YU-GI-OH! *NEW* RIKKA DECK PROFILE! NEW BANLIST 2023! IN-DEPTH!

[@Balila_balbal_loki]

I really running mardel generaider of the boss of light along with aromage laurel. It's because they unbrick bad hands or if you got hand trapped. For example if you made jasmine and used healer to increase your lp more than your opponent and got any 1 monster that's jasmine is pointing to, you can summon mardel and use her to search laurel and then sp laurel and make another jasmine using laurel and mardel then off of laurel healing you, you can search two times so you get mudan and snowdrop so from there you can pretty much make your board. Mardel can search the therion lily for an omni negate to boot.

[@emmanuelsilvaruiz]

The list I was waiting Thanks for sharing

[@squiglythegoon9678]

Honeslty I feel like with Kashtira being big and labrynth becoming really good, lightning storm could be a super crazy option

[@WindUpCarrierZenmaity]

Hey I saw some ocg lists running a small naturia package… have you tried it?

[@sermonking]

I run a pure rikka build. I am running a couple of synchros though in my build. Don't have the room to include the sun stuff.

[@steven6666600000]

Interesting list. I still personally like to run Alsei in the extra in the event zombie world is on board and I can strenna into him and get rid of it or a back row, especially with messenger of peace being ran in some decks. Also a personal choice of mine but I like running 1 Talaya, Princess of Cherry Blossoms since she can protect your board from field wipes that involve destruction. She does count as another brick though which feels just awful to draw into. You could easily side her out for another card though for rounds 2 and 3.

[@matthieumaniere9044]

Love your list ! I personally really like to run one copy of Mardel, as it can easily be summoned either by Jasmine or from hand by Snowdrop, It allows another search and a big body. It can even get you Hyperyton faster so that He can attach a spell more easily !

[@hectormoreno3940]

Any merit trying to include some Therions?

[@dharcofuruk9105]

prioritizing the rikka engine can shut off your ability to summon king, so its a personal choice

[@matthewclark9359]

Great list I had been wanting to play this for a while in paper but never pulled the trigger! You have any feelings on what to put in the side deck? the main deck seems already set against the meta so I'm not sure if there are better going second cards you'd want for the deck.

[@wayne5794]

Fairyant is a fun litte extender that goes into queen of thorn plays for time and links

[@deanoor9391]

I use queen of thorns alongside sweet marjoram so they can't target my plants

[@Blackreapxr]

Good list. I play a similar list and have won my past 4 locals with Rikka. I’m maining evenly over eclipse though there are more branded players than kashtira. What’s the consensus on therion package? With so many board breakers going around I’m considering it but I’m not sure how it changes or main combo lines. Also I mained one cactus bouncer just for lols. I’m probably cutting it but it hasn’t been awful. Maybe trying out rose whip or Naturia vein

[@danieldejesusyanezhernande4675]

Thanksssss

[@deanoor9391]

My build is quite different from yours but it's a cool profile Have you considered one for one, reasoning, or monster gate?

[@abreudavid]

This deck is perfect

[@Vibez93]

why not playing the terion package? 🤔

[@albinalex6435]

Great Deck Profile! Would love to see some test hands

[@Rawortega]

when it drops could you please make a new deck profile and combo guide for the new traptrix stuff?

[@TruePartyKing]

Love the eclipse and Econ techs, work so well with Rikkas! TTTrusting would be busted in this deck! Unexpected Dai is better than Instant fusion was for pre-nerf tears Plus you can search your engine recycler, Pot of Avarice to go full Sunseed combo twice in one game Definitely removing Dancepione from my list, it’s always a 50/50 and probably not worth it unless over half the deck is plants

[@kikutijv]

Nice decklist and explication! if I use Therions which cards should I replace in that same decklist?

[@TopTierGamingYGO]

If u wanna play therion u can also go over 40. I haven't tested that package in over 7 months so I wouldn't really have a good recommendation for substitutes

[@kikutijv]

@@TopTierGamingYGO I see, thanks for the information.

[@midnitemau9722]

Could you tell me what oversleeves you use for your extra deck? Nice deck profile btw.

[@TopTierGamingYGO]

Dragonshield clear

[@matteo8268]

What do u think abt rivalry and tasking?

[@Blackreapxr]

Tasking is busted. Rivalry generally speaking isn’t great but depending on your locals it’s good in the side. Definitely do not main it rn

i must know where you got that playmat from, ik its underworld goddess but i cant find it T_T

[@baneoffools8053]

I haven't fully figured it out yet but the punk engine with diabolantis also seems like it could be a good way to get to combo with this deck, the problem is the extra deck is so tight that you don't really get good payoffs off of it, but I think it's something to be tested further

[@dharcofuruk9105]

so far the best lines is go dia, ss foxy from deer. Dia sends romarin , romarin sends soldrapom, rap ss itself, overlay dia and foxy into sargas, go find lily if you dont have already. ss lily equiping romarin, send romarin add diss. Link romarin and lily into jasmine. Dis search king, ss king using lily, tribute sargas with jasmine to go get lonefire , lonefire tribute jasmine go get loci, go sunavalon plays but this combo loses HARD to nibiru if you dont already have a lily in hand because Sargas is your 5th summon, so if they read the omni coming up they'll use it before you have the chace to get to lily or dis

[@baneoffools8053]

@@dharcofuruk9105 Yea but so does the regular rikka combo but this has the benefit of if you open E tele you still have your normal summon and your entire plant line avaliable to you, the only thing that puts me off from it is the amount of bricks that you have to play in order to make it work

[@perezerick94]

i went undefeated 6-0 in my locals, i was playing 3 nibs main, 3 drnm, 3 impermanence and 3 Evenly and no ash. I would not change anything because this deck is very bad at going second unless u open konkon and a rikka monster, backrow give us too many problems. The deck work just Godly cause with 1 card i do everything. So was the best option running those 9 cards i mention main deck. If u have any doubt u can ask guys 🤗

[@DerTomatoXD]

Would u mind sharing your whole list?

[@spahokix9573]

nib confronts with unexpected dai so i would not main it but boardbreaker do good work

[@dharcofuruk9105]

How many kashtira players are in your locals because DRNM doesnt really stop kashtira. How often did nibiru conflict with unexpected?

[@perezerick94]

@@spahokix9573 of course but if i loose dice there is no way i can beat a deck easily, those cards are in case i loose i loose the dice, i do not allways play for loci, 1 petal is enought or depends what i have, the deck function perfectly because is week going second.

[@perezerick94]

@@dharcofuruk9105 Nib is just a last resource remember if im against a huge board there is no way a beat it with this deck, drnm can help me preventing the xyz of popping and other kashtira banishing, this deck going first has one of the most troublesome boards to deal with so Nib is just a last case depending what im against too. Field is way too good cause can help u clear boards. U can hVe ur build whatever u want to but people fall for it too easy. There is no way i beat a kashtira board with 1 dai or petal so Nib is good

[@abielsun4034]

I think you can get away with playing 1 thrasher and 1 healer if you are playing aromage laurel honestly
