"HATFor April 2020" Deck 2019

Playing

"Thank you for viewing my Deck." Due to the rule change in April 2020, we will repost the latest version of "HAT 2017 July Restrictions". The basic operation method is not much different from before, but I will explain it again. (If you want to see the previous commentary, please search for "HAT2017 July Restrictions".)

"First of all, when using this Deck, I would like you to remember
・Deck that kills the opponent in multiple turns
・You can't stop the opponent's full power deployment
That's the point. Please keep in mind that HAT is not a deck that does 8000 damage in one turn or completely overwhelms it, but a deck that steadily gains resources to win. Also, when considering the first turn of the opponent's full power deployment, we have 5 cards in our initial hand, and the opponent has 6 cards. Of course, if all 6 cards are used, the opponent has an advantage with 1 more card in hand. Therefore, you can't stop the opponent's full power deployment.

As explained at the beginning, this Deck cannot stop the opponent's full deployment, so it is necessary to shoot removal at the right time and create a situation where the opponent has no choice but to stop the deployment. The most common time to remove
・Before summoning a person with resistance that cannot be dealt with
・When Special Summon of destructible EX Deck monster succeeds
・Summon a searcher or recruiter with activation effect ・When Special Summon is successful
Around here. Experience is important when it comes to when to stop, so let's learn by losing many times. (It's a deck that gets stronger every time you lose.)
If you are able to stop the opponent's deployment due to interference, be sure to destroy the standing opponent's monster in battle during your next turn. (At this time, if you can adjust your monster so that it is not destroyed by your opponent, it will lead to rank 4, so it will be easier to break through, and you can save the removal for the next turn by the amount destroyed in battle.)
By repeating the above steps, the opponent's strength is well dispersed, and the opponent's strength is defeated in 2-3 times, and the hand is reduced to increase the range of our response. Making steady gains in this way is the basic tactic of this Deck.

Strength

・ High responsiveness with abundant face down cards
Since most of the cards in Deck are made of general-purpose frames, each card has a wide range of coverage, and multiple cards can be combined to handle various situations.
Artifact spells Slight resistance to trap destruction
Unlike his traditional Deck, it can trigger Artifact effects, so even if your opponent shoots his Spell/Trap cards like Harpie's Feather Broom, it may not be lethal. However, you're still at a disadvantage, so build your board so that you can accept Harpie's Feather Broom at any time.
・Cunning loop by 《Traptrix Sera》
①《Traptrix Myrmeleo》Normal Summon → add 《Treacherous Trap Hole》to your hand and set.
(2) Using Traptrix Myrmeleo as material, link summon Traptrix Sera to end the turn.
(3) During the opponent's turn, activate "Treacherous Trap Hole" → Use the effect of "Traptrix Sera" to get "Traptrix Dionaea" from the Deck Special Summon → Use the effect of "Traptrix Dionaea" to set GY's "Treacherous Trap Hole" again.
④ On his next turn, he activates 《Treacherous Trap Hole》again → With the effect of 《Traptrix Sera》, 《Traptrix Dionaea》is Special Summon → With the effect of 《Traptrix Dionaea》, he sets GY's 《Treacherous Trap Hole》again.
"Treacherous Trap Hole" can be used every turn. Note that Treacherous Trap Hole requires that he does not have a single Trap in GY. However, even if GY has Traps, the activation conditions can be met by removing all of his GY Traps at the cost of activating the effect of Fairy Tail - Snow.
・ Hand monster suicide attack loop
It's pretty strong all the time. Keep in mind that you can't get a follow-up if you can't destroy the target monster. Also, since 《Number S39: Utopia the Lightning》and other monsters with resistance are likely to be dealt with, prepare cards that can deal with them.
・WW business trip set
Basically, connect from "Wind Pegasus @Ignister" to "Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon". The effect of "Windwitch - Snow Bell" gives "Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon" resistance to destruction, so it has a high restraint ability. In addition, compared to before, Wind Pegasus @Ignister gives us 1 more removal. However, please note that 《Windwitch - Glass Bell》has a Special Summon limit other than his WIND monsters, so there are many hand monsters, 《Juragedo》, 《Fairy Tail - Snow》, 《Grinder Golem》that cannot be used. . If you can Normal Summon 《Thunder King Rai-Oh》, it will be a pretty strong board.
・《Fairy Tail - Snow》
It is a card that creates the concept of GY ad for this Deck. It is a card that can fulfill various roles according to the situation, such as interfering with the opponent, assisting deployment, and fire power for the last push. Be aware of the activation conditions of 《Treacherous Trap Hole》and make it an exclusion cost from GY's Trap.
《Vic Viper T301》
A card that supports Xyz Summons in Main 2. Since it can be activated from your hand or GY, you can draw it normally or draw it with 《Card of Demise》. Also, by turning it into an Xyz material, it will be sent to GY without being excluded, so it can be used repeatedly.
・《Card of Demise》
It is basically the strongest draw source that can draw 3 cards. Due to the nature of this deck, you can't tell if a card you put face down to avoid a disadvantage is a bluff, so it puts enough pressure on your opponent.

Weakness

・Most of the interference depends on spells and traps
Although Artifact covers it to some extent, it is weak against 《Harpie's Feather Broom》. Also, I'm not good at removing his Spell/Trap on my turn when Artifact doesn't work (such as Endsyke).
・Most of the counterattack removal is a monster effect
He uses Spells and Traps to interfere, but he mainly responds with 《Artifact Moralltach》, 《Fire Hand》, and other Xyz Monsters to counterattack after being deployed to the opponent. Therefore, it is difficult to summon monsters that are resistant to monster effects. Especially 《Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon》from WW is very strict.
・Almost all of the removal is removal by "destruction"
Almost all of this deck's removal is "destroyed", and there are no removals by "return to hand or deck (bounce)", "exclude", or "send to GY". Therefore, the current environment where his spells and traps that gain resistance to destruction by excluding GY have increased is a headwind for this deck.
・Low deployment power
Normal Summon, 《Fairy Tail - Snow》, 《Juragedo》, 《Traptrix Dionaea》, 《Vic Viper T301》, 《Traptrix Sera》are the only ways to deploy monsters on your turn. Unlike before, 《Soul Charge》is also banned, so it's not enough. Since it is basically impossible to line up two monsters in one turn and X summon, you must protect your own monsters in order to X summon.
・Low ATK
In order to preserve the removal of this Deck, the battle of your turn is important, and it is important to determine whether it can be destroyed in battle.
The maximum RBI of the main monster of this Deck is 3200, which is 2200 of 《Artifact Scythe》and the effect of 《Juragedo》. As for the monsters with his ATK beyond that, he will have to rely on removal or 《Number S39: Utopia the Lightning》, so it will be tough if he hits repeatedly. Also, since 《Juragedo》is not always available, I think that 2200 should be the standard. Examples of decks that can hit 2200 or more in a row include his TRUE, Kozmo, Darklord, Infernoid, Monarch, etc. in addition to the current environment deck, and tend to be incompatible with these decks.
・Vulnerable to exclusion gimmicks
4 Artifact monsters and 3 movements, 4 hand monsters, 1 《Vic Viper T301》, 2 《Traptrix Dionaea》, 《Fairy Tail - Snow》》There is a possibility that 15 cards in total will rot. Make sure you take care of the exclusion gimmick, as it takes away nearly half of the Deck's functionality.
・Recovery does not work
There are no cards that can be removed from GY to increase your hand. Therefore, once the field is emptied, it is quite difficult to rebuild, and in most cases it is overrun without being able to rebuild. A combo like 《Harpie's Feather Duster》→《Raigeki》will be a pretty tough fight when he destroys all of his Artifacts.
・Weak resistance
Due to the frequent use of removal, resistance is not good. His overall deck will struggle against themes like Majespecter and Kozmo, which are resistant to common effects, and cards with scapegoats such as Void Apostle and Return of the Dragon Lords.

Customize

・ Number of Artifacts
　With the rule change, it is thought that the number of Deck types that depend on the EX Deck will increase, so depending on the environment
I think it would be good to adjust the number of 《Artifact Scythe》and 《Artifact Moralltach》.
・ Types of trap holes
"Bottomless Trap Hole" and "Treacherous Trap Hole" are basically enough, but you can change them according to your environment and your tastes. However, since there is a trade-off with 《Traptrix Sera》, it is recommended to leave 《Treacherous Trap Hole》.
・About 《Number 41: Bagooska the Terribly Tired Tapir》
"Since it is a passive card, change it when necessary." If you change it to 《Castel, the Skyblaster Musketeer》, etc., the number of removals other than "destruction" will increase.
・About 《Grinder Golem》
《Grinder Golem》is used to access 《Borrelsword Dragon》, but it is prone to interference, so it is a high risk/high return. If 《Grinder Golem》is removed, 《Link Spider》, 《Security Dragon》, and 《Akashic Magician》can be exchanged, so you can freely use the Extra Deck frame. In addition, by adopting WIND Rank 4 Xyz, 《Wynn the Wind Charmer, Verdant》, in two of the empty slots, WIND Rank 4 Xyz can be summoned with two Traptrix Special Summoned by the cunning loop of 《Traptrix Sera》, and 《Traptrix Sera》You can search for 《Windwitch - Ice Bell》by summoning 《Wynn the Wind Charmer, Verdant》.
・Meta for decks that repeatedly hit high RBI
Surprisingly, the mirafo system is stabbed. In this deck, it is mainly 《Barrier of Flames - Fire Force-》that compensates for its low firepower, or 《Barrier of Ripples - Wave Force》, which easily slips through destruction resistance and is easily mistaken for an Artifact because of its slow activation. -》is used.
・《Shark Fortress》
Combined with 《Juragedo》, 1700 + 3400 + 3400 = 8500, one shot kill is possible. However, it was not used in his deck this time because it did not appear much in his impressions after using it. If you want one-shot kills or want to focus on rank 5, I think you can consider adopting it.
・《Mind Control》
In response to monsters that cannot be destroyed. The stolen opponent's monsters can be used as materials for LINK monsters.
・《Imperial Order》
A Continuous Trap card that can contain spells. It's powerful, but the only card that can actively break from here is 《Heavy Storm Duster》, and if you handle it poorly, you'll be stuck. 《Anti-Spell Fragrance》also exists as a similar card, and with this one you can at least move, so I think it's up to you which one to prioritize.
