Notes & Combos

Tistina is an Xyz-centric deck that uses Rank 3 / 10. It has a good synergy with the Goblin Bike engine, as it provides a compact yet high-impact Rank 3 package that yields powerful end-boards.

Through this synergy, most 1.5-card combos can result in a final board consisting of:

Full Armored Dark Knight Lancer D/D/D Wave High King Caesar (using the Fiendsmith engine) Goblin Bike Gabonga fancyball (Summoned by Abao-Aqu on the opponent’s turn to maximize its utility) Full Armored Xyz (summon Gossip Shadow by goblinbike clatter in GY)

If you only have BaaTistina, any Normal Summonable monster in you hand, you can make a field of Varudras + I:P Masquerena + Sentinel.

Use Masquerena and Sentinel to summon FancyBall, and use Misama dragon (sent to the GY as material for Varudras) and Varudras itself to summon S.P. Little Knight.

2-card combos use Play of the Tistina to bypass the restrictions of misama dragon. Plus, you can stop Nibiru by summoning Varudras and handle hand traps like Ash Blossom, Infinite Impermanence, Effect Veiler (Example: Starting with BaaTistina + Demi-God of the Tistina). The end result is essentially the 1.5-card combo board with Varudras added.

With a 2.5-card hand, the deck can bypass Ghost Belle & Haunted Mansion. (Example: Demi-God of the Tistina + Breath of the Tistina + any Normal Summonable monster).

The Fiendsmith engine is used as low-end and a primary extender. Even if you only have baaTistina or misama dragon, you can use Abao-Aqu to bypass its restrictment and make a field of Goblin Biker + Varudras.
