Notes & Combos

This is the list I used from lvl 17 to max in the Duelist Cup. I tried running more handtraps and removal options initially but ran into consistency issues. your syncros are your best removal options imo. Cyclone can be good for getting rid of Runick Fountain and floodgates but I didn't need them personally. Vishuda, Barron, Evil longyun, adam dragite, and Baxia do a great jiob of dealing with most threats on their own imo. Desires at 3 is a must imo. play it after you have your Mo ye/Taia/ and Longyun. Heavenly Dragon Circle is a little bricky rn so I dropped it to 1.Summit is really good rn imo. At worst, it's Mo Ye/Longyun fuel. At it's best, you can quicky rebuild your end board or summon a 3rd syncro with relative ease. Protos summoned on turn one and set to dark shuts down a lot of decks. I started running double blackout for some extra board breaking options. Runick banishing it from your deck will also trigger its secondary effect and give you a free token.

Labyrinth is arguably this decks worst matchup. You can sometimes do alright if you go first but going second is nearly impossible to win. It can be done but its not fun or easy.

Runick is also a tough match up. Especially flood gate runick. but if you get rid of fountain, the deck loses all steam and fizzles out. Evil Longyun is great for burning them.

Branded isn’t too bad of a match up if you stay ahead of them. Breaking their boards can be tricky but it’s doable.
