In today&#8217;s crossover, it can grab <strong>Artmage Power Patron<\/strong> to enable a Fusion Summon, or it can grab <strong>Power Patron DoomZ <\/strong>to unleash literal equip hell, with a combo chain meant to impress. You see, <strong>Cursed Bamboo Sword<\/strong> is amazing at tutoring more Bamboo Sword Spells, such as <strong>Golden Bamboo Sword<\/strong> or my personal favorite, <strong>Burning Bamboo Sword<\/strong>. That&#8217;s because once you have Burning out, the next Bamboo Sword you activate will cause your opponent&#8217;s next Main Phase 1 to be skipped! Combine that with <strong>Terminal World<\/strong>, and you could skip your opponent&#8217;s entire chances to play cards in the duel&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Enough about that degenerate combo, because this deck also does fairly well without it. The DoomZ engine enables other absurd locks as well, with <strong>DoomZ Destruction<\/strong> preventing your opponent from adding cards from the Main Deck to their hand, outside of Drawing, or even <strong>DoomZ XII End &#8211; Drastrius<\/strong> which can equip multiple of your opponent&#8217;s monsters as Equip Cards. Turning away from that, on the Artmage side, the Field Spell is all it takes to unleash a fury of Main Deck effect monsters that carry Quick Effects to disrupt the opponent. All of this leads to a very potent hybrid strategy, able to take the opponent by surprise then crush their hopes and dreams. Unleash <strong>Medius the Pure&#8217;<\/strong>s power with this fun Terminal Deck!<\/p>\n<h4>Provided Decklist:<\/h4>\n<blockquote><p>Monsters:<br \/>\n1 DoomZ XII Zero &#8211; Drastea<br \/>\n1 Artmage Finmel<br \/>\n2 Artmage Graflare<br \/>\n3 Medius the Pure<br \/>\n3 DoomZ V Five &#8211; Amalthe<br \/>\n1 DoomZ VII Seven &#8211; Elara<br \/>\n1 Artmage Litera<br \/>\n1 Artmage Power Patron<br \/>\n1 Power Patron DoomZ<\/p>\n<p>Spells:<br \/>\n1 Armored Xyz<br \/>\n3 Artmage Varnish -Alteration-<br \/>\n3 Golden Bamboo Sword<br \/>\n1 Artmage Masterwork -Succession-<br \/>\n1 Fleeting Flower of the Magician<br \/>\n1 Artmage Vandalism -Assault-<br \/>\n2 DoomZ Raiders<br \/>\n3 Terminal World<br \/>\n1 Burning Bamboo Sword<br \/>\n3 Original Bamboo Sword<br \/>\n1 Angelica&#8217;s Angelic Ring<br \/>\n3 Cursed Bamboo Sword<br \/>\n1 Reincarnation Unveiling Mail<br \/>\n1 DoomZ Command &#8220;D.O.O.M.D.U.R.G.&#8221;<br \/>\n3 Artmage Academic Arcane Arts Acropolis<\/p>\n<p>Traps:<br \/>\n1 Artmage Pact -Awakening-<br \/>\n1 DoomZ Destruction<\/p>\n<p>Extra Deck:<br \/>\n1 Nerva the Power Patron of Creation<br \/>\n1 Guardian Chimera<br \/>\n1 Artmage Diactorus<br \/>\n1 Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS &#8211; Sky Thunder<br \/>\n1 Super Starslayer TY-PHON &#8211; Sky Crisis<br \/>\n1 Jupiter the Power Patron of Destruction<br \/>\n1 DoomZ XII End &#8211; Drastrius<br \/>\n1 Full Armored Dark Knight Lancer<br \/>\n1 Xyz Armor Fortress<br \/>\n2 DoomZ Break &#8211; Diactorus<br \/>\n1 Gagagaga Magician<br \/>\n1 Number F0: Utopic Future Zexal<br \/>\n1 Underworld Goddess of the Closed World<br \/>\n1 S:P Little Knight<\/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.
