Geargia: deck recipe [June 3]

Geargia is a Control Deck that focuses on swarming the field with various Level 4 EARTH Machine-Type monsters and then slowly depleting the opponent’s resources via their effects. No new card has been added to this archetype since its introduction in Valiant Souls.

Machina Fortress is an easy to summon boss monster for almost any machine Deck. Its summoning condition makes it quite easy to summon, especially when Special Summoning Fortress from your hand because you can use it as part of its own summoning cost. The discard cost can later be revive by Geargiano or Mk-II.

Fortress will be used as a beater for most of the Duel, because your control Trap Cards should suffice. But in case you really need a removal effect, you can crash Fortress into the opponent's monster.

Summon Gearframe to fetch Fortress. Summon Fotress then attach Gearframe to it for protection, or keep them separate for more damage output.

Another advantage of running Gearframe is it's matching level and Type, letting it synergize with your deck. This means you can use Gearframe as material for your Rank-4's and search it out with Gear Gigant X.

Essentially lets you revive any of your Main Deck monsters but with its effect negated. The revived monster should then be used as Xyz material or target for Ties of the Brethren if it is a level-4 monster.

Normal Summon Mk-II and use its effect to revive another Geargiano. Use both monsters as material for Zenmaines

Mk-III is a good target for Mk-II because it gives you an extra revive. You can Normal Summon Mk-II and revive Mk-III. Then use Mk-III's effect to revive Geargiano, combining all three monsters to make Geargigant. However, this combo locks you into only making Geargiagear Gigant XG for that turn.

Always set Geargiarmor so you can flip it face-up later and get a search, unless you plan to use Geargiarmor as Xyz material. When activating Ties of the Brethren, Geargiarmor should be your highest priority to increase resource gain during the turn you can't Special Summon or battle.

Geargiaccelerator is a simple-to-use field extender. If you want to make an Xyz monster but lack a level-4 on the field, Special Summon Geargiaccelerator.

With enough graveyard setup, Geargia Change effectively lets you make any Xyz monster you want by playing a single card. The graveyard setup can be done passively as you summon and detach materials from your Xyz monsters.

Special Summoning 2 monsters from the deck for no cost is so good that it makes running Geargianos a viable build. Additionally, the level modulation effect is the reason why we are able to run a level-4 toolbox in a mostly Geargiano build.

The advantage of this over a Ties of the Brethren build is that you are able to immediately Xyz summon with the monsters you Special Summoned.

In a Geargiagear build, the Rank-4 monsters would mostly be summoned by Geargiagear. While the Ties of the Brethren build would be composed of naturally level-4 monsters. Additionally, the Ties of the Brethren is slower at making Xyz plays but makes up for it with the Main Deck monsters' control effects.

Gear Gigant X should be one of your early game Xyz summons. Its has good base ATK and a search effect to give you a head start on resources. Additionally, it floats into a Geargiano upon leaving the field to catch an extra attack or make another Xyz monster on your turn..

Summon by with Geargia Change or using Mk-II's effect to revive another Xyz material. Put Zenmaines on the field to wall your opponent. They won't be able to get rid of Zenmaines without risking their own board setup. However, this is only effective until they have a way of removing Zenmaines without destruction.

Geargiattacker and Geargianchor provide monster and backrow removal respectively: they are both very important as they allow you to keep control of the field without wasting any resources. On their own these two cards can’t really do anything: you need to control multiple “Geargia” monster in order to take advantage of their effects, which is exactly why this deck functions so well with Ties of the Brethren.

Since Geargiattacker and Geargianchor’s effects trigger upon being flipped face-up, a common card that you see in “Geargia” decks is The Spell Absorbing Life: the added Life Points can give you a chance to activate a second Ties of the Brethren during the same Duel in case of a board wipe (Drowning Mirror Force), but it can also make Geargiattacker’s effect miss the timing if you chain it in response to another card effect.

Since The The Spell Absorbing Life loses a lot of value if you do not start with Ties of the Brethren, we opted for Floodgate Trap Hole and Wall of Disruption (generic protection) in the Example Deck.

Geargiarsenal gains 200 ATK for each “Geargia” monster you control so even though its original ATK is pretty low, after activating Ties of Brethren it will reach 2100 ATK.

The ability to Special Summon a Geargia from the deck is great for putting Geargiarmor on the field.

At the cost of 2000 Life Points, Ties of the Brethren allows you to quickly swarm the field.

Thanks to Balance, you will always have a Monster Card in your starting hand and a 50% chance of also having this Spell Card, plus a Trap card for protection which is all you need to get started.

Keep in mind you will not be able to Xyz Summon this turn after you activate Ties of the Brethren.

Geargia suffers from a slow start, but once they get their monsters onboard they can be quite a formidable force. To help them survive long enough to setup their board here are some defensive techs.

Keep in mind you need to control at least one face-up Machine to use Pulse Mines, so don't flip all your Geargias face-down.

At first Spell Absorbing Life might not look like it does anything for defense. But when you consider how it combos with Geargianchor, it is clear how you can use it to deadly effect.

Geargianchor's effect triggers when it is flipped face-up. Spell Absorbing Life flips all monsters face-up. Flipping two Geargianchors essentially results a monster wipe for your opponent. Add Geargiattacker to this combo and your opponent is now open to an OTK on your next turn.

Needle Ceiling only destroys face-up monsters while, in early game, most if not all of your monsters should be face-down during opponent's turn.

Cowboy is a staple in any Rank-4 toolbox. He can occasionally steal wins with his burn damage. And the attack position effect can also be useful for attacking over your opponent.

Currently Utopia is one of the best Rank-4 beaters at 2500 ATK. Additionally, it has a built-in battle protection effect that can be used to protect any of your monsters.

Utopia can help with the slow early game of the Ties of the Brethren build by protecting your low DEF Geargias.

Summon only to push damage. Usually Gagaga Samurai can only give himself the double attack effect, but occasionally you can summon him alongside Cowboy to maximize Cowboy's stat manipulation.

The relatively low ATK stat makes Blackship of Corn not ideal for battle. However, its effect can be good for pushing damage while getting rid of low ATK monsters.
