How To Play

Welcome to my P.U.N.K Gold Pride Deck Profile for 2023! “P.U.N.K.” is an archetype that focuses on generating advantageous effects through the cost of 600 LP through quick effects ranging from fusion summons and obtaining Trap/Spell cards from the deck. “Gold Pride” allows the user to Special Summon monsters from the Main Deck and hand if your LP is lower than your opponents. These monsters can use their effects on your opponent’s turn to synchro, fusion, and control the field through their incredible mechanical play.

You can see why both of these decks would work in congruence, as one takes away LP to provide continuous momentum, and the other makes way for the use of cards that need your LP low anyway. While this deck list provides several ways to get to a reasonable board (and once you’re used to the combos, you can generate boards based on your opponent’s deck), I’ll be teaching you the main combo board that you can practice to get started using this fantastic deck!

Noh-P.U.N.K. Ze Amin is the main card you’ll want to see first in your hand. If you don’t have it, utilize either Noh-P.U.N.K. Foxy Tune or Emergency Teleport to Special Summon it or add it to your hand.

1. NS or SS Noh-P.U.N.K. Ze Amin, activate the effect, add Noh-P.U.N.K. Foxy Tune, activate their effect, SS Ukiyoe-P.U.N.K. Sharakusai.
2. Ukiyoe-P.U.N.K. Sharakusai effect, Fusion Summon Ukiyoe-P.U.N.K. Rising Carp, activate Carp’s effect SS Noh-P.U.N.K. Deer Note and Gagaku-P.U.N.K. Wa Gon.
3. Activate Wa Gon’s effect, add P.U.N.K. JAM Extreme Session to hand, activate the Field Spell, then Synchro both Wa Gon and Deer Note into P.U.N.K. JAM Dragon Drive
4. Jam Dragon’s effect, add Joruri-P.U.N.K. Madame Spider to hand (or Psychic Tracker if Madam’s already in hand), draw by JAM Extreme, then Deer Note to SS either Lvl8s being Foxy Tune or Rising Carp from the GY to the field. If it’s Turn 0, go into Number 38: Hope Harbinger Dragon Titanic Galaxy or Number 90: Galaxy-Eyes Photon Lord (Number 38 preferably unless you know what they’re playing), and if its Turn 2, go into Number 97: Draglubion for a Number 100: Numeron Dragon OTK.
5. Next, NS or SS Madame Spider, activate its effect to add Joruri-P.U.N.K. Dangerous Gabu. (This is the end line for your P.U.N.K.s)
6. Because you have Madame Spider on your field, we’re going to XYZ a Rank 3 monster, depending on your hand, either SS Psychic Tracker or activate P.U.N.K. JAM Extreme Session to SS an Lvl3 “P.U.N.K” from your hand. You can also NS Ash Blossom or Ghost Ogre if need be. XYZ into Gold Pride – Chariot Carrie then activate it’s effect, add Gold Pride – Better Luck Next Time! then send either Gold Pride – Captain Carrie or Gold Pride – Nytro Head depending on your current hand (Nytro Head preferred but dependent on your playstyle).
7. Activate Gold Pride – Better Luck Next Time! and add Gold Pride – Leon to the hand. If already in hand, add Gold Pride – Roller Baller or Gold Pride – Captain Carrie. SS Leon, then SS Gold Pride – Captain Carrie (for Gold Pride – Start Your Engines!) or Gold Pride – Nytro Head (for enemy field presence and counter Evenly Matched via a token).
8. Last but not least, set all your Traps face-down, don’t forget that all your monsters should be in Defense to counter Lightning Storm, and you should have a few hand traps from your excessive draws from Gold Pride – Better Luck Next Time! and P.U.N.K. JAM Extreme Session to counter your opponent thoroughly.

Now for some additional info to help in your decision-making during the enemy turn.

Additional Deck info

Gold Pride – Leon states that you must use “Gold Pride” monsters for your Synchro, but not that it has to be a synchro in that archetype. If you decided to go for Carrie instead of Roller Baller, you can synchro summon Naturia Barkion, chaining at the end of the Main Phase to counter their incoming Evenly Matched.

Gold Pride – Star Leon and Gold Pride – Pin Baller are going to be your best friends during your enemy’s turn. The preference leans more to Pin Baller as it doesn’t target and, its effects cant be negated if your LP is lower than your opponent’s.

If you have enough bodies or materials, Psychic End Punisher is a great card to end on your opponent’s turn with if Leon is still on the field. Remember to utilize P.U.N.K. JAM Dragon Drive so you can have that extra Lvl8 on the field for a quick synchro into Punisher.

And that’s pretty much it. Remember, the more you play the easier it’ll become to make combos and you’ll figure out advanced lines. Hope you enjoy!
