"The Phantom Knights" Deck 2015

Playing

Finally, The Phantom Knights appeared, so I tried to build it immediately. When you actually move it, it seems that you can fight quite tenaciously with the Phantom Trap that is activated by Field GY. The first move is to create Dante with Death Guide and 3 stars + Kagemucha Knight, and start by fertilizing GY. When you are ready to a certain extent, it is common to X-summon Breakswords and remove them while beats or destroying the Breakswords themselves to re-deploy The Phantom Knights and connect them to Dark Rebellion.

Strength

Rugged Grove's ATK 1000 increase is soberly strong. Destroy the break sword with its own effect to revive The Phantom Knights including Ragit, and when the break sword is destroyed, SS Fragile Armor will line up three 4 stars. You can get high ATK by connecting to Ouroboros or Rhongomiant from there. However, the ATK increase effect is a mandatory effect and has a turn 1 limit, so even if it is used as a material for Break Sword, the subsequent X monsters will not increase his ATK, so be careful. By the way, if you X-summon a Rhongomiant with 3 Xyz materials using Ruggit Gloves as a material, Rhongomiant says that it cannot be affected by effects other than this card. ATK can be increased without being affected by resistance. In other words, if the X material is 3 at the time of using Rugged Gloves as a material, you can create a Rhongomiant with ATK 4000 DEF 3000 and resistance to battle and effects. Regarding this matter, it is also written on the Rhongomiant and H.C. Extra Sword wikis, so please check them out.

Weakness

The start is slow because it starts with fertilizing GY. Of course, SS containment and exclusion are NG. Also, if the fight drags on, he will run out of GY, so if you can decide, it's safer to decide on that turn. Phantom Trap can be removed from his GY with a free chain because of his trap, so I think it's main use will be to revive the monsters that chase it during the battle phase.

Customize

The 3 types of anime originals are excellent, but the 2 types of Konami originals are difficult to use. Fragile Armor is still worth adopting as it can be used for combos and walls in case of emergency as explained above, but as for Crack Helm, neither of the effects 1 and 2 can work well in The Phantom Knights, especially 2 is anti It is no exaggeration to say that there is synergy, so we are currently shelving adoption. In the future, if Yuuto reappears and the card pool increases, I can have high hopes, but the current situation is not promising, so I'm satisfied with the current form. It seems that there is a turn in the manga a little, so it seems that you can expect it there.
