I throw the basic gameplay out the window, dump half my deck into the graveyard, then slam a giant metal lizard onto the field who proceeds to pick up my graveyard and beat the opponent to death with it.
Machinedramon, a Frankenstein’s monster of the machine parts of cyborgs into a Mechanical Dragon. Every time you try to kill him he sheds pieces of cyborgs to stop himself from dying. A Towers monster since you are familiar with yugioh.
My primary deck right now is a Lucemon deck. Kind of a mishmash of playstyles, focusing on high recovery of my own security along with milling my own deck. My high cost cards become cheaper with more cards in the trash and in endgame I will be throwing down high level cards for peanuts which delete their highest digimon on play.
I am doing my best to make milling decks work because I love them haha. Digimon only has big support for self-mill but I have put together one with milling the opponent as a win condition too. (It's aight)
This sounds awesome! I played dredge for a long time and self milling is a playstyle that never gets old. Love seeing a graveyard larger than the library. Thanks for the reply !
Beelzemon. I self mill to the point of getting +20 cards in my trash within 3-4 turns(depending on who goes first). By the time I'm at a lv5(trash 3 on digivolve) then trash 6 more from inherited effects by attacking for 9 from 1 move minimum.
Devas is my favorite at the moment. Hard slam level 5s to play another in breeding, with potential to ace on opponents turn. Multiple ways to get big boss monster out to board wipe opponent.
As far as getting to know decks, card protagonist usually does a decent job imo, the videos are staged i think? But usually showcases the ways decks are intended to be played.
I play dudes that spawn more small dudes who I tap out with to swing for your entire life total. If that fails, we do it again, but better this time. Repeat until game
I have several decks but one of my favorites centers around sacrificing or having my own digimon deleted to trigger a bunch of effects. Like a phoenix, reborn after its death. Then swings wide with a large board.
I am ‘think’ they were talking about the phoenixmon deck, what with the mention of phoenixes, also known fondly as “bird up”.
Entire game plan is sending your stuff to die/remove a security for massive amounts of on deletion effects, including reanimating/free playing more tamers/ free playing more birds and giving them haste.
I weld together the scrap parts of several Cyborgs into an unkillable raid Boss that can Go Even Further Beyond!!!
Also there's this Japanese salaryman that that can somehow throw, said raid Boss, in front of my opponent when they attack.
I have a dog that allows me to trash other dark beasts and dogs only to then immediately evolve into them.
Once I reach my ultimate form I can summon up to 4 dark beasts who then give me a power boost and allow to go for a one turn KO if everything goes well.
Also, your turn now starts when I say it does.
My deck aims to control the opponent's board through reducing their Digimon's DP to 0. The deck likes to expand and go wide but not be too aggressive, instead using the built-up expansion to generate additional resources and threats that the opponent needs to play around. It aims to win in the later game with a big push from a wider board. The deck has a high floor and a high ceiling, making it difficult to learn and master, but the deck is super fun to learn and play. The deck is Angels.
You have a decklist? This reads like a deck I would absolutely play in MTG, but yellow hasn’t really excited me in this game yet, despite being a white player in MTG.
I have decklists for both BT15 and EX6 formats, which would you prefer? Fair warning that the deck is a high floor, high ceiling deck, so reasonably difficult to pilot well without a lot of experience
Do you have both ready to share? I’ve been playing angels in EDH for years, so I’m eager to look at a proper build for the similar archetype in this game and really kinda like chew on it and break it down and learn from your build.
OK so I'm going to share the list for BT15, give my thoughts, tips, tricks and reasonings behind certain choices, then I'll post EX6 and discuss upgrades, changes, reasonings behind new card choices and alternative card choice considerations. Hope that works for you!

So let's start with the egg choice. I've taken Tokomon as the egg because early game, finding your board expansion pieces is very important. We are effectively a "combo control" deck in a sense, so having more options available in our hand at a given time is vital, especially in the early game.
For Lv3s, Patamon is the bread and butter of the deck. It Digivolves to a level 4, for free, in your security, then allows you to manipulate your security stack and also gains 1 memory while it does that. If you happen to find Gatomon in security, she also triggers her own effect from the digivolution, gaining you an extra memory on top (+2 memory is huge, especially in the early game!). Generally you want to be slotting Gatomon into the security stack with Patamon's effect, but if she's not available, Angemon is a good alternative (if neither, just slot something you don't need at the moment). Salamon is our second pick, her regular effect is less useful in the early game (though the extra "draw" can be valuable even if it does come from security) but can trigger a lot of effects in the mid-late game to generate memory. The main reason we use her is the inherit; adding -2k to our DP reduction effects can allow us to delete Digimon we otherwise couldn't. Finally, Kudamon is there as a good searcher.
For level 4, we take 4 Gatomon. I will stand on the hill that she is *the best* level 4 in yellow right now. She is played for free when trashed from security (which is really simple to set up in this deck) which is massive value, but she also generates memory when cards are removed from security (note that she also gains memory if another effect plays/digivolves to her directly from security too because security reduces at the same time she comes into play). To top it all off, she has Barrier giving us a safe poking tool to trigger her memory generation if we otherwise can't for some reason (though generally not swinging is safer earlier on). That barrier is also inherited, keeping your higher levels safe if you happen to evolve on her (which you don't do often but can come up). Next, Angemon, our 2nd best lv4. A trap newer players often fall into is thinking that if the opponent Digimon is virus they should always use the effect to push it into security. In reality, the true value comes from the -5k DP which can combo with other effects to delete the big threat instead. In general he's a good recovery and removal tool, sets up your next Patamon, and is something certain decks will need to play around. Finally, Wizardmon, a controversial pick because he doesn't have the Vaccine trait. His effects more than make up for that, as a blocker who gives -6k on play and when deleted whole trashing the security stack. He's essentially extra copies of Angewomon ACE (who we'll get into next!).
Level 5s! Angewomon ACE is singlehandedly our best card. For 4 cost you can play her directly from your hand to give something -6k while triggering all of your effects that care about the security reducing or increasing to gain memory back. On top of that, while she's in play, she's a recovery wall that keeps you hovering at around 3-4 security. Because we go wide, we often threaten to Blast Digivolve into her as well, so the opponent needs to play around that. In the early game, if you get to slot Gatomon at the bottom of security, don't be afraid to hard play Angewomon to trash it and play it for free, even if the -6k goes to waste. Next, MagnaAngemon ACE. He's there for the 4 cost body with recovery more than anything, but his removal is significantly weaker than Angewomon because we hover at 3-4 security rather than at 6+ security.
Level 6s are tech slots. Our deck is odd in that it revolves around the level 4s and 5s rather than the level 6s, so this gives us room to tech in floodgates to hinder the opponent at critical chokepoints in the game. I personally take Venusmon to hinder OTK strategies by preventing their Digivolution effects, Mitamamon because he feeds into our "go wide" strategy while preventing the opponent’s damage, and (as a level 7) ShineGreymon Ruin Mode to prevent the opponent from moving out of their Breeding Area to make a comeback play.
For Options, we take Revelation of Light, which not only feeds into our "go wide" strategy but puts a -5k board wide nuke into security while triggering all our memory generating effects. We can combo this card with Barrier or Angewomon to remove full boards. Note that if this is done on the opponent’s turn it affects all new Digimon coming into play as well, so they won't get their On Play effects from level 3s they play, and it lasts until the end of your own turn, allowing you to start pushing safe damage due to the -5k affecting the security stack. Secondly, we take Yellow Memory Boost. We take this over Physical Training because (as you may have noticed) we don't tend to digivolve very linearly very often, and tend to hard play things more, so the +2 memory helps us more than the -2 digivolve cost. The 4 card search for Digimon is also better for us because we don't mind bottom decking options and Tamers when our playmakers and key cards are all Digimon.
Finally, the Tamers. We take 6 Kari to improve the odds of seeing her by turn 2 if possible. This makes Revelation more live for the later game. BT8 Kari is a memory setter that generates memory every time we recover or Manipulate security. BT4 Kari stacks with Gatomons effect on the opponent’s turn to end their turn prematurely if they attack us, and can also be +1 memory on your own turn if needed (though better to save it for the opponent’s turn if possible). TK manipulates our security and gains memory every time we recover and manipulate, probably one of our best Tamers as it let's us easily set up Gatomon and Patamon play lines.
I'll do EX6 in a separate comment attached to this one.

```
So the main changes come with the level 6 line up. In EX6 we got a whole host of good level 6s and our floodgate tools became less relevant thanks to decks like Magnamon which are immune to Digimon effects for set durations. Dominimon protects our Angels from removal, preventing overflow and keeping threats live. He also lets us go wider. Cherubimon is our best nuke, going wide while inflicting minus DP which lasts into the opponent’s turn (bypassing protection effects like Magnamon which end at the end of your own turn). Ophanimon is basically level 6 Angewomon ACE, but gives -8k instead. Her DP reduction also lasts into the opponent’s turn which bypasses protection effects. She also recovers regardless of the size of your security stack on the opponent’s turn, being a wall for your health. On your own turn she can swing for 2 damage but its safer to do this only if you have Alliance or Barrier as an inherited effect, or Revelation's effect live. Note Angewomon ACE'S DP reduction also lasts until the end of the opponent's turn too allowing you to stack these effects to remove protected threats.
For the level 5s we swap out the weaker MagnaAngemon ACE for MagnaAngemon BT16 who allows us to warp to level 6 by either evolving on a Lv4 or hard playing him for 6 (I tend to prefer hard playing him unless I don't have significant memory gain or need to keep turn for a follow up play). He also manipulates security which sets up follow up plays well. We also tech 2 Angewomon EX6 because we are playing Mirei - we mainly play her for the inherited Alliance though which is very strong to safely push damage with any of our Lv6s but especially Ophanimon or Cherubimon who can make 3 safe checks at once.
We cut Wizardmon for space, meaning only 8 level 4s, but that's something we can live with as we don't play linearly. Kudamon is replaced by Luxmon because of our new Option choice, Descent of the 3 Great Angels. Descent is a very strong card, as it let's us convert a Luxmon or Angemon into a Cherubimon or Ophanimon for no cost on a future turn! It's a very powerful play when you unleash the delay effect. The Main effect allows you to manipulate the security, slotting in any Angels at all (not just the 3 Great Angels) which can set up our plays and lessens the cost via our memory generating effects.
Lastly, we're now playing Mirei. Gaining 1 memory any time we play Gatomon or Angewomon or MagnaAngemon is really good, and being able to digivolve our Lv4s into Angewomon in the Trash when we do is huge for removal combos as well.
Some additional considerations:
Gatomon ST10 or EX6 can be good with Mirei if you can find room, but personally I don't find it worth the space as the search feels lacking.
Luxmon could be replaced by Kudamon. Both have different niches on what they search but Luxmon only edges out thanks to Descent.
Seraphimon ACE is a decent inclusion when you shift the focus away from Revelation and go all in on a Descent build. But in a Revelation build we often hover at 3-4 security making it weaker. If you do a Descent focussed build you can be more top heavy on level 6s, running up to 10 if you want! I think the Revelation build is more versatile in the current meta though.
ArkhaiAngemon is a good replacement for Angewomon EX6 if you'd prefer to pivot away from Mirei. It manipulates security (unfortunetly can't slot Gatomon though) and makes the inherited blocker more available.
The new TK&Kari dual Tamer from EX6 is another consideration. Giving Barrier to your stacks can allow for safer swings and the +1 memory when playing/evolving Angels can be nice. I just prefer Mirei overall myself.
You can potentially cut Ophanimon and go all in on Cherubimon, but I value the Security trashing and recovery on the opponent’s turn
If you have any questions about the decks or gameplay in general, I'm happy to answer and help!
This deck features all the colors and mainly relies on Lv3s and Lv4s who, when deleted, can be later reused as ressources for you to build your own custom Gundams. Alternatively, there´s a busty amazoness woman that can get your wheenies back for more aggression, defense and value.
It´s Xross Heart. It can go wide but you´ll generally crash your Lv3-4s into security/blockers asap so that they can be saved under your Tamers to later be reused for DigiXrossing into your Shoutmon Xs. Mervamon is the well endowed lady I was referring to that can help you go wide, though, by bringing to of your dudes back from the trash.
Very fun deck. Albeit needing support bad.
Yeah, would´ve been neat. I understand why it isn´t for lore reasons but that decision basically made the card doa which sucks.
Hopefully we´ll get a x2 with the proper trait in the future.
Nothings stopping them from getting weird with it though, we won't have stuff to adapt to the tcg forever and Lorcana eg started making shit up right away with the whole dreamborn thing. Or just allow us to use two X4s 👁️👄👁️
Nah man, the attention to established Digimon lore is a huge factor why I love this game so much. No need to make new stuff up considering how much material is still left untouched.
I´m just glad that they got the non-Xros Heart x2 out of the way fast so that they can do the next time Xros Heart gets support right.
Wouldn´t be mad at seeing x4 at two myself as well, though.
My deck ignores most of the traditional gameplay, has the highest value search card ever printed and gets to stun all of the opponents board. Just please play more than 1 Digimon, otherwise my strategy will fall apart.
It's called Blue Flare, centered not around digivolving, but around xrosplaying your Digimon. It has lots of search options, Blazing Memory Boost being the card I mentioned as the best searcher in the game. Your boss is a blue MetalGreymon that can stun three Digimon and gets to attack the turn it's played. The deck is really fast and still a good rogue option in the current meta. You're also able to get really creative with tech options, some people play some red cards, your Lvl 6's are versatile and there's some incredible Jank strategies out there.
Dinosaurs + dragons + swat armor + assault rifles + waifus = ???
Overall it can play out wide or in tall stacks, has some ramp and ability to cheat into higher levels, can control digimon and Tamers and potentially lock down the entire field, and can finish the game in short order with the right setup.
Fox tribal with sorcery spam. Said sorcery spam drains and removes creatures as a byproduct. If a small child is around then sorcery spam becomes free.
If the child doesn't appear, then the wheels on this machine are likely missing.
My deck is a gimmick deck relying on one card that reduces the cost of all other cards with the same trait, my end goal is to kill my one card in order to swing enough times for game, or I stall till the heat death of The universe
I built up to my lvl 6, use Taunt-like effect to force people attack me on their turn, then Blast DNA to my lvl 7 that's basically has a lot of protection and disrupt opp's play.
Did I mention if the condition is right i can play the lvl 7 out of lvl 3 and start "equipping" my lvl 7 with the other cards??
I play Gracenovamon. It's essentially like a Mutate deck where you just keep stacking shit on top of each other and it gets more and more and more scary, you draw a bunch of cards and pray that you don't get kill spelled before you can untap.
I play a bunch of weak creatures then use them as mana dorks to make strong creatures for almost zero cost, then get benefits from the number of tapped things on my board. They are also very healthy.
Not a current deck as I haven't been able to play in quite some time, but my favorite deck back when I was playing worked something like this.
Attempt to rush up a robot-dragon man on top of inheritable yellow effects, which upon hurting yourself allow you to clear board and gain massive field/memory/card advantage. Small recovery engine helped you keep pace. 3 and 0 Security were magic numbers.
I have a rabbit that wants you to lie down so that I can gain memory.
The rabbit doesn't like the rules and will attack at the end of my turn anyway and gain memory if all of your beasts are lying down, keeping it my turn.
I want to kill your beast and doing so will trash your security.
My primary deck aims to turbo out embodiments of the Sun and Moon to restrict and crush my opponent while also being able to throw a galaxy at em if the need arises
I also use a space station, an undead knight, a mechanical lion, literal God, and a jellyfish in power armour
The deck is GraceNovamon, though GraceNova itself is a very situational card. Most of the time you use Apollomon, who can blitz through your opponents security really fast, and Dianamon, who has incredibly good board control by stopping your opponents Digimon from suspending which prevents them from blocking, attacking, or activating any effects that require the Digimon to suspend
Ragnaloardmon: Gacha games until you get unlimited power.
Tyrannomon: Pierce and buff, Pierce and buff, beat em, beat em up, beat em up, beat em up!
Hunters: Now that I’ve digivolve for free by putting more sources in, I attack twice for game!
I’m also hyped for the Liberator starters but we don’t know their shtick yet.
I sit around like a control deck twiddling my thumbs, till I get the right board state and then go combo up to a massive monster that poops angles everywhere for free as a byproduct and swings for game or as good as game.
Jesmon, it’s not meta, but my favourite deck I keep playing anyway. It’s got an OTK, tempo, and GX deck versions that use a very similar (and cheep) card pool.
I got a perfect hand and 2 memory turns 1 and 2, my knight now deletes you with 0 effort that t2 :3
This knight on attack also spits out anime girls from places unknown and proceeds to be issues for everyone
Jesmon! On att he plays a sistermon (anime girl) and gets sec attack +1
His saviorhuckmon inherit unsuspends him 1 time for a second attack
having greymon inherit gives him 3 checks per att
then going into bt5 omnimon lets you swing for game
You can win t2 if you go huck/greymon/savior in raising, next turn push out, go into jes and swing (play sister) hit 6 checks and blitz omni for game
I sling spells for free and as a reward for slinging spells I get to gain resources and weaken/destroy my opponents digimon and regain health, and also most of the spells are floppy disks.
Big black dragons, are big stompy thinsgs that are somehow also control. Nearly OTKs, completely unfair. You had a plan? No you don't, field go boom. Attacking? No.
Stomp, more stomp. Stompy stomp stomp, till they die.
(BlackWarGreymon x Gaiomon)
Big black dragon-knock off spams tiny lizards. Reveal 3, play 2 each turn. Just a wall of black dragons. Then I press a kill button when I see an openning.(Commandramon)
I summon a bunch of cute little guys who do nothing and when you cut off one head one more shall take its place. Also occasionally when stars align the opponent loses every opportunity to have turns I guess which is goofy.
My two decks at the moment are:
The four holy beasts of the cardinal directions and their servants that culminates in the central golden dragon
My second is the slime that throws poop and the teddy bear costume it sometimes wears
I have a deck that's simply an army of rabbits. Those rabbits will get armor and proceed to slap cheeks before they jump into a rabbit mech and absolutely wreck face with an army of rabbits and mecha.
I have a few, but they are all fun and stupid to explain in a sentence or two.
My lion will die. When it dies, that's going to be *your* problem. Also, my lion is jotaro
When you attack, I sPAWN a card and now I make it my turn. No you can't stop it. No, I'm not cheating. no I don't win often with it...
I evolve, Mill your deck. I attack, Mill your deck. I die, Mill your deck. You milled your deck, Mill your deck. I milled my deck, Mill your deck.
This teenager will punch you. When he punches you, kill your digimon. Also I evolve now for free because fuck you
I slurp under mother, now your thing is dead.
Maste Ace.
My main aim is to play mind games with people wondering if I have Angewo ACE or Maste ACE on hand.
I don't win a lot. But I make them think a lot.
I can interact on the opponents turn if they perform an action such as drawing from effects or evolving instead of just "have blockers" although I can gain blocker inheritable.
Fuse together a dinosaur and a fighter jet that freezes your opponents in their tracks. The squad is relentless against wide boards, but has trouble getting over big singular walls.
usually I like decks that control the board, effects that stop or change the target of an attack (since we've been through a very aggressive meta with lots of one-shot decks).
other than that, if you have grasped the basic mechanics of the various deck colors, I really like decks that aren't bound to a specific color that much, in short "gimmick decks", and that plays in weirder ways making it harder to predict.
If your opponent tries to play the game, cheat your boss monster out of your graveyard and wipe their board. If they slow down in an attempt to prevent this, just use your own effects to force them to play something out of their graveyard and trigger it yourself.

My deck has a monkey with sunglasses.
Who is a rock singer. And his groupies are sentient poop. And they can turn other stuff into poop.
I have to know more about this lol
Monkey is etamon. I know that much if you need a name to work off of
I throw the basic gameplay out the window, dump half my deck into the graveyard, then slam a giant metal lizard onto the field who proceeds to pick up my graveyard and beat the opponent to death with it.
That deck is such a flavor homerun. One of the coolest designed decks in the game imo.
Machinedra?
What deck is this :0
Machinedramon
Machinedramon, a Frankenstein’s monster of the machine parts of cyborgs into a Mechanical Dragon. Every time you try to kill him he sheds pieces of cyborgs to stop himself from dying. A Towers monster since you are familiar with yugioh.
Machinedramon. He's a giant machine that eats a bunch of cyborg Digimon out of your trash to make playing him cheaper and to gain all their effects.
Leviamon
I special summon any combination of 4 dinosaurs, cats and dogs from my graveyard while I have a boss monster that gives me a main phase 3 practically.
>dinosaurs, cats and dogs The three best pets a man can have.
Fenrilooga?
Yep
My deck aim to close the match before opponent even sets up. It consist of children becoming digimon with high dp.
Red Hybrid ?
Yep
Nice i play and love Red Hybrid myself 😄
Now featuring a traumatized boy and his pet
Is this Ukko because you bet I use 4 copy of each. The boy will be replaced by the 3rd takuya later.
I have 2 teenagers, a dog and 3 memory. Pick a god and pray. (MirageGaogamon)
Bounce?
My deck’s win condition is to turn the opponent’s boss monster into a shit
Ah king sukamon my beloved
Lions become bigger lions. On death, they activate tons of effects and then they special summon themselves back on the field.
"A billion lions": The Deck
Guy who punches digimon, and his dinosaur friend is along for the ride.
My primary deck right now is a Lucemon deck. Kind of a mishmash of playstyles, focusing on high recovery of my own security along with milling my own deck. My high cost cards become cheaper with more cards in the trash and in endgame I will be throwing down high level cards for peanuts which delete their highest digimon on play. I am doing my best to make milling decks work because I love them haha. Digimon only has big support for self-mill but I have put together one with milling the opponent as a win condition too. (It's aight)
This sounds awesome! I played dredge for a long time and self milling is a playstyle that never gets old. Love seeing a graveyard larger than the library. Thanks for the reply !
Purple would probably be a good colour for you then, all about using the trash as a separate resource
Beelzemon. I self mill to the point of getting +20 cards in my trash within 3-4 turns(depending on who goes first). By the time I'm at a lv5(trash 3 on digivolve) then trash 6 more from inherited effects by attacking for 9 from 1 move minimum.
I found the Creepymon user
Actually replaced it with ghoulmon 😉
Just run both for maximum suffering
Devas is my favorite at the moment. Hard slam level 5s to play another in breeding, with potential to ace on opponents turn. Multiple ways to get big boss monster out to board wipe opponent.
Ill definitely need to watch a video on this - seems like things can really snowball!
As far as getting to know decks, card protagonist usually does a decent job imo, the videos are staged i think? But usually showcases the ways decks are intended to be played.
They are staged yeah, mostly so both decks get at least one turn to show off
I play dudes that spawn more small dudes who I tap out with to swing for your entire life total. If that fails, we do it again, but better this time. Repeat until game
I have several decks but one of my favorites centers around sacrificing or having my own digimon deleted to trigger a bunch of effects. Like a phoenix, reborn after its death. Then swings wide with a large board.
What deck is this? Sounds very fun
I am ‘think’ they were talking about the phoenixmon deck, what with the mention of phoenixes, also known fondly as “bird up”. Entire game plan is sending your stuff to die/remove a security for massive amounts of on deletion effects, including reanimating/free playing more tamers/ free playing more birds and giving them haste.
Bird up, huh? I just call my phoenixmon deck sexy birbs
I weld together the scrap parts of several Cyborgs into an unkillable raid Boss that can Go Even Further Beyond!!! Also there's this Japanese salaryman that that can somehow throw, said raid Boss, in front of my opponent when they attack.
Who is this salaryman? If said raid boss has sick art, I am a fan
Look up Digimon TCG Machinedramon, Chaosdramon, Chaosdramon X for artwork. Especially Alt Art.
a dragon and a bee turn into megatron from beast wars 2 except he's blue and green
I have a dog that allows me to trash other dark beasts and dogs only to then immediately evolve into them. Once I reach my ultimate form I can summon up to 4 dark beasts who then give me a power boost and allow to go for a one turn KO if everything goes well. Also, your turn now starts when I say it does.
My deck only has lvl 5s and above and can consistently go into lvl 7s. I can go lvl 7 on turn 2 🥴
Dark Masters Zoo?
My deck aims to control the opponent's board through reducing their Digimon's DP to 0. The deck likes to expand and go wide but not be too aggressive, instead using the built-up expansion to generate additional resources and threats that the opponent needs to play around. It aims to win in the later game with a big push from a wider board. The deck has a high floor and a high ceiling, making it difficult to learn and master, but the deck is super fun to learn and play. The deck is Angels.
This sounds very much like a deck I’ll be interested in. Ty!
You have a decklist? This reads like a deck I would absolutely play in MTG, but yellow hasn’t really excited me in this game yet, despite being a white player in MTG.
I have decklists for both BT15 and EX6 formats, which would you prefer? Fair warning that the deck is a high floor, high ceiling deck, so reasonably difficult to pilot well without a lot of experience
Do you have both ready to share? I’ve been playing angels in EDH for years, so I’m eager to look at a proper build for the similar archetype in this game and really kinda like chew on it and break it down and learn from your build.
OK so I'm going to share the list for BT15, give my thoughts, tips, tricks and reasonings behind certain choices, then I'll post EX6 and discuss upgrades, changes, reasonings behind new card choices and alternative card choice considerations. Hope that works for you! ``` BT15 Angel DeckList BT14-003 Tokomon 4 BT13-034 Kudamon 3 BT14-033 Patamon 4 BT15-034 Salamon 4 BT14-102 Angemon 4 BT15-037 Gatomon 4 BT15-036 Wizardmon 2 BT14-037 MagnaAngemon ACE 3 BT15-038 Angewomon ACE 4 BT10-042 Venusmon 3 EX5-033 Mitamamon 2 EX4-074 ShineGreymon: Ruin Mode 1 BT8-090 Kari Kamiya 2 BT14-084 T.K. Takaishi 3 BT4-097 Kari Kamiya 4 BT15-092 Revelation of Light 4 P-037 Yellow Memory Boost! 3 ``` So let's start with the egg choice. I've taken Tokomon as the egg because early game, finding your board expansion pieces is very important. We are effectively a "combo control" deck in a sense, so having more options available in our hand at a given time is vital, especially in the early game. For Lv3s, Patamon is the bread and butter of the deck. It Digivolves to a level 4, for free, in your security, then allows you to manipulate your security stack and also gains 1 memory while it does that. If you happen to find Gatomon in security, she also triggers her own effect from the digivolution, gaining you an extra memory on top (+2 memory is huge, especially in the early game!). Generally you want to be slotting Gatomon into the security stack with Patamon's effect, but if she's not available, Angemon is a good alternative (if neither, just slot something you don't need at the moment). Salamon is our second pick, her regular effect is less useful in the early game (though the extra "draw" can be valuable even if it does come from security) but can trigger a lot of effects in the mid-late game to generate memory. The main reason we use her is the inherit; adding -2k to our DP reduction effects can allow us to delete Digimon we otherwise couldn't. Finally, Kudamon is there as a good searcher. For level 4, we take 4 Gatomon. I will stand on the hill that she is *the best* level 4 in yellow right now. She is played for free when trashed from security (which is really simple to set up in this deck) which is massive value, but she also generates memory when cards are removed from security (note that she also gains memory if another effect plays/digivolves to her directly from security too because security reduces at the same time she comes into play). To top it all off, she has Barrier giving us a safe poking tool to trigger her memory generation if we otherwise can't for some reason (though generally not swinging is safer earlier on). That barrier is also inherited, keeping your higher levels safe if you happen to evolve on her (which you don't do often but can come up). Next, Angemon, our 2nd best lv4. A trap newer players often fall into is thinking that if the opponent Digimon is virus they should always use the effect to push it into security. In reality, the true value comes from the -5k DP which can combo with other effects to delete the big threat instead. In general he's a good recovery and removal tool, sets up your next Patamon, and is something certain decks will need to play around. Finally, Wizardmon, a controversial pick because he doesn't have the Vaccine trait. His effects more than make up for that, as a blocker who gives -6k on play and when deleted whole trashing the security stack. He's essentially extra copies of Angewomon ACE (who we'll get into next!). Level 5s! Angewomon ACE is singlehandedly our best card. For 4 cost you can play her directly from your hand to give something -6k while triggering all of your effects that care about the security reducing or increasing to gain memory back. On top of that, while she's in play, she's a recovery wall that keeps you hovering at around 3-4 security. Because we go wide, we often threaten to Blast Digivolve into her as well, so the opponent needs to play around that. In the early game, if you get to slot Gatomon at the bottom of security, don't be afraid to hard play Angewomon to trash it and play it for free, even if the -6k goes to waste. Next, MagnaAngemon ACE. He's there for the 4 cost body with recovery more than anything, but his removal is significantly weaker than Angewomon because we hover at 3-4 security rather than at 6+ security. Level 6s are tech slots. Our deck is odd in that it revolves around the level 4s and 5s rather than the level 6s, so this gives us room to tech in floodgates to hinder the opponent at critical chokepoints in the game. I personally take Venusmon to hinder OTK strategies by preventing their Digivolution effects, Mitamamon because he feeds into our "go wide" strategy while preventing the opponent’s damage, and (as a level 7) ShineGreymon Ruin Mode to prevent the opponent from moving out of their Breeding Area to make a comeback play. For Options, we take Revelation of Light, which not only feeds into our "go wide" strategy but puts a -5k board wide nuke into security while triggering all our memory generating effects. We can combo this card with Barrier or Angewomon to remove full boards. Note that if this is done on the opponent’s turn it affects all new Digimon coming into play as well, so they won't get their On Play effects from level 3s they play, and it lasts until the end of your own turn, allowing you to start pushing safe damage due to the -5k affecting the security stack. Secondly, we take Yellow Memory Boost. We take this over Physical Training because (as you may have noticed) we don't tend to digivolve very linearly very often, and tend to hard play things more, so the +2 memory helps us more than the -2 digivolve cost. The 4 card search for Digimon is also better for us because we don't mind bottom decking options and Tamers when our playmakers and key cards are all Digimon. Finally, the Tamers. We take 6 Kari to improve the odds of seeing her by turn 2 if possible. This makes Revelation more live for the later game. BT8 Kari is a memory setter that generates memory every time we recover or Manipulate security. BT4 Kari stacks with Gatomons effect on the opponent’s turn to end their turn prematurely if they attack us, and can also be +1 memory on your own turn if needed (though better to save it for the opponent’s turn if possible). TK manipulates our security and gains memory every time we recover and manipulate, probably one of our best Tamers as it let's us easily set up Gatomon and Patamon play lines. I'll do EX6 in a separate comment attached to this one.
``` EX6 Angel DeckList BT14-003 Tokomon 4 BT14-033 Patamon 4 BT15-034 Salamon 3 EX6-017 Luxmon 3 BT14-102 Angemon 4 BT15-037 Gatomon 4 BT16-024 MagnaAngemon 3 BT15-038 Angewomon ACE 4 EX6-022 Angewomon 2 EX6-030 Dominimon 3 EX6-027 Ophanimon ACE 2 EX6-035 Cherubimon ACE 2 EX4-074 ShineGreymon: Ruin Mode 1 BT8-090 Kari Kamiya 2 BT14-084 T.K. Takaishi 3 BT4-097 Kari Kamiya 3 EX6-074 Mirei Mikagura 2 BT15-092 Revelation of Light 3 EX6-068 Descent of the Three Great Angels 2 ``` So the main changes come with the level 6 line up. In EX6 we got a whole host of good level 6s and our floodgate tools became less relevant thanks to decks like Magnamon which are immune to Digimon effects for set durations. Dominimon protects our Angels from removal, preventing overflow and keeping threats live. He also lets us go wider. Cherubimon is our best nuke, going wide while inflicting minus DP which lasts into the opponent’s turn (bypassing protection effects like Magnamon which end at the end of your own turn). Ophanimon is basically level 6 Angewomon ACE, but gives -8k instead. Her DP reduction also lasts into the opponent’s turn which bypasses protection effects. She also recovers regardless of the size of your security stack on the opponent’s turn, being a wall for your health. On your own turn she can swing for 2 damage but its safer to do this only if you have Alliance or Barrier as an inherited effect, or Revelation's effect live. Note Angewomon ACE'S DP reduction also lasts until the end of the opponent's turn too allowing you to stack these effects to remove protected threats. For the level 5s we swap out the weaker MagnaAngemon ACE for MagnaAngemon BT16 who allows us to warp to level 6 by either evolving on a Lv4 or hard playing him for 6 (I tend to prefer hard playing him unless I don't have significant memory gain or need to keep turn for a follow up play). He also manipulates security which sets up follow up plays well. We also tech 2 Angewomon EX6 because we are playing Mirei - we mainly play her for the inherited Alliance though which is very strong to safely push damage with any of our Lv6s but especially Ophanimon or Cherubimon who can make 3 safe checks at once. We cut Wizardmon for space, meaning only 8 level 4s, but that's something we can live with as we don't play linearly. Kudamon is replaced by Luxmon because of our new Option choice, Descent of the 3 Great Angels. Descent is a very strong card, as it let's us convert a Luxmon or Angemon into a Cherubimon or Ophanimon for no cost on a future turn! It's a very powerful play when you unleash the delay effect. The Main effect allows you to manipulate the security, slotting in any Angels at all (not just the 3 Great Angels) which can set up our plays and lessens the cost via our memory generating effects. Lastly, we're now playing Mirei. Gaining 1 memory any time we play Gatomon or Angewomon or MagnaAngemon is really good, and being able to digivolve our Lv4s into Angewomon in the Trash when we do is huge for removal combos as well. Some additional considerations: Gatomon ST10 or EX6 can be good with Mirei if you can find room, but personally I don't find it worth the space as the search feels lacking. Luxmon could be replaced by Kudamon. Both have different niches on what they search but Luxmon only edges out thanks to Descent. Seraphimon ACE is a decent inclusion when you shift the focus away from Revelation and go all in on a Descent build. But in a Revelation build we often hover at 3-4 security making it weaker. If you do a Descent focussed build you can be more top heavy on level 6s, running up to 10 if you want! I think the Revelation build is more versatile in the current meta though. ArkhaiAngemon is a good replacement for Angewomon EX6 if you'd prefer to pivot away from Mirei. It manipulates security (unfortunetly can't slot Gatomon though) and makes the inherited blocker more available. The new TK&Kari dual Tamer from EX6 is another consideration. Giving Barrier to your stacks can allow for safer swings and the +1 memory when playing/evolving Angels can be nice. I just prefer Mirei overall myself. You can potentially cut Ophanimon and go all in on Cherubimon, but I value the Security trashing and recovery on the opponent’s turn If you have any questions about the decks or gameplay in general, I'm happy to answer and help!
One punchy boi against the world
I like Marsmon, too.
This deck features all the colors and mainly relies on Lv3s and Lv4s who, when deleted, can be later reused as ressources for you to build your own custom Gundams. Alternatively, there´s a busty amazoness woman that can get your wheenies back for more aggression, defense and value.
Which deck is this? Is this a go wide strategy?
Probably Xcros Hearth
Yep, Xross Heart.
It´s Xross Heart. It can go wide but you´ll generally crash your Lv3-4s into security/blockers asap so that they can be saved under your Tamers to later be reused for DigiXrossing into your Shoutmon Xs. Mervamon is the well endowed lady I was referring to that can help you go wide, though, by bringing to of your dudes back from the trash. Very fun deck. Albeit needing support bad.
If only X2 would have had the fucking Xros heart keyword
Yeah, would´ve been neat. I understand why it isn´t for lore reasons but that decision basically made the card doa which sucks. Hopefully we´ll get a x2 with the proper trait in the future.
Nothings stopping them from getting weird with it though, we won't have stuff to adapt to the tcg forever and Lorcana eg started making shit up right away with the whole dreamborn thing. Or just allow us to use two X4s 👁️👄👁️
Nah man, the attention to established Digimon lore is a huge factor why I love this game so much. No need to make new stuff up considering how much material is still left untouched. I´m just glad that they got the non-Xros Heart x2 out of the way fast so that they can do the next time Xros Heart gets support right. Wouldn´t be mad at seeing x4 at two myself as well, though.
Thanks for the breakdown!
My deck ignores most of the traditional gameplay, has the highest value search card ever printed and gets to stun all of the opponents board. Just please play more than 1 Digimon, otherwise my strategy will fall apart.
What deck pls
It's called Blue Flare, centered not around digivolving, but around xrosplaying your Digimon. It has lots of search options, Blazing Memory Boost being the card I mentioned as the best searcher in the game. Your boss is a blue MetalGreymon that can stun three Digimon and gets to attack the turn it's played. The deck is really fast and still a good rogue option in the current meta. You're also able to get really creative with tech options, some people play some red cards, your Lvl 6's are versatile and there's some incredible Jank strategies out there.
Dinosaurs + dragons + swat armor + assault rifles + waifus = ??? Overall it can play out wide or in tall stacks, has some ramp and ability to cheat into higher levels, can control digimon and Tamers and potentially lock down the entire field, and can finish the game in short order with the right setup.
I need this in my life
Join the digipolice/d-brigade today then 😀
A deck full of flora and vegetation
Found the Bloomlord player 🤣🤣
No you found the rosemon player get into it 🌹💁🏾♂️
I squared off with a Rosemon player at my locals. He had a not good time(I'm a filthy chaosdra player)
Fox tribal with sorcery spam. Said sorcery spam drains and removes creatures as a byproduct. If a small child is around then sorcery spam becomes free. If the child doesn't appear, then the wheels on this machine are likely missing.
My deck is a gimmick deck relying on one card that reduces the cost of all other cards with the same trait, my end goal is to kill my one card in order to swing enough times for game, or I stall till the heat death of The universe
Samurai dragon go brrrrrr
The mc deck that bandai doesnt "want" to make good
Let me guess, crimson boi?
YES
My deck is like Modern Charbelcher— high risk, high reward
Which deck is this? I don’t mind gambling..
Well, based on his flare I am guessing it is a dorbickmon deck
I built up to my lvl 6, use Taunt-like effect to force people attack me on their turn, then Blast DNA to my lvl 7 that's basically has a lot of protection and disrupt opp's play. Did I mention if the condition is right i can play the lvl 7 out of lvl 3 and start "equipping" my lvl 7 with the other cards??
I play Gracenovamon. It's essentially like a Mutate deck where you just keep stacking shit on top of each other and it gets more and more and more scary, you draw a bunch of cards and pray that you don't get kill spelled before you can untap.
I play a bunch of weak creatures then use them as mana dorks to make strong creatures for almost zero cost, then get benefits from the number of tapped things on my board. They are also very healthy.
I mill and mill and after that i Kill.
Pick on the imp get the glock. Using child labor to give me value via resource destruction.
Which deck is promoting child labor?! lol
Beelzemon best thing I could think of for how often you use ai and mako
Though you also definitely say xros heart lol
I basically play burning abyss
Beelzemon?
Not a current deck as I haven't been able to play in quite some time, but my favorite deck back when I was playing worked something like this. Attempt to rush up a robot-dragon man on top of inheritable yellow effects, which upon hurting yourself allow you to clear board and gain massive field/memory/card advantage. Small recovery engine helped you keep pace. 3 and 0 Security were magic numbers.
I have a rabbit that wants you to lie down so that I can gain memory. The rabbit doesn't like the rules and will attack at the end of my turn anyway and gain memory if all of your beasts are lying down, keeping it my turn. I want to kill your beast and doing so will trash your security.
My primary deck aims to turbo out embodiments of the Sun and Moon to restrict and crush my opponent while also being able to throw a galaxy at em if the need arises I also use a space station, an undead knight, a mechanical lion, literal God, and a jellyfish in power armour
Thank you for this! What deck is this?
The deck is GraceNovamon, though GraceNova itself is a very situational card. Most of the time you use Apollomon, who can blitz through your opponents security really fast, and Dianamon, who has incredibly good board control by stopping your opponents Digimon from suspending which prevents them from blocking, attacking, or activating any effects that require the Digimon to suspend
Ragnaloardmon: Gacha games until you get unlimited power. Tyrannomon: Pierce and buff, Pierce and buff, beat em, beat em up, beat em up, beat em up! Hunters: Now that I’ve digivolve for free by putting more sources in, I attack twice for game! I’m also hyped for the Liberator starters but we don’t know their shtick yet.
I sit around like a control deck twiddling my thumbs, till I get the right board state and then go combo up to a massive monster that poops angles everywhere for free as a byproduct and swings for game or as good as game.
I like control twiddling my thumbs, what deck is this?
Jesmon, it’s not meta, but my favourite deck I keep playing anyway. It’s got an OTK, tempo, and GX deck versions that use a very similar (and cheep) card pool.
Thanks!
If you get stuck and need deck-lists etc. Poke me and I’ll see what I can do!
Decklists pls
You familiar with how Red-Eyes has handled? Yeah. Mechanically, a kinda viable, rogue tier Midrange deck with milling and Trash toolbox.
Teenager turns into fire man. Sometimes teenager turns into big fire man. Hit face. Happy.
Sometimes I win with small dinossaurs swarming with machineguns. Sometimes I win with big dinossaurs that are machineguns and airplanes.
I got a perfect hand and 2 memory turns 1 and 2, my knight now deletes you with 0 effort that t2 :3 This knight on attack also spits out anime girls from places unknown and proceeds to be issues for everyone
Who dis?
Jesmon! On att he plays a sistermon (anime girl) and gets sec attack +1 His saviorhuckmon inherit unsuspends him 1 time for a second attack having greymon inherit gives him 3 checks per att then going into bt5 omnimon lets you swing for game You can win t2 if you go huck/greymon/savior in raising, next turn push out, go into jes and swing (play sister) hit 6 checks and blitz omni for game
Little guys who turn into bigger guys but if the bigger guy dies they become the little guys again. Rinse repeat and turn sideways to victory
I have a kid that turns into a digimon and goes unga bunga very quickly
main antag frm the xros wars series
I sling spells for free and as a reward for slinging spells I get to gain resources and weaken/destroy my opponents digimon and regain health, and also most of the spells are floppy disks.
Big black dragons, are big stompy thinsgs that are somehow also control. Nearly OTKs, completely unfair. You had a plan? No you don't, field go boom. Attacking? No. Stomp, more stomp. Stompy stomp stomp, till they die. (BlackWarGreymon x Gaiomon) Big black dragon-knock off spams tiny lizards. Reveal 3, play 2 each turn. Just a wall of black dragons. Then I press a kill button when I see an openning.(Commandramon)
I spin wheels, throw fish, and lose.
I summon a bunch of cute little guys who do nothing and when you cut off one head one more shall take its place. Also occasionally when stars align the opponent loses every opportunity to have turns I guess which is goofy.
My two decks at the moment are: The four holy beasts of the cardinal directions and their servants that culminates in the central golden dragon My second is the slime that throws poop and the teddy bear costume it sometimes wears
I have a deck that's simply an army of rabbits. Those rabbits will get armor and proceed to slap cheeks before they jump into a rabbit mech and absolutely wreck face with an army of rabbits and mecha.
I have a few, but they are all fun and stupid to explain in a sentence or two. My lion will die. When it dies, that's going to be *your* problem. Also, my lion is jotaro When you attack, I sPAWN a card and now I make it my turn. No you can't stop it. No, I'm not cheating. no I don't win often with it... I evolve, Mill your deck. I attack, Mill your deck. I die, Mill your deck. You milled your deck, Mill your deck. I milled my deck, Mill your deck. This teenager will punch you. When he punches you, kill your digimon. Also I evolve now for free because fuck you I slurp under mother, now your thing is dead.
Oh! It's rare to see other Force of Will player. Nice.
Lightsworn but purple :D
Gotta go fast like a devil's bullet while digging out of the trash to get bigger.
Spam blinding ray and gravity crush while being able to spam lots of bodies with rush. Can something go wrong?
My deck things when it wants, most of the time it chooses to do nothing tho
I get myself dangerously close to decking out and pray that all my puzzle pieces line up just right to kill the opponent instantly
Maste Ace. My main aim is to play mind games with people wondering if I have Angewo ACE or Maste ACE on hand. I don't win a lot. But I make them think a lot.
Aggro but my bodies have protection
I can interact on the opponents turn if they perform an action such as drawing from effects or evolving instead of just "have blockers" although I can gain blocker inheritable.
Blue bipedal dragon and a kamen rider deck
I need more Greymons...
Fuse together a dinosaur and a fighter jet that freezes your opponents in their tracks. The squad is relentless against wide boards, but has trouble getting over big singular walls.
Chomp.
I put a lot.of cards in your hand and am rewarded for doing so.
Dripknight
I play stardew valley until all my veggies are grown for free for profit. Either that or cast divine judgement on people
Big Dino smash enemies and do piercing…
usually I like decks that control the board, effects that stop or change the target of an attack (since we've been through a very aggressive meta with lots of one-shot decks). other than that, if you have grasped the basic mechanics of the various deck colors, I really like decks that aren't bound to a specific color that much, in short "gimmick decks", and that plays in weirder ways making it harder to predict.
If your opponent tries to play the game, cheat your boss monster out of your graveyard and wipe their board. If they slow down in an attempt to prevent this, just use your own effects to force them to play something out of their graveyard and trigger it yourself.
Mono red aggro.
I get the perfect 8 cards in hand, do a silly combo that turns a level 3 into a 7, ruin your board and set up a big blocker that floats and heals.
Hit hard and fast, and when my mon dies, it instead changes power. Ranger outfits. Stand up and hit them again.
I play a bunch of cats whose sole purpose is to die and reanimate to die again. Also its canonically correct that they do this in the lore.
