You only need 2
Dark Magician, if you want to build a house... play 3.
Play 3
Red-Eyes Fusion, those 3 are not bricks! You can use 1 copy to summon Dragoon and the other 2 as discard fodder for Dragoon negate or Magicians' Souls. Some players only play 1 copy, and if their 1 and only copy got negated... then what?
1 card leads to Dragoon:
If you meet the condition, you can activate
Sky Striker Mobilize - Engage! then search for
Sky Striker Mecha - Hornet Drones, activate it to summon 1
Sky Striker Ace Token, tribute that token for
Sky Striker Ace - Kagari, using her effect, target
Sky Striker Mecha - Hornet Drones from your GY and add it back to your hand. Now use
Sky Striker Ace - Kagari as a material to summon
Sky Striker Ace - Kaina (you need her link marker),
again activate Hornet Drones to summon 1
Sky Striker Ace Token (you will gain 100LP). Use the token as a material to summon
Link Spider. At this point, your opponent still thinks you're using a Sky Striker Deck. Now surprise your opponent by sacrificing
Kaina and
Link Spider to summon the
Predaplant Verte Anaconda then summon
Red-Eyes Dark Dragoon.
(You can also start by just
Sky Striker Mecha - Hornet Drones)
You can chain link
Sky Striker Mecha - Eagle Booster to protect your Anaconda from
Effect Veiler or
Infinite Impermanence. You can also use it as a Discard Fodder for Dragoon or Magicians' Souls.
