The Phantom Knights are DARK\/Warrior monsters, unlocking Rank 4 Xyz summons primarily through the destruction effect of <strong>The Phantom Knights of Break Sword<\/strong>. On the other hand, the Raidraptor theme primarily consists of Level 4 DARK\/Winged Beasts, able to field their own Rank 4 monsters before ranking up higher with Rank-Up-Magics. At the end of the day, both engines find easy ways to get Xyz material onto the field, then later, both themes unlock even stronger monsters such as <strong>Cyber Dragon Infinity<\/strong>. The best part about this combo deck is that it also provides additional disruptions during its combos, disruptions that are not monster-effect based. This protects your field from being overwhelmed by a single <strong>Dark Ruler No More <\/strong>or <strong>Forbidden Chalice, <\/strong>giving you a chance in this board-breaking modern game. Lastly, today&#8217;s build features a small pendulum engine that helps to smooth hands that would otherwise be difficult to play, as just drawing a <strong>Supreme King Dragon Darkwurm<\/strong> can be enough to field as many DARK monsters as you need for a combo. Embrace your inner Darkness and overlay with this joint Xyz strategy!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Provided Decklist:<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Monsters: 26<br \/>\n| Supreme King Gate Zero<br \/>\n||| Supreme King Dragon Darkwurm<br \/>\n||| Raidraptor &#8211; Strangle Lanius<br \/>\n| Raidraptor &#8211; Mimicry Lanius<br \/>\n||| Abyss Actor &#8211; Curtain Raiser<br \/>\n| Raidraptor &#8211; Singing Lanius<br \/>\n|| Raiders&#8217; Wing<br \/>\n||| The Phantom Knights of Ragged Gloves<br \/>\n||| The Phantom Knights of Ancient Cloak<br \/>\n||| The Phantom Knights of Torn Scales<br \/>\n||| The Phantom Knights of Silent Boots<\/p>\n<p>Spells: 8<br \/>\n| Rank-Up-Magic Soul Shave Force<br \/>\n| Reinforcement of the Army<br \/>\n| Rank-Up-Magic Raid Force<br \/>\n| Foolish Burial<br \/>\n| The Phantom Knights&#8217; Rank-Up-Magic Launch<br \/>\n|| Forbidden Chalice<br \/>\n| Rank-Up-Magic Phantom Knights&#8217; Force<\/p>\n<p>Traps: 6<br \/>\n| Phantom Knights&#8217; Wing<br \/>\n| The Phantom Knights of Shade Brigandine<br \/>\n|| Phantom Knights&#8217; Fog Blade<br \/>\n| Phantom Knights&#8217; Sword<br \/>\n| Raidraptor&#8217;s Phantom Knights Claw<\/p>\n<p>Extra:<br \/>\n| Cyber Dragon Infinity<br \/>\n| Raidraptor &#8211; Revolution Falcon &#8211; Air Raid<br \/>\n| Arc Rebellion Xyz Dragon<br \/>\n| Raidraptor &#8211; Stranger Falcon<br \/>\n| Gagagaga Magician<br \/>\n| Raiders&#8217; Knight<br \/>\n| Evilswarm Nightmare<br \/>\n|| Raidraptor &#8211; Force Strix<br \/>\n| The Phantom Knights of Break Sword<br \/>\n| Leviair the Sea Dragon<br \/>\n| Infinitrack Fortress Megaclops<br \/>\n| Simorgh, Bird of Sovereignty<br \/>\n| The Phantom Knights of Rusty Bardiche<br \/>\n| Raidraptor &#8211; Wise Strix<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<hr \/>\n<div id=\"content\" class=\"clearfix\">\n<article id=\"post-62968\" class=\"post-62968 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-archetype-discussion category-articles category-casual-decklist category-deckbuild category-decklists category-looking-ahead category-strategy category-video\">\n<div class=\"article-content clearfix\">\n<div class=\"entry-content clearfix\">\n<p><em><strong>Note:<\/strong>\u00a0<\/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 with your ideas to keep under consideration!<\/strong>\u00a0On most YGO-related communities my username is Quincymccoy,\u00a0so feel free to reach out.<\/p>\n<p>As of now, I have 4 outstanding requests that I am considering: Melodious, Metalfoes, Traptrix, &amp; Virtual World.
