Dark Gaia: deck recipe [Dec 15]

Dark Gaia is a fusion monster that can force an opponent's monster into ATK position when it attacks. Since its ATK is based on the fusion materials, we can feed it some high ATK monsters to reach high numbers. Combined with the ATK boost from the field spell available through the skill, it can reach around 6000+ somewhat easily, often leading to an OTK. It can perform its core combo pretty consistently since deck provides some search effects, and Adusted Gold can almost lead to a 1 card fusion.

Since it has low ATK, you can gift this to your opponent so that you can more reliably get an OTK. You won't even need the field spell's ATK boost to deal 4000+ damage if you fuse with Adusted+Valkyrion or Malicious Edge+Berserkion/Valkyrion.

With Dark Fusion making Dark Gaia untargetable from spells and traps, you can use Santa Claws to get rid of a dangerous monster that might be able to stop the attack, essentially reducing your opponent's options and increasing the odds to successfully OTK.

Helps become a high ATK Dark Gaia, or just to be used like a regular magnets deck that can destroy multiple monsters per turn.

Its effect when destroyed can help recycle some magnets back to field to replenish resources.

Can be special summoned using Delta's effect, but it's not worth summoning it this way since you'll need the magnets in the grave for Berserkion instead.

This is mostly to be used for Dark Calling to become a high ATK Dark Gaia. It's searchable with Alpha so you have more of a chance to bring out a powerful Dark Gaia.

Mainly to be used for any of the Dark fusion spells to either become Dark Gaia or Malicious Fiend. Its effect can be situationally useful if your opponent keeps putting monsters in defense. But in most cases, Dark Gaia's enough.

This card can often lead to a 1 card fusion. Use it to search Dark Calling, which will allow you to use the Adusted Gold as one of the materials for the fusion. The other monster will need to be a rock monster if you want to get Dark Gaia out, which is plenty in the deck since it has many magnets.

If you don't have any magnets in hand, you'll likely have some Fiend monsters. Use Adusted Gold to search for Dark Fusion to become Evil HERO Malicious Fiend.

An important searcher for any HERO monster. If you have any Rock type monster, you can already search for Adusted Gold to get Dark Calling to become Dark Gaia.

If you already have Adusted Gold, you can also go for Malicious Fiend by searching for Malicious Edge.

Since you need to normal summon the other magnets, it can put you in a risky position if your opponent summons a high attack monster. Having Delta in the deck lets you safely summon it into defense as well as helping filter out your deck.

Its effect to summon Valkyrion is mostly not going to be used, despite bringing one into the deck. You'll most likely want to use the magnets in the grave for Berserkion instead, which can be searched for using Alpha.

The electromagnets are the way you cycle through the magnets since they have effects to search each other out when they are normal summoned.

Use Gamma and Beta to fetch Alpha, then use Alpha to get the high level magnet monsters from deck to hand. You can then perform the fusion combo using Adusted Gold.

The Electromagnets are safe to summon if you have a Delta in the deck, giving you a layer of protection from most OTKs.

Played from outside of the deck through the skill. Its first effect won't be used since the deck has no other fusion cards other than the dark ones. But its ATK increasing effect is very powerful and can often lead to easy OTKs.

The extra deck monsters are level 8, so this will give you 1600 ATK. Dark Gaia can already reach about 4000+ or 5000+ easily by using the magnet boss monsters, adding another 1600 will be enough to one shot most players.

Keep in mind that you don't want to use up your extra deck in case you'll need them later for fusion. If you only have 1 Dark Calling and used it for Dark Gaia, you won't be able to go into Malicious Fiend if you used it for Castle's effect.

These are the 2 fusion spells that you can search for using Adusted Gold. Dark Fusion can only use cards from your hand and field, while Dark Calling is hand and grave only.

Dark Fusion has an added effect of the summoned monster being untargetable for a turn, but only for spells and traps.

Your opponent can simply skip their battle phase to prevent its main effect, but it can still act as a pretty good wall to ensure that your opponent can't battle without getting over this monster.

Since you'll most often have this out with the field spell available because of the skill, this monster's attack is essentially 5100.

This is going to be the fusion monster that you'll summon the most with this deck. Special summon into this by using Adusted Gold and search for Dark Calling, then use any of the magnet monsters as the material.

While you can use any magnet monster with Adusted Gold, it's worth waiting to get some of the magnet boss monsters to reach very high ATK to make 1 attack that matters. Together with the field spell, it can lead to an OTK quite often.

If you want a more safer attack, it's better to use Dark Fusion instead of Dark Calling. Even if it gets hit with a Forbidden Chalice from your opponent, it can still become 2000 ATK because of the field spell, which is pretty decent.

If you still have some level 4 monsters alive at the start of your turn, you can make Diamond Dire Wolf so that you can destroy your opponent's spell/trap before committing to further plays.

This lets you attack your opponent more safely without having to rely on Dark Fusion.

A decent blocker or to simply disrupt your opponent's turn, but what makes this good in the deck is that it lets you play more proactively during your turn.

You can make this during your turn by using Gamma with another Electromagnet Warrior. If your opponent only has 1 monster, then it's already an OTK if you follow it up with Adusted into Dark Calling to make Dark Gaia using any of the Electromagnet that was used for Gorgonic Guardian's effect.

If your opponent is playing defensively, you don't need to jump from the electromagnet monsters into Delta. XYZ into this so you can destroy your opponent's set monster, or force a spell/trap from your opponent before you get your fusions out.

Has the highest base ATK for a Fiend monster, so it's mainly just used to fuel Dark Gaia's ATK, not really to be summoned on to the field.

Recycle the Evil HERO monsters if you want to re-use them for Castle's effect. Otherwise, you can use it for the magnet monsters if you need to repeat some magnet combos.

This isn't going to be summoned at all. Its main purpose is to feed Dark Gaia so it can have a high attack. Having this with another rock monster will help reach OTK levels of ATK in most cases.
