Custom Deckbuilder Format Tips

Hello Guys,

Returning player here. A few friends and I are playing a private custom fun format. Each picked an old structure deck and play against each other. After each game both players are allowed to put 1 new card from the whole pool into the deck, with the following rules:

  • cards can be added to the extra deck as well
  • no card from the current ban list
  • no card that already is in the deck (so no duplicates)
  • additionally, you can remove 1 from your deck card as well (basically switch 1 card from your deck with pool to stay at 40/41/42… cards)

And I dont want to play just „good stuff“, id like to play a deck with a bunch of „small loops“. What I mean is a small, simple loop that makes me go +1 each turn, with a little bit of set up. Something like:

1. Normal Summon Monster A

2. On summon effect reborns Monster B

3. Monster B on summon effect destroys S/T

4. Link/Synchro into Monster C

5. Monster C adds monster A back to hand

 

So if there are any like these I would plan to play those engines in my deck so add those cards 1 by 1 after each round. What options do I have?

Important to note again is that I wont be allowed to play multiple copies and the format is a little bit slow so a simple setup is fine + the Loop should be tcg legal as the current ban list is applied.

 

Thank you in advance!

I see the vision of the small loop, but currently nothing is surfacing in my mind. 

instead, I can recommend Lady Labrynth of the Silver Castle to help you find your valuable traps. It can summon itself if you've activated a trap, and once it is on the field if anyone activates a trap it can search your deck for a trap, easily letting you go +1
