Loaner Decks
Beetrooper Sortie
A Deck based around Insect-Type monsters, with "Beetrooper" monsters at its heart. Take advantage of its Summoning power to call out your trump card monsters from the Extra Deck. In particular, "Giant Beetrooper Invicible Atlas" can increase its own ATK or Special Summon a "Beetrooper" monster from the Deck to strengthen your field!
A Deck centered on "Orcust" monsters, supported by "Knightmare" monsters. Two particularly powerful trump cards are "Orcust Crescendo," a Counter Trap Card that can be activated when you control an "Orcust" Link monster, and "Dingirsu, the Orcust of the Evening Star," which can be Xyz Summoned by placing it on top of an "Orcust" Link monster.
A Deck centered on "Plunder Patroll" monsters, supported by "Danger!" monsters. In order to activate the effect of "Plunder Patroll Shipyarrrd," you can discard a "Danger!" monster from your hand and activate its effects as well. With effective combinations like this, you can take a major step toward victory!
Difficulty level ☆1 A "Krawler" Deck containing new power from a reborn world. "Krawler Soma" is a powerful monster that can not only Special Summon itself but has an effect that Special Summons other "Krawler" monsters. Make sure you're good and ready for it with the likes of "World Legacy Survivor." Furthermore, the effect of "World Legacy's Mind Meld" lets you Special Summon the ace monster "Deus X-Krawler" early in the match. Try it for yourself!
Difficulty Level ☆2 A “Vendread” Deck that has been revamped with the addition of cards. “Ravenous Vendread” is a powerful card that conducts Ritual Summons while preparing monsters to use as materials. Make quicker preparations with effects like that of “Scar of the Vendread”! What’s more, the new Ritual Monster “Vendread Scavenger” can Special Summon itself from the Graveyard, and can boost its own ATK. Summon it early and often, then go on the offense!
Difficulty Level ☆3 A “Dinomist” Deck incorporating the power of a “Dracoslayer.” Treated as both a “Dracoslayer” and “Dinomist,” “Dinomight Powerload, the Dracoslayer” has a Pendulum Effect that Special Summons allies in the other Pendulum Zone, and a monster effect that recovers those following from your Extra Deck when Tributed. Make good use of these to bring powerful monsters like “Dinoster Power, the Mighty Dracoslayer” into the fray! When you’re ready, Pendulum Summon a bunch of “Dinomist” monsters fro a sudden blitz!
