Second only to Ishizu Tearlaments, Spright Runick is arguably still the current reigning champion of Masterduel meta as of September 2023.
Another great incentive to pilot this deck right now is that it is the strongest strategy that makes amazing use of I:P Masquerena! So if you pulled her recently released alternate art, then I highly recommend playing Spright Runick so you can watch her glorious animation again and again!
The ridiculously strong combination of Spright and Runick's smothering control and endless grind game create a deck that all strategies would have to fear and respect. Sprights ending on 3-5 interruptions (Sprind's bounce, Red's monster negate, Carrot's S/T negate, Smasher's banish, and I:P Masquerena's quick link) combined with Runick's draw 3 and multiple quick play spells generally stop any deck cold in their tracks. Both archetypes combined have a potential 10+ interruptions for your opponent to slog through, while maintaining a superior resource loop - outpacing most other strategies!
