Everyone remembers the puzzles from the YGO video games.
Well, I ran into one in one of my duels, I personally couldn't solve it due to how new I am to Mermails and I lost.

My field: nothing
My Graveyard: Mermail Abysspike, Mermail Abyssturge
My Hand: Mermail Abyssteus, Atlantean Heavy-Infantry, Genex Controller, Mermail Abysspike, Genex Undine.

Opponent's Field: Master of Blades (2 Materials, 1 of which is Tidal), Leo.
Opponent's Graveyard: DDR, Mermail Abysslinde, MST, Genex Controller.

I have controller/gunde/marksman/etc in deck.

Is there a way you can counter his field with that hand? I couldn't find one that wouldn't cause me to lose to Tidal + whichever monster I didn't take out.

I got nothing right now since the best thing I could think to do is BRD nuke the field and then get a defense set, but I can't come up with anything that doesn't need more than 1 normal summon right now.

That is a mean as fuck field though.

Your best bet is to make your own Leo and run over Blades, but like you said, his Tidal is live, so Leos will crash and Tidal attacks for game.

I see the leo, but im wondering if you have fishborg archer decked....thats about the only option that could open up more plays. Every loop you set off that gets you to a field (like a potential bahamut trite field) ends off short of killing leo, or triggering 74 and getting you owned.

I do not. Even if I did however I don't think it would result in any play that saves me.

I am left to assume that there really isn't a way out.
