ARCHETYPES AND DECKBUILDING
Forming the main body of the strategy, the ABC cards compose of 13 cards: 3 B-Buster Drake, 2 C-Crush Wyvern, 2 A-Assault Core, 1 Union Driver, 3 Union Hangar, 1 Terraforming and 1 Set Rotation. In the Extra Deck there are 2 ABC-Dragon Buster.
Functioning as a supporting engine to the ABC cards, the ADVENTURE package is composed of 8 cards: 3 Water Enchantress, 2 Rite of Aramesir, 1 Fateful Adventure, 1 Dracoback, and 1 Wandering Gryphon Rider.
The THERION package is tiny since it is highly searchable: 2 Therion Discolossseum and 2 Regulus. In the Extra Deck, there is 1 Springans Merrymaker and 1 Gigantic Champion Sargas so they can search out Regulus.
The small but impactful SYNCHRON package is only composed of three cards: 3 Revolution Synchron. In the Extra Deck There is 1 AFD and 1 Crystal Wing.
The rest of the cards are STAPLES. 3 Pot of Prosperity is used to increase the consistency of this deck (it's kind of bricky). 10+ handtraps are used in this deck so it can play second after weakening/stopping your opponent's strategy.
COMBOS AND GAMEPLAN
The entire ABC combo line is now protected by Crystal Wing through Revolution Synchron and the Adventure Package - so if you open with either of these engines, you can protect your main combo.

GENERAL TIPS
- While piloting this deck, I discovered that it's REALLY easy to misplay. Certain actions (Like A-Assault recovering an ABC from GY) prevents certain plays from happening (like ensuing there are at least 1 of each ABC monster in the GY to special summon ABC Dragon Buster). It's important to practice a lot with this deck so you can memorize the combos!
- This deck's combos are different with every hand. Be sure to practice the combos to know which combos are optimal for whatever cards you open!
- If you get Droll'd or Shifter'd, make Bagooska and pass turn so you can wait out the turn-stopping lingering effect which stops the main combo cold.
- Going first, this deck has a high power ceiling and a strong board most decks would have difficulty cracking. Going second however, this deck central combo doesn't really play through much interruption.
- Despite this deck's consistency boosted by Revolution Synchron and AFD, it's still somewhat bricky. This deck features 4 bricks out of a 40 card deck, so there is a relatively large chance you draw into one of them.
- For paying the cost of Pot of Prosperity, keep in mind which Extra Deck cards you'll use for the duration of the duel. My favourite 6 Extra Deck cards to banish are Knightmare Phoenix, Knightmare Unicorn, Underworld Goddess, Avramax, Springans Merrymaker and Gigantic Champion Sargas.
- While going second, play the Adventure package first to bait out interruption before going for the main combo. Gryphon's omni-negate and Dracoback's target bounce puts immense pressure on your opponent to react.
- Before activating ABC Dragon Buster's triple summon from the banished pile, be sure to use Regulus' or Gryphon Rider's omni-negate first so you clear a space on your board for the summon of three monsters at once. Want to see the deck in action? Scroll to the very bottom for the Youtube video!
