I hope you’re continuing to relegate your breathing, in….. and out….. It’s time for you to continue along your spiritual journey. If you did not get a chance to read my previous article on Heavenly Spirits, please take the time to do so by clicking here, because this article is an extension of that concept into a variant in a more similar vein to a Fairy-centric deck that you should recognize. Hang on to your incense, cause we’re about to perform some rituals!

To those of you who were reading the Legacy of the Valiant ‘More Early Spoilers’ post, some of you saw the new Gravekeeper support and sighed in frustration. Others saw the new Ghostrick Skeleton and realized just how versatile the ghastly archtype could become. And yet even more saw the Shinra as a unique theme that people did not see coming from the initial reveal of their boss, Shinra no Morigami Arusei. Right on its heels, the moment of silence for the poor Advance Devoter who had so much potential until the seemingly useless restriction upon Special Summoning him beyond his effect. Then…

It’s time for another overview of a forgotten archetype, ignored ever since that lovely 5D’s story arc: the Dark Signers and their signature Earthbound Immortals. Sealed away 5000 years before by the Crimson Dragon, the Level 10 DARK monstrosities became locked in stone, represented by the Nazca Lines. They were eventually released in a scientific failure, resulting in a danger to the world itself! Each colored after a different hue of the rainbow, the Earthbound Immortal are each pictured as an evil embodiment that emerged from ruptures in the lines themselves. Choose your immortal, because all of them are not…

Welcome to our meditation sequence! Breathe in… breathe out. Feel the spiritual energy envelop you in its tender care. As you breathe, reflect on the power of those Spirit monsters you’ve seen. You don’t see them for long, however, you remember that they are omnipresent in some duels. These monsters may only have a short while to perform on the field, but they have learned to maximize their effectiveness with their powerful abilities. It’s time for you to enter the Spirit Realm; join our seance, join our domination!

Now that we’ve covered an introduction and the support to this grand archetype, it is finally time to begin diving into the many options you have for building a Koa’ki Meiru deck! This article will be focusing on two of the most effective Koa’ki Meiru variants. First is a variant that just recently hit its stride due to the new Beast-Warrior support in the form of Fire Formations, and the second has proven its power spike following the support from Return of the Duelist!  Neither is considered a pure variant, but let’s jump right in!

Now that you’re acquainted with the archetype as a theme, it’s time to check out how the Koa’ki Meiru are supported. This article will attempt to dissect and offer insight into themed support cards that have a chance of landing in your deck, and will hopefully guide you. There are many ‘fake techs’ to be wary of before embracing the core, be careful of cool cards that just can’t hold their weight! Without further ado, let’s tap into the potential of the Core!

Experience the first archetype centered around a single Spell Card! And this Spell Card can’t even be activated from the hand! Check out the Koa’ki Mieru, a hodgepodge of monsters spanning various Types and Attributes, strategies and play-styles, and even restrictions and costs! The only thing holding the archetype together is the core and your skills as a deckbuilder in order to tap into its potential! Are you devoted to the core?

Welcome to the Arena, because the warriors have arrived! Hailing as an Archetype that began their five minutes of fame in the Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL anime, the Heroics are an elite group separated into 2 sub-groups, the Heroic Challengers serving as the Effect Monsters and the Heroic Champions serving as the Xyz boss monsters.
