Nephthys: deck recipe

Duel Links Deck, Dawn of Destiny, Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys, Fire, Best Deck.
update 12/03/2018

Overview

The core strategy of this deck is destroying your own monsters via card effects to trigger their effects. At the center of this deck is Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys which can revive and destroy all spell/trap cards on the field after being destroyed by a card effect. And then there are the Fire King monsters, that quickly can swarm the field and also have great synergy with almost every card in this deck. Goka, the Pyre of Malice and Fire King Island provide support for destroying your own monsters and triggering their effects.

How to use

Add Nephthys to hand

Card of the Soul can search any monster in your deck, but the down side is that the monster has to have a combined attack and defense points equal to your current life points making this card somewhat difficult to use. The best use for Card of the Soul in this deck would be to search for Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys while your life points are still at a full 4000.

Special summon Nephthys

Tribute summoning Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys is not recommended, since destroying him while in your hand is a much quicker and less costly way of summoning him.

Destroy Fire Kings

Fire King monster's effect activates when a monster you control is destroyed by card effects. Their primary effect is always special summoning them form your hand except during the damage step. In addition, they have secondary effects which support their play style.

  • Fire King Avatar Yaksha can destroy another card in your field or hand after he is destroyed. this can trigger the effect of Fire Kings, Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys or other cards you might add to this deck.
  • During the next standby phase after being destroyed by a card effect, Fire King Avatar Barong searches your deck for a Fire King monster and adds it to your hand. Destroying him while in your hand with Fire King Island or Fire King Yaksha is a great way to thin your deck and search for combo pieces.

Goka, the Pyre of Malice is a great card to use in this deck. Normal summon a Fire King monster then special summon Goka to destroy it. This puts a powerful monster on your field while aslo triggering your Fire King's effect, and can also cause other Fire Kings to be special summoned from your hand. You can also use destroy Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys with Goka's effect, giving you two high leveled monsters and clearing your opponent's backrow during your next stanby phase.

How to use (Soul Exchange ver.)

Tribute opponent's monsters

Use Soul Exchange on an opponent's monster to be able to use it as tribute this turn. Summon Hand of Nephthys then activate her effect, using herself and your opponents monster as tribute you can special summon Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys from hand or deck. You can also use Soul Exchange to tribute summon Goka, the Pyre of Malice if you don't have Hand of Nephthys on hand and you need to remove your opponent's monster from the field. Tokens summoned by Goka, the Pyre of Malice can also be used for Hand of Nephthys' effect.

Destroy Nephthys

When Sacred Phoenix of Nephthys is destroyed by a card effect he revives himself during your next standby phase and clears the field of all spell/trap cards. By using cards that take advantage of his effect we are able to continuously clear the enemy's backrow.

It's to keep you alive until you draw Phoenix AND phoenix burner. Until you get Phoenix in hand and phoenix burner (FKI/Yaksha) on field, if you don't have a proper fighter the opponent is gonna play with your LP

I fuking hate this deck. What are the counters?

No legit Nephthys would fall for that poor set-up. It literally relies on Field spell and them NOT having a common counter Trap-like to destroy the combo.

LMFAO. Every Ojama deck I went up against from gold to legend couldn't stop my nephthys deck. Owned all of them. Even when they brought out Ojama King, I got replays for proof if you want.

I hate it too Reply
The only times I countered it was with either “symbol of duty” or “Autonomous Action unit” these cards will make that deck look like a joke, unless if they have more than 2 Phoenixs. But it’s still satisfying to use their godly card against them.

Do you need 3 phoenix? Is it ok to sub Cards of the Sky for the third one?
<< Anonymous(fajjet)
SmartASS Reply
Of course you can. But my personal opinion is it's better to have 3 phoenix. Reason: unlike "Emblem of Dragon Destroyer", card of the soul has LP constriction. Means you probably wont be able to use Card of Soul as searcher from Turn 3 and above. From then on, it will just be a dead card that takes up your deck space

I played this deck for a while and rarely got all 3 Phoenix on the field in the same duel. 3 is best only to give you a better chance of drawing one. You can run this fine with just 2.

Beserker is a great tech card in this deck. The deck is strong against almost everything except CA since dakini sends your cards instead of destroying them..

Yea I use the same deck. Wrecks all of these lame 🔥 WOD control decks. But I'd have a back up deck for cyber angels/ red eyes. Doesn't do well against those 2 if you're using restart.

You can’t get kog with it because this deck sucks in this meta, it gets obliterated by almost any matchup right now, no chance against CA, and with so many new spell and trap cards which counters it’s just too weak. At very least you can climb to legendary, but after that chance getting to kog is really low with all the CAs running around in legendary

Besides Yugioh, I like One Piece. Kurohige is my role model. 659-440-527
Lvl 45 deck name is A Frog's Journey
Can easily be special summoned by mother grizzly.
This card will always deck out superheavy samurai since they don't use spell or traps.
