Notes & Combos
Desired endboard is Rabbit/ABC/Desirae/Gryphon/XYZ with Azurune set. This is too many monsters to have them all be linked, which feels stupid but I think is the best way to do it. There's nothing good to add more linked zones and Gryphon is too good to ignore under light lock. I leave XYZ unlinked as it's the least useful disruption, but it does becomes live when Gryphon is outed.
The endboard is pretty strong when it goes off so I am not fond of cards like Galaxy Soldier and Torque Tune Gear that don't do much until you start comboing. In-engine extenders are rare unfortunately (Reactivation, B in a roundabout way since it lets you ss X while still comboing if X is negated - this is why I run 3), but there's some neat options out-of-engine. AHL for Prisma lets you copy Y to banish it and any Light Machine for Union Controller and still make 90% of the full combo. There are some niche scenarios where it can send an ABC piece as well. It combos particularly well with Regulus, getting you to UC with an omni and NS intact. While Regulus occasionally exacerbates dead hands, any game it's live it has absolutely insane value.
The engine requirements for this deck are high (I LOVE X-Head Cannon!!!) so I think it is worth it to go well over 40 to fit a good amount of non-engine.
X 1cc:
- NS X equip+ss B
- Link plat gadget search Y
- plat eff summon Y equip+ss B
- plat+Y for UC search hangar
- hangar add Z, UC eff for Z equip Y, hangar equip driver
- driver for C and ss
- UC+B for rabbit, add A
- ss Y equip+ss B
- CZ for Moon, C eff for A
- Moon->Req->Engraver
- engraver+B for sequence, add another B
- seq make desirae
- seq+AY for gryphon (middle zone), equip seq
- summon ABC+XYZ
Hangar is 1cc too but UC searches Activation instead of Hangar. The broad strokes are similar though.
AHL+light machine:
- ss prisma dupe Y
- prisma+light machine for UC, add hangar
- hangar add B, UC eff ss B hangar equip driver
- driver equip+ss C
- UC+B for gadget, search Y
- plat eff ss Y equip+ss Y, equip+ss B
- plat+Y for UC
- YB make rabbit, search A
- UC eff ss A
- UC+A for moon, A eff add Y
- moon->req->engraver
- engraver+C for sequence, C eff ss Y equip+ss B
- seq make desirae
- seq+YB for gryphon, add B, equip seq
- summon ABC
Last note: don't summon Regulus to the middle zone since it's for Gryphon. Azurune can take its place in a linked zone after using its negate.
