Xyz Trains - Master Duel - May '22 Update

For those that already played this deck and are just interested in the changes, check the changelog at the bottom of this section.

This is an OTK deck that wants to Go Second, interrupt of break your opponent's first turn plays and run them over in turn 2.

The deck's main goal is to attack with a 6000 ATK Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Juggernaut Liebe with an Infinitrack Goliath as material, supported by Outrigger Extension, for an untargetable, undestructible OTK.

Infinitrack Goliath can be Link Summoned by tributing any 1 Infinitrack monster and can be sent to the graveyard to trigger its attach effect by either one of the Level 5 Main Deck monsters, any of the Xyz Infinitracks already in the GY, or by linking it up to a Double Headed Anger Knuckle. You want to have a Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Gustav Max already summoned when you do this, something the whole deck is designed to turbo out in any way possible. Then you can Xyz Summon Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Juggernaut Liebe on top of the Gustav Max, activate its effect and attack for game. There are also a lot of handtraps and backrow removals to help you clear any inconveniences before you begin your plays.

Super Polymerization is here to help deal with the meta's most annoying turn-1 play, Destiny HERO - Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer. Swordsouls always have a Baronne de Fleur on the field as well, our Idaten the Conqueror Star can use both of them as materials and is also Level 10. Despias have Masquerade the Blazing Dragon, our Starving Venom Fusion Dragon can use both of them (or another Despian if DPE is not on the field). Earth Golem @Ignister is the only guy that can see Apollousa, Bow of the Goddess as material and is remotely possible to be Fusion Summoned. Even if you draw Super Polymerization and there are no valid plays with it though, it can either bait an opponent removal effect or be used as discard fodder for Revolving Switchyard.

Note 1: Be aware that although Outrigger Extension is a great piece of support for your Xyz Machines, its Rank-Up effect restriction can lock you out of Photon Strike Bounzer, Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS - Sky Thunder and Super Polymerization. It can always be activated after these cards though, without problems. Infinitrack Brutal Dozer has the same restriction on its search effect.

Note 2: There is a Side Deck section in this deck that lists a number of handtraps. These cards have all been tested and proven less useful against the meta, but they're still quite strong, and more importantly, they're quite strong against us. If you find yourself losing to any of them consistently, you can add a single copy of them into the deck as a target for Crossout Designator.

May '22 Changelog

It's the Destiny HERO - Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer era, and we have to adapt to it. Also, Swordsoul and Despia decks are everywhere and they're annoying, so it's time someone punishes their hype.
- Ruffian Railcar and Flying Pegasus Railroad Stampede have been removed from the deck. They are both too slow for the current format. Both ended up just serving as Urgent Schedule targets, but since neither can link into an Infinitrack Goliath, they were suboptimal even then.
- Infinitrack Anchor Drill went up to 3. A better Urgent Schedule target that the two above, also its NS effect can become a lot more relevant due to other additions in the deck that block Super Express Bullet Train's self SS effect. It's now the second main NS of the deck.
- Night Express Knight cut down to 1. Takes up the NS of the turn, which is suboptimal and slows down the deck, also room was needed for more handtraps. Stayed to 1 instead of being removed completely because it's still a target for Revolving Switchward in a handtrap heavy opening hand that needs a way to trigger one of the other two Level 10 SS.
- Infinitruck Tunneler removed from the deck. It was the least useful Level 5 Infinitruck and the space was needed.
- Outrigger Extension down to 1 and 3 Heavy Forward added. Outrigger is searchable and its searcher is also searchable. Heavy Forward is 3 more Infinitrack Harvester, or any other Infinitrack if you already have the short dude.
- Nibiru, the Primal Being, Evenly Matched and Infinite Impermanence have been removed from the deck. While still exceptionally good cards, I have noticed them impact less games less heavily in the current format. Also read "Note 2" for more on this.
- 2 Called by the Grave and 3 Crossout Designator added to the deck. These are mainly handtrap protection, they support the OTK capabilities of the deck immensely. Called by the Grave can also interrupt plays and remove Destiny HERO - Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer, albeit after its destruction effect. Crossout Designator can block any card you happen to have in your deck, and since we also play a heavy amount of destruction spells, this is probably the most useful handtrap in the deck now.
- 2 Super Polymerization added to the deck, along with 3 Fusion and 1 Link targets, Starving Venom Fusion Dragon, Earth Golem @Ignister, Salamangreat Almiraj and Idaten the Conqueror Star. This engine is the best board breaker of the current meta. Let's admit it, Destiny HERO - Destroyer Phoenix Enforcer is everywhere now. Idaten the Conqueror Star is the heavy lifter against Swordsouls, since they also go to a Baronne de Fleur, he can use both of these as materials. Starving Venom Fusion Dragon is the star against Despia and can also out the Enforcer in any deck that brings him with Predaplant Verte Anaconda, since they're both Dark. Earth Golem @Ignister coupled with Salamangreat Almiraj can out any Link monster (I'm looking at you, Apollousa, Bow of the Goddess). Almiraj does need either a normal summoned Infinitrack Harvester or a Night Express Knight, so there goes the turn's NS.
- 1 Photon Strike Bounzer added to the Extra Deck. There will be a lot of times that you'll end up with both an Infinitrack Anchor Drill and an Infinitrack Harvester in the field. Using either of their on-field effects on the other can result in a Rank 6 play, and this dude can block a negate/destruction monster effect to help you get to Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Juggernaut Liebe easier. It does block Super Express Bullet Train's ability to SS itself though, so keep that in mind (and hence 3 Infinitrack Anchor Drills now in deck).
- Cyber Dragon engine removed from the Extra Deck and Infinitrack Goliath went down to 1. There are only 3 Level 5 Infinitrucks in the deck now, and our first Rank 5 play is always through an Infinitrack Brutal Dozer search that restricts us to Earth Machine monsters. It was rarely used and the room was needed. A second Goliath was also rarely used, and the deck can live without it if it already went through enough interruption to be able to use it. Again, room was needed.
