Notes & Combos

Budget Dragoncaster list made out of the cards I got from a single box plus the free structure deck, that's why I'm using cards like Prima Guitarna, Kamiruler and Lighting Voltcondor instead of more copies of Dragias/Yamiruler and Seven's Road Magician. Also why I'm using only 2 Thunder the Thunder. I also tried Dian Keto and Darkness Crested Hawk, but in a budged deck like this, any monster with high attack or a good effect can work.

Legend draw came in clutch often, it's the best skill for this deck currently imo. No Kuribot because I only have one.

Recovery Force ate 2 seemed good, it helped fix bad hands and allowed to play around Phantom Bind more often, but I don't think is mandatory to run by any means.

People generally don't play around Phantom Bind and it completely destroys Dragon decks, won many games because of it, I think it's good at 2.

Tried Rice Terrace Secure for a while, but found it to be underwhelming, as I often didn't have or could afford to discard for it's effect, so I replaced it with Torna, which I found to be way more flexible.

For the normal beaters, Dark Sorcerer is for Spellcaster synergy. Gazelle is a Earth, has the biggest defense and doesn't share a type with any of our other monsters, so it plays around Phantom Bind. Spell archer is a wind Spellcaster. None of those are irreplaceble and you could very well use monsters like Dragorite, Assailant, Masaki or Winged Dragon.

Tbh, I'm not 100% convinced by the Spellcaster package. Many people have chosen to cut on copies of Recovery Force and Sevens Road Witch only really works with Sevens Road Magician, so Mystic Dealer is the only relevant spellcaster synergy in the deck. I could easily see myself cutting Mystic Dealer, Spell Archer and Recovery Force for some better beaters or a Aqua package to play around Phantom Bind.
