I really want to emphasize on this whole Wangu Anti-Meta Beast deck idea. Augustin Herrera's build in Indianapolis really got my attention. It was a build from the last format, but with just a little tweaks, it can be a devastating competitor for the meta this format too.
First of all, you have King Tiger Wanghu, which is a great against Gadgets, most T.G monsters, Blackwings, Underworlds, and some plants. The problem with Wanghu is that it needs so much protection. Having 3 Horn of the Phantom Beast, 2-3 Forbidden Chalice should do the trick but takes so much of the deck.
Other monsters like Barbaros & Thunder King work great. Barbaros combos great with Horn of the Phantom Beast and also Skill Drain.
Skill Drain is a MUST for this deck. In case your plans fail of keeping Wanghu out on the field, Skill Drain and Barbaros is your back up. Now let's say your strategy of shutting down with Wanghu works. Having 3 Skill Drain in your deck can really be dead draws so that's a risk you gotta take.
Of course Reborn Tengu is needed. Great combo again with Horn of the Phantom Beast and for quicker monster line-up, since decks like these play around only 15-17 monsters.
Other cards you can play with are Thunder King, Doomcaliber Knight, Banisher of the Radiance preferably side decked), Fossil Dyna, & Pitch-Black Warwolf. All these cards are really just basics of a strong anti-meta build. You can make this anti meta to the extreme by playing 3 Fossil Dyna, 3 Thunder King, and 3 Doomcaliber but if you wanna, just make a anti-meta deck. :P
Wanghu can be greatly used, but it all depends on your protection for him. Think of your offense too, always have 3 Burden of the Mighty, (even if it may look like a dead draw) it will probably be quickly MST'ed a couple of times around. I personally want to try out an own build and even might have a deck profile later on.
That's it for today. Until my next post, peace!
