Notes & Combos

I fought a fair amount of Infernoids so far in this event, but they were always running 40 card lists so I just assumed Grass was banned. Then I fought a 60 card list with a large Sky Striker engine and realized what I had to try.

Somehow muddled my way to a 14 winstreak with this list in spite of myself; it could have been longer had I not fumbled assembling lethal vs Magnet Warrior Adamancipator, but alas.

The Striker engine seemed way more unwieldy/win-more than just running generic draw spells. Eventually I realized that Tenshi's February Diamond 1 list has 59/60 maindeck cards still legal for this event, so I just copied it. Refer to their list for explanations on maindeck choices.

To replace Fairy Tail Snow, I went for Monster Reborn. I enjoy its sackiness and help with pushing for lethal, but another Infernoid name (probably Attondel #2) or Imperm are likely more correct choices.

The Skull fusion monsters are Elder Entity N'tss at home to be dumped by Tierra on summon. At least they can be banked for later. Likewise Ferrijit can be dumped as a hand fixer. Just remember that you don't have to dump those three - Tierra can dump other Tierra copies for Infernoid GY name fodder, which I occasionally forgot to consider.

Baronne is something I stole off my opponent's list - it gives me something else I can do with Decatron, e.g. one time I went Reasoning -> Decatron -> copy Antra -> bounce my own Lava Golem -> SS Dragon Ruler Blaster -> make Baronne. With link plays being much more restricted this event, Baronne's inclusion seems reasonably justified even if she conflicts with getting any additional Infernoids on board after being summoned.

Ningirsu is Unicorn at home. The 2+ Link monsters restriction is a huge inconvenience though. Usually I ended up only being able to access him with something like link Hiita -> SS their Ash Blossom + SS 1 name -> make Phoenix -> Ningirsu. Still feels like a reasonable inclusion though.

Apollousa is just there for something to do with leftover materials if I couldn't assemble lethal.
