Changes

As per the Master Rule 4, this deck's no longer capable of Xyz Summoning more than one "Force Strix" at a time, diminishing their early advantage (albeit their consistency still remains). Assuming the deck isn't using any [[Link Monster|Link Monsters]], and is more likely so due to the xenophobic nature of some of their cards, this rule also enforces the "quality over quantity" mentality on this archetype's players, forcing them to rely on their Rank-Up strategy much more than before. To circumvent this, cards that Summons Xyz Monsters from the Graveyard (and placing them in Main Monster Zones) can be used, such as "[[Xyz Reborn]]". For Rank-Up focused strategy, especially those that focused on either "Ultimate Falcon", "Final Fortress Falcon", or both, can also uses "[[Raidraptor - Stranger Falcon]]" to recover them while also granting Xyz Material, and in the case of "Final Fortress Falcon", re-activates its immunity effect as well.

* As the Deck relies heavily on Xyz Summoning, any [[Prevents Special Summons|cards that prevent Special Summoning]], or cards that prevents them from accessing their Extra Deck will shut it down.

* The Deck also relies heavily on "Rank-Up-Magic" cards, so Spell negation cards can also hampers this Deck.

* All of them are DARK Winged Beast monsters, so they are vulnerable to certain Attribute and Type-based [[floodgate]] cards such as "[[Shadow-Imprisoning Mirror]]".
