overview

Recently, Konami released the Cyber Style Extreme structure deck, adding a few support cards to this deck such as the new boss Cyber Dragon Nova, Cyber Dragon Nachster, Cyber Revsystem.

Using this Skill in matches helps you have a higher chance of Xyz summoning the Cyber Dragon Nova monster.

Cyber Style (Skill Card) (5%)

After being nerfed, along with the launch of the new Skill " Cyber Style Evolution ", this Skill was used less. However, there are still some players who use this Skill along with using Fusion monsters.

Core Cards

To have a complete deck of cards to climb rank, you need the following:

Cyber Dragon (x3)

There is no denying that you should put this card in your deck because this is a necessary fusion material for the boss cards behind. If you take the next turn, Cyber Dragon can take advantage of its ability to special summon when the opponent has a monster. This card has an even better ability to sweep opposing monsters if Evolution Burst is released.

Cyber Emergency and Cyber Dragon Nachster (x2-3)

Previously, going on the first turn was very difficult because there were no monsters on the opponent's field, but since this card was released, Cyber Dragon can appear in almost any situation. You can take advantage of this card to revive the Cyber Dragon in the grave, or you can perform a short combo such as: activate its effect to send a level 5 Cyber Dragon to the grave so you can special summon this. this and revive the Cyber Dragon. After that, you can use skills on Nachster to become level 5 so you can Xyz summon Nova; or if you have Core and Nachster in hand, summon Core and search for Cyber Emergency (from skill).

Use Cyber Emergency to search for Cyber Dragon level 5.

Special Summon Nachster by removing level 5 Cyber Dragon but do not activate Nachster's revive effect.

Use the skill to turn Core and Nachster to level 5 to create Nova.

Activate Nova's effect to special summon Nachster by discarding Nachster as material.

Activate Nachster's revive effect to special summon a level 5 Cyber Dragon to the field.

Its effect can special summon, not only the level 5 Cyber Dragon, but also Nova and Chimeratech Rampage Dragon back to the field. Since Nova can activate its ATK-boosting effect without needing any Xyz materials, Nova is what you'll want to bring back if you can.

Cyber Dragon Vier (x2-3)

Cyber Dragon Vier is very easy to summon when you combine with the above combo, but only take full advantage of the ability when you have Cyberload Fusion or Overload Fusion in your hand, use this monster as a material to fuse Cyber Twin Dragon. , Chimeratech Overdragon or Chimeratech Rampage Dragon or use the skill to level up to 5 and then summon beyond Cyber Dragon Nova from the Extra deck.

Cyber Dragon Core (x2-3)

The most useful use of Cyber Dragon Core is to be able to search and get Cyberload Fusion, Cyber Revsystem, Cyber Repair Plant or Cybernetic Overflow depending on the situation you use. Then summoning key monsters from the Extra deck will be much easier. However, like Vier or Nachster, if you are negated by the opponent in the combo that calls out the boss, you can easily be defeated because their ATK/DEF stats are very low so you have to wait for the next turn.

Cyberload Fusion (x2)

An indispensable card as this card allows you to fuse by swapping "Cyber Dragon" material monsters back into the deck. The usefulness of this card is undeniable as Konami has included this card in the semi-limited list to reduce its dominance. As a skilled Cyber Dragon player, you must know this card is very important and if you don't end it early, the advantage will only favor the opponent because the deck does not have much Cyberload Fusion.

Cybernetic Overflow (x1-2)

Cybernetic Overflow is also an extremely powerful trap card with the ability to destroy without targeting. When the ATK of the monsters in the deck is not enough to defeat them, the last resort is to destroy them, but The condition is that you must remove a number of Cyber Dragon monsters equal to the number of cards you destroy from your opponent. This card can be utilized by discarding Cyber Dragon monsters to activate and then activating Cyberload Fusion to add those same monsters to the deck.

You can find this card and pick it up into your hand thanks to Core's ability, then place it face down to create a layer of defense in case your Cyber Dragon monsters are wiped out by your opponent.

Cyber Revsystem (x1-3)

Allows a Cyber Dragon monster to be special summoned from the hand or grave and makes it invulnerable to damage by the card's abilities. Or alternatively, special summon a Cyber Dragon monster to Xyz Summon Nova.

Cyber Dragon Zwei and Cyber Dragon Drei (Depends on the situation)

A way to turn monsters on the field to level 5 to Xyz Summon a Nova. In any other version of the deck that doesn't use the Cyber Style Evolution skill to become level 5, you can use this to help make level 5.

Extra Deck

Chimeratech Rampage Dragon (1-2)

Allows the destruction of Spell/Trap cards on the field based on the number of fusion materials to create Chimeratech Rampage Dragon, by sending 2 Light-type Machine monsters from the deck to the grave, it will allow 2 extra turns. attack again (easily OTK if the opponent has not yet summoned a high-level monster to deal with it)

Cyber Dragon Nova (x1-2)

The second main card after the structure deck is released, can remove a Cyber Dragon monster on the field to increase 2100 ATK, then you are strong enough to fight the opponent's powerful monsters. Furthermore, if this monster is sent to the grave with your opponent's ability while in your possession, it allows you to summon a Fusion monster from your Extra Deck so you can counterattack next turn.

Chimeratech Overdragon (x1)

Chimeratech Overdragon can sometimes be performed with high enough ATK to OTK with a single attack, but is vulnerable to interference due to its lack of immunity to effects. The only thing you should do is Fusion Summon Chimeratech Overdragon after sweeping your opponent's backboard with Chimeratech Rampage Dragon, Cybernetic Overflow, or other Spell/Trap removal cards.

Cyber Twin Dragon (x1)

Mainly a big beater that can attack twice. Since it can only be fusion summoned using "Cyber Dragon", you need to use level 5 Cyber Dragons or use low level monsters like Core, Vier, Nachster when they are on the field/grave to Their name became "Cyber Dragon".

Remember that changing names from low-level Cyber Dragon related monsters is an effect. This means that if your monsters are negated they will not become "Cyber Dragon".

Tech Cards

Book of Moon and Karma Cut (x2-3)

In addition to high ATK, your deck also needs cards that can harass the opponent like Book of Moon or Karma Cut

Mystical Space Typhoon (x1-3)

Although it has high flexibility and attack power, Cyber Dragon's weakness is its inability to resist, so to be safer, you should add a few Mystical Space Typhoon cards to destroy Spell/Trap cards that have the ability Disturb before performing combos.

Overload Fusion (x1-2)

In case you feel Cyberload Fusion is not enough, you can add this card to your Main Deck

Tiras, Keeper of Genesis, Number 12: Crimson Shadow Armor Ninja, Adreus and Keeper of Armageddon (x1)

Digvorzhak King of Heavy Industry (x1)

Gives the deck more untargeted card destruction, but requires 3 monsters to perform. Since you can only use the ability twice per turn, you will need at least a level 5 Cyber Dragon on the field to Xyz into this.

Its effect is a bit of a gamble, but the high ATK makes it quite okay even if the effect fails. It's worth noting that sending a card from your opponent's deck to the grave can reduce your opponent's save, so you'll want to make sure it's useful when you use it in your deck.

Wind-Up Arsenal Zenmaioh (x1)
