini Loading... .

Full Armor Xyz Package

This package leans more towards onomats since Utopia doesn't have the extra deck capacity to fit all of this. But with that out of the way, this package provides a higher ceiling for the deck if summoning rank 4 Xyz monsters is not fully cutting it due to there not being that many good rank 4 Xyz monsters that serve as good disruption in the current card pool. One neat thing that this package also provides for the deck is if you are playing Loading... and used its omni negate effect and it's still in your GY, you can use Loading... to add it back since it is an "Xyz" card.

If you want, you can also play Loading... if you want to lower the chances of not being able to use Loading... for an Xyz summon due to you not being able to use its effect since you already have Loading... in hand, but I honestly don't think it is necessary to play Loading... since that just adds on an extra brick that you don't want to see in your opening hand.

D/D/D Duo-Dawn King Kali Yuga Package

The Phantom Knights' Rank-Up-Magic Launch

This package leans more towards Utopia than onomats since there are more layers in protecting the lock and successfully resolving the Loading... lock. But do I need to say more about what this package does? I mean, we all know it's a turn skip. I will mention that this package did get buffed, as with the new support, it solves the 2 issues that this package had.

One of the issues is your opponent getting rid of your set Loading... before it reaches your main phase. An example card that can ruin the lock is Loading... , but thanks to Loading... , you don't have to worry about cards like these since they target, and the common way to prevent the lock by removing the Loading... has to target.

The 2nd issue was your opponent just tributing your Loading... or any rank 7 dark Xyz monster you control, which can work with Loading... for a kaiju or Loading... . But if Loading... is still on your field, you can use its effect to special summon Loading... , use Loading... to reborn Loading... , then activate Loading... , and boom, you got the lock. This is why I highly recommend playing Loading... if you want to play this package.

Goblin Biker Big Gabonga Package

This package basically gives you more ways of getting access to Loading... , but with the addition of being able to force out some disruption, especially if you are playing Loading... or Loading... alongside the Loading... (more about this card will be discussed in the tech section).

If you would like to play this package, make sure you play Loading... at 3. I put it as a 0-3 just to remind you guys it's an optional card in the deck.

Starliege Photon Blast Dragon

Probably familiar with this card because of Ryzeal, but this card can be easily made, which can easily get the Loading... lock to be live, in which your opponent can't target anything on the field, not their cards, not your cards. With the benefit of not having to spend too many resources or changing up your combo to add cards like Loading... just to make that lock. Alongside adding more protection to Loading... lock since it can prevent it from being destroyed by card effects, which eliminates the pressure of using Loading... 's effect just to not be destroyed by card effects.

Gallant Granite

You used to use this card in this deck to search for Loading... to provide extra extension to your plays. Well, it's no longer the case since this deck extension is significantly better than before. With that being said, you can use this card as an instant detacher just like Loading... but with the addition of being able to search the following:

If you want, you can play this card over Loading... since they both still play as an instant detacher for the decks, but this card can also be your go-to target if you get hit with Loading... or Loading... , and if you feel like opting out of the challenge, as it can search a Loading... in under 3 special summons. Since Loading... is banned, this is a coping way to play around Loading... and Loading... , but hey, there aren't really any good options that this deck has to defend against Loading... or Loading... .

Note: Just as long as you have an instant detacher, whether it's this card Loading... or something else, it's fine. Also keep in mind this card won't serve as an instant detacher if you hard draw Loading... .

Primathmech Alembertian

As this deck can spam out many level 4 monsters without a problem, you can easily summon this card with 3 materials to search for Loading... , which can search for Loading... from your deck to your hand. You can also make this card with 4 materials to search for any floodgate of your choice or Loading... for the FTK combos.

Heroic Champion - Gandiva

Since this deck is mostly filled to the brim with warrior-type monsters. It allows you to easily summon this card, which is a solid form of disruption.

Daigusto Emeral

You have your Loading... to recycle back your Xyz monsters, and now this card, which can help you recycle back both your main and extra deck cards, leaning towards the main deck. As you burn through the 4 new onomats monsters, in order to have an even better grind game, you can recycle them, which will open up more plays in the grind game.

Eclipse Twin

This card's purpose is similar to Loading... , but instead of recycling your cards, you can summon them back from the GY to your field instead, as it can summon back from the GY your boss monsters like Loading... and Loading... , or any Xyz that you need in your situation, whenever sent to the GY. Which can help you in the mid to grind game at times.

Something to keep in mind is that if you do play this card, it's most likely going to be an overlay unit under Loading... or Loading... , so only detach it when you can use its GY effect and gain value off of it.

Good generic Xyz's which works with this deck

These are some generic Xyz monsters, which can come in handy often in these deck.

Loading... - A walking Loading... alongside a easy to make instant detacher for this deck.

Loading... - A nice-going 2nd board cleaner play you can easily make with this deck, which can catch your opponent by surprise and blow them out of the waters.

Loading... - A nice and simple way to get rid of 1 monster on the field.

Loading... - Just like Loading... , it's a simple way that can get rid of 1 monster on the field but shuffles it back instead, which can play around some destruction or GY effects times. This card can also work with Loading... if you are playing Loading... .

Loading... - Easy to make on-field monsters negate, which can be a viable option to make in your end boards.

Loading... - Since you play a good amount of spell cards in the deck, having more options to OTK can be helpful. Alongside it being able to discard and use the GY effect of Loading... to push for lethal if you are on the Full Armored Xyz package.

Loading... - Just like Loading... , an easily made board cleaner card that can be made with this deck.

Tech Cards

All of the cards listed in this whole section apply to both decks unless the description says otherwise.

Gagaga Magician

Ever want to summon powerful non-rank 4s in a consistent manner? Well, this card will fit to your liking, as it can change its level from 1 to 8, and if you combine this effect with the 2nd effect of Loading... , you will be able to Xyz summon any powerful non-rank-4 Xyz monster that is between 1 and 8, which can be something like Loading... .

Astraltopia

If you played Utopia, you are probably familiar with this card and how you would typically search for a Loading... , Loading... , or Loading... . However, now you just use it to search for Loading... , Loading... , or Loading... (one of these 2 in specific combos) , Loading... for Loading... combos or Loading... if you are doing the Loading... combo.

Gogogo Golem - Golden Form

Congratulations, your gogogo monster has evolved into a shinny gogogo. This card is a neat addition to this deck, as it's a searchable, easy-to-summon on-field monster negate for the deck. In order to resolve the negate, it must lose 1500 ATK points; in order to gain that effect, you should summon this card by using 1 of the following:

Loading... = 3000 ATK points

The one where you get the most value from for this card, as it can use its effect twice (not in the same turn).

Loading... = 2800 ATK points

Loading... = 2200 ATK points

Cards that you shouldn't use to summon this card if you want the negate effect:

Loading... = 0 ATK points

Something to keep in mind with this card is that it's an mandatory activation, so unfortunately you won't get to choose what on-field monster effect to negate. Thus making this card a slightly worse version of Loading... , but this card still has its perks.

Gogogo Gigas

With the addition of Loading... , this card is no longer a required card for the deck; however, don't gogogo start thinking this card is useless, as it still provides a use for the deck. Which is simply just being an extra body for the deck, which can extend some combos a bit further, mainly the 1-card combos, which can come in handy at times.

Xyz Shift

Another card you can search with Loading... . This card turbos out your Loading... , which allows you to skip the step where you have to make an instant detacher Xyz monster before you make Loading... , alongside it allowing you to make it without using additional onomat cards in hand to do so, which can help force out your opponent's handtraps, which could've been used to counter your onomat plays. Now having to be forcefully used to prevent you from summoning Loading... this way. Which lets you be able to do your onomat plays freely with no problem.

Note: Keep in mind that this card requires the use of both Loading... and Loading... to pull off. So having that 3rd Gagaga monster, like Loading... , comes in handy to still be able to use the Loading... special summon effect.

Sales Ban

In this deck you really don't want to get hit with Loading... since it's a turn-ending card for this deck. So you would play this card to prevent the activation of Loading... so you can do your full combo.

Loading... isn't the only purpose of this card; it can also help you stop a problematic card from messing up your plays going 1st or 2nd.

Goblin Biker Grand Entrance

Want another way to search for your Loading... since it's such a good card in the deck? Well, this card might be something that you want to play, as not only can it search for Loading... , but it's also an overlay drainer, which gives you multiple pluses, which can be perfect in an Xyz matchup or against a troublesome Xyz monster your opponent ends on.

Reinforcement of the Army

Want even more ways to search for your starter and extenders for the deck? Well, this card can be a good addition.

Gagaga Utopic Tactics

Another card that you would search with Loading... . This makes it so that your utopia and utopic monsters are unable to be destroyed and targeted by your opponent's card effects, combine that with Loading... and your opponent straight up can't target anything on the field. Alongside this, if you summon one of them, you can destroy 1 card your opponent controls.

Another neat thing about this card is it can do the Loading... and Loading... in one effect, but you are not limited to levels between 1 and 8; you have the option to go for rank 9, 10, 11, or 12 monsters. Which can open the doors even to even more powerful non-rank 4 Xyz monsters like Loading... .

Unfortunately, though, pulling off the rank 9-12 plays is not always viable because you have to go out of your way to search for this card when you could be searching for better cards. However with Loading... and Loading... level control combo, the combo basically does the same thing but doesn't require you to search for a weaker card just to make the combo work. The rank 1-8 Xyz monster choices are typically better than the rank 9-12 for the most part.

Unbreakable Xyz Barrier

Our new and improved version of Loading... , this card can negate but doesn't have to destroy the card it negated; it can destroy any card on the field, which can come in handy. Alongside it still being able to protect your board from cards like Loading... and Loading... .

This card also has a GY, which refiles your Utopia or Utopic monster with an Xyz material. You typically use this effect on the Utopic monsters, as those are the ones that stay on the field longer and have more valuable effects that can be used by detaching 1 overlay unit, unlike Loading... , where it has to use 2 overlay units.

You can argue that this card is a core card; however, this is Master Duel, which is BO1, and in tournaments where siding isn't an option. It makes it difficult to say it's a must-play in Master Duel and not just a tech card you can use for the deck. But I recommend you to play this, as it makes your board not lose to powerful board breakers like Loading... and Loading... .

Combos - Utopia

Since I can't cover all of the combos that this deck can make since there are too many, I will cover the basic combos and a couple of non-standard combos that are still viable choices you can do. Almost all of the combos in this section will have a Nib combo counterpart, which shows you the plays after you get hit by Loading... on the 5th summon. If they hold there Loading... until you summon Loading... , then you can just use the normal line with any combo since it won't do anything.

Before we gogogo get into the combos, I will be using the following abbreviations, so keep them in mind while reading to fully understand the combo step:

NS = Normal Summon
ss = Special Summon
XS = Xyz Summon
DONR = Xyz summon into Loading... , once you get the search with Loading... use Loading... effect to special summon Loading... .
Loading... on the end board = any monster negator.
Loading... on the end board = Loading... token.

Combo Note: If you see a combo where Loading... is summoned and it searches for Loading... , you can just summon Loading... instead if you like. I just do Loading... since you get that Loading... backup disruption in hand. However, if you see Loading... and it searches for a card that isn't a Loading... , then it is required to be made in that combo.

A friendly reminder that you can summon any number of your choice off with for some combos Loading... ; the ones listed are basically the go-to, always viable options. With that out of the way lets gogogo get into them combos!

END BOARD:

Opponent can't stop the FTK with anything that targets or by using a monster effect thanks to Loading... and Loading... .
Automatic win
This is the end board before you do the FTK, after you do the FTK the board will be the same but without Loading... and Loading... .

Note: If you want to search a floodgate with Loading... instead of a Loading... , go ahead; the combo will be the exact same, but the only difference is that you won't be summoning Loading... and Loading... ; you would just be summoning numbers, which provide additional disruptions to your end board.

Nib Loading... Combo #1- Basic

This combo is when you get hit by Loading... on your 5th summon, most likely being Loading... . This is the timing Loading... is most impactful (by not that much) for the deck; if the opponent saves it until you make Loading... , it pretty much does nothing. Your combo proceeds as normal, just with the possibility of not ending on Loading... , which doesn't mean you're a gaga goner...

Do this combo from "Loading... Combo #1 - Basic" until step 8, as that's when you will get hit with Loading... and continue with this combo.

Activate Loading... by sending a Loading... to ss itself.
Activate Loading... GY effect to ss itself.
Use those 2 Dododo monsters to XS into Loading... .
