Big Dragons + Big Corrupted Dragons = Profit?

Strategic Summary:
Welcome back for my final CDP of the month, and this time we’re featuring the Malefic theme alongside Chazz’s Chaos Dragon monsters that made their debut in Infinite Forbidden. The Malefic theme revolves and requires Field Spells, as most of their monsters require a face-up Field Spell just to continue to exist on the board, like Malefic Cyber End Dragon or Malefic Stardust Dragon. However, their most notable unique effect is that of Malefic Paradigm Dragon, a Level 10 that requires Malefic World to be on the field. Once summoned, Paradigm can send any Malefic card from the Deck to the GY to return a banished Level 8 Synchro Monster to the Extra Deck, then Special Summon that returned monster. While this of course works with a Stardust Dragon banished to Special Summon Malefic Stardust, it works even better when you banish a Crystal Wing Synchro Dragon or Void Ogre Dragon to Special Summon Light End Sublimation Dragon or Dark End Evaporation Dragon from your hand! And that my friends, is the synergy of today’s deck.
Besides that simple combo, the rest of this build is all about putting up a big board. Whether you’re using Malefic Paradox Gear to setup a Synchro Summon using Malefic Parallel Gear and a Malefic Monster in hand or simply Fusion Summoning Light and Darkness Dragon Lord, you’ll be summoning powerful monsters with thousands of ATK points every turn. But if the duel starts dragging on too long and your Light and Darkness Dragon Lord runs out of ATK power to keep negating things, that’s where Interdimensional Matter Translocator can come into play. This Continuous Spell banishes then returns a monster to the field, resetting not only things like Lord’s ATK/DEF stats, but also the fact that a Paradigm Dragon had used its effect that turn, letting you faux-Synchro Summon yet another banished Synchro! Hope you enjoy the deck, and catch you next month with even more exciting new Creative Deck Profiles!

It’s meta?
Not really meta, this is more of a fun deck. But it has a lot of really neat card interactions that have some promise!
I would like to request a White Woods/Witchcrafter deck please (it’s been claimed to be a good combo but hasn’t appeared here yet)
or perhaps a Magistus deck of some kind (however I’m holding off on this one until OCG Stories starts giving us new Magistus cards to work with)
Also, I can’t seem to be able to make/design an Evil HERO deck without putting in a basic Yubel engine focused on getting “Yubel – The Loving Defender Forever” out
I’ll look into WF/Witchcrafter.
As far as Magistus goes, I’ve used it as an engine in a ton of unrelated builds over the years, but I don’t really think a pure build stands up all that well.
As for my take on Evil HERO… let’s just say that will be one of my next posts.
If anything, you are not short on atk points
Great deck, initially I would hope to use reverse trap to make the negates infinite, (it worked with apollousa) but since the negates here are forced, the LADDL will just negate it. but it is a way to get infinite negates after the atk becomes 0.
This doesn’t work there’s a ruling that stops it
For those checking this list, or planning to use Matter Forwarder, I recommend putting in Malefic Divide. Because it revives the monster with its effects negated, it can be banished on the opponent’s turn and returned to the field with its effects intact, and because it removes the conditions when temporarily banished, it should prevent the revived monster from being destroyed during the End Phase.
Damn, that’s an excellent idea!
