Time for the new kid on the block! If you are looking for a deck thats relatively cheap to build, here you go. Phantom Thief Draco is a new deck that revolves around making your opponent spells that they cast become 'Magical Treasure'! 'Magical Treasure' is a card that is placed face down in the spell area. Thus the only way to destroy them is cards with effects that targets cards only. This is an extremely complex deck to build as there are many ways to go around building it, moreover magic world has access to a plethora of spells that you can play highlander style (1 copy) so that your Holy Magic will become better.
The Analysis
The main monster of the deck, Phantom Thief Harry. For 1 gauge you can look at the top 4 cards of your opponent's deck and send 2 to 'Magical Treasure' and the remaining 2 to the bottom of their deck, this is a strong skill as you can take away key cards from your opponent.
Sky Castle! It is the first ever card printed spell in Buddyfight that can be played as a Buddy! As long as this card is your buddy, whenever your opponent cast a spell it is placed in their spell area as a 'Magical Treasure'. On your turn when you cast this card you will put the top 4 cards of your opponent's deck into 'Magical Treasure'! A great effect that sets up your future spells as well as pseudo mills your opponent's deck. With this card and Harry, you can mill 4+2+2 =8 cards! Thats big number thus this deck is touted as the control killer.
The reason why you can play highlander style cards is because of this card, Holy Magic! Taking into consideration when you build your deck this is the main reason why you can win and cycle through your deck at an amazing speed.
Identifying Win Conditions
1. Impact
By stacking up multiple 'Magical Treasure' on board what do you do? Impact for tons of damage!!
2. Beatdown
This item gives all your Phantom Thief 'Shadow Dive' if your opponent has 6 'Magical Treasure', with this you can just bypass even Athora and go face for the win!!
3. Deckout
By using Skycastle and Phantom Thief Harry, you can deck your opponent out relatively quickly if they cannot kill you fast enough. Moreover with how many spells currently in the game that gives outrageous amounts of advantages like 'Super Hero Time', 'Kosher' and 'Nice One' effects the opponent themselves are helping you by milling themselves at a quicker pace.
4. Lost World
The tried and true method of winning for the past year. What Phantom Thief lacks is a fast way to kill the opponent, and that is what Lost World gives them, an unstoppable offence.
Why you should play this deck
If you like being a control player that kills other control decks and punish the opponent for their misplays, this is the deck for you! There are many ways to build this deck and even then, each build varies on the current meta in your locals. Do you go all in on the Impact or go with a safer route of Lost World? This deck will only get stronger when Ultimate Garga hit stores on 28th February, so keep this deck close with you!
