Today’s build combines the Live\u2606Twin theme and their Evil\u2605Twin counterparts with a few other archetypes designed to control the duel, gain advantage over time, and eventually out-resource just about any deck it comes into contact with. Oh, and did I mention it just got two powerful new support cards in ALIN, such as a new LINK-1? I’ll start there with the new <strong>Evil\u2605Twin Ki-sikil Deal<\/strong><em> (YGOrg Translation)<\/em>, which lets you send a Lil-la monster from the Deck or Extra Deck to the GY to let you draw a card each time your opponent activates a card or effect in response to your Ki-sikil or Lil-la effect the rest of the turn. Typically, this is used to get the other new card, <strong>Live\u2606Twin Lil-la Sweet<\/strong><em> (YGOrg Translation)<\/em> to the GY, a new Level 2 Main Deck monster that can Special Summon itself from the GY while you control a Ki-sikil monster. From there, all bets are off, as you have your two monsters for Evil\u2605Twin combos. The rest of the Live Twin side of the deck is fairly standard, with <strong>Live\u2606Twin Sunny’s Snitch<\/strong> offering punishing LP losses to an opponent that Special Summons repeatedly during a turn.<\/p>\n<p>Let’s move onto the Runick side now, and this is where the disruption comes in. With <strong>Runick Fountain<\/strong> on the board, your hand becomes another set of S\/T zones, with Runick Quick-Play Spells waiting in the wings to ruin the opponent’s day. They also happen to banish card(s) from the top of their deck, and if you hit an essential engine requirement, well that’s just too bad for them, now isn’t it? Every Runick Spell also doubles as access to Fountain via <strong>Hugin the Runick Wings<\/strong>, a Level 2 Fusion that tutors it on summon, giving you a body and the ability to draw up to 3 cards once per turn, after a Runick Quick-Play Spell resolves. With all of these Level 2 monsters between the Live Twins and Hugin, it just seems natural to throw in the Spright theme as well. These Thunder monsters explode onto the board, with <strong>Spright Carrot<\/strong> and <strong>Spright Red<\/strong> offering negation and <strong>Spright Blue<\/strong> and <strong>Spright Jet<\/strong> letting you tutor even more combo power. Either way, all of these monsters can turn into bigger and bigger links, from locking the opponent with <strong>Knightmare Gryphon<\/strong> to leveraging <strong>Evil\u2605Twin’s Trouble Sunny<\/strong> to special summon both Evil\u2605Twins back from your GY at once! This deck turns any grind game into a GRIND, so hope you enjoy my take on the concept!<\/p>\n<h4>Provided Decklist:<\/h4>\n<blockquote><p>Monsters: 15<br \/>\n| Evil\u2605Twins Ki-sikil & Lil-la<br \/>\n|| Spright Jet<br \/>\n| Spright Red<br \/>\n||| Spright Blue<br \/>\n| Spright Carrot<br \/>\n|| Live\u2606Twin Ki-sikil<br \/>\n| Live\u2606Twin Ki-sikil Frost<br \/>\n||| Live\u2606Twin Lil-la<br \/>\n| Live\u2606Twin Lil-la Sweet<\/p>\n<p>Spells: 23<br \/>\n| Secret Password<br \/>\n| Spright Starter<br \/>\n||| Runick Freezing Curses<br \/>\n||| Runick Tip<br \/>\n||| Runick Slumber<br \/>\n||| Runick Flashing Fire<br \/>\n|| Spright Smashers<br \/>\n|| Runick Destruction<br \/>\n||| Live\u2606Twin Sunny’s Snitch<br \/>\n|| Runick Fountain<\/p>\n<p>Traps: 3<br \/>\n||| Infinite Impermanence<\/p>\n<p>Extra Deck:<br \/>\n|| Hugin the Runick Wings<br \/>\n| Number 29: Mannequin Cat<br \/>\n| Gigantic Spright<br \/>\n| Evil\u2605Twin’s Trouble Sunny<br \/>\n| A Bao A Qu, the Lightless Shadow<br \/>\n| Knightmare Gryphon<br \/>\n| S:P Little Knight<br \/>\n|| Evil\u2605Twin Ki-sikil<br \/>\n|| Evil\u2605Twin Lil-la<br \/>\n| Muckraker From the Underworld<br \/>\n| I:P Masquerena<br \/>\n| Evil\u2605Twin Ki-sikil Deal<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><em><strong>Note: <\/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.
