Strategic Summary:
Today’s Creative Deck Profile features an Xyz archetype that will be receiving GREAT legacy support in the next core set! The Generaider Boss archetype features Level 9 Boss monsters that aim to significantly control the pace and outcome of the duel through various effects. For example, Harr, Generaider Boss of Storms, can tribute 2 other Spellcaster or Generaider monsters to negate the activation of a card or effect, while Nidhogg, Generaider Boss of Ice can tribute a Wyrm or Generaider monster to negate an attempted Special Summon. Since they are Level 9, the Generaider Bosses would be difficult to get on board, so that’s where the theme turns to Loptr, Shadow of the Generaider Bosses and Generaider Boss Stage to get them out of the deck! Loptr can tribute a Generaider during either Main Phase to Special Summon another from the deck, and Boss Stage is a Field Spell that summons one from the deck when a card is added from the opponent’s deck to their hand, including their standard draw! Note that this effect is only a soft once-per-turn, so the true magic happens when you get multiple Boss Stage resolutions in a turn for multiple monsters! Oh, and to power all of these effects, Boss Stage carries an effect to Special Summon as many Generaider Tokens as possible whenever you Special Summon a Generaider monster during the opponent’s turn!
All of this core gameplay has existed since the theme’s release, but the theme is about to get a major power-up in the next core set. Vara, Seidhr of the Generaider Bosses (YGOrg Translation) is a new Level 9 Generaider that can Special Summon itself from the hand or GY by sending another Generaider card, then when Special Summoned, Vara Special Summons any other Generaider monster from your GY. Both of these effects are insane – the first is great for getting dead Bosses out of your hand, and the second is an upgraded version of Hela, Generaider Boss of Doom’s effect. This also sets up extremely well for Xyz Summons, since it gives you the second Level 9 monster for an Xyz Summon… Speaking of that, the theme also will get a new Rank 9 Boss monster in the form of Laevateinn, Generaider Boss of Shadows (YGOrg Translation). This Rank 9 carries a Quick Effect to tribute itself and summon a non-FIRE Fairy Generaider Xyz, then attach materials from either player’s field or GY as Xyz Material equal to the amount originally on Laevateinn. In other words, you can rip 2 of their backrow, 2 of their boss monsters, heck even two cards from their GY with GY effects (as seen in the Dinorphia replay), all while summoning your Jormungandr, Generaider Boss of Eternity for even more triggers of Boss Stage.
While the optimal way to play this theme still includes the World Legacy support, due to the existence of World Legacy Monstrosity, the new in-archetype support for the theme gives it a new lease on life and another chance to terrorize unexpecting opponents. After all, who doesn’t want to play the evil boss from the video games of your childhood?
