KC Cup August LV MAX Deck

Akashiro - Amazoness

IGNSet SkillDate Submitted
AkashiroSwitcherooSept 10
♦ Akashiro:
I tried Holy Guard and Parasite Infestation as skills, but Switcheroo its what worked for me because of the poor consistency/budget of the deck, it power to not let you brick and it's the best at mirror duels.

Lava Golem, Canadia, Floodgate and Forbidden Chalice where pretty good against Fur Hires (and almost everything) but the real life saver for me in this deck was Fenghuang cause not oftern I found myself with useles/danger monters on my side of the field (Lava Golems, monsters with zero atk, Floodgated, etc.. ). Also, it has a great sinergy for plays with Amazoness Willpower and Onslaught.

Wall of disruption almost didn't worked against the other meta decks, so I would recommend trade 1 or 2 of them for more Floodgates or Canadias.

♦ azeem:
Alector is super easy to special summon in the current meta and it shuts down a lot of powerful abilities especially in the mirror match where it shuts down winz.

Caio - U.A & Masked HERO

IGNSet SkillDate Submitted
CaioCyber Style (U.A)Sept 3
Caio Switcheroo (Masked HERO)Sept 3
♦ Caio:
U.A. :
- This Deck of U.A. It proved to be consistently consistent despite only 1 UA stadium. Cyber style guarantees the summoning of monsters lvl 5+, Jinzo ends with amazoness, Dunker ends with FurHire. TTH and Paleozoic provide protection for OTK on the next turn.

Masked Hero:
- In this version of Hero deck I used the Fusion with the malicious to reduce the need for the 3rd Anki (I only have 2)
- It is a version with great synergy that eliminates magic cards and traps easily thanks to trunade, galaxy cyclone and cosmic cyclone, giving me advantage against Amazon and FurHire.

danielpclParasite InfectionSept 4
♦ danielpcl:
As the is still pretty much amazoness and heroes, you have a huge advantage against their warrior monsters. If they attack a Cipher Soldier with your Spikeshield set, you win in their first round. Parasite is good against almost everything, as it takes off one draw from your opponent and they take 1000 LP damage, and also can break a Fur Hire play. Lava Golemn and Amazoness Swordswoman are very tough to play against.

DAVE FZ - U.A

IGNSet SkillDate Submitted
DAVE FZCyber StyleSept 6
♦ DAVE FZ:
I reach lvl 19 with 2 stadiums and 3 rival rebounder (i had no 3rd stadium), other biulds i used were:
- no kuriboh, 1 extra super rush, but the kuriboh is great because some skilled players just will atack on 4k+ damage to avoid cyberstyle (sphere is better of course but i only have 1)
- field commander rahz when i had no 3 miedfielders
- the immortal bushi because it could come back every time while you have no kuriboh/sangan in the GY and use it as tribute (but all this was before the 3rd miedfielder)

The superrush saved me in my forth game to DLv max because my rival had mighty slugger+stadium and i had just dunker with 2500. but i think Canadia is better, i just don't have even 1

Destyn - Transcendent Bujin

DestynTranscendent BujinSept 6
♦ Destyn:
The deck has a lot of power during todays meta but against dyna its almost an insta scoop, the ability to discard your bujins with the skill and draw off of them with rare value defilenty helps to draw into your beast warriors aswell as Yamato, and crystal raigeki is great against midfielder and the normal summon of fur hires, but if they have mayhem I always kinda panicked anywhom thats the deck

fabiantactic - XYZ Ojama

IGNSet SkillDate Submitted
fabiantacticLand of the OjamasSept 4
♦ fabiantactic:
How to use Deck (XYZ-Ojamas): This deck’s win condition is to use Ojamassimilation to bring out XYZ-Dragon Cannon and use its not once per turn destruction effect to wipe the opponent’s board. Following up with Armed Dragon LV3 results in an OTK.

Ojamatch is used to cycle through the deck and put out an Armed Dragon LV3 that is used to special summon Armed Dragon LV5 if desired. While putting Armed Dragon LV5 on the field is not always optimal (if you don’t have one of the XYZ-pieces in hand you won’t be able to make XYZ-Dragon Cannon if Armed Dragon LV5 is still on the field when Ojamassimilation is used), Armed Dragon LV5 is useful for being a 2400 atk body, being spot removal via its own effect, and can be returned to the hand by A Wingbeat of Giant Dragon to destroy all spell/traps on the field.

Union Scramble is good recovery/OTK enabler after XYZ-Dragon Cannon has successfully been summoned. The skill Land of the Ojamas is useful since Ojama Country can be sent off Ojamatch to search out Ojama Blue.

Ojama Country is also useful for reviving Ojama Blue, swapping atk/def, and making it easier for Armed Dragon LV5 to destroy certain monsters using its effect. I’d recommend taking out a normal Ojama for another A Wingbeat of Giant Dragon but was only playing one copy at the time of reaching DLv. Max.

Gaia Dragon! - Noble Knight

IGNSet SkillDate Submitted
Gaia Dragon!BalanceAug 31
♦ Gaia Dragon!:
When facing U.A., usually you set 'Glory of the Noble Knights' or a Thypoon / Wild Tornado to destroy Normal/Special summons of your opponent, but when you fight the U.A. your priority should be destroying the U.A. Stadium before any monster summon.
Example:
You went first, and your opponent is Zane/Ryo (Cyber Style skill), then summon Drystan alone or Medraut + Drystan, (Drystan with Noble Arms of Destiny Equiped), then you set BOTH of your traps, in this case a Typhoon and a Canadia, why? because U.A. is very agressive deck and usually carries 2-3 cosmic cyclone. As soon as your opponent activates U.A. stadium, you destroy it, because it means he has Midfielder in hand, if Midfielder is normal summoned the effect of U.A. stadium will activate and your opponent will get a high lvl U.A. from Deck to Hand. If your Typhoon/Tornado is removed with Cyclone, you use a Canadia on Midfield, so your opponent won't be able to Special summon due to Midfielder being face down. Midfielder alone is not a problem for Drystan and a shield equiped. Your main problem will be the Stadium and those 3 cosmic cyclones, remember that Cyber Style is easily used after their activation.

This sucks! How many wins do I need to go from 19 to 20? I won three in a row and thought I was Ok, then I find I'm still at 19 and losing game after game to a bunch of MaxDlv. Why the hell I'm against max lvl players?

Because konami want 🔥 all players with a harder version of kog.. ( is a mistake of system all lv 19 are marked like 20) you need 5 wins if you loose 1, need 2 more example 3w 1l 3w, 4w 1l 2w, and remember loose rank with only 2 looses

Endless trap hell or a trap named POT/JAR of something allows you to recycle almost all your traps from graveyard to deck.
You dudes need to think.

I'm relatively new to Spellbooks - why is 2nd cyclone preferred to 2nd master - isn't master, or even draw sense: water much more versatile and reliable than switcheroo?

I still haven't read any argument to not running 2 masters instead of 1.

The cosmic cyclone helps with the Amazon matchup. You can run 1 master as you can can recyle it with banish recovery and use it again

Do you always go for Master with Banish then?
Because when I'm running two (so far testing only against NPCs though) I am more open to what card I can get back to my hand.

Don't get me wrong, Mark, I'm constantly hanging around Legend/KoG rank, although I probably sound like I'm stuck in Silver judging by how much I complain.
There's just so many things wrong with this game that I cannot remain quiet.

Sorry I couldn't upload it earlier.
Reached Dlv. max within first hours of event and Obliterated Aster, Zane, The Creator, Cronos di Medici, Yugi Muto, Kaiba-Sama, Odion, etc.

*Only Super KOG vs Super KOG matches! (6 Lion Crests folks). *And I purchased my deck with Gems alone as shown in the vid.

Since I reached legendary rank in July I received 500 gems when the KC cup started. Now you can gain a total of 2000 gems if you reach DLV MAX and you play in the KC cup at least 3 times every day. I really hope now Konami stopped that 🔥ty gems nerf
Valencia
U.A. Zane, Vampire Zane, Amazoness Zane, Destiny Zane. Zane, Zane, Zane. Finally! It is nice to see this man get a chance to shine, especially since I'm so tired of it usually being Yugi Muto or Odion. That aside, do you have to win 5 matches in a row to get to duel lv. max? I'm at stage 19 right now and it is suddenly not so fun anymore. If I wait more towards the end, will most of the KOG players be gone?
<< Anonymous(Zane lover)

I have seen a few random Asters besides me using the d-hero Anki deck. But that is all I have seen him use. And I have never seen another player in any duel I have fought besides myself use him with Amazoness. Zane is the man with cyber style now! It is versatile even if it is not used for tributing.

Another word for versatile is abuse. People just love to exploit don't they? It might attract a nerf eventually at this stage.

Protesting this way won't make u right either. Its a obvious abuse of skill like what valencia mentioned, furs,mh,zons... All use it. U are just worried your skill will get nerf.

it's like reaching KOG rank, you need 5 wins in a raw for the first attempt,if u lose ur rank up mach you will get a another chance after 3 or 4 wins, lose 2 times in a raw or lose after your 1st win after the first loss(4 wins, loss, win,loss) and the required wining streak will reset to 5 wins in a raw again
