With this Deck we aim to create a strong and resilient Board turn 1 to outressource our Opponent through the Grind game which the Earthbounds and Runicks offer us by abusing the effect of Harmonic Synchrofusion.
Why should I play this Deck?:
Runick/Earthbound has many advantages which include:
1. Being able to synchro into nearly every level due to how the Earthbound and Runick engine interacts (basicaly everything from 3-12 is possible)
2. The Deck has a great grindgame and rewards good deckbuilding and plays due to how Synchrofusion and the Runick extra Deck Monsters work
3. The Deck offers a great grindgame
4. The Earthbound and Runick Cores are quite small, leaving us with 9 Flex Spots for Handtraps, extenders, Powerspells etc.
5. Due to Groundskeeper, Hugin and Slumber our Fireking Matchup is quite good
6. Great Fusion/Synchro acces
What are the dissadvantages of this Deck?
1. In the current Format a lot of the Handtraps like Droll etc. can kill our Deck very easily. Depending on our Hand, even Nibiru can become a huge Problem
2. Our Monsters are light/dark which enables opponents Bystials
3. If our Groundkeeper gets negated or we are Drolled when activating sweeper, our Endboard quickly turns into Runick+Handtraps
4. The extra Deck can get quiet expensive with cards like Chaosangel, Sleipnir etc.
The most basic combo this Deck has is: Stone Sweeper/Groundskeeper+1 Runick Spell
Given the power that this first turn offers, I believe that the Deck has a lot of potential and if you have read up until here you are probably at least interested in how this Deck works. For this reason you see a Combo Guide for the most basic combo of this Deck down below
Discard Sweeper to add Groundskeeper-> Summon Groundskeeper and use his effect to summon Linewalker out of the Deck-> Linewalkers effect triggers to add Harmonic Synchrofusion to your hand-> Use your Runick Spell to Summon Hugin-> activate Harmonic Synchrofusion sending Linewalker and Hugin to summon Dragostapelia and Denglong-> Denglong effect to add 1 Nine Pillars of the Yang Zing to hand
-If you have another runick spell or drew into it via Fountain you can also summon Sleipnir and go for a synchro 10 play for either Chengying, Chaosangel or Baronne de Fleur by using Sleipnir+Groundskeeper
Endboard: Denglong+Nine Pillars, Dragostapelia, Synchro 10 and 2 cards in Hand
I hope you enjoyed this deckbreakdown and if you did I would be happy to hear your suggestions, especially for the extra Deck slots :)
