Curse of Purgatory Jack

Hey Buddyfighters, Its been a while since our last article and so today we decided to do about an interesting new deck that was born from the all new Climax booster. The deck revolves around the card Purgatory Knights, Jackknife Dragon.

card

Purgatory Jack's effect fits the theme of the Purgatory Knights where you get to destroy one monster on your opponent's field each turn by destroying one of your own monsters. By controlling your opponent's field as well as gaining advantage from cards that you destroy will prove this deck's worth as a worthy contender in the Meta. The main star of this deck is Purgatory Jack and your main focus should be to get him out on your first turn so that you can start controlling the board with his effect. There are a few cards that complement Jack as well. Firstly we have the infamous Inferno Armour Dragon.

card

This card was one of the most feared card back then as it was able to clear two monsters and give you massive advantage. How this card works in this deck is you call him first and get a free destruction using his on call ability. Then you place Jack on top of him and you gain three souls in total. Jack's ability says that you have to destroy a monster on the field. Which means you can destroy Jack himself and use his soul guard to remain on the field while you destroy your opponent's card.

The next card you run is the base form of jack.

Jackknife Dragon

A staple in most Jack Knife decks as it can tutor for any Jack Knife monster you need. It allows your first turn Purgatory Jack plays to be pulled off consistently. If you have this and a Purgatory Jack in your hand, you can use the base Jack's ability to call out Jack Knife Burn Energy which gives you two free gauge and one more soul for Purgatory Jack.

Bloody Chainsaw Dragon

A card that many did not even know existed. Bloody Chainsaw Dragon complements Purgatory Jack's ability very well as you get a free draw when you destroy it. Unlike the Purgatory Knights from Darkness Dragon world, Bloody Chainsaw has two criticals which helps you deal more damage. Combine this with the Drago-Bond spell and you will be gaining two life while drawing one and also have him remain on the field to activate Jack's ability during your opponent's turn.

The defensive spells we play are you basic eight shields from Dragon world(Blue and Green) and Jackknife History which is a Dragoenergy exclusive for jackknife. It gives you additional 4000 power instead of the usual 3000. Its also has a secondary ability where you can put this card into the soul of a Jackknife monster. This allows you to use Jacks destruction ability one more time.

Jackknife History

One of the most powerful card in the deck is Double loss.

Double Loss

The way this card works allows you to cast it after you have resolved Jackknife's ability. So you get to destroy one of your own card and then destroy your opponent's monster and then cast this card immediately. By doing so you are able to clear the entire board forcing your opponent to end his turn of do a single attack with his weapon. This combo is especially deadly against the well know Meta decks that utilize alot of size 3 monsters with souls.

For the weapons we play Fifth Omni Dragon Fist, Roaring Fire.

Fifth Omni Dragon Fist, Roaring Flame

Jackknife has an amazing 6000 def and this card boosts it to 7000 which is the magic number in the meta for most decks. The weapon of choice is really upto what the player prefers. Roaring Fire is a great card if you cant decide on what to play.

To wrap up this article, these are some other cards that you can consider to add in to your deck

Mera Blade Dragon   Flarefang Dragon   Jackknife,

The two SD cards makes sure that you have a steady flow of gauge and hand cards so that you can constantly put pressure on the board with Jack. The Jackknife Drum is a very good finisher for the deck. Once your Purgatory Jack runs out of soul you can simply put this card on top of him and push for game. By the time you call this card, your opponent should have lost alot of field presence and hand advantage due to Purgatory Jack.


That will be the end of this article. We hope you found this to be interesting compared to other Meta decks, This is a very budget friendly deck as most of the foil cards are only double rares.
