How to use this deck

Building a Labyrinth

Use the skill and special summon Labyrinth Wall when you have a Dimension Gate in your hand, shuffling cards that don't help you with draws into your deck. Once you have labyrinth on the field, and set a dimension gate, activate dimension gate right away on Kaiba's turn to banish your labyrinth, or activate it when Kaiba targets your Labyrinth with his Enemy Controller.

  • If you don't have dimension gate in your hand, use your other draw cards or set A Cat of Ill Omen to get it from your deck.
  • Dimension Gate is used on Labyrinth to protect it from Kaiba's Enemy Controller as well as his D.D. Warrior.
  • Since Kaiba doesn't have any attack increasing cards, his highest attack monster is his Blue-Eyes White Dragon with 3000 attack.
  • With Blue-Eyes unable to break through Labyrinth, enemy controller can't target banished monsters, and the AI not using D.D. Warrior to trigger dimension gate's effect, this setup essentially nullifies all 3 of Kaiba's threats.

The setup

After you have labyrinth on the field, you just need to banish it using Dimension Gate, then keep drawing the cards using Skelengel and Crystal Seer to speed up the process.

  • Make sure to use crystal seer's effect at least once, to make sure that essential cards are not the last card in your deck, by sending ones you don't need to the bottom of the deck.
  • If you don't have any draw cards, then just keep passing the turns.
  • When you have 1 card left in your deck, set your Spell Reclamation (if you use it instead of 2 Union Attack).

Last turn

Make sure that you use Storm first, before summoning your monsters. This is to prevent Kaiba from using his Enemy Controller on you.

  • Use Storm to destroy your dimension gate, as well as all of Kaiba's set spell/trap cards.
  • Use Temple of the Kings and then Double Summon to get your Vassal and fusion monster to the field (through Serket).
  • Secret Pass to the Treasures on to Vassal, and then double union attack, or 1 union + spell reclamation.
  • Equip your BEUD with Dragon Treasure, or any other attack increasing cards that you have.
  • Attack directly with vassal

Problems

  • While this deck does have consistent win rate, there is still a possibility of not getting dimension gate early in the duel, and using Labyrinth without dimension gate will most likely result in a fail due to D.D. Warrior.
  • This deck REQUIRES Dimension Gate, and it is only obtainable during Paradox Brothers' event. There are no other alternatives to the card, and having 3 in the deck increases the chance of getting it early, which is important.
  • Temple of the Kings can sometimes be buggy, and not allow you to special summon a monster, despite having monsters in your extra deck and/or hand. Be sure to check the in-game news if there are any issues still occurring about this, or if it's fixed.

Hey guys, I have only one Dimension Gate and zero Cat of Omen (I could get one but it will take some time to level up Ishizu). So I was wondering: are there other alternatives? And if not, is it advisable to battle Kaiba with onl one DG or do I have to wait until the next Paradox Brothers event?

I would advise another deck, and if you insist on using this deck then you NEED 2 Cats of Omen. Dont even try otherwise. I think at least 2 dgate is mandatory, though.

OK, new question. How do I stop this sh*t from happening? I need every card in my hand, so if I throw one away I may as well give up.

He will banish your monster if he has enough lp to do that

But don't I banish my lab anyways with this build and he doesn't attack anyways? So how is that different from using Elements Unite instead of the lab ?

Lab + dimension gate =/= econ and dd attack

Element unite = econ = take your guardian and you lose

Is it possible to use union attack first and then gift of the matyr?
<< Anonymous(Wayo)

You can but it wouldn't do you any good, I guess? Haven't, and too lazy, to think this through but UA mechanic is adding attack from unit(s) you have AT the battle phase and NOT at the time you cast it, so if you GoTM other unit(s) already, UA won't add anything for you anymore.

So how do I use Storm if I have only 1 Union Attack and am forced to run Spell Reclamation? Does Summoning Vassal, then using UA (chaining Sp.R.), then using Storm work? or will he chain his E-con to that?

You can play 1 trap card the turn it was set with TotK. Try reading the cards before you *facepalm* :)
<< Anonymous(Just a Dude )

TotK will have already been used to get BEUD on the field, so TotK won't be there to let it's trap effect be activated.
<< Anonymous(Just a Guy)

you can use union and the trap while beast and totk is still on the field, then summon BEUD. at the battle phase it should add BEUD atk instead of beast atk.

It's just that UA says "monsters you currently control", so I guess that's what threw me off. Thanks for clearing that up.
JDV
Please can me tell someone how to deal with this problem:
the last turn I need the following cards to win: Vasal, The Beast, Totk, reclaim, union, double s., the pass, random boost for the drake...and this all on the Hand. But I can handle only 6 Cards... where am I wrong? Please explain

put your monsters down before your last turn. paradox brothers are weak, they aren't going to do anything to you.

I fight AGAINST the paradox bros...kaiba will attack vasal or Beast wenn I set them and don't use them directly...or he'll throw a econ...set monsters will not work

You can set some of your magic card that you will use first like pass and double summon and also use the hieroglyph(lows LP for comeback victory +500p) in order to have one more card in your hand, that means you will have 8 cards in your last turn. If you using cerberus(with draw light coz it needs 1500dmg to draw it) try the bow in order to atk directly with it(easily get over 9999dmg).Good luck!

GIFT OF MARTYR ON LABYRINTH WALL IS NOT WORKING.

Why would you use that on lab wall? It has 0 ATK...
<< Anonymous(Leon)

I think he used some card to change the DEF and the ATK of the lab wall and used gift on it hahahaha, he don't know what he's doing

This Is a late reply but gift of the martyr adds the ORIGINAL attack. The original attack is 0. So if you use gift of the martyr it adds 0 attack points.

FYI, Kaiba doesn't use Twister on Dimension Gate, so you only need to set one.

Now he attack in your last turn. Even with labrynth wall, what happening ?
Anonymous
This deck still works but your last two turns are different. On your second to last turn, summon vassal and dimension gate him out. Now you will have two dimension gates active. The next turn, Kaiba will attack and you will need to bring back your labyrinth wall. In my experience, he doesn't use enemy controller and will end his turn.

On your last turn, use storm to bring back your vassal and destroy his back row. If you don't have enough cards on the field to destroy all his cards, activate a field spell to bait his twister. When you storm, he will use at least 1 Econ so destroy the other face down. Then do the usual Serket combo. If you're using spell reclamation, then make sure temple of kings is on the field when you use union attack. This has worked for me.

No longer works, Kaiba still attacks Vassal even if I have one card remaining...

Use your brain! Instead of Double Summon and 8 Cards maybe consider special Summon instead of 2x Normal Summon... Just a slide hind...

Summoner of illusions is a flip effect monster. But u cant set your Soi one turn before u end the game because he will attack it.

Or use windstorm? Use cat to grab it once you have dimension gate?
