Radiant Typhoon Gameplay Guide

By Mèo Fool Gaming Published Mar 18, 2026 Updated Apr 2, 2026

After more than 36 years, MST has finally been negated and now has an entire origin/class system centered around it. Currently in Master Duel, it's a very strong deck with incredibly annoying minion recovery abilities, as well as a single card that pushes the entire enemy field (monsters or spells/traps). Although it doesn't have "Radiant Typhoon" in its name, it integrates very well with other decks.

Sections covered in this guide:

1/ Radiant Typhoon

2/ Staple

3/ Cumbo

Radiant Typhoon

MST = Mystical Space Typhoon

Small monsters share the following effect: if the enemy has no spells/traps on the field (you play on turn 1 or after clearing all enemy spells/traps), they can automatically jump. Or they will automatically jump from your hand if you have MST in your graveyard.

Magic spells will share the same effect: if this card is destroyed by MST's effect, it will either return itself to the field or search for an MST.

Radiant Typhoon Eldam (x3)

Searcher, 1 card combo from the deck, searches for 1 Radiant Typhoon or MST monster from the deck. Bring 3 to increase deck stability.

Radiant Typhoon Swen (x3)

Starter of the deck, search for the spell/trap Radiant Typhoon or MST from the deck, bring 3 of them to increase stability.

Radiant Typhoon Krosea (x3)

Search 2!

It has the ability to search for monsters/spells/traps like Radiant Typhoon and/or MST , jumps from hand when instant spells are activated, and is a pretty good punching bag on the field. Its body is Winged Beast, so upgrading it to Simorgh will definitely triple its stats.

Radiant Typhoon Meghala (x1)

It has the ability to summon another Radiant Typhoon from your deck onto the field (with a different name than the monsters already on your field) when Radiant Typhoon Instant Spell or MST is activated.

Since this card needs another card to activate its effect, and can also be searched by another card, x1 is sufficient.

Radiant Typhoon Fonix the Great Flame (x1)

He jumped from the hands and into the grave.

Hand: Jump when instant magic is activated.

Graveyard: When MST is activated, this card will automatically jump from the graveyard.

Not only does this card possess an extremely annoying self-jumping ability, but it also has an even more annoying effect: pushing 2 cards back into the deck. Simply activating the spell will push 2 cards from your opponent's deck. It's your turn to push 2, and your opponent's turn to push 2. In total, this subtracts 4 resources from your opponent's field.

Radiant Typhoon Varuroon the Vibrant Vortex (x1)

It also jumps from hand to hand and grave like Fonix

Instead of pushing cards like Fonix , this card negates and destroys monsters.

Mystical Space Typhoon (x3)

classic, respectful

Radiant Typhoon Vision (x3)

Draw 2 cards, then discard 1 Radiant Typhoon or any instant spell. This card can be used to repair bricks or draw 2 cards to find a handtrap after a combo.

Radiant Typhoon Chant (x3)

I found a card combo, so I tripled it to increase the deck's stability.

Radiant Typhoon Ascendance (x1)

Recall your monster by pulling a Level 6 or lower Radiant Typhoon monster from your graveyard to obtain resources for the next turn, or pull a monster from your deck by pulling Meghala.

Radiant Typhoon Mandate (x1)

MST could have been negated!

Once per turn, when MST is activated, you can choose 1 face-up card on your opponent's field, blocking the effect of the card you choose!

And of course, this card in a persistent deck will have a recovery effect, instantly recalling any 3 spell cards from the graveyard (including staples like Called by the Graveyard , as long as those 3 cards include a Radiant Typhoon monster/spell/trap).

After the items are returned, you will get to draw 1.

As for the 300 ATK/DEF boost, I rarely use it; opponents usually surreptit before you even hit them (lmao).

Radiant Typhoon Varuroon the Marine Eidolon (x2)

Easy to get with just 2 Radiant Typhoon monsters.

It has the ability to search MST and place the monster in the spell/trap zone, an extremely annoying effect. Instead of shuffling it back to the deck, sending it to the graveyard, or banishing it (which might still work), placing it in the spell & trap zone is practically a cook, and it also takes up a spell & trap slot.

Additionally, this card has the effect of directly placing a trap card, allowing MST to negate cards from the deck or graveyard onto the field!

Staple

Shiina Twin Tempests of Celestial Thunder (x3)

It doesn't have the words "Radiant Typhoon" on it, but it fits the deck and is incredibly powerful.

If your opponent activates a card or effect and you have a WIND monster, this card can automatically jump from your hand (quick effect means it can jump on both your opponent's and your turn).

Opponent's Monster Summoning: Sends all monsters on the field to your hand (except this card).

Opponent activates spell/trap: Returns all spells/traps on the field to their hand.

This is an extremely annoying disruption; after the opponent's combo is almost complete, it pushes everything back to their hand, hard once-per-turn effects cannot be activated, and if the opponent has already used a normal summon, it's very difficult to continue, especially if the opponent is using extra decks.

Noble Knight's Shield-Bearer (x0-3)

This is an ancient card, but it's still usable today. You can search for your one-card combo simply by banishing it from your hand or field.

Mist Valley Thunderbird and Mist Valley Apex Avian (x0-1)

Negate doesn't happen once per turn; if you have this card, you can summon this card or Mist Valley onto the field repeatedly, which is a real nightmare.

In the past, there were cults who played with Thunderbird ; it's still usable now, but it's much more prone to bricking and spinning.

Number 75: Bamboozling Gossip Shadow and Totem Bird (negate)

2 Level 3 monsters = negate spell/trap or "negate" type 2 spells override monsters.

You can build it at the end of the combo to get Disrupt, or if you have ample resources, build it earlier to block Handtrap, ensuring the combo is easier to execute.

Phantom Fortress Enterblathnir (x2)

Dirty locks and snatching hands will always prevail.

A brain-draining combo, a lifetime of misery.

This card's effect is a soft once-per-turn effect, meaning if you have 2 copies on the field, you can use it twice, or you can remove the card from the field and drag it back to activate it again (as long as you have Xyz materials).

And since this card's effect has no target and is banish, it's extremely annoying.

handtrap & staple

Play whatever you like; this deck allows for one-card combos and also has a draw 2 feature to easily find handtraps, making it very easy to dig up handtrap and staple pieces from the deck.

Forbidden Droplet and Super Polymerization (the Dinh Cong Menh)

Yeah, the trap card restores inventory, it picks up the enemy's spells instantly. If cards that breakboard on turn 2 and are set face down on turn 1 to make things difficult for the enemy keep restoring inventory like this, it's a game for dogs.

Number 49: Fortune Tune, Downerd Magician and Divine Arsenal AA-ZEUS - Sky Thunder (ancient stamping machine)

Xyz monster punch -> Zeus -> detact 2 materials, send all cards (not once per turn). You can add more materials by summoning other cards like Downerd Magician and then summoning Zeus.

Super Starslayer TY-PHON - Sky Crisis (x0-1)

This super staple breakboard is great for dealing with large-bodied monsters, or those that stay on the field for too long and flood the field. You'll control them with spells, traps, and handtraps :)

Simorgh Bird of Sovereignty (The bird was huge, fat, and very feathered.)

The Winged Beast's mercenary boss, super easy to obtain, you only need one Winged Beast ( Radiant Typhoon Krosea ) as materials.

This card protects the target and also pulls a Winged Beast from your hand or Deck onto the field (Level equal to or lower than the number of unused spell/trap slots on the field). Because of this effect, you can pull any monster you want, even the most evil ones. This is also why this card is popular in TCG.

Pot of Extravagance (x1)

draw 2 go brrrrrrrrrrrr

Harpie's Feather Storm (utterly immoral and wicked.)

Give me three of them, this card is very unsightly (and the brick rate is high too).

Hraesvelgr the Desperate Doom Eagle (x1)

Link 3 specializes in dealing with grave robbers.

If the enemy deck has few minions and is full of spells/traps, this card can easily reach 4800 attack power!

Cumbo

Mulcharmy Fuwalos (Super basic combo, accepting 3612018 Fuwalos)

Eldam jumped straight from Krosea's search results.

Krosea search, Chat and MST .

Chat search Swen , Swen automatically jumps to search Ascendance.

Link 2 goes to Marine Eilodon , search for MST , click Ascendance to search for MST , then chain link 2 MST to fire Ascendance.

Marine Eilodon places a trap card on the field, returns draw 1.

Combo completion: 2 negate, draw 1 + 1 (one more draw on the opponent's turn), Ascendance pulls Krosea back from the graveyard, searches for 1 MST and 1 other card to play again on the next turn.

Forbidden Droplet (break da board)

Prioritize using Droplet to send Fonix to the graveyard, then continuously fire instant spells at the Radiant Typhoon using MST . Both MST and the Radiant Typhoon card are once-per-turn in that they automatically flip themselves over from the graveyard after being hit.

This allows Fonix to jump up from the graveyard and continuously push away enemy cards.

Radiant Typhoon's instant spell cards can also search for MST.

This trick is useful if you use MST chain link 2 to instantly cast Radiant Typhoon spell (chain link 1) and then use droplet chain link 3 to instantly cast Radiant Typhoon spell (chain link 1). Something magical will happen; your opponent will be so shocked they'll surrender. Highly recommended in ranked matches 🐧

Radiant Typhoon Swen (Start with Swen)

Swen goes onto the field, searches for Chant , Chant searches for Krosea , then executes the combo as described above.

S:P Little Knight and I:P Masquerena (Hands like shit)

If you don't have the MST , and link 2 is negated when searching for MST , then go to one of these two sites.

At this point, you can consider whether to place the trap card face down or keep it in your hand, because placing it face down without using any effect risks getting shot in the next turn, so it's not advisable. However, if there are 3 instant spells in the graveyard to draw 1, you can place it face down.
