Fairy Tale deck!

Once upon a time...


Introduction

Based on popular Grimm brothers stories, this archetype is full of characters coming from our childhood fairy tales! While we are missing Loading... and other cards that have not seen a proper printing yet in both tcg and ocg, we are getting everything that has a legal version of this archetype! This is enough to build a proper fairy tales deck and eventually use the Loading... as a powerful engine for other archetypes.


The Archetype Cards

Golden Castle of Stromberg

Tale: The Raven

The core card of the archetype. It has an INSANE effect that lets us summon directly from the deck any card of the archetype. On top of that our targets are able to special summon from the deck AGAIN netting us already a +2 in card advantage, abusing one of the strongest mechanics in the game. Not only it gives us easy summons, Golden Castle also has protection for our monsters since it also has a better Loading... effect! All this power does come with some drawbacks tho: if we choose to special summon from the deck castle denies our normal summon for that turn, and we have to pay for a expensive maintenance cost with 10 cards being banished from our decks every standby phase.

Glife the Phantom Bird

Tale: The Griffin

A terraforming with a decent 1500 atk/def body that has a Loading... effect on any kind of summon. Just pure value, really good card.

Iron Hans
Iron Knight
Iron Cage

Tale: Iron John

Loading... is a extremely good searcher. It gives Loading... a good boost making him a 2200 atk beater, and when Iron Knight gets destroyed by battle or an effect sends him to the graveyeard it gives us a free search for another Iron Hand, or a generic warrior monster if we have a castle live. Loading... is another POGGERS card. Its effect is really powerful and can be a win condition on its own. Not only it's a non targeting non destruction removal, it also becomes a Loading... the turn after. Just insane. And if we play it while we have no golden castle, it basically is a Loading... which is still nice.

Prinzessin
Pumpkin Carriage
Glass Slippers

Tale: Cindarella

If the Iron Cage is our "beaters" department, the Cindarella group gives us some more protection and defenses, while still being able to do some nice 1300+ direct damage attackers. Loading... can be an effective way to survive and be able to run over big opponent monsters.


Synergistic Cards

Golden Homunculus

It's a warrior, so it's searchable by Loading... , and it is a really big boss monsters that sits on 4500 and 7500 ATK/DEF. That's really really big. It might be a bit gimmicky to summon since it requires a tribute but it makes Golden Castle drawback a benefit! Some ways to summon it easily can be Loading... paired with Loading... or with Loading... reanimating iron knight.

Lava Golem

We dont normal summon much with this deck so lava golem can be nice to have around. Works much better if the build focuses onthe Cindarella group

Soul Absorption

Who doesnt love a free 5000 life points?

Chaos End

Not only Loading... , we can also play Loading... now! since it's so easy for this deck to swarm, clearing a full board and go into beaters can help otks

Regulus

Especially if paired with Loading... this monster can give us extra copies of golden castle by recicling the copies that have been destroyed during the duel

Ancient Fairy Dragon

What do we want in a deck focused on special summons? MORE special summons! What about Field Spell? MORE Field spell! The search effects and the life gain also fit well this deck so why not play AFD? better in builds more combo focused obviously. Is it possible Golden Castle is the reason AFD got banned? who knows :D

Unexpected Dai

Using Loading... into a vanilla tuner monster can be a nice play to synchro summon into AFD or a powerful Loading...

Psychic Wheeleder

Speaking of synchros, the recently added Loading... can also be a nice choice for a tuner that can special summon itself if we have a pumpkin carriage on the board.

Lightwave Tuning

Turn Prinzessin into a tuner for a easy level 7 synchro

Double Cyclone

If paired with Loading... , it becomes a MST!

Gravelstorm
Murmur of the Forest

Those cards than help us by removing Golden Castle maintenence cost. They aren't really needed but can be solid tech choices.

Demise of the Land

If you feel you need more consistency.
