Right now trying to decide on whether going to build a full blown version of this deck or making a transformative side for my other monarch decks.
First the full deck:
Right now trying to figure how to get Mega Caius mained. The only thought I can think of @ the moment, is dropping the First Monarch from this. Yeah it reduces the # of targets for Grudge, but the other 6 I have in this already are worth it.
Might drop the pair of Fiends Sanctuary, and run 2 copies of Mausoleum of the Emperor. IMO it seems to be a better card in the long run, may cut soul exchange down to 2 copies to get a third copy of the field into this.
Also thinking of dropping Vanity's Fiend in favor or Kristya. A lot of BA players have started drooling over the thought of using Mega Caius in their decks. I don't want to give them the satisfaction of knocking out all my Vanity's Fiend from this. Kristya has the same effect, just on a bigger, fairy, light attribute body. Other plus sides is Kristya provides more light tribute fodder for Mega Zaborg, and another in hand target for Grudge. Down side it takes away from the dark Tribute fodder for Mega Caius, and Kristya can't be searched by Return.
Upstart/Card Car D will probably be cut in favor of 3 Grudge of the Monarchs. This deck still requires the ability to dig what for I need, so I will keep PoD. Cardcar D uses up my normal for a turn and those are important to this deck. You also can't set anything else the turn you use its effect....
I have 2 other monarch decks, I decided to create a transformative side for my Ghostrick version of the decks first (I will add my Frognarch deck later):
Trying out the Tribute stun transformative side in this deck.
Figure when I side: I pull the 3 Bribes for the Royal Decree, the other 3 traps can be pulled for either fiend. Same can be done with the 3 current Mega Monarchs and the fiend's. Was thinking about pulling The Seal of Orichalcos for a Mega Zaborg, but this deck will need its extra when I can access it. So might leave Mega Zaborg out of this version. (Still haven't decided though).
For updates to the main deck, I figure on replacing the 2 normal Raiza with 2 Mega Caius and 2 Pod + Allure for 3 copies of Grudge of the Monarch. The way this deck thins itself, I figure the spell is a much better option. Get my march/stormforth/escalation/return into hand asap. This way I don't have to waste my special summons for a turn digging with PoD.
