Revolt allows you to Link Summon on your opponent's turn using your banished tri-type monsters, which is ridiculous. Only one Tri-Brigade spell/trap is absolutely essential to the strategy, however, and it is what you will search off Bearbrumm almost all the time: Tri-Brigade Revolt. We haven't yet mentioned any Tri-Brigade spell/trap cards - most of them are not worth playing, though some players choose to run Tri-Brigade Oath as a spell/trap negate. However, this effect locks you into summoning only Tri-Brigades for the rest of the turn, so be sure to summon your generic disruptions before this. Even if this effect is useful at times, Bearbrumm is mostly used for its Graveyard effect which searches any Tri-Brigade spell/trap card. Near the end of your combo, you're going to want to summon Tri-Brigade Bearbrumm the Rampant Rampager, who can Special Summon a banished Tri-Brigade monster - although you'll need to discard two cards to do so. Along the way you can Link summon powerful Turn One pieces, such as Apollousa, Bow of the Goddess, and you can cheat out Link monsters like Ancient Warriors Oath - Double Dragon Lords.

Your Tri-Brigade combo line is going to rely on continuously summoning Tri-Brigade Link monsters and sending them to the Graveyard for the summons of other Links to activate their Graveyard effects. You have a number of options for this search, and it's all going to depend on your personal playstyle and your starting hand - you could grab a Fraktall for Turn Three follow-up, or you could get a hand trap to disrupt your opponent's plays, such as Tri-Brigade Mercourier or D.D. More notably, when Shuraig is sent to the Graveyard, it can search any tri-type whose level is less than or equal to the number of your banished tri-types (which by this point will be quite a high number). On summon, Shuraig can banish one card on the field - this won't be relevant on Turn One but is a very powerful form of disruption if we can Special Summon Shuraig on the opponent's turn, but more on that later. So, if you Special Summon a Tri-Brigade monster with Ferrijit's fist effect, you should at this point have enough tri-types in Grave to use the summoned monster's effect, banishing four tri-types from Grave to Special Summon Tri-Brigade Shuraig the Ominous Omen. Moreover, similarly to the main deck Tri-Brigades, each of their Link monsters has an effect when it's sent to Grave that provides some form of card advantage: Ferrijit allows you to draw a card and then place a card from your hand back to the bottom of the deck.Īnother advantage of Link summoning in this deck is that it further fills up your Graveyard with tri-types. Her effect allows you to Special Summon any tri-type monster from your hand for some much-needed extension.

Once you manage to get two bodies on board, you're probably going to want to Link summon Tri-Brigade Ferrijit the Barren Blossom. Another way to get your two monsters on field is through Rescue Cat, an excellent Normal Summon that gives you almost any two Tri-Brigades on the field instantly. If you searched Kerass, following the combo above, then this shouldn't be a problem. Your first goal on Turn One should be to fill your Graveyard for Tri-Brigade effects, as well as to get two tri-type monsters on the field to facilitate Link plays. Our main deck plays above allowed us to get off to a good start, but it is using the Extra Deck wisely that allows the Tri-Brigade combos to truly take off. So for example, activating Kerass' effect on field, banishing Kitt and Nervall in Grave, will allow you to Special Summon any tri-type Link-two monster. But why are we spending all these resources filling up the Graveyard?Īs well as having their Graveyard effects, all the main deck Tri-Brigade monsters share a common effect: they can banish tri-types from the Graveyard to Special Summon tri-type Link monsters from the Extra Deck. So, from one card you've managed to get three Tri-Brigades in Grave, and you've also added Kerass to hand. Usually, Nervall will search for Tri-Brigade Kerass, since Kerass is the only Tri-Brigade who can Special Summon himself from the hand, providing you with a vital extender for your later Link plays. Most often, you'll want to send Tri-Brigade Nervall this time - when it hits the Graveyard it'll activate, allowing you to add a Tri-Brigade monster from deck to hand. Fraktall will usually send Tri-Brigade Kitt, whose effect will trigger when it's sent to Grave, to send another Tri-Brigade card from your deck to the Graveyard.
