Hell's Kitchen: The American Dream

After plenty of testing, revising, re-testing, re-revising, and coping, I've finally got a pure list that I'm comfortable with that utilizes the new support from Duelist's Advance. Chef's absolutely cracked and allows us plays through both Droll and Fuwalos (although the through-Droll plays aren't exactly super powerful, and require either hand setup or a read that Droll is about to drop), Recipe Book is an MVP in time scenarios and allows us to deal lethal without relying on game-enders such as Accesscode or Link Nephthys, and Angry is a nice consistency boost.

For a pure build, I would really recommend a small Nadir package - 3 Servant, 1 Maximus. Nadir Servant is actually a 1-card combo to a very basic board here, since you can Servant pitch Garura add Maximus, Garura draw 1, Maximus banish Garura special self, Maximus send Arc Light + Shuraig, Shuraig add Buerillabaise, Arc Light add Angry Burger, Angry add Chef, Chef add Restaurant, Restaurant add Fish Recipe, Fish Recipe Ritual Buerillabaise tributing Maximus. Obviously, you'd modify the combo based on what you have and don't have, but it's a very flexible card here that can be both starter and breaker depending on what you send. Ultimate Slayer is also added here as non-engine to synergize, since they use the same Extra Deck pitch tools.

The only thing I've been wavering on is the other non-engine slots. Fuwa and Ash are obviously staples, but I haven't decided on whether the current slate of non-engine or their ratios is correct. Right now it's fairly defensive, using Called By and Crossout (+ 1-ofs), with more of the power traps in Side, but I could see the argument for moving the other Drolls and Nibs into Main while putting cards like Sales Ban in the side to insulate from Droll.

I'm feeling fairly good with this build, though. Took it to the Premiere event, did very well. I'll probably build a Fiendsmith variant after the banlist drops - that seems to have the best synergy. But for now, I'm happy with this.
