Decklist :

Grabbing the 2 wins out of 3, duelist Alex sealed the 4th position at OCG Community Remote Duel tournament which was held on May 29, 2021.

Dragon may be one of Konami's golden child. This said not without a reason: there is always a support given to the rulers of the space, either directly or indirectly. Unlike other types that have to be an archetype, Dragon doesn't need it to be a deck, especially meta. For example : Dragon Link.

Duelist Alex's builds are a little different in general, you could say a little bit of a monke, as the duelists of YuGiOh! to call a deck that has a lot of Trap Cards. For this deck, it might be a bit suitable because it only takes 1 or 2 cards as a starting combo and explodes to block the opponent. But it is also risky because the cards needed for starting the combo are almost specific.

The use of the Imperial Order itself aims to avoid Dark Ruler No More which is able to destroy the Dragon Link defense structure which is mostly from Monster Cards. That Trap Card is effective for this kind of deckbuild because Spell Cards are only used for the first combo, and after that field control is handed over to Monster Cards such as Hieratic Seal of Heavenly Spheres, Borreload Savage Dragon or Hot Red-Dragon Archfiend Abyss.

Fantastical Dragon Phantazmay may not be a good thing in this April 2021 OCG metagame, but it's interesting enough to be part of the Side Deck. Tri-Brigade is a deck that really needs Link Summon as a combo. Apart from that, there are still Sky Strikers who sometimes become the Dark Horse of a tournament, or to face other fellow Dragon Link players. Phantazmay's advantage is also that because of his Dragon type, he can be summoned with the second effect of the Hieratic Seal of Heavenly Sphere, protecting other Monster Cards from effect that would target other monsters.
