Strategic Summary:

Today’s CDP features a hybrid of two archetypes with polar opposite gameplans. With the help of Buster Dragon, the Buster Blader theme aims to turn all your opponents’ monsters into Dragons, stopping them in their tracks before OTK’ing over their defense position monsters. On the other hand, the Tenpai Dragon archetype aims to OTK at all costs, blowing through any established board to attack directly until they have no LP left. Now isn’t it funny that the two can work together?

That’s exactly what today’s profile brings. The Buster Blader archetype easily accesses its optimal board off the activation of one Trap Card: Prologue of the Destruction Swordsman; therefore, running three copies of it, Trap Trick, and Buster Whelp of the Destruction Swordsman offers enough consistency to make that a reality every duel. While Tenpai Dragons are known to be a very good OTK deck, they aren’t known as well for their going first boards, so the Buster Blader side really shores up that weakness. Now on the other side of the deck, we have the OTK machine in the Tenpai Dragons. Supported by Sangen support cards, Tenpai Dragon Paidra, Tenpai Dragon Chundra, and Tenpai Dragon Fadra each can blitz an opponent down by Synchro Summoning during the Battle Phase itself. There’s no stopping them outside of it, due to their Field Spell, Sangen Summoning, which protects FIRE Dragons from activated effects during your Main Phase 1. They also received two more support cards in INFO: Tenpai Dragon of Genroku (YGOrg Translation), which can be tributed to Special Summon any other Tenpai Dragon, and Sangen Kaihou (YGOrg Translation), a Trap card that can end your opponent’s Main Phase immediately, no questions asked! If you doubt their OTK-capabilities, I really wouldn’t: just look at the replay where they OTK the opponent, despite halving all damage taken with the effect of Pot of Prosperity! Join the Destruction Swordsman as he fights alongside Dragons to slay… evil-er Dragons!?
