Notes & Combos

DM BEST DECK!! Getting to DLv. Max in the November KC Cup was significantly faster compared to September and I'm absolutely in love with how good DM is.

  • Mind on Air Turn 1 combo with The Dark Magicians and Navigation is nuts. Even if my opponent doesn't need to reveal cards for their Skill, hand knowledge is a massive advantage and cannot be underestimated. It won't surprise me if Konami hits this combo to stop us from using it.
  • The deck contains 15 DARK Spellcasters overall, meaning you've got very high odds of drawing into a single DARK Spellcaster for your Skill's effect.
  • Running 3 Souls, 3 Rod and 3 Soul Servant helps to maximise your odds of drawing into those 3 cards specifically and ensure you've got combos, no matter if you're going 1st or 2nd.
  • I got a lot of utility out of D.D. Crow but didn't want to see too many in my hand so that I could still combo while dealing with the opponent's GY effects + force out any interruptions.
