"Jun・Insect ～Power of the Queen～" Deck 2018

Playing

"I apologize for posting for the first time." I call it the ice surface.
Speaking of Insect Decks, there are many famous categories such as the famous [Inzektor] and the promising new [Krawler]. However, this time, it will be his Deck, which is based on the concept of fighting with his Insects who do not belong to them as much as possible. As a result, for some reason, it's a deck that seems to be used by a certain bug.
"Let's get down to business."
Simply put, this deck moves with the goal of ``how quickly can you deploy Metamorphosed Insect Queen'' (hereinafter referred to as the Queen) on the field and beat her to victory? Therefore, if the Queen does not descend, I promise that I will have a very sad experience.
Now, let's explain the operation of this Deck. A very succinct summary is as follows.
《Inzektor Picofalena》
→《Cocoon of Ultra Evolution》
→Queen Advent
or
《Inzektor Picofalena》
→ Search by 《Resonance Insect》etc.
→《Pinch Hopper》or 《Parasite Paranoid》
→Queen Advent
...and repeat these movements over and over again.
Therefore, the key to the development is Inzektor Picofalena (hereafter, Pico Farena). So she? is the first step.
Pico Farena can be put into play with two of her Insects, but since Insects tend to depend on the opponent's movement in how they deploy, you'll want to actively use token generation cards at first.
I'll show you a more specific example of how to move below.
① Use 《Worm Bait》, 《Multiplication of Ants》, etc. to quickly deploy insects on the field
② With the effect of 《Inzektor Picofalena》(hereafter referred to as “Picofarena”), equip bugs such as 《Pinch Hopper》and 《Parasite Paranoid》on the field
③ Remove the bug equipped with the bug and search/summon the queen
…… By repeating the above movements, you will collect the queen in the field. The ideal for ③ is to activate 《Cocoon of Ultra Evolution》. If all goes well, two queens will descend at once.
"Is she the reason why you started from Pico Falena?" is a pseudo-Queen's Searcher/Special Summon vehicle. By equipping the insects shown below to the insects in the field and using their "effect that is triggered when sent from the field to her GY", you can connect to the queen. She's also an Insect herself, so she can help with the Queen's effect.
In her Deck, there are 4 types of 《Parasite Paranoid》, 《Pinch Hopper》, 《Resonance Insect》and 《Retaliating "C"》that are effective even if they are sent from the field to her GY as equipment cards. The former two types can be summoned from the hand, and the latter two types can search for specific insects. Let's make active use of them and "cocoon" them enthusiastically.
[Note that "Pinch Hopper" is a "time" effect that misses the timing. Please note that 《Cocoon of Ultra Evolution》cannot demonstrate its effect. ]
※↑ Postscript
After confirming, it seems that the effect of ①, Release and Special Summon, are treated as "simultaneous". Therefore, even if you activate the cocoon on an insect equipped with Pinch Hopper, you can activate the effect of Pinch Hopper without missing the timing.
"I apologize for confusing you, but this is a good miscalculation." From now on, let's let this child "cocoonize" without worrying. Yahoo.
After summoning the queen, she will devote herself to beating her opponents and protecting her queen.
"Because of the Queen's effect, the insects on the field become much stronger against opponent's effects." However, combat resistance is empty. Therefore, we will use Pico Farena's ATK enhancement effect, the ① effect of 《Parasite Paranoid》, and 《Corrosive Scales》.
"Magic Cylinder", "Scrap-Iron Scarecrow", "Quaking Mirror Force" and other effects that do not target or destroy are also threats. You can also use the effect of 《Parasite Paranoid》, or depending on the situation, you can draw 《Royal Decree》as soon as possible.
"Underground Arachnid" (hereafter Arachne) can ignore them and attack. In addition, it is also useful for removing difficult-to-handle faces in combat. It is also recommended to move the deployment target from the Queen to Arachne when the time is right. The Queen also has the ability to generate tokens every turn, so if you use them as materials for 《Multiplication of Ants》or 《Insect Imitation》, or use the movement of (Picofarena+) Searcher/Recruiter, you can get even more effective 《Infernity Beetle》. and level 4 bugs.

Strength

The strengths of her Deck are:
① Ease of searching and deploying monsters unique to Insect
(2) The queen grants resistance to all her Insects, and the overall durability that accompanies it
③ Benefits of various effects by standardizing on Insect
…… Let's mention the point.
With the appearance of "Parasite Paranoid" and "Cocoon of Ultra Evolution", Insect's unique development power has been further refined. In addition, with the appearance of Pico Farena, the effectiveness of her Insect's recruit search effect has been raised, and the issue of her Insect's deployment ability, which is "basically dependent on the opponent", has been somewhat resolved.
This pure Insect Deck is constructed to take advantage of them and connect them to the Queen, who is the cornerstone of the attack.
Combo examples are listed below. I will add and modify as I remember.
・ Activate Pico Farena ① effect on the first hand - Part 1 (3 cards required)
Summon a level 2 insect or "Primitive Butterfly" / Special Summon
→ Activate 《Worm Bait》, generate 2 tokens
→ Summon Pico Farena, activate ① effect on remaining insects (consumes hand x 1)
・ Same as above - Part 2 (4 cards required)
《Primitive Butterfly》to Special Summon
→ Activate Multiplication of Ants
→Monster Normal Summon
→ Summon Pico Farena (Omitted)
…… Depending on the monster that Normal Summons, it is possible to replenish the consumed cards.
・Utilization of the picofarena effect
Equipped with a Search/Special Summon monster that activates when sent to her GY by other insects due to the ① effect of Pico Farena (1) (hand consumption x 1)
→ Link summon Pico Falena (2) with a bug equipped with a monster and Pico Falena (1)
→ Activate Search/Special Summon effect
→ Use the ② effect of Pico Farena (2). Collect picofarena (1), link material bugs, and bugs that were treated as equipment
・Use of 《Pinch Hopper》effect
《Pinch Hopper》may miss the timing due to the optional effect of “Time”, but by placing the 《Pinch Hopper》effect on Chain 1 and combining it with other cards, you can make more effective use of its effect. .
"Parasite Paranoid" is also an effect that puts out bugs from your hand, but if there are no level 7 or higher bugs in your hand, the effect cannot be activated in the first place, so "Pinch Hopper" is a unique move.
Combination example:
《Resonance Insect》《Retaliating "C"》《Verdant Sanctuary》
・《Primitive Butterfly》and its effect + 《Insect Imitation》= Queen
・《Infernity Beetle》+ 《Resonance Insect》《Retaliating "C"》, and level 4 bugs equipped with them = 《Underground Arachnid》summon and search

Weakness

As the fate of Insect,
① "Send to GY" is blocked (《Macro Cosmos》《Dimensional Fissure》, etc.)
② Eliminate the effect (《Skill Drain》etc.)
③ Insect will be lost (《Zombie World》etc.)
④ Special Summon can be sealed
very weak to these.
Regarding ①, the effects of 《Resonance Insect》, 《Howling Insect》, 《Retaliating "C"》, 《Pinch Hopper》, 《Parasite Paranoid》, 《Maxx "C"》and the effect of 《Verdant Sanctuary》cannot be used. Also, since bugs do not accumulate in GY, he cannot use the 2nd effect of 《Doom Dozer》《Lair Wire》Pico Farena. Deadly.
Regarding ②, the problem is that the development from Pico Farena and the Queen's endurance are lost. Compared to the other two, you can still continue fighting, but the deployment speed will be slower and you will definitely have a tough fight. In addition, it is necessary to be cautious of negating effects such as 《Toadally Awesome》, which are the cornerstones of deployment.
Regarding ③, it is the most hopeless of the three. 90% of cards will have their effects blocked. Also, you will not be able to spawn Pico Farena or Arachne. You have to be very careful with vs undead decks.
④ goes without saying. With so many of her decks using Special Summons, I don't think you'll have many chances to meet her, but when you do, you'll feel sad.
She is also vulnerable to her deck, which quickly and massively deploys monsters that surpass her ATK. Due to the revision of the rules, I feel like that weakness has faded compared to before, but it's still a tough place.
"Are the typical weaknesses mentioned above?" There are still minor weaknesses, but the main challenge is to balance countermeasures against them and deployment capabilities.

Customize

As a countermeasure for the weaknesses mentioned as an issue, it is also effective to add a lot of removal cards for her spells and traps in the field.
It will be possible to take advantage of the abundant deployment power to insert "Traptrix Myrmeleo", or to insert "Swarm of Locusts" or "Krawler Axon", although it takes time to activate.
When using Trion, it is recommended to include several copies of the classic "Bottomless Trap Hole", "Break Off Trap Hole" that responds to link summons, and "Traptrix Trap Hole Nightmare", "Void Trap Hole", and "Network Trap Hole" that can suppress the opponent's development.
"Anteatereatingant" would also be effective. However, the summoning condition of sending 2 of her Spell/Trap on the field to her GY is a little troublesome. In addition, if you block "send to GY", you will not be able to summon in the first place, and you will not be able to fulfill your role. You can ignore the summoning conditions with Cocoon of Ultra Evolution, but overconfidence is prohibited.
"If you want to smoothen the summoning of Arachne, you can also consider inserting , which can be easily summoned with Insect." Due to the nature of the deck, insects tend to accumulate in the GY, so it is thought that it will not rot easily.
In addition, it seems that there is room for introducing insects such as 《Armored Bee》, 《Cross-Sword Beetle》, 《Beetron》and 《Spyder Spider》. Each one has its own benefits, so it's worth considering.
"Earthbound Immortal Uru", "Perfectly Ultimate Great Moth", etc. may be added to improve firepower, but the drawback is that both are difficult to maintain and summon. 《Cocoon of Ultra Evolution》is too convenient, so we need to be careful not to rely on it too much.
"Block Spider" and "Insect Neglect" may also be good if you want to strengthen your defense. With 《Block Spider》, it can also assist in deployment, and when combined with the effect of the Queen, an invincible (provisional) bug army will explode. It is also one of the most attractive effects.
【postscript】
I was also told about the existence of "Kumongous, the Sticky String Kaiju" and "Gadarla, the Mystery Dust Kaiju" to remove the opponent's monsters.
You'll be giving your opponent a top-tier monster, but neither of her Kaiju can match the Queen's ATK, so there's a way to deal with it. Also, by using them as sustenance for Arachne and 《Cocoon of Ultra Evolution》, you may be able to advance your development more favorably.
By using "Verdant Sanctuary", it seems possible to connect Spider Gus to the Queen and Gadara to "Doom Dozer". You can also summon Gadara by making your own Spider Gus 《Insect Imitation》.
Due to Kaiju's unique effects, you may be able to expect the following movements.
Release the opponent's monster and put Spider Gus on the opponent's field
→ Special Summon Gadara
→ Normal Summon the Recruiter or her Special Summon monster, or activate a token generation card
→ Search for the Queen while playing Pico Farena / Special Summon
As a point of caution, if you throw too much of his Kaiju into your opponent, the accident rate may increase. These are insects that should be considered, but you need to pay attention to the balance with other cards.
"That's all for now." How was it? It would be nice if I could convey it in a good way...
Insect is a race that still leaves room for consideration. There are many parts that I have not considered myself, so if I notice something in the future, I will add it each time. Personally, I'd be happy if I could get a useful spider card... No, I'm sorry. It was a serpentine foot.
"In any case, please excuse me." It's been a long time, but thank you very much for reading this far.
