Notes & Combos
8-axis my beloved. No other blind second deck feels quite as good in my opinion, Mikanko included.
Mostly just plagiarizing an old-ish Deep Sea Diva list, specifically one of Malphas': https://www.masterduelmeta.com/top-decks/master-i/august-2023/8-axis-blind-second/hi-im-malphas/w5RFL I quite like the philosophy of deck size being just a number. :)
Ringowurm seems like a mild upgrade to Diva since I don't have to care about the other 2 copies getting banished, etc. And being a LIGHT monster that can self-banish, it plays nicer with the Bystial package including Regained.
I tried Dis Pater but it felt too niche since my only route is to do Bystial+Ringowurm→Chaos Ruler, + Ringowurm token → Dis Pater. There were a couple times where I missed End Punisher so I switched back, only to never need Punisher since. I think the real use case for this slot is probably Chaos Angel but I keep forgetting to switch.
I'm not sold on Dimension Shifter. I slotted it in expecting to see a minimal amount of Kashtira, but I've been seeing it slotted into a fair amount of stuff recently. So I'll probably cut them to bring me down to a nice even 49 cards. :) (and/or a larger Triple Tactics package)
