Notes & Combos

So this month I decided to try some different decks out (my usual go tos are Synchrons and Crystrons), the meta is kinda weird at the moment with lots of special summons (Mekks), graveyard hate (Noids, Mermails/Atlantean) and annoying cheese decks (Xyz Galaxy)

I wanted a deck that could perform above averagely against each of these threats and I eventually settled on a rio based deck.

Water is a favourite archetype of mine and the Twins Together skill is a nice option, as it doesnt lock you into any particular cards in your extra or main deck. This allows you to run powerful staples like Crow, Roach, Magnus and Kaiju that Territory of the Sharks does not allow.

You can also use Shark Stickers as a basic extender to help facilitate multiple exceed summons as you can simply shuffle them back to your deck to get to level 4 (5s) on the field (also dodges warning point). A single copy of Angler and Lantern shark do the rest, whilst your consistency is pretty high with 6 copies of your starter (Buzzsaw Shark).

The engine is quite small depending on how many extenders you want to run (3 Buzzsaw, 3 Tuna, 1 Lantern and 1 Angler are core), then you can load up on whatever counters the meta.

I'm still tweaking the extra, the blue quant card will be first on the chopping block, maybe for Giant Hand to help a stronger t1.

Would love to write more but I'm out of space! Had a good run this season, as this deck can beat anything in the meta as long as you draw a good hand.
