Because of the event, a lot of cards were limited/banned, and because the event had an extremely old format, this deck became stronger (because the meta cooked everything).
Sections covered in this guide:
Swordsoul
Swordsoul of Mo Ye (x3)
Good starter of the deck, able to show a Swordsoul or Wyrm monster to the enemy and spawn a Level 4 Tuner token and start the combo
When going to the grave as a synchro material, it will draw 1 card from the deck, helping to find handtrap pieces or extend combos.
Swordsoul Strategist Longyuan (x3)
Jump onto the field by throwing 1 Swordsoul or Wyrm monster from your hand to the graveyard, then spawn 1 Level 4 Tuner token
When sent to the grave as a synchro material, it will deal 1200 LP to the enemy.
=> is the material to level up the bosses of Level 10 deck
Swordsoul of Taia (x1)
A bit loose but a super strong killer leaf
Must banish Swordsoul card or Wyrm monster in grave to spawn level 4 Tuner token, however can one card combo with Swordsoul Emergence
If used as synchro material, throw 1 Swordsoul or 1 Wyrm from deck to grave, can throw Tenyi to continue combo
holding in hand + handtrap then brick sml, should only play x1
Incredible Ecclesia the Virtuous (x3)
name without Swordsoul :/
jump yourself if the enemy has more monsters than you, can go turn 2 well, even turn 1 because this event will spawn monsters on the enemy's field (or yours) depending on luck
Has the ability to sacrifice itself to jump a Swordsoul monster from hand or deck, this is a good combo starter card, bait negate on turn 2 is also good
Swordsoul Emergence (x3)
searcher should x3
Search Swordsoul monster, if you have Wyrm Synchro monster, search any Wyrm monster from deck !!! Thanks to that, this card can search Tenyi and perform combo between 2 decks
If you are banished, your level will increase/decrease by 1 level, helping to diversify your gameplay.
Swordsoul Blackout (x1)
1 of your Wyrm monsters and 2 random guys on the field, explode 2 hondai
If banished, it will spawn a Level 4 Tuner token. Combines well with Taia to create body for combo.
Swordsoul Grandmaster - Chixiao (x2)
is a super cool boss of the deck
when synchro will search 1 Swordsoul monster/spell/trap or 1 Wyrm monster (or banish those cards, helping to trigger the effect if any)
Target and negate an effect monster on the field by banishing a Swordsoul or Wyrm monster
Swordsoul Supreme Sovereign - Chengying (x1)
is a super quality punching bag
Increases your ATK/DEF and reduces enemy ATK/DEF by 100 points, corresponding to each banished card of both players. When playing for a long time or the enemy uses a deck specializing in banishment, you can completely destroy their field and OTK extremely easily.
Protect yourself from being destroyed by banishing any 1 card from your grave.
If you have a banished card (either you or your opponent can banish it), you will banish 2 of your opponent's cards, 1 card on the field, 1 card in the grave (the opponent must have both cards in the grave and cards on the field. If only 1 of the 2 conditions is missing, you cannot banish)
Swordsoul Sinister Sovereign - Qixing Longyuan (x1)
opp breathe, burn 1200
When the enemy summons a special monster, banish and burn 1200
activate spell/trap? banish and burn 1200
There's also a very cool effect that allows you to draw 1 every time you synchronise a Wyrm monster. Helps find handtrap pieces to put more pressure on the enemy.
Tenyi
Except for new supports playing the heretical style, Tenyi will jump automatically if you have no effect monsters on the field and activate effects when you have non-effect monsters (token monsters from swordsoul are also non-effect monsters)
Tenyi Spirit - Ashuna (x3)
Self-jumping, able to pull Tenyi's body straight up from the deck to extend combos
Tenyi Spirit - Vishuda (x1-3)
Jump by yourself, can push card to turn 2, good bait negate
Tenyi Spirit - Adhara (x1-3)
Jumps by itself, has the ability to pick up any Wyrm monster from the banish zone to your hand! Can be combined extremely well by banishing Swordsoul and picking it up again to continue the combo!
or pick up the Tenyi monster again
Tenyi Spirit - Suruya (x1-3)
Jumping by yourself is super easy, as long as you have a Wyrm (or a monster without effects)
The good thing about this card is that it has a Level 4 Tuner, so it can combo with Swordsoul if the token spawning effect is blocked (and Swordsoul Emergence searches for this card).
If you go to the grave to use as Synchro material for Wyrm monster, you can jump 1 Link Tenyi monster from Extra Deck, that monster will lose the same amount of Link Rating x1000 (but that monster cannot be used as Link material)
Vessel for the Dragon Cycle (x1)
Sends Wyrm from deck to grave, adds body to combo, good combo with Swordsoul on turn 1 and 2 thanks to token
If you already have a token, you can search for a Tenyi monster from your deck to your hand, as long as that monster has a different name than the monster thrown to the grave.
1 leaf plus 2 resources
Heavenly Dragon Circle (x1)
You can only use 1 of the 2 effects per turn.
if you sacrifice a token (or a monster without effect like tenyi's link 1) then it will jump straight to that monster, but the effect is blocked
+ banish from grave if you have a monster with token (or a monster without effect like tenyi's link 1), can add 1 Tenyi monster/spell/trap from deck to hand
Flawless Perfection of the Tenyi (x0-1)
makes your useless sandbags immune to enemy monster effects (yep, then whoever has high ATK is the boss, unless opp casts spell/trap and you cook)
This card has a super powerful effect that lets you draw 2 when the enemy special summons a face-down monster or a monster with no effect. Helps you find a handtrap or backup card next turn.
Tenyinfinity (x1)
Search for " Vessel for the Dragon Cycle " or " Heavenly Dragon Circle " 2 extremely good cards from Tenyi or spring bait (if you get tricked, make peace)
Can sacrifice Wyrm and shoot 1 monster on the field, bait negate or trade 1 non-effect monster or 1 token monster for 1 negate/enemy boss body
and finally, at the end of your turn you can send this card to the graveyard, place " Flawless Perfection of the tenyi " from your deck or graveyard onto the field to protect it and draw 2 on your next turn
Monk of the Tenyi (x3)
easy to get, just need 1 Tenyi monster not Link monster
Because it is a monster without effects, this monster will help Tenyi activate effects or send Tenyi (body Wyrm) to the grave for Taia to banish and combo.
Shaman of the Tenyi (x1)
Pull Wyrm's body from the grave to easily combo by discarding 1
then locked to only use the special summon effect from Extra Deck is Tenyi monster (if you go turn 1 you can take a risk to combo stronger field) or turn 2 you can still OTK because Chengying increase and decrease ATK/DEF not activated effect
non-effect monster is punched or is punched, nohaihondai 1 enemy card
Berserker of the Tenyi (x0-1)
bro thinks he is Blue-Eyes
Tenyi Spirit - Sahasrara and Draco Masters of the Tenyi (x0-1)
Usually will use Link 4 because the protection effect is too strong and can be pulled easily by Suruya , the other guy has difficulty using effects
Draco Berserker of the Tenyi and Tenyi Spirit - Mula Adhara (x1)
Draco Berserker : opp monster breathes, banishes. Has strong OTK ability because it steals ATKm and punches twice
Mula Adhara : search field, both sandbag and strong OTK
Staple
handtrap & staple
Just keep it up, this deck combos very smoothly (unless it bricks). Trust me bro
Pot of Desires (x1 (due to limit))
draw 2 is so cool, the price of banish 10 cards is so cheap
Chaofeng, Phantom of the Yang Zing, Yazi, Evil of the Yang Zing, Baxia and Brightness of the Yang Zing (Yanqing???)
Baxia : easy to level up, can push cards. Can pull monsters from graves, can also pull Swordsouls to dance with.
Yazi : Level 7, can use Swordsoul Emergence to reduce level and synchronise on this card, can shoot card and pull Wyrm body from Deck and extend combo
Chaofeng : level 9. Can use Swordsoul Emergence to increase Level and Synchronize this card, harder to use than the other two, if you like then bring it.
