Beyond the Pendulum Combo Deck

Use BTP to do cool stuff.

This description is outdated, I'll write a new one at some point.

"""Main Deck

Odd-Eyes Arc Pendulum Dragon is fine at two because its searchable with Beyond and Revolution Dragon and its better to have 2 Arc Pendulum and 3 Revolution because if you need Darkwurm or Persona instead Revolution is a more versatile card to have drawn. Dragonpit is at one to deal with floodgates like summon limit or mystic mine and its also very searchable with Pendulum Call and Duelist Alliance to search out Pendulum call. Dharma-Eye is just the best Level 7 Scale 3 or lower Magician Pendulum Monster, giving destruction protection to all of your Magicians for a turn when you Pendulum summon making, it in my opinion, better than the obscure Xiangke and situational Dragoncaller but its effect doesn't come up too often so feel free to substitute it for any of the other two or even another Dragonpit. Gate Zero is at 2 so that your Darkwurm and Dragon Shrines + Foolish Burial are live even if you draw into one copy and its ok to open because its a good scale and useful level for making Absolute. Chronograph is one of your nine starters and its pretty versatile, being useable as a scale 8 and getting you a level 3 magician to make Dawn Dragster if you haven't got the resources to spare for a Celestial. Persona is at one as a low scale to be searched out with Revolution Dragon and a good target for Hieratic if you brick and can't make a full board, its also useful to bring out turn 3 as another negate by searching it out with Skullcrobat. Speaking of Skullcrobat I would run it at three if it were unlimited because its an amazing Stratos-Like Effect that searches your entire deck and its just a shame that is good scale of 8 is hampered by that restriction stopping you from summoning any Supreme King Monsters with it, its the card you want to add off Celestial for follow up plays next turn. Darkwurm comes up a bit too much at three so two is fine to keep your Dragon Shrines live and Still normal summon it occasionally and Darkwurm is at its best if you discard it as the cost for Pendulum Call to then summon it back and essentially go +3, gaining a card on field and a card in hand as well as fetching a Harmonizing to Pend summon later and get its +1 effect. Performapal Celestial Magician is the best scale 8 to end on and you will always want to pend summon it or normal summon it to make Beyond rather than summoning it from deck with Harmonizing so that you can add a Skullcrobat in the end phase. Curtain Raiser needs a reprint and will probably never get one because Konami hates Pends and it serves as the worst starter that you are forced to play because since Astrograph was banned we are in need of more Pends with Special summon effects to use to make Beyond. Harmonizing Magician is amazing and you will usually want to try to use it to summon Dragonpit to make absolute and then tune it with Celestial or if you must because of a bad hand tune it with Timegazer to make Dawn Dragster. Timegazer is a one of garnet that's is absolutely terrible to draw and is only here to be summoned off of Chronograph as a starter. Allure of Darkness is a staple in any deck running DARK Monsters and if you haven't noticed all but two of our main deck Monsters are DARK so run three. Dragon Shrine is the best starter because dumping Darkwurm is great and probably better than Chronograph because its just a more useful type of card advantage than extra spellcasters with bad levels. Duelist alliance is essentially more copies of Pendulum Call and if you already have a Pend Call you can search Arc Pendulum, its also fine to open multiple cos you can search with one then discard the second to activate Pend Call. Foolish Burial is just another Dragon Shrine. Pendulum Call is amazing and I will never run less than three in any deck I ever make ever, you can discard Darkwurm for good advantage and a starter or just discard another card that you opened too many of or isn't live at the moment and it has a neat interaction with celestial where if you use Celestials Pendulum Effect it won't be able to destroy itself but the effect can still resolve. Upstart Exists, always play one in every deck ever unless its a burn deck.

Extra Deck

Odd-Eyes Vortex Dragon is easily the best Odd-Eyes Monster being able to shuffle back you previously used Pendulums to Negate anything except a Spell/Trap that activates from the GY, I usually put it in defense position because 3k is pretty good and you can always switch its position next turn. Zeus is hilarious to make going second and the best way to make it is with Utopia int Utopia Prime attack into 4-Material Zeus in MP2. Absolute Dragon is a key combo Piece that you use to make a three material Apolluosa with Beyond and another random Monster meaning it will then float into a vortex as soon as it hits the GY, its other effect is pretty nice to being able to bring back an Arc Pendulum if it negates an attack. Utopia the Lightning is good for Bonking stuff like Dragoon to death and dealing game damage if your opponent is low. Utopia Prime has an effect that might go off like once ever and is mainly a stepping stone to get Lightning and Zeus to 4 materials. Same goes for the regular No. 39. Dark Rebellion is great for doing massive damage and is just fun to use. I've been leaning more towards Adamancipator Risen - Dragite as my ending Level 8 Synchro because you can revive it with Celestial and we already have quite a few Monster Negates so I think it may actually be better to run than Savage Dragon in this deck. Ignister Prominence is the best sort of removal ever and is good to use later game as spot removal, the summon ability is ok so play a single Luster or Master Pendulum if you feel like it. Clear Wing is this decks only board wipe and it also has a pretty good Construct-like effect to destroy before damage calc so its good to have as an option. Dawn Dragster is a good Level 7 to make if you have a Timegazer in your extra deck and one level 7 when you search Harmonizing with Beyond but you don't have any Level 4 Magicians to make Savage/Dragite. Apollousa is possibly the best unbanned/unerrated link 4 in the game and it shows, you wanna make it with Beyond, Absolute and whatever random starter you have left to give it 2400 ATK and still have enough monsters to make a Level 7/8 Synchro, if you can afford it then maybe Unchained Abomination or a Borrel Link 4 would do as a substitute. Beyond the Pendulum is Insane, it searches out any combo piece and has a really good boardbreaking effect that is incredibly easy to chainblock with Harmonizing Magician or Darkwurm, its nuts and I am super Hyped for Dimension Force. Hieratic seal is the last resort option to make if you brick with no starters, get out four monsters, make an absolute then make a Hieratic with the Absolute to get vortex and then when you use Hieratic, summon Persona Dragon is defense position.

Side Deck

this side deck is pretty broad for going against loads of different decks and its also a bit pricey. Sphere Mode is fucking bullshit and if you're willing to give up your normal summon basically any board is toast before it, maybe replace it with a Kaiju if its to expensive. Lava Golem is cheap and is basically a slightly worse sphere mode that still packs one hell of a punch being able to tribute two monsters is still enough to break a lot of boards. Dark Ruler No More, its really great in in this deck fits better than Droplet, Book of Eclipse is an ok alternative if you can't afford a playset of DRNM. D Barrier is possibly one of the most unfair cards that's still legal and since the current Meta is basically free of tribute and Link archetypes aside from Flunders its incredibly lethal to flip as soon as you recognize what deck your opponent is playing. Lastly Judgement is still such a strong card and can stop enemy DRNM or an important summon so yeah pretty good for such ancient card and its always live even if you're at 1 LP.'''

I'll try to list a YouTube video of how to do the main combo at some point if I remember or someone comments telling me too. Also please Konami free our beloved Astrograph and Electrumite and maybe even Monkeyboard if you're feeling generous.
