Knightmare Phoenix and Knightmare Unicorn (Knightmare cards)
Knightmare Phoenix
ATK:
1900
LINK-2
Link Arrow:
Top
Right
2 monsters with different names If this card is Link Summoned: You can discard 1 card, then target 1 Spell/Trap your opponent controls; destroy it, then, if this card was co-linked when this effect was activated, you can draw 1 card. You can only use this effect of "Knightmare Phoenix" once per turn. Co-linked monsters you control cannot be destroyed by battle.
Knightmare Unicorn
ATK:
2200
LINK-3
Link Arrow:
Left
Bottom
Right
2+ monsters with different names If this card is Link Summoned: You can discard 1 card, then target 1 card on the field; shuffle it into the Deck, then, if this card was co-linked when this effect was activated, you can draw 1 card. You can only use this effect of "Knightmare Unicorn" once per turn. While any co-linked "Knightmare" monsters are on the field, for your normal draw in your Draw Phase, draw 1 card for each different card name among those co-linked "Knightmare" monsters, instead of drawing just 1 card.
This is a fairly versatile mercenary that is often found in every deck. If co-linked, they will develop their full potential such as: Draw 1, destroy 1 spell/trap, return 1 card on the field to the deck,...
Diamond Dire Wolf (x1)
Use Dire Wolf's effect to destroy itself or Hootcake to exchange for 1 backrow card from your opponent before you do something so you can feel more secure when dancing.
Weakness
- Just one Necrovalley card can shut down your entire strategy. Prevents your Madolches from recycling themselves and prevents you from using Hootcake's effects.
- This deck lacks any form of protection. For this reason, it relies on common backrows to prevent your opponents from using their techs or disruptors.
- A lot of your recycling potential comes from your Field Spell. But if the Chateau is discolored, you will lose the incentive to recycle quickly and also the power to turn your monsters into good Beaters.
Some other useful cards (playing Synchro)
Madolche Mewfeuille (x0-x1)
Madolche Mewfeuille
ATK:
500
DEF:
300
When this card you control is destroyed by your opponent's card (either by battle or by card effect) and sent to your Graveyard: Shuffle this card into your Deck. When this card is Normal Summoned: You can Special Summon 1 "Madolche" monster from your hand.
Psychic Wheeleder (x3)
Psychic Wheeleder
ATK:
600
DEF:
0
If you control a Level 3 monster other than "Psychic Wheeleder", you can Special Summon this card (from your hand) in Defense Position. You can only Special Summon "Psychic Wheeleder" once per turn this way. If this card is sent to the GY as Synchro Material: You can target 1 monster on the field with less ATK than the Synchro Monster that used this card as material; destroy it. You can only use this effect of "Psychic Wheeleder" once per turn.
- Normal Summon Hootcake and banish Dark Verger to Special Summon Messengelato. Messengelato searches for Chateau.
- Special Summon Wheeleder and perform level 7 Synchro. Usually Ancient Pixie Dragon for control or Samurai Destroyer for attack.
- Activating Cheatau allows you to draw a card with Ancient Pixie Dragon and return Messengelato to the deck. You can also destroy your opponent's monsters with Ancient Pixie Dragon.
- On your next turn, you can use Hootcake's effect to banish Wheeleder in your graveyard and Special Summon Puddingcess. Now, when your graveyard is clear of monsters, Puddingcess will gain increased ATK.
Ancient Pixie Dragon (x1)
Ancient Pixie Dragon
ATK:
2100
DEF:
3000
1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner monsters After resolving a Field Spell Card that was activated during your turn: Draw 1 card. You can only use this effect of "Ancient Pixie Dragon" once per turn. Once per turn: You can target 1 face-up Attack Position monster on the field; destroy that target. There must be a face-up Field Spell Card on the field to activate and to resolve this effect.
Ancient Pixie Dragon works well in most decks that rely on Field Spells. Activating the Field Spell allows you to draw a card, recovering the resources used to summon the Ancient Pixie Dragon. And since decks like Madolche want their Field Spells to appear as soon as possible, you can immediately use Ancient Pixie Dragon's free destroy effect.
Brionac Dragon of the Ice Barrier (x1)
Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier
ATK:
2300
DEF:
1400
1 Tuner + 1+ non-Tuner monsters You can discard any number of cards to the GY, then target the same number of cards your opponent controls; return those cards to the hand. You can only use this effect of "Brionac, Dragon of the Ice Barrier" once per turn.
When Chateau is active, the Madolche deck will practically always be full of monsters. You can take advantage of this large amount of resources by discarding them as Brionac's cost and clearing your opponent's field. This makes Brionac the best Synchro card to summon when you're ready to OTK your opponent.
Samurai Destroyer (x1)
Samurai Destroyer
ATK:
2600
DEF:
1400
1 Tuner + 1+ non-Tuner monsters If this card battles an opponent's monster, your opponent cannot activate cards or effects until the end of the Damage Step, also that opponent's monster has its effects negated during the Battle Phase only. If this face-up card in its owner's control leaves the field because of an opponent's card effect: You can target 1 Machine monster in your GY; Special Summon it.
This is a good beater with a very safe effect when it attacks, in addition to having an effect after leaving the field and returning that is also very stable for defending in bad situations.
HTS Psyhemuth (x1)
This card has a great removal effect that Brionac and zeta don't have, and can be used against cards that are immune to Target. However, the price to exchange is quite expensive when you have to spend 1 extra slot and 2 monsters :((
PSY-Framelord Zeta (x1)
PSY-Framelord Zeta
ATK:
2500
DEF:
1800
1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner monsters Once per turn, during either player's turn: You can target 1 Special Summoned monster your opponent controls in face-up Attack Position; banish both that monster and this card from the field, but return them in your next Standby Phase. If this card is in your Graveyard: You can target 1 other "PSY-Frame" card in your Graveyard; return this card to the Extra Deck, and if you do, add that target to your hand.
Zeta is the best way to get rid of your opponent's boss monster until you have some way to deal with it. Banish Zeta and your opponent's boss monsters until your next turn, and you can continue doing this whenever they return. Then, when you have another removal effect ready, use it to eliminate that boss. Remember to leave an empty monster area for Zeta to return.
Naturia Barkion (x1)
Naturia Barkion
ATK:
2500
DEF:
1800
1 EARTH Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner EARTH monsters During either player's turn, when a Trap Card is activated: You can banish 2 cards from your Graveyard; negate the activation, and if you do, destroy it. This card must be face-up on the field to activate and to resolve this effect.
Barkion helps address this deck's lack of protection by negating disruptive Trap cards. The cost of Barkion's effect also keeps your graveyard free of monsters, maintaining Puddingcess's ATK increase.
