Strategic Summary:

Rev your engines, because we’re launching right into today’s CDP focused on the new Goblin Biker support cards. The Goblin Biker theme consists of Level 3 monsters of various Types and Attributes that aim to Xyz Summon and that all play with the design space of Xyz Material. For example, Goblin Biker Dugg Charger gets to Special Summon itself from the hand by detaching an Xyz Material, tutoring any Goblin Biker S/T when it does. Combine this with Goblin Biker Grand Entrance, a Normal Spell that tutors a Goblin monster, then it can detach 1 Xyz Material to Special Summon a Level 4 or lower Goblin from the hand, and you’ll quickly see consistent gains in field presence that can be converted to an imposing board. Speaking of Xyz Monsters, their primary boss is Goblin Biker Big Gabonga, a R3NK Xyz Monster that tutors any Goblin on Summon, plus when a material is detached from a monster, it can attach another face-up monster to itself as material. All of these cards have been around for quite some time now, but a brand new Goblin just showed up to change up the deck for the better: Bad-Ass Goblin Bikers (YGOrg Translation).

This new Level 6 monster can be Normal Summoned while you control no monsters or all Goblins, but when it is summoned, it Special Summons another Level 4 or lower Goblin from the hand or Deck. Where Bad-Ass really shines is its third effect, as when it is sent to the GY, it can attach any card on the field to a Goblin Xyz as material. With an in-theme Level 6 monster, it also becomes exceptionally easy to Xyz Summon Goblin’s Crazy Beast, a R6NK Xyz that can detach 2 materials to attach a S/T card on the field as material. Yeah, there’s really a lot of detaching and attaching going on here. Along with Bad-Ass, ROTA is also giving the Goblin Bikers a few new support cards, like Goblin Biker Grand Imprisonment (YGOrg Translation), which Tributes any Monster to Special Summon a Goblin from the deck, or Goblin Biker Grand Crisis (YGOrg Translation), which lets you banish a Goblin and an opponent’s card, both either from the Fields or from the GYs. In the long game, Crisis can even send itself to the GY to Special Summon 5 banished Goblin monsters, sealing the duel whenever you have to fight to the bitter end.

The second half of this deck, besides the Goblin Bikers, is chalk full of ways to control the duel or make the most of Level 3 and/or Rank 3 monsters. For example, the Speedroid engine rushes to making Xyz Material like noone’s business, while the Armored Xyz engine gives you free searches, a draw, and yet another way to attach an opponent’s card as material. Heck, even Armored Shark (YGOrg Translation) gives you another Level 3 monster to use in a pinch as Xyz Material! Enter the race, with the Goblin Bikers!
