Notes & Combos

After not kogging for these last months (due to school and other things) despite being a "kog elite" player, here I am reaching Kog with Blue-Eyes! Since no one had kog with this deck for 2 months (until the day before yesterday when someone else was able to) I decided to revisit it and kog with it in this difficult meta!

(NOTE: I want to say right away that BE deck is absolutely not recommended to try to kog with, ESPECIALLY in this meta, because it is very dependent on luck/not bricking, it has little recovery and above all it is very vulnerable to various current staples...things that we all already know yes, but in this meta with decks that have good turn 1 boards + good recovery it's very difficult for this deck to keep up witn in the current meta...)

DECK NOTES:

-3 Books of moon= Literally a MANDATORY staple (imo) in this meta to be able to play through certain turn 1 boards with powerful boss monsters (ex: Dystopia, Crystal wing, Dingirsu...) while being able to help us interrupt certain turn 1 combos of the opponent.

-Glow up bulb instead of Dragon Spirit Of White: After 4 years of playing BE on DL, for this specific kog climb with the deck I decided to remove Spirit (which annoyed me always finding it in my hand...) to put instead Glow up bulb (with which I cooked more and that gave me more consistency to make the new "combo" of the deck), but if you want you can put anything you want here.

-Levianeer instead of the 3rd copy of Melody= the deck doesn't need the 3rd copy of Melody (which resulted for me in a brick sometimes...2 copies is perfect) and Levi gives us that additional firepower/combo potential that is too good to ignore.

-2nd copy of Spirit + Crystal wing + Ancient Fairy Dragon: "The new SAUCE of the deck" (aka a classic combo of tcg BE players from 2016). A combo that we will sometimes aim to do on turn 1 to try to have a decent negation (instead of the usual "Spirit, pass"), which we will obtain if we have Alternative(+ BEWD) + either a Sage, 2 Stones or Bulb: We summon Alternative, we summon Sage (or Stone/Bulb) and add Stone, we synchro summon Spirit, we activate the 2nd effect of spirit to summon fairy dragon (or even Michael if we prefer not to aim to summon Crystal wing on turn 1 and we prefer to have a sort of removal with Michael on turn 2), we activate the 1st effect of Fairy dragon to summon the Stone (/the second Stone or here we activate the effect of Bulb) and use these last 2 to summon Crystal Wing :)
