Notes & Combos

Should this deck be 60 cards in main? Probably not. Do I like it at 60? Yes.

I tried the new Sky Striker stuff and was sufficiently whelmed. I'm too 2024-brained to jive with Striker's grind game, so I'll stick with using it as a draw engine: assembling lethal is so much easier if I don't have to rely on Raye wardrobe changing repeatedly to do it.

Partially inspired from Albion Online's Horus Spellbook lists like: https://www.masterduelmeta.com/top-decks/community-tournaments/evil-league-s10/6/horus/albion-online/XrAw6 Magicians' Souls dump Imsety is very funny and Spellbook is a neat spell fodder package as something to do for the normal summon.

I skipped Zeus, which feels very strange in a blind second 8-ish axis deck, but I only ever found myself reaching for Zeus when I'm in a bad position that I'm probably not recovering from, since most meta decks have insane recursion and Zeus blows up my Horus spells.

I'm playing Lyna partly as a way to convert Gamma + Driver into Camellia if the opponent has a LIGHT in grave since she needs two effect monsters. Link Spider might be more correct but I like Lyna's extra utility.

I'm playing Apollousa over Accesscode because if I'm can opt for a Link-4 I usually find myself wanting Nibiru/Veiler insurance more than I want help assembling lethal.
