So, Block Dragon is gone, and so is O-Lion. What is Adamancipator to do to get onto the board?
Here comes what will certainly be this format's darling for combo players, Karakuri Shogun.
The deck certainly doesn't have Block Dragon anymore. But now instead of your basic Halq combo ending on Raptite + a couple of monsters, it can end on Raptite + Savage/Dragite. The huuuuge downside is that this combo uses up all of your zones, so ideally a Linkross combo will be discovered to replace this, but in the meantime it gives you a chance to actually get on the board with Adamans, without getting lucky on your hits. The other big downside is no Apollousa for you, since Auroradon locks you out of Links, so in all probability, this is just a stop-gap. Having said that, the deck wasn't hit quite as hard as I thought it was.
I lied, you do have exactly 1 monster slot open for Koa'ki Meiru Guardian. That's awesome.
