So yeah, I really seem to like the gladiator beast archtype. But I feel like my deck needs to become better. The basic strategy of the deck I am trying to do is to summon laquari and 2 other glads, then summon my heraklinos a 3000 atk monster that can negate the enemies spells and traps. And then destroy my enemy using strong monsters without worrying about his spells and traps.


If needed to I can also change my strategy to summon Bestiari (or Prisma with Bestiari) and 1 more Gladiator beast. Then fuse them to summon Gyzarus to destroy 2 cards my opponent has on the field, return him to the deck summon 2 more glads and repeat the process (I dont usually like using prisma for this case since it sends bestiari to the grave, so Indomitable Gladiator Beast and Gladiator Beast Darius are very good for that situation).

So lets get to the deck. I havent made a side deck yet since the most times I am testing it is in Single duels outside of DA.

I'm going to give you some fixes for the Test Tiger build.

No Hoplomus or Spartacus. They're just bad.

Gaiodiaz in Extra is bad. Replace him with another Essedarii

Throw in two Equeste. You'll need those for the new format. They're good

Chuck that Dark Bribe for another War Chariot. Trust me, you want Triple Chariot.

Secutor is only good if you have Waboku. Throw him in Side or don't use him at all. Defensive Tactics is also bad.

The Colosseum is an okay card. If you really want it, throw Triple in Extra. Otherwise, none.

Murmillo is a good side card.

Triple Test Tiger is the way to go

Double Lanista. Trust me, you'll want him.

Get rid of the Equip Spell

No Torrential. Glad's in Grave is bad. Don't cause it yourself.

Double Mirror Force.

Book of Moon to side.

Where is your Triple Shrink? o.o

Don't use that Tag Team Trap.

Safe Zone is not really a Gladiator Beast card. Try two in side deck though.

You need another Lance.

Double Effect Veiler. Always.

You'll want at least one A HERO Lives. Maybe two.

Starlight Road for main. And Stardust Dragon in Extra. It'll save your skin.

Only ONE Heraklinos. Two at Max.

Add a Third Gyzarus.

Don't use XYZ Monsters that need three materials. If you have Three Gladiator Beasts out, you're going for Heraklinos.

Throw Diamond Dire Wolf and Sky Pegasus in the Extra Deck.

You should also have a Leviair and a Zenmaines in there. Test Tiger's effect isn't the only good thing about it.

That's about it for now.

Thanks for your help Naito, I did do some of the stuff that you told me. But I didn't do everything word by word. You did give me some good ideas for the deck so thanks. I will still like some more help by some other people too :D

Oh, forgot to mention.

Choose either triple Shrink or triple Lance. Don't have both in the deck.

I haven't made a side deck for this format as I haven't been playing much. Hope this gives you some ideas and helps. Smile

Edit, Counted the numbers wrong.
