Notes & Combos

I played full-on wombo combo Gradius with Cyber Serpent + Power Meter in Rush this month and it performed about as well as I expected. When you draw well going first and mill enough Gradius Option/Multiples this deck feels incredibly resilient and offensively powerful, but whenever you don't draw a good mix of main deck monsters early on or get hosed by Shiny Shady without a way to clear your face down monsters off the field you're in a lot of trouble. It's pretty apparent that even a marginally better skill could easily make Gradius a tier 1 deck.

If Black Skull Dragon gets more support in the future I will probably switch over to that deck.
