The Starry Knight archetype consists of Level 4 LIGHT Fairy monsters that aim to support the Level 7 LIGHT Dragon, <strong>Starry Night, Starry Dragon<\/strong>. When summoned from the hand, this Dragon destroys a card on the field, so looping it back and forth from the field becomes key, with effects ranging from <strong>Starry Knight Ciel<\/strong> to <strong>Starry Knight Arrival<\/strong>. In particular, you can also combine it with the theme&#8217;s Normal Trap, <strong>Starry Knight Blast<\/strong>, to return it to the hand while negating an opponent&#8217;s activated card or effect. With all of these LIGHT monsters comes a lot of potential, and that&#8217;s where the Photon\/Galaxy cards come in handy.<\/p>\n<p>The Galaxy\/Photon paired archetypes consist of LIGHT monsters that aim to Xyz Summon R8NK and R4NK monsters, but they offer quite a bit of utility for all LIGHT decks. Their newest member, <strong>Galaxy War Drake<\/strong><em> (YGOrg Translation)<\/em>, can Special Summon itself from the hand or GY when another Level 4 LIGHT monster is Special Summoned, pairing extremely well with cards like <strong>Starry Knight Orbitael<\/strong>. Beyond War Drake, <strong>Galaxy Summoner<\/strong> gives you access to more Xyz Summoning fun, ranging from <strong>Galaxy Photon Dragon<\/strong> to <strong>Starring Knight<\/strong>. Finally, <strong>Photon Emperor<\/strong> and <strong>Photon Jumper<\/strong> are great options to send to the GY with <strong>Galaxy Hundred<\/strong>, giving you the potential for an additional Normal Summon or a <strong>Galaxy Cyclone<\/strong> when you need to remove a threat in a pinch! The final fun engine at play today consists of <strong>Chamber Dragonmaid<\/strong> and <strong>Dragonmaid Tidying<\/strong>, as Tidying serves as a great way to both bounce a Starry Dragon to the hand while bouncing an opponent&#8217;s threat. With its GY effect, you can be sure to cycle through all 3 copies after you start with just a single Chamber! Break out the Christmas cheer early, with the Starry Knight theme.<\/p>\n<h4>Provided Decklist:<\/h4>\n<blockquote><p>Monsters: 20<br \/>\n| Photon Emperor<br \/>\n||| Starry Night, Starry Dragon<br \/>\n|| Galaxy Soldier<br \/>\n||| Starry Knight Rayel<br \/>\n|| Starry Knight Ciel<br \/>\n| Galaxy Summoner<br \/>\n|| Galaxy War Drake<br \/>\n| Starry Knight Flamel<br \/>\n| Starry Knight Astel<br \/>\n| Chamber Dragonmaid<br \/>\n|| Starry Knight Orbitael<br \/>\n| Photon Jumper<\/p>\n<p>Spells: 11<br \/>\n| Galaxy Cyclone<br \/>\n||| Starry Knight Balefire<br \/>\n||| Galaxy Hundred<br \/>\n|| Starry Knight Ceremony<br \/>\n|| Starry Knight Sky<\/p>\n<p>Traps: 9<br \/>\n||| Dragonmaid Tidying<br \/>\n||| Starry Knight Blast<br \/>\n| Starry Knight Arrival<br \/>\n| Silhouhatte Trick<br \/>\n| Angel Statue &#8211; Azurune<\/p>\n<p>Extra Deck:<br \/>\n| Number 38: Hope Harbinger Dragon Titanic Galaxy<br \/>\n| Number 90: Galaxy-Eyes Photon Lord<br \/>\n| Galaxy Photon Dragon<br \/>\n| Starring Knight<br \/>\n| Evilswarm Exciton Knight<br \/>\n| Wonky Quartet<br \/>\n| Borrelend Dragon<br \/>\n| Underworld Goddess of the Closed World<br \/>\n| Accesscode Talker<br \/>\n| Knightmare Unicorn<br \/>\n| Galaxy-Eyes Solflare Dragon<br \/>\n| Lyna the Light Charmer, Lustrous<br \/>\n| S:P Little Knight<br \/>\n| Silhouhatte Rabbit<br \/>\n| I:P Masquerena<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em><strong>Note:\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>This is continuing the style of Creative Deck Profile articles, designed to showcase a build through replays and an attached summary. <strong>If you wish to see a CDP for an archetype, theme, or strategy you love, feel free to private message me on the YGOrg Discord server, the comments section of any of my YouTube videos, or just post a comment in response to this article on our Facebook page or through the site with your ideas for me to keep under consideration!<\/strong> On most YGO-related communities my username is Quincymccoy, so feel free to reach out.
