	Duelist Chronicles GX: Welcome to Duel University! [UR]
Cannot be Normal Summoned or Gear up. Must be Special Summoned (from your hand) by sending iii face-upwardly Trap Cards you control to the Graveyard, and cannot be Special Summoned by other ways. This card gains m ATK for each Continuous Trap Carte du jour in your Graveyard. Once per plough: You can target i Set Spell/Trap Bill of fare your opponent controls; destroy that target. Spell and Trap Cards cannot be activated in response to this outcome's activation.

This Deck existence nigh completely composed of Continuous Traps makes summoning Uria extremely easy. Besides, considering you lot're running mostly Continuous Traps, Uria tin hitting the field with an cool corporeality of ATK without much effort.

Some other factor that makes Uria the perfect dominate monster for this deck is his inherent Spell/Trap removal. This monster already has enough ATK to OTK through an enemy monster, backrow removal simply increases the likelihood of OTK-ing safely.

Utilise Describe Sense: High Level to fetch Uria in a Deck with no other loftier-level monsters.

Monsters Removal Tech

Lava Golem	Burn down Fiend ★8 ATK 3000 / DEF 2500
	Yami Marik [UR] Yami Marik upshot [UR] Yami Marik Starter Deck [UR]

Yous cannot Normal Summon/Set the plow you Special Summon this bill of fare. During each of your Standby Phases: Take 1000 damage.

You can even combo Lava Golem; for example summon Lava Golem to the opponent'south field and so return Lava Golem to your hand with Brionac.

Tuner

Reptilianne Lamia	DARK Reptile ★2 ATK 0 / DEF 0
	Valhalla Calling [SR]
If this card is in your manus and all monsters you control are face-up Reptile monsters (min. 1): You lot tin target one face-up monster your opponent controls; change its ATK to 0, and if you lot practice, Special Summon this bill of fare, so take impairment equal to that monster'south original ATK. If this card is sent to the GY as Synchro Material: You can target upwards to 2 face-upward monsters on the field; modify their ATK to 0. You tin can only use 1 "Reptilianne Lamia" effect per turn, and only once that turn.

Swamp Mirrorer can declare itself as a Reptile for Lamia's inherent Special Summoning effect. If you don't take Swamp Mirrorer, actuate 1 of your Trap monsters and and so Normal Summon Lamia instead to make a level-vi Synchro. If pairing Lamia with Statue of Anguish, this results in a level-9 Synchro instead. The subsequent ATK debuff is a great consequence to beatdown enemy monsters.

You mean "exist prepared to see odion in the ladder", considering I havent run into him for months.

<< Bearding

You hateful more than nothing.

ASHINJU

I absolutely honey the consistency and draw speed of this deck. Magic planter really helps when yous/your opponent think you're stuck. Sucks, considering I merely have 2 copies, but information technology saves the 24-hour interval. This deck is funky; I can't really requite you a definitive on this holding upwardly confronting the meta. So far, I've had 10-12 straight matches with a super Westward. If you guys like to experiment, try this deck! I use information technology with Axel's

Now that trap monsters don't clog backrow anymore, are they an invincible deck? Reminder that CSD with that 2500 statue means space effect destruction, and that the vast majority of this game's players only have 1 Psychoshocker.

<< Anonymous

No, they didn't. They are existence used widely today. It doesn't matter how good they are, they volition always be used a lot. The people who use them don't use them because they're proficient. I thought that was obvious. They're scum and the meridian deck to beat, always.

<< Anonymous

Ok, this guy is simply a troll.

<< Anonymous

The only person to stand to stall burn is a "troll". Ironic how yous defend exactly the deck that exists to make other players' life bad. Y'all're the troll past definition by doing so.

<< Bearding

Repeating the discussion "troll" dorsum at that person means y'all are losing it and then bad like a 4 yr old being desperate to win an statement. I would give you a napkin to wipe up your tears but I don't have whatsoever unfortunately.

Rhysk

Every bit someone who runs a Zoma/Trap Monster deck IRL, and has been running it for years, I gotta ask... why the hell are you running Swamp Mirrorer and Monarch traps, instead of Tikis? Specially if most of your synchros are level six, and neither of the Monarch traps are level 4s?

I mean, none of your tech relies on a specific blazon/attribute, so Swamp Mirrorer'southward basically a waste, compared to Tiki Expletive. None of your recommended Synchros are levels 7 and 8, and your only viii-star monster gets summoned to your opponent's field, so information technology's not like you're using Monarchs for levels and/or tribute summons. If Prime'southward in the deck for the purpose of trap recycling, you tin can easily recycle your traps back onto the field with Tiki Soul, instead of sending them back into the deck.

About of the balance of the cards I can somewhat sympathize, due to the nature of Odion'southward dueling style and/or his key monster. Notwithstanding... seriously... Monarchs and Swamp Mirrorer?

<< Bearding(Rhysk)

My gauge is that swamp mirrorer is used for lamia'southward special summon. Simply as you said, there are better options.

<< Anonymous(Rhysk)

Bruh. Out of his free will he would NEVER use Lava Golem. Stop assuming a good character would exercise unforgivable evil, just because he was forced to forgivable evil earlier.

not KoG

New rulings help you add more traps on back row. This will help protect your trap men and trap things.
