Strategic Summary:

Today’s CDP has been on my list to get around to for a while, so I’m excited to bring back the Super Quant archetype to my channel. The Super Quant theme features a group of Main Deck ‘Layers’ and their trusty Extra Deck Xyz Monster ‘Mechs’, each Layer sharing an Attribute with its associated Mech. For example, the Level 5 Super Quantum Red Layer is associated with the Rank 5 Super Quantal Mech Beast Magnaliger. Each Layer carries an on-summon effect and an effect when sent to the GY, giving you an assortment of potential. For example here, the Level 3 Super Quantum Blue Layer tutors any Super Quant card on summon, plus when sent to the GY, it can shuffle back up to 3 Super Quant cards back into the deck. As a Level 3 Psychic monster, Blue Layer is most frequently associated with Emergency Teleport, but someone suggested looking into using him with Overdrive Teleporter and I immediately had to use that too!

Now it may seem strange to have an Xyz-based theme of monsters of different Levels, since you typically need 2 monsters with the same Level to Xyz Summon. To get around this, the theme offers Super Quantal Mech Ship Magnacarrier, a Field Spell that can discard a card to faux-Xyz Summon a Layer into its corresponding Mech. Personally, this have never been consistent enough for me, which is why I love that Teleporter sets up your R3NK Summon in the traditional way. This is also a great segue into the next archetype, the Ritual Beast monsters. Led by Spiritual Beast Tamer Lara, as an engine, this theme aims to give you benefits for banishing. When Lara is banished, she can Special Summon any other Ritual Beast monster from the deck. You can also banish 2 Ritual Beast monsters in your GY to Special Summon Ritual Beast Ulti-Nochiudrago, a Level 7 monster that pairs extremely nicely with Super Quantum White Layer to make your R7NK Xyz Summon! If you don’t want to waste the summon on him, you can also choose to banish things with your Nemeses engine: with so many different Types or Attributes in play, Archnemeses Eschatos or Archnemeses Protos are just a heartbeat away! Power up your game, with the Super Quants!
