FIENDNARCHS

Basically, it's Synchro Swarm using Skull Knight #2 for +0 tribute summons, Puppet Master to swarm, and Stygian Street Patrol for speed.

THE GANG

 

 

[spoiler=THE ENGINE (Stygian Street Patrol)]

“When this card destroys a monster by battle and sends it to the Graveyard, inflict damage to your opponent equal to that monster's Level x 100. You can remove from play this card from your Graveyard to Special Summon 1 Fiend-Type monster with 2000 or less ATK from your hand.”

 

This guy speeds the deck up a lot. You basically use him to Special Summon Skull Knight #2 and proceed to abuse him with your tribute monsters. You can also Special Summon Sangan for tribute monsters and Fabled Raven for Synchros.

 

[spoiler=THE WEIRD TECH THAT MAKES MOST OF THE DECK WORK (Skull Knight #2)]

 

This is the guy that sparked the whole idea and is what makes some of the tribute monsters in this deck useful. So, you Special Summon this guy and tribute summon a fiend. Then, you search your deck and Special Summon another one. This makes your tribute summons +0, and contributes to some of the other effects a lot.

 

[spoiler=THE TUNER (Fabled Raven)]

He’s a Fiend (which works with Puppet Master), he can change his level, he can dump Stygian Street Patrols in your hand, and he’s a Chaos Sorc target. Great in this deck.[/img]

 

[spoiler=OTHER SMALL GUYS]

Armageddon Knight and Ryko mill Fiends, and Tomato searches for Arma, or Skull Knight if you’re going to tribute summon.

 

 

 

[spoiler=BIG GUY #1 (Puppet Master)]

 

The Synchro engine. Basically, the plain play is just to tribute Skull Knight #2 for Puppet Master, get another one, and Special Summon 2 Fabled Ravens. Of course, you can always Special Summon other monsters, and go for different synchros.

 

[spoiler=BIG GUY #2 (Emissary from Pandemonium)]

 

Tribute Skull Knight #2 for this, get another Knight, easily synchro level 8. And as always, there are other plays available.

 

[spoiler=BIG GUY #3 (Caius)]

He’s a fiend, so he works with Skull Knight. Also, he’s Caius. What’s not to like?

 

[spoiler=OTHER BIG GUYS]

DaD is obvious, Sorc is obvious.

 

 

 

Now, we pretty much have a simple s/t lineup. Pot of Avarice could work well here, BfaDD allows multiple use of Street Patrol.

 

THE SYNCHROS

(or at least, the non-generic ones)

 

[spoiler=Fabled Valkyrus]

 

REALLY easy to get out with Puppet Master. Great draw engine for this deck. You can discard Street Patrols, Ravens for Puppet Master later, etc.

 

[spoiler=Fabled Leviathan]

“1 "Fabled" Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner monster.

When this card on the field is destroyed and sent to the Graveyard, you can select up to 3 "Fabled" monsters in your Graveyard. Add the selected monsters to your hand.”

 

Really, the only reason I run him is because he’s level 10, and if I can only go for level 10, then well there you go. He can also net +’s when he’s destroyed, and works even better in Fabled heavy variants.

 

[spoiler=Fabled Ragin]

“1 Fabled" Tuner Monster + 1 or more non-Tuner Monsters

When this card is Synchro Summoned while you have no more than 1 card in your hand, you can draw cards until you have 2 cards in your hand.”

 

When I don’t need to go for Catastor, this guy is the alternative. Not to mention the +’s he can get you if you don’t have that many cards in hand. 2300 atk is nice, too.

 

[spoiler=Heavenly King Black Highlander]

“1 Fiend-Type Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner Fiend-Type monsters.

While this card is face-up on the field, neither player can Synchro Summon. Once per turn, you can activate this effect by selecting 1 of your opponent's monsters equipped with an Equip Card. Destroy all Equip Cards equipped to the selected monster, and for each card destroyed this way inflict 400 damage to your opponent.”

 

2800 ATK, stops opponent from Synchro Summoning, he’s pretty good in this deck if you don’t want to Synchro swarm for a bit.

 

 

 

Other ideas

 

[spoiler=More Fableds]

“While you control a face-up "Fabled" monster, you can send this card from your hand to the Graveyard to add 1 "Fabled" monster other than "Fabled Grimro" from your Deck to your hand.”

 

Searching Raven can be a problem, especially since you can’t mill it with Armageddon Knight, this could possibly be useful.

 

 

You can instantly put Raven in the grave for Puppet use if you want a level 2 tuner instead of a level 3 tuner, and this is a level 3 tuner for a wider option of Synchros.

 

 

 

Battle Fader

 

Genex Birdman

 

Grow Up Bulb

 

Infernity Avenger

 

Some not-so-obvious plays with this deck:

 

Pro Starlight-

One thing you can do is summon Puppet Master, and Special Summon Fiends that would normally get hit by Bottomless. If your opponent chains Bottomless, you can Starlight Road since Bottomless would destroy 2 monsters. You now also have 2 beaters out and Stardust. Of course you can do this with a bunch of different decks, but it seems so much easier in this deck.

 

More to come later?

 

 

Now, I know that there isn’t much in this guide, but the idea is still pretty new, and it could also use some help from the community (although a lot of advice will be bad).

Looks interesting. I might test it out later, if I feel like it.

 

Off topic: lolol 3,333rd post.

[Sephiroth_The_Legend]

that is cool.

i must say, you've made Puppet Master useful.

[Brandon Michael Geren]

Good deck.

[Zauls]

Sound good. How well does it test? How fast it is? How many Synchros do you get? Are you making this IRL? Why all the questions?

[byak]

I've tested hands, done some opening moves. The deck needs more searchability.

I was considering Recurring Nightmare for Puppet Master and some other target, but idk.

Maybe run a DARK Fiend Tuner in addition, or more Fableds.

[Catterjune]

Deck looks like ass, though considering the source I shouldn't be surprised.

 

On a slightly-less trolly note. How about something that benefits by being sent to the grave. Not something that fuels OTK or Synchros or w/e. Something that actually does well by being discarded, like Necro Gardna or Plaguespreader Zombie or something.

[Mister Sir]

Running Emissary from Pandemonium was your first mistake.

[~ P O L A R I S ~]

So it's like Zombie Monarchs but waaaaaaaay worse? Oh, and Zombie Monarchs suck now btw.
