Fusion Tales of Totemic Skull Merchant

(Note: This deck requires serious calculations, which depends on how many cards you have in Main Deck.)

Hi! In this deck, we will use Fusion Gate to FTK the opponent while finding combo pieces naturally in a way that you feel you were playing in Fusion Gate event. If you don't know how to play Isolde decks, you can check this guide! However, there are few differences from the original guide...

• After Selene#1, Monk won't place Uppercutter + Sparrer at first. Instead, it will be Makyura to activate Skull later on. Then, Selene#2 = Selene#1 + Monk + Makyura will be done, where you will bring Uppercutter + Sparrer to make Dempsey, which searchs Renaud to find Cursed for two Monk usages.
• Selene#3 = Selene#2 + Monk + Dempsey is new if compared to guide. Selene#3 + Renaud = Zealantis is your new equation before the reset.
• Rest of guide is quite similar.

Gameplan

1) Find the following combo pieces with these cards:

• Mark >>> Temple
• Lilith >>> Chain Material
• Catty >>> Fusion Gate

2) Activate these three, so that "Fusion Gate" can also use your Main Deck. First, bring forth Tornado by using Stratos + Kaitoptera. This is done to place Kaitoptera.

3) With Monk+Mark+Catty+Kaito present, XYZ Summon Alembertian with all of them as materials to find Skull but don't activate it yet. Next, place Ham to bring forth Merchant as face-down. Then, count how many Main Deck cards you have, which is important for next step...

• If Clock Wyvern was in your hand, (Main Deck - 17) equation gives you how many Warriors you need to banish from Main Deck for Wake Up.
• If Clock Wyvern was in your deck, (Main Deck - 18) equation gives you how many Warriors you need to banish from Main Deck for Wake Up.
• Before moving onto next step to place Wake Up, don't banish these following Warriors by accident, as they are combo pieces; Avian + Burstinatrix + Clayman + Bubbleman + A/D Changer + Cross Keeper + Isolde.

4) In line of #3, let's assume Main Deck has 29 cards after Ham placed Merchant as face-down and Wyvern was in Main Deck. After Wake Up is present, that means you should have 18 x Main Deck cards. So, you have to banish 11 x Warriors from your Main Deck but there is a catch due to UI of Master Duel...

• First, pick Tornado.
• Second, don't pick anything from Main Deck. Only hand or GY.
• Third, count only 11 x Warriors from Main Deck and don't pick anything extra. Afterwards, pick up as many Warrior as you can from hand or GY.

5) After the revision of Main Deck amount, Fusion Summon Cyberse Clock Dragon via Gate by picking up Wyvern first and all Links at last. If you have done everything correct in #3 and #4, Clock Dragon should empty your whole Main Deck. After the huge mill, don't forget to use "Laundry Trap" to fetch "Chain Material".

6) Place Electrum to recover your resources, where Main Deck consists of only monsters. Besides, use 2 x Selene to revive Moon + Sky, which will be used to XYZ Summon Trapeze High Magician.

7) Use Gate to place Tornado by using Electrum + Kaitoptera as materials. Afterwards, activate Cross Keeper + Skull Invitation + Totem Pole. Here is what is going on...

• Huge mill done in #5 was to unlock Totem Pole, where effect damage will be doubled thanks to 3 x Rock with 0 ATK and different names being sent to GY.
• Cross Keeper is here to put Chain Material on bottom of Main Deck.

8) After the activation of Skull Invitation, use A/D Changer to flip Merchant. Thanks to Chain being put on bottom of Main Deck in #7, Merchant is going to mill all monsters until you find Chain. With Skull and Trapeze combination, you will reflect huge damage back at your opponent, where you would have taken otherwise due to Skull.
