Goat Format Championship 12 Deck Tech: Fusion Gate Toolbox

5/15/2021

It's been quite a while since I saw a deck as unique as this! Some parts Fusion Gate Turbo, Some parts Rescue Cat, Logos didn't just sprinkle some spice into today's event, he dumped the whole bottle in! With some similarities to YT Andal's Dark Fusion Toolbox deck, I'm not even sure what to call this crazy thing! 

Deck List

Overview

Normally, Fusion Gate Turbo lists are built to hastily summon powerful fusion monsters like Dark Paladin, while also abusing the banish mechanic of Fusion Gate. Activating Return From the Different Dimension or Dimension Fusion after a successful summon makes for an intimidating board state, for sure. 

Though a more recent innovation, Using Rescue Cat in order to find and make use of copies of Mystical Sheep is not unheard of, too. What makes Logo's list unique, though, is the sheer number of options he's created for himself. It's not often that you can combine two aggressive combo decks, and still find a way to give yourself a

respectable toolbox, but that's exactly what Logos has accomplished.  ​

Player Insight

There's a lot to unpack here, and I'm not confident that I could point out every angle or interaction at our disposal with this list. So, let's ask the deck's creator instead, eh?
(As a note, this deck tech was originally completed in Italian. I've included both the original Italian text, as well as my translation. I am not a native Italian speaker, but I did my best!) 

il primo pensiero è stato che un mazzo combo potesse fare molto bene in quanto le capre sono state tolte da molti deck, e non si giocano nei mazzi toptier come warrior e chaos turbo. Un mazzo che potesse farre tanti danni molto veloce credo possa imporsi prima che i mazzi più giocati del formato prendano vantaggio.

il mazzo si basa principalmente sulle fusion monsters cercando di evocare le fusioni più fortie a seconda del matchup, sfruttando la carta fusion gate. Una scelta particolare del mazzo è stata quella di non giocare heavy storm e giant trunade nel main deck, ma di giocare royal decree, credo che decreto sia una carta molto fastidiosa per tutti i mazzi toptier che non dia l'occasione agli avversari di mettere in catena tutte le loro risposte come accadrebbe con tempesta, l'idea è quindi quella di bloccare fin dal principio carte problematiche come solenne e dustshoot, e per fare pulizia sul board abusare di last will abbinato a byser shock.



My first thought was that a combo deck could do very well, as Scapegaot has been removed from many decks, and are not played in top tier decks like Warrior and Chaos Turbo. A deck that could do a lot of damage very fast, I think, can take over before the most played decks in the format can take an advantage.

The deck is mainly based on fusion monsters. It's trying to evoke the strongest fusions for the matchup using the card Fusion Gate. A unique choice was not to play Heavy Storm or Giant Trunade in the main deck, but  royal decree instead. I believe that Decree is a very annoying card for all top tier decks, and does not give opponents the opportunity to chain all their answers, as would happen with Storm. The idea is, therefore, to block problematic cards such as Solemn and Dustshoot from the beginning, and to clean up the board to abuse Last Will combined with Byser Shock.


Wow, that's some crazy innovation! Even with a recent loss against Empty Jar, Logos says he excited to continue to play the deck, and  was happy to be able to test his side board against the established combo. He's even open to bringing new versions of the deck to future events! 

The spice-lover in me couldn't be more excited.

Any chance we can see the extra deck for this list? I'm no expert on these things, but with a Fusion Gate Turbo deck, I think the fusion monsters are important to know lol

In Goat Format the extra deck's size was not restricted. So, it is assumed that players have three of every fusion at their disposal.

What am I missing?
You can only substitude 1 Material, so the only Fusions he can make are
Master of Oz
Labirynth Tank
St. Joan

(Sanwitch
Twin Headed Thunder Dragon)

that's not promissing.. He plays Light and Dark Hex but not Earth which has the best Fusion Monsters to summon.
Monsters in () I saw after writing this commenct.

Could be stronger with a more focused approach.
