Lastly, <strong>Loki, Lord of the Aesir<\/strong> defends against S\/T activations during the battle phase, and is Synchro Summoned using a Nordic Alfar tuner. Together, the three sub-archetypes of the Nordic monsters offer various effects to accelerate Synchro Summons, but there are also two Nordic tuners that can ignore any tuner requirements! <strong>Vanadis of the Nordic Ascendant<\/strong> is the first, a Level 4 that can modulate its level by sending Nordic monsters from the deck to the GY, and <strong>Gullinbursti of the Nordic Beasts<\/strong> <em>(YGOrg Translation)<\/em>, a new Level 3 tuner that summons another Nordic from hand when summoned and recovers a Nordic monster from your GY. But Gullinbursti is just the beginning of the new legacy support.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, the Nordic Relic cards have been quite useless. So seeing the new <strong>Ivaldi of the Nordic Smiths<\/strong> <em>(YGOrg Translation)<\/em> may have been initially disappointing &#8211; until you saw their two new powerful Relics. <strong>Nordic Relic Hlidskjalf<\/strong> <em>(YGOrg Translation) <\/em>is a Spell that tutors a Nordic directly from your deck to the field, plus it tutors a Nordic to hand by banishing itself from your GY. Next, <strong>Nordic Relic Svalinn<\/strong> <em>(YGOrg Translation)<\/em> can negate the effects of all face-up cards your opponent controls while you control an Aesir monster. Combined, this makes the Aesir monsters a potent threat to any opponent, especially when you factor in the ability to cheat out your bosses with <strong>Gullveig of the Nordic Ascendant<\/strong> and <strong>Alviss of the Nordic Alfar<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, to wrap up my build today I decided to run a full <strong>Crossout Designator<\/strong> engine, celebrating its recent release to the TCG. This engine doesn&#8217;t make the cut in my next video, a new form of content debuting as my post for Monday. This new video will discuss a variety of engines, their benefits and applications, and the deckbuilding costs of each to keep in mind. In today&#8217;s build, you&#8217;ll notice a ton of banishing targets for Crossout that can prevent your opponent&#8217;s disruption from ruining your plays, especially since Gullveig&#8217;s effect requires such a heavy investment. Perfect for a deck that summons the Gods themselves! Let the Nordic lights shine bright, with the Aesir!<\/p>\n<h4>Provided Decklist:<\/h4>\n<blockquote><p>Monsters: 22<br \/>\n| Nibiru, the Primal Being<br \/>\n||| Alviss of the Nordic Alfar<br \/>\n||| <a href=\"https:\/\/yugipedia.com\/wiki\/Ivaldi_of_the_Nordic_Smiths\">Ivaldi of the Nordic Smiths<\/a><br \/>\n||| Vandalis of the Nordic Ascendant<br \/>\n| Tanngrisnir of the Nordic Beasts<br \/>\n|| <a href=\"https:\/\/yugipedia.com\/wiki\/Gullinbursti_of_the_Nordic_Beasts\">Gullinbursti of the Nordic Beasts<\/a><br \/>\n| Ash Blossom &amp; Joyous Spring<br \/>\n| Ghost Ogre &amp; Snow Rabbit<br \/>\n| Ghost Belle &amp; Haunted Mansion<br \/>\n| Mimir of the Nordic Ascendant<br \/>\n| Valkyrie of the Nordic Ascendant<br \/>\n||| Dverg of the Nordic Alfar<br \/>\n| Effect Veiler<\/p>\n<p>Spells: 11<br \/>\n||| <a href=\"https:\/\/yugipedia.com\/wiki\/Nordic_Relic_Hlidskjalf\">Nordic Relic Hlidskjalf<\/a><br \/>\n| Reinforcement of the Army<br \/>\n| Pot of Desires<br \/>\n| Upstart Goblin<br \/>\n| Monster Reborn<br \/>\n| Called by the Grave<br \/>\n||| Crossout Designator<\/p>\n<p>Traps: 7<br \/>\n|| Red Reign<br \/>\n| Infinite Impermanence<br \/>\n| Nordic Relic Gungnir<br \/>\n| Nordic Relic Meginjord<br \/>\n|| <a href=\"https:\/\/yugipedia.com\/wiki\/Nordic_Relic_Svalinn\">Nordic Relic Svalinn<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Extra:<br \/>\n|| Odin, Father of the Aesir<br \/>\n|| Thor, Lord of the Aesir<br \/>\n| Loki, Lord of the Aesir<br \/>\n| Swordsoul Supreme Sovereign &#8211; Chengying<br \/>\n| Baronne de Fleur<br \/>\n| Scarlight Red Dragon Archfiend<br \/>\n| PSY-Framelord Omega<br \/>\n| Cyberse Quantum Dragon<br \/>\n| F.A.
