Superheavy Samurai Synchro: deck recipe [July 2020]

When Superheavy Samurai Wagon is Normal or Special Summoned, you can change its battle position. Once per turn, if you have no Spell/Trap Cards in your Graveyard, you can change Wagon from face-up Defense to Attack Position, and, if you do, you can add 1 “Superheavy Samurai Soul” monster from your Deck to your hand.

• Normal Summon Wagon, switch it to Defense and then back to Attack to search Superheavy Samurai Soulpeacemaker, Soulhorns, or Soulshield Wall.

Superheavy Samurai Soulpeacemaker can be equipped from your hand or field to a “Superheavy Samurai” monster you control. You can Tribute the monster Soulpeacemaker is equipped to Special Summon 1 “Superheavy Samurai” monster directly from your Deck.

• You can equip Soulpeacemaker to the Wagon you used to search it, to Superheavy Samurai Big Waraji or Trumpeter, both of which can be Special Summoned at no cost, or to Superheavy Samurai Soulpiercer. Tribute the equipped monster and Special Summon any “Superheavy Samurai” monster from your Deck.

As long as you have no Spell/Trap Cards in your Graveyard, you can Special Summon Superheavy Samurai Big Waraji (Level 5 non-Tuner) and Trumpeter (Level 2 Tuner) from your hand.

You are mostly going to use Big Waraji and Trumpeter to Synchro Summon Superheavy Samurai Stealth Ninja, but there are a few more things that you can do with them.

• Normal Summon Superheavy Samurai Gigagloves, Special Summon Trumpeter, Synchro Summon Superheavy Samurai Swordmaster Musashi, add Trumpeter back to your hand via Musashi’s effect.

When an opponent's monster declares a direct attack, you can banish Superheavy Samurai Gigagloves from your Graveyard, excavate the top card of your deck, and if it’s a "Superheavy Samurai" monster, it’s added to your hand and the attacking monster's ATK becomes 0.

Now, I did not include Gigagloves in the Example Deck, but I do think it’s a really good card, so I would suggest trying it out.

You can’t run Cosmic Cyclone or Hey, Trunade! since having even a single Spell/Trap Card in your Graveyard would invalidate most of your cards, so I decided to include Superheavy Samurai Ogre Shutendoji in the Example Deck. When it’s Synchro Summoned, this Level 6 monster allows you to destroy all Spell and Trap Cards your opponent controls.

• Normal Summon Wagon, search a “Superheavy Samurai Soul” monster, Special Summon Trumpeter, Synchro Summon Ogre Shutendoji, destroy all Spell/Trap Cards your opponent controls.

Pretty simple, but if you use Superheavy Samurai Fist to Summon Ogre Shutendoji, after getting rid of your opponent’s back row, you can also Summon Stealth Ninja.

• Normal Summon Wagon, search Superheavy Samurai Soulpeacemaker, Special Summon Trumpeter (or Big Waraji), equip Soulpeacemaker to it, Tribute it to Special Summon Superheavy Samurai Fist from your Deck, Synchro Summon Ogre Shutendoji, destroy all Spell/Trap Cards your opponent controls.

Now, by reducing Ogre Shutendoji’s Level by 1, you can Special Summon Fist from the Graveyard and Synchro Summon the Level 7 Stealth Ninja.
You are mostly not going to need back row removal at all since Stealth Ninja will be unaffected by Drowning Mirror Force and Wall of Disruption, so Shutendoji Ogre might be removed from the Example Deck in the future.

You can halve Superheavy Samurai Stealth Ninja’s original DEF until the end of the turn to allow it to attack your opponent directly this turn.

• Equip Superheavy Samurai Soulhorns to Stealth Ninja to allow it to make a second attack during each Battle Phase.
  
  
• Equip Superheavy Samurai Soulshield Wall to Stealth Ninja to raise its DEF by 1200.

If you equip both Soulhorns and Soulshield Wall to Stealth Ninja, it will be able to inflict 5200 damage to your opponent, which is more than enough to finish off most opponents.

• Grit: Going 1st is admittedly detrimental for Superheavy Samurai. This Skill will allow you to survive potential Turn 2 OTKs and give you the chance to retaliate.

• Since Stealth Ninja, your main monster, is pretty much unaffected by Drowning Mirror Force and Wall of Disruption your biggest problem will likely be Treacherous Trap Hole. Unfortunately, Shutendoji also comes out too late to do anything about Treacherous Trap Hole.
  
  
• There is no space for back row (unless you decide to run Endless Trap Hell). You are going to be extremely susceptible to OTKs and you are generally going to lack interaction with your opponent during their turn. You could probably run Shadow-Imprisoning Mirror because it stays on the field to deal with Aleister the Invoker and Elementsaber Molehu.
  
  
• Wagon can’t search Big Waraji or Trumpeter which, weirdly enough, makes the only UR in the archetype sort of awkward to use sometimes.

Note by blorb:

Superheavy Sam is quite a consistent deck.
It provides protection, draw power and of course devastating direct battle damage.
The deck is versatile : destroy heavy back rows with shutendoji, protect and draw with gigaglove, piercing damage or draw power with soul piercer, searching with wagon and soulpeacemaker ... etc

I thought of replacing kyuby for a second shutendoji (never summoned the former) but I forgot to do it :-) and it didn’t really bother tbh.

Biggest problem of course are floodgate th and Canadia (but I never encountered an opponent playing the latter) and still, you can tribute face down trumpeter and recycle it if you have special summoned it in the first place...

Bottom line I lost only a few duels during the climb mostly because I made mistakes.

Note by Dr.Agon:

Completely F2P, trust me, the Ur and Sr cards won't make this deck more consistent. As a tip, always try to set up your graveyard with gigagloves and flutist and get the most benefit out of the 1000 ways you have to search your deck. Fist is a personal fetish, you can use it to get extra sincros for free and climb from the lv 5 syncro to the lv 6 or from 6 to 7.

That lava and jinzo thing can help u against so many decks and boss monsters

Note by Stefan Fuchu:

Just reached KoG today, so I thought it would be nice to share my deck with other players. Btw, your website was of so much help since I just got back into YuGiOh 2 months ago. This is a SHS deck, very easy and fun to play, the SHS Fist is just an addition so you can synchro from lets say an Ogre to a Stealth Ninja.
