Overview


Picture
Harpie decks seek to summon Harpie Lady cards, swarming the field and creating large damage swings. Harpies' Hunting Ground makes the harpies bigger, and clears the enemy back row so that attacks are more likely to succeed. Birdface is a staple monster for the strategy. Its respectable stats keep it relevant, while its search effect helps find Harpie Lady cards to trigger Hunting Ground. Elegant Egotist is also used to get extra harpies into play, and can even find the beefy Harpie Lady Sisters. Flying Kamikari is yet another search and summon method, able to trigger Hunting Grounds on the opponent's turn. With so many ways to search for and special summon harpies, one-turn-kill attacks are not unheard of with the deck. 

Of the harpies available, Harpie Lady 1 is by far the most played. Her ATK-increasing effect makes her a powerful ally, as it works not just on other harpies, but any Wind monster. Harpie Lady 2 is sometimes called for in the right meta, and Cyber Harpie works well if the pilot simply wants a bit more muscle. Harpie Lady 3, however, is extremely rare, as her ability is not often relevant, and her stats are sub-par. 

Deck List

This version of the deck has maxed out on all harpie search effects, and includes two copies of Harpie Lady Sisters. With these, it puts the pressure on early, and keeps it until a game-ending push. Triangle Ecstasy Spark makes the attack all but certain, preventing battle traps from activating and beefing up the sisters for high damage.

Additional Card Options


Garuda the Wind Spirit finds his way into Harpie decks from time to time, as he is also effected by Hunting Ground's ATK boost, and his special summon effect means it's that much easier to fill the field up with threats. These versions sometimes include Return from the Different Dimension to be even more explosive, often allowing for multiple attempts at a one-shot attack. 

A strange sight at first, Enraged Battle Ox gives most of the deck's monsters piercing, which helps greatly against opposing Scapegoats. 

Because the deck often plays Flying Kamikari, Hand of Nephthys is easily searched for and activated. The big flaming bird even gets bigger under Hunting Ground! 

Dark Coffin (and to a lesser extent Statue of the Wicked) is creative way to get the most out of Hunting Grounds. The destruction effect of the field spell is not optional, so if the opponent does not have any backrow, the Harpie player is forced to destroy one of their own cards. Coffin lessens the blow, forcing a one-for-one trade.
