Sky Striker Orcust
Duel Triangle DARK & WATER / LIGHT & EARTH / FIRE & WIND from on April 18th, 2025Notes & Combos
I didn't expect this deck to be this decent in this event. Most of my losses have been me accidentaly clicking first.
The gameplan is pretty obvious. Go second, let them cook and then break the board with spells and ton of extra deck removal and then maintain control with your orcust cards.
The matchup against blue-eyes is surprisingly playable. You rarely concentrate a ton resources on the board, so the blue-eyes players often struggle to hit the correct cards with Majesty or Drillbeam. While Spirit dragon is annoying, I have been mostly able to out it with spells before having to use my orcust grave effects.
There are some cutable URs, mostly Zeroboros and Unicorn. A discard is pretty harsh when breaking a board and Zeroboros also screws with your own grind game, so I rarely make them. You can also easily replace Raigeki with dark hole, which might even be better in some cases. You might be tempted to cut Azalea, but I think she is pretty vital. In contrast to S:P you can make her with a token which comes up very often. She is also less telegraphed, because people are trained by now to be alarmed when you have 2 bodies including an extra deck monster
In conclusion, any event where Orcust is even semi playable, is a good event.
This deck is super fun and I encourage you to try it if you maybe already have the card necessary.
