Notes & Combos

Once again I played Gradius in Rush Duels and had a very positive experience. This Kog climb match ups consisted of 2x Hero rush, 1x Baseball m? 1x Bubble actress, 1x Music princess. This version of the deck felt smooth and consistent, with most matchups being manageable and very few feeling unfavorable. The backrow removal worked well, keeping the core game plan intact while cutting down on traps compared to earlier builds. Overall, this Gradius build feels strong, fun to pilot, and well-positioned in the current Rush format. I have few replays to share.
