Best Gate Heroes Decklist Ever!

Hey readers. Now that the premium tin will contain Elemental Hero - The Shining, the UK playerbase will now be able to use it.

I can't wait. It's been a year since i got hold of my playset and now I'll finally be able to mess around with it at locals and anywhere else. Plus the Ra Yellow mega pack will have holo E - Emergency Calls!. It's all coming together right now!

Here is my current gate heroes decklist, with a similar build posted on my channel (Which you can view by clicking the videos on the sidebar). I will change it slightly once Masked Hero Acid comes out.

Monsters - 11
1x Elemental HERO Stratos
2x Elemental HERO Neos Alius
2x Elemental HERO Voltic
1x Elemental HERO Bubbleman
1x Elemental HERO Heat
1x Elemental HERO Ice Edge
1x Thunder King Rai-Oh
2x Effect Veiler

Spells - 22
3x Fusion Gate
1x Terraforming
3x Miracle Fusion
3x E - Emergency Call
1x Reinforcement of the Army
3x Pot of Duality (One of these may become a mask change!)
2x Mystical Space Typhoon
1x Heavy Storm
1x Dark Hole
1x Book of Moon
1x Monster Reborn
1x Mind Control
1x Super Polymerization

Traps - 7
2x Skill drain (Might take these out for 2 more monsters)
2x Solemn Warning
1x Solemn Judgment
1x Trap Dustshoot
1x Torrential Tribute

Extra Deck - 15
3x Elemental HERO The Shining
2x Elemental HERO Absolute Zero
1x Elemental HERO Great Tornado
1x Elemental HERO Gaia
2x Elemental HERO Nova Master
1x Chimatech Fortress Dragon
1x Tech Genus Hyper Librarian
1x Trishula, Dragon of the Ice Barrier
1x Stardust Dragon
1x Number 39: Utopia
1x Number C39: Utopia Ray

Lets explain the deck. The main focus is to remove stuff with Fusion Gate and Miracle Fusion to summon the Elemental HERO Fusions. Elemental HERO The Shining allows you to get back 2 Heroes from  your Banished Zone when it gets destroyed and sent to the graveyard, allowing you to reuse your materials again. Elemental HERO Voltic allows you to special summon a banished HERO when it deals battle damage, allowing for a large hit of damage if the field allows it.

One good thing about the deck is the versatility. You generally have a nice choice of fusions monsters for the situation. If you're on the defensive then Absolute Zero can stop all attacks and stops them overextending, as well as The Shining, but it's got a beefier attack stat for getting over annoying monsters like Grapha and Hyperion.

I'll get some videos of the deck in action, so subscribe to my channel!

Yu-Gi-Oh Card Review: Naturia Ragweed

In Hidden Arsenal 4, we will be introduced to some more naturia monsters. Even though it is one of the largest archetypes in the game (Next to Worms, which is also a DT archetype), Konami insists that they don't have enough monsters already.

After looking through them, i found one that stood out, called Naturia Ragweed

Aww!

Right, down to business. Ragweed has an OK 1200 attack and a modest 2000 defence. that 2000 defence is solid enough to protect you for a turn or two. Its effect?

When your opponent activates a card that lets them draw outside the draw phase, you can send this card from the field to your graveyard to draw 2 cards.

Thats some very good draw power. The reason why im reviewing this card is because you don't need to play naturias to play this. It can be placed in any deck, and it can be sided against many meta decks. Here is a list of cards that this card works against in our current meta:

- Allure of darkness: Many DARK decks run this.
- Morphing jar: You will get to draw 7 cards (ROFL) instead of 5
- Archetype specific draw cards like destiny draw, solar recharge, cards for black feathers and Cards from the Sky (When it comes out in the summer)
- Card Trooper: Its at two now, and many decks are running this card for its milling and drawing which you can take advantage of with this card.

The problem is that a lot of decks are no longer using draw power. Searching for the cards that you want from your deck is more beneficial to deal with the current situation. Cards like Reinforcement of the army, Gateway of the six and Sangan let you search, which does not count as drawing, so you would not be able to use ragweed when they do this, which means it could become a useless card on your field

So check this card out when you open your Hidden Arsenal 4 booster box in 2 weeks time. Its probably going to be a super but i wouldn't recommend running more than 1 in your deck (Side the other two against exodia and lightsworns!)
