Strategic Summary:
Welcome back for another CDP, and today we’re leveraging the new Train support to add consistency to the Boss Rush-ing B.E.S. legacy support. To modernize the B.E.S. theme, they received a few powerful cards – first up is Super B.E.S. Metal Slave, a Level 11 Machine that summons itself by sending up to 5 B.E.S. monsters from the Deck to the GY, gaining Counters equal to the number sent. Once on the field, Slave can remove a Counter to destroy 2 face-up cards on the field, including a B.E.S. monster you control. Clearly this is intended to pair well with Boss Rush, since Rush gets you a new B.E.S. monster during the End Phase of a turn a B.E.S. was destroyed, but you don’t need Rush to make the most use of this! The other new B.E.S. monster is B.E.S. Derringer Core, a LIGHT Level 10 Machine that can remove a counter to either tutor Boss Rush or a S/T that mentions it, or to Special Summon a Level 9 or lower B.E.S. from your GY. While the Train level is nice, the greater impact is that this new Core gives you a greater ability to access Link Monsters without slowing down your momentum in the duel. As for the final notable support card, Boss on Parade is a new Continuous Spell that adds consistency, tutoring a B.E.S. on activation and being able to be banished from the GY to place Boss Rush onto the board.
Alright, enough about the B.E.S., let’s talk Railway (aka Trains) next. These Level 10 Machines aim to Xyz Summon big monsters, and the new Railway support is nothing to scoff at. Noctilucent Train Bleu Traveler (YGOrg Translation) is up first, able to be discarded to tutor Revolving Switchyard or Train Connection, then once per duel while it is in the GY, it can summon itself and another EARTH Machine from the GY. Of course this triggers Qliphort Helix, but the more important element is the free material that allow you to make another Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Gustav Max during your turn! The Railway theme also got another great consistency card in Exceptional Schedule (YGOrg Translation), a Spell that tutors Urgent Schedule then puts a Token on the opponent’s board to make Urgent live on your 1st turn. Then to add even more consistency, they’ve now received Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Flying Launcher (YGOrg Translation), a R10NK Xyz Monster that gives you an additional Machine Normal and that tutors any EARTH Machine or Barrage Blast on summon! The final new boss now available to the deck is Superdreadnought Rail Cannon Gustav Rocket (YGOrg Translation), a R10NK that gives the deck a Quick Effect monster negate, giving you even more firepower and burn at your fingertips. Combine spaceships and big trains, with the help of legacy Machine support coming soon to a core set near you!
