Agents Build

I'm fucking around with a build of Agents and its probably gonna end up being my main build. I've been running it online and once it's done I'll start running it locally. It's not anything amazing but it wins and I like the control it offers me.

I decided to go for a more control oriented build. A lot of Agent decks I've seen tend to try and run an aggro or spam strategy, and after many builds of attempting that I've decided to go heavily stun-oriented.

Now, I know it's not exactly the most "pro" thing in the world to not run a full 15 Extra Deck, but honestly, it's not worth it. I rarely ever use the Extra Deck in this build anyway. The Extra Deck for this exists purely just to use it when I can.

As for the deck itself, it includes some weird choices. Lightray Daedalus is helpful in a lot of ways because of the combo possibilities it has with Hyperion and Kristya, as well as the Icarus Attack it pulls with Sanctuary in the Sky. It allows for a free summon of a boss monster, and even though you're blowing up a Sanctuary, it doesn't hurt because you run 3 and 2 methods of searching it out. With all said and done, 12.5% of the deck is dedicated to getting Sanctuary of the Sky on the field, which is also why I run double Divine Punishment.

I know that the OCG players don't run it, but I really don't care all that much. Because the deck is so reliant on having Sanctuary out on the field, having the two Divines helps lock out he opponent because it negates almost everything in the deck from attempting to go off.

Valhalla is there not for the beat stick method, but because I find that I draw into it, Venus, and Earth way more often than you'd think that I would. It allows me to get out my Gachis and then normal Earth to either get another Venus or to get Hyperion should I be lucky enough to get Sanctuary on that same turn as well. Then, with those on the field, I can synch directly into Catastor. If I also drew a Herald of Orange Light, then I could run it and the Extra Shine Ball directly into Mist Wurm. I would spend the money on a Mist Wurm but I get that card out very, very rarely and it's not worth the $15 for a card that's a giant pulsating "Maybe".

Valhalla is also there for getting Hyperion out on the field, as well as dropping Kristya if all else fails.

All the tech spells are just there to be tech spells. Smashing Ground is either a bait for a Void Ogre or Shi-En and if not it destroys a card on the field, quite possibly their ONLY monster.

Those are my Agents in a nutshell.

Dimensional Alchemist is a fucking stupid card.
