Notes & Combos

When I first read the leak about Yami Bakura receiving an Alt Style I was on the brink of commotion; I started dreaming of what new skill and support he could receive, maybe a skill that makes Diabound somewhat playable, maybe something with the Zorc retrain which came out not long ago as a JUMP promo, even something that just fills your GY with normal monsters just for you to figure out what do with them... instead nothing. Since I was heavely frustrated with this first part of the event I chose to not give up and try to make something up for my boy. This is what came out. Basically a stall deck with a Level 8 fiend engine that should block opponent's attacks and pop cards via Curse Necrofear's effect. The only way I found to set up is to quickly put your level 8s in the GY and refill your hand with Trade-in, and to set up as much as possible in first 2 turns. The climb was a nightmare and there was almost no way to win against someone that really knew what they were doing. The level of interaction of the deck is not totally absent since I found a niche interaction between Powersink Stone and Dark Spirit of Malice: by chaining Malice to an opponent monster you can add one more counter to the Stone, thus stopping the opponent given that there already was one on the trap. For the extra deck you can play whatever, just fill in Albaz fusions for golgonda and maybe some Rank 8 XYZ, you might need them sometimes
