How to use

Special summon XYZ machines

Union monsters in this deck, like Y-Dragon Head and Z-Metal Tank, can easily be special summoned, use cards to help you get them on the field to use as fusion materials.

Attach union monsters

Equipping union monsters is a big part of this deck's strategy. The monster that is equipped with a union monster gains protection from being destroyed, by destroying the union monster instead, and also gains additional effects based on the union monster equipped. Use Roll Out! to equip a union monster from your graveyard to an appropriate monster on the field.(Take note that a monster can only equip one union monster at a time.)

Boost attack

The monsters in this deck don't offer much in terms of attack, even the fusion monsters have comparatively low attack. To make up for this we need to use attack boosting cards.

  • Machine Assembly Line boost all machine-type monsters by 200 attack and can be use as revival for machine-type monsters. Which is perfect since this deck mostly consists of low leveled machine-types.
  • Y-Dragon Head and Z-Metal Tank also boosts the attack of the monster they are equipped to.

Contact Fusion

Contact fusion is this deck's specialty, by removing materials on your side of the field from play you can fusion summon without using polymerization.

  • XY-Dragon Cannon destroys a face-up spell/trap card at the cost of discarding one card.
  • XZ-Tank Cannon destroys a face-down spell/trap card at the cost of discarding one card.
  • YZ-Tank Dragon tank destroys a face-down monster card at the cost of discarding one card.
  • XYZ-Dragon Cannon is your strongest monster and can destroy any card at the cost of discarding one card.

I've been toying with this deck a lot recently. I think Heavy Mech Support Armor is not that good, and instead I use Heavy Mech Support Platform. This is because this deck generally lacks in the ATK stat. For this reason, I'm using only 2 Frontline Bases and 3 Roll Outs, since reviving Union monsters that buff the ATK of your monsters is so valuable. Roll out is the real MVP of this deck imo.
Also, I use Sleight of Hand as a skill, since it helps you get that much needed ATK, plus it gives something to discard if you have something to target with your fusions.
Also, no Enemy Controllers, use Sphere Kuribohs instead if you have them.

This seems to be out of date; I doubt Platform was around when this list was made.

XYZ summons applies to VWXYZ monsters, as per listed above, those monsters can be Special summoned from your extra deck without using polymerization (very similar to Contact Fusion except the monster stays on field), that is why this is commonly referred to as XYZ summons.

thank you sir, but I was referring to the xyz theory not xyz summon, two quite different topics...

you need two or more monsters of the same level. then you just have to overlay them and you can use their effects up to the number of xyz materials xxx

No. But you can use de-fusion against it.

Don't they banish themselves upon contact fusion, thus materials used for fusion are not in the graveyard to use de-fusion?

De-Fusion can be activated targeting a fusion monster on the field. So if all fusion material monsters from that targeted fusion monster are in the GY from De-Fusion's owner, all of them can be special summoned. This second part of the effect is an optional effect, so you can activate a De-Fusion targeting a Fusion Monster even if its materials aren't in your GY.

Considering XZ is able to remove face-down backrow card, and another union monster adds 500 ATK DEF and extra life for the tanks, I guess sergeant electro and RMM are not that significant changes... if consider union interactability, I'd prefer the machines

Ectoplasmer destroys both monster and union... Is this a glitch?

I am a fan of the principle of the union deck. You'll find that your backrow is always clogged. Without having 5 zones, this deck is weakened severely. With 5 zones, you could keep each monster protected from destruction 2-3 times a turn. With just 3, it becomes tough to not have a full backrow. Great draw speed. Great revival. Great card removal. Solid Attack. (X-canon plus union can get you a 2200-2400 monster turn 1) The only downside is a clogged field. Which always happens since you don't win in a couple turns.

for this reason I would limit the number of continuous spells in this deck from 4 to 2, and include a sphere kuriboh (or two) for defense. also, roll out seems decent but there are probably better cards for defending your union monsters (windstorm, mirror wall, enemy controller)
TheBird
This deck is not as good as it stands now.. I've personalized some cards (about 3 or 4) to add SRH and ECON w/Kuriboh. You will want to keep the Frontline Base spell card however.
