Instructions for building and playing Buster Blader (ver 2023)

I know there have been articles about Buster Blader and there are a lot of them on YGO Vietnam, but in terms of improvements to this archetype in Duel Links, it has had its strong core this time around. Therefore, this article was released to help newbies or those who have been playing for a long time and are now playing again, to keep up with the progress of the game's archetype.




overview

Buster Blader deck ver 2023 focuses on trying to get Buster Blader, the Dragon Destroyer Swordsman to rely on Buster Dragon 's DNA Surgery -like effect to lock your opponent out of effects and monster attacks. Some other important cards include Buster Whelp of the Destruction Swordsman to search for Destruction Swordsman Fusion or Destruction Sword Memories to make things difficult for your opponent.

Thus, it can be seen that we will not have to struggle to choose slots for the Main Deck like before, but the version of the deck has now been expanded with many options for Extra Decks as well as slots for new Techs. Helps you defeat your opponent immediately.

However, it sounds strong, but in essence it is just a floodgate deck and does not necessarily emerge as a meta deck. So you will need to consider if you want to build a set!

    The basic trio of every Buster Blader deck
    • Destruction Swordmaster is used as a fusion material and is an extremely good alternative to Buster Blader. Opp's ability to prevent monsters from regenerating under GY and also help clear the field will greatly help the Deck.
    • Whelp to search for Fusion in your hand and is also the only Tuner to bring Buster Dragon onto the field. In addition, the ability to regenerate Buster Blader is quite good for you to diversify your playing style in many cases.
    • Fusion is used to... um Fusion :v but this is a quick-play, meaning you can attack, put Destroyer Swordsman on the field during opp's turn to surprise them. And it can be recycled continuously, but the problem will appear if you are facing a GY embargo deck, such as Necrovalley or DD Crow .

      New item for Buster Blader in Duel Links, is an alternative summoning method for Fusion, but what is worth mentioning is that searching for a card quickly puts a Buster Blader on the field so you don't have a dead hand or fear that the field will have nothing to calm you down. hold.

        Effect Karma helps clear the grave and increase the ATK of your monsters. The previous Ver didn't really need it, but with the current meta, it's best to have 1 card in your Deck just in case.

        In addition, it also helps you restock if Ace is taken off the field by a certain backrow and helps that Ace be equipped with 1 Destruction Sword from the grave. This effect synergizes quite well with Swordsmaster and Buster Dragon itself.
        • You will want to equip Whelp on Swordsmaster while Buster Dragon is on the field and help bombard opp's field as a joke.

          There's not much to say about this Tech, but it's very popular if you want to avoid backrows from opp to survive or clear the field for an easier finish.

            Trap type BoM, good, but will be slower, however the benefit it brings will be a level 2 body so you can measure for Synchros or simply help keep the field easier.

                            In Duel Links, it's best for you to have a few Traps like the above for your terrible backrow. And of course, Buster Blader has evolved to the point where you won't be too worried about card slots like I said, so feel free to take these cards and put them in your Deck!

                                Yes, Blue-Eyes players can also apply this method to Buster Blader, but the rate of using this combo is very low, you will want to consider it!

When this card in your possession is destroyed by your opponent's card and sent to your GY: Target 1 non-Synchro "Scrap" monster in your GY; Special Summon that target.


                                  Synchro will be good Extra Deck options for you to consider, and the most popular level for this deck is level 8.

                                  1 Tuner + 1+ non-Tuner monsters Once per turn: You can banish 1 Tuner from your hand, GY, or face-up field, then target 1 card on the field; destroy it. If this Synchro Summoned card is destroyed by card effect and sent to the GY: You can target 1 of your banished Tuners; add it to your hand.


                                  Vermillion is so popular with Blue-Eyes players, but owning one card will still help your Extra Deck have a few more bombardment barrels.

                                  2+ Effect Monsters Gains 500 ATK for each monster it points to. When your opponent activates a card or effect that targets a card(s) you control (Quick Effect): You can Tribute 1 monster this card points to; negate the activation, and if you do, destroy that card.


                                  You will need 1 Link with Dame to be a good Beater, but with Decode you can also negate an effect for only the cost of 1 monster.

                                                              Conclusion & Solution

                                                              Thank you for following this article. I hope I can contribute to help you build a strong deck of cards for yourself.

                                                              However, strong is indeed strong and improvement is indeed improvement but Buster Blader is still not completely improved. Buster Dragon is included in the game, but to put it on the field at the same time as your Ace, it must be admitted that it will take time. So, what to do to shorten the time? There is a card in the archetype that can temporarily solve this problem!

                                                              Prologue of the Destruction Swordsman (Solution)

                                                              Prologue of the Destruction Swordsman
                                                               Rarity
                                                              Prologue of the Destruction Swordsman
                                                              Prologue of the Destruction Swordsman
                                                              Trap Normal
                                                              Prologue of the Destruction Swordsman

                                                                Send 1 "Destruction Sword" card and 1 "Buster Blader" monster from your Deck to the Graveyard, except "Prologue of the Destruction Swordsman"; Special Summon 1 "Buster Dragon" from your Extra Deck or Graveyard, but destroy it during the End Phase of the next turn. You can banish this card from your Graveyard; this turn, "Destruction Sword" cards you control cannot be destroyed by battle or card effects. You can only activate 1 "Prologue of the Destruction Swordsman" per turn.


                                                                Prologue is a good solution to put Buster Dragon on the field and help you completely control the opp field. This is also a protection to better protect monsters, helping you not worry too much about your ace being affected by backrow effects.
