Oddly Venomized Panda

(Update-I: Removed Risebell and added "Star Changer". Permanent level raiser, which means you don't have to play Risebell two times each turn.)

Greetings! I have brought you a puzzle-worthy deck, where you will be bamboozled. It's about bypassing the text of "Independent Nightingale", which mentions "unaffected by other cards' effects", meaning that you can't negate Independent so easily. What if I told you there is a workaround? If Supreme is going to be banned in Master Duel one day, which is already the case in TCG but not in OCG for some reason, this deck will achieve exactly the same play-style but with some extras as Starving Venoms. Let's jump in!

Gameplan

1) Reach the situation as illustrated:

• For context, Arcana was Special Summoned with Saryuja. When "Light Barrier" is present, you can change the outcome of Arcana to heads to always skip your opponent's turn at the cost of delivering two monsters you control to GY. These will be Panda and Spirit.
  • To not miss out anything, change the button on the lower right corner of the screen to either "ON" or "Auto". It can be changed within settings under "Duel", where you can change "Activation Confirmation" to "Switch + Hold" for manual setup.
• You don't have to bring forth Assembled and Venemy on first turn but I did it anyways. Note that you have to place Assembled onto Extra Monster Zone (EMZ) and Venemy on Main Monster Zone (MMZ). You will see why later on.
  • To place Assembled on EMZ, you have to destroy Saryuja with "Offerings to the Doomed".
• Don't forget to place ME-PSY-YA on Pendulum Zone and Special Summon Chaos Emperor Dragon. This setup is needed to find key cards with "Primal Seed". As long as you target "Primal Seed" each other alongside combo pieces, everything will be fine.
• Also, set "Fiendish Chain" and "Primal Seed". Since "Into the Void" was played beforehand, every spell will be banished instead of being delivered to GY thanks to ME-PSY-YA. Thus, it's vital to have "Primal Seed" with you.
• Although not seen in this picture, either discard Beatraptor + Risebell with Ravenous or have them in your hand to be delivered to GY via "Into the Void" later on.

2) Thanks to Arcana, it's your turn now. There is still much to do:

• In this picture, you can see every combo pieces you are going to use. "Fusion Tag" will be the most important one.

3) First, we can start bringing forth Independent Nightingale:

• In these pictures, you can see "Fusion Tag" being used on Flamvell to change its name into "Lyrilusc - Independent Nightingale". Mind you, in order to Fusion Summon "Independent Nightingale", you need "Assembled Nightingale" and one any Lyrilusc monster. Since "Independent Nightingale" is a Lyrilusc monster, you can cheat out Independent with Assembled + Flamvell, all thanks to editing name of a monster you control with "Fusion Tag". Crazy, ain't it?
• Remember the situation about Independent, which was about "unaffected by other cards' effects"? By placing Independent on EMZ while Beatraptor is around, you can completely negate her, as long as Independent is present only on EMZ. To make her completely negated wherever she will be, activating "Fiendish Chain" and targeting on Independent will be enough. She can't be a free bird anymore and will be imprisoned by Starving Venom brothers, coming soon.

4) Then, time to bring forth other Starving Venom brothers, namely "Starving Venom" and "Odd-Eyes Venom":

• Since all Starving Venom brothers can only target your opponent's monsters on the battlefield, you have to give your opponent Independent with "Shien's Spy" first.
• Then, Fusion Summon "Odd-Eyes Venom" on EMZ. As explained in #3, you can change names of monsters you control with "Fusion Tag". Target one with "Starving Venom" and other one with "Odd-Eyes Venom". Since those monsters have "Starving Venom" and "Odd-Eyes" in their names, you can cheat out "Odd-Eyes Venom".
• Finally, Fusion Summon "Starving Venom" by having two DARK monsters on the field. Simply revive either 2 x Exodia pieces or 2 x Monks with "Monster Reborn" and use them as Fusion Materials. There is no need for "Fusion Tag" for this one...
  • In order to let "Starving Venom" copycat Independent like his other brothers, you have to raise the level of Independent to 5 or above. Fortunately, "Star Changer" can raise her level permanently. Just play it four times on Independent and you are good to go.

5) Copycat Independent with Starving Venom brothers. Afterwards, pull the trigger with everyone to shoot your opponent down for fatality:

6) In case your opponent is still alive and you need to take extra turns with Arcana, here is the order without breaking your setup:

• These pictures describe a "what if" scenario, not what was actually transpired on Ranked. Done on PvE mode but still holds water for Ranked as well.
• To sum up, you need to use the ability of Arcana to send "Starving Venom" and Exodia piece first. Then, return Independent to your home.
• Then, like before, give Independent to your opponent with "Shien's Spy". Afterwards, revive "Starving Venom" with "Monster Reborn" and play as usual.

If you wonder how to save up some SR and UR points, I can show you:

- "Monster Reborn" is given for free, if you have completed the tutorial before to save 30 UR!

- "Pot of Avarice" can be collected by purchasing "Re-Contract Universe" deck. 90 SR saved and you can try a new deck!
