"Epic Saphira" Deck 2014

Playing

Speaking of [Holy Chronicle], it has a common effect that activates when it is released, and in the past, it became a Deck called [Holy Chronicle Gishki] in combination with [Gishki], which is easy to release as a material for rituals and has a common level. I was leaving results in the environment. However, it also became difficult to build due to the limitation of "Evigishki Gustkraken" which is a key card.
However, this time, with the introduction of "Saffira, Queen of Dragons", a Dragon Ritual Monster that shares the same level, attributes, and race as the Sacred Incarnation in "The Duelist Alliance", it is now possible to build a Ritual Deck based on the Sacred Incarnation once again. rice field. Unlike early Ritual Monsters, Ritual Monsters that have appeared in recent years have effects on both the monster itself and Ritual Spells, making them easier to use. It can be said that the compatibility with time is outstanding.

Strength

The effects of 《Saffira, Queen of Dragons》and its exclusive Ritual Spell "Hymn of Light" are as follows.
《《Saffira, Queen of Dragons》》
Ritual Monster (Effect Monster)
Star 6 / LIGHT / Dragon / Attack 2500 / Defense 2400
Descended with 《Hymn of Light》. The effect of 《Saffira, Queen of Dragons》can only be used once per turn.
(1): During the end phase of the turn in which this card was ritually summoned, and during the end phase of the turn in which this card was present in the monster zone and her LIGHT monster was sent from her hand or Deck to her GY, the following You can select and activate one of the effects.
● Draw 2 cards from her deck. Then, discard 1 card from your hand.
● Randomly choose one card from your opponent's hand and discard it to his GY.
- Choose 1 of your boyfriend's GY's girlfriend's LIGHT monsters and add them to your hand.
It's status is high for a 6 star, and it's nice that it won't be destroyed by 2500 line monsters like "Stardust Dragon" and "No.39 Utopia". As for the effect, the chances of activating it are limited, but since I use his deck, which is based on LIGHT, it's not like I have no chance to use it. Also, this effect is applied even if the opponent is his LIGHT, so it is useful against his LIGHT opponent such as [AF Chronomaly].
《Hymn of Light》
Ritual Spell
Necessary for 《《Saffira, Queen of Dragons》》.
(1): Release monsters from your hand and field so that the total level is 6 or more, and ritually summon "Saffira, Queen of Dragons" from your hand.
(2): If his Ritual Monster on his field is destroyed by battle or effect, he can exclude this card from his GY instead.
Ritual Spell for Saphira. Unlike Gishki's Ritual Spell, it's a "Level 6 or higher" release, so even if you don't match your level, it's nice to be able to use it for rituals. Also, as for the second half of the effect, although his ATK is on the high side among the higher ranks, it can be used to protect Saphira, who is likely to be easily destroyed by the highest rank.
Here are some examples of how his Deck moves:
(1) Starting from "Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands"
*It is assumed that you have either Saphira or Chant, a Sacred Time Monster, and 《Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands》in your hand.
①《Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands》to Normal Summon
② Use the effect of 《Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands》to prepare the ritual materials that are not in your hand.
③ Activate the chant, release the sacred time and ritually summon Saphira
④ Special Summon Level 4 "Alexandrite Dragon" with the effect of the released Holy Time
⑤ Summon Rank 4 Xyz with 《Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands》and 《Alexandrite Dragon》
With this, Saphira and Rank 4 Xyz line up, and you can activate any one of Saphira's effects during the End Phase. Also, if you Special Summon the tuner's "Labradorite Dragon" at level 6 instead of "Alexandrite Dragon" in step 4, you can summon "Manju of the Ten Thousand Hands" and "Labradorite Dragon" to create the powerful Synchro Monster "Guardian Beast of the Divine Tree - Fang King". You can also aim for a synchro summon.
(2): Starting from the sacred time monster
*This requires both Saphira and Hymn, "Hieratic Dragon - Tophenidragon" or "Hieratic Seal of Convocation". Also, it is assumed that there is a monster on the opponent's field.
①Since there are monsters on the opponent's field, Topheni is Special Summon
2.Releasing the Sacred Chronicles in your hand (Level 6 Topheni or Shu are good) with a hymn to ritual summon Saphira.
③ Special Summon a level 6 vanilla dragon with the effect of the released holy time
④ Xyz Summon Rank 6 Xyz with Topheni and Vanilla
Rank 6 here can summon Atumus and connect it to Redame, or you can summon other rank 6s to maintain the front. Let's assess the battle situation and use it around that.

Weakness

As expected, it's common to Holy Hour, but it's weak against Special Summon Bind and Xyz Bind. Also, since there are many monsters with a higher level, is there a reasonable accident rate? After that, as a common weakness of Ritual Monster, the large amount of hand consumption is also a slight bottleneck.

Customize

In order to actively activate Saphira's effect, it would be nice to have a LIGHT monster that can be easily sent to GY.
I haven't put it in due to space restrictions, but "Honest" and "Rainbow Kuriboh" to protect Saphira, which has a subtle ATK, may be synergistic with the attributes.
