Totally random thought process started this idea. Wanted to build a deck that could use RUM Astral Force. Got to looking at some Xyz that shared a type to begin with, noticed that Googly-Eyes and Gustav Max were both Earth types and in the proper ranks of 8 and 10, respectively. This got me to thinking about what makes Googly the easiest, and the Super Defense Robots were the first to jump up. Helps when they were made to specifically do it.
Next was "how can I flush this out?" Answer- Machinas. So now Iron Call seemed like a no brainer, moved on to some other spells and traps then. Now as I got to looking at it, I realized I needed more ways to get Rank 3 monsters, in went TGUs and Crane Cranes. I eventually dropped a couple of the Cranes, but kept TGUs since I added #49 to the extra. That cycling is too good.
Now I needed to work on the extra. Already had #49, Googly and Gustav. I went for my favorite choice for an Astral play- Grenosaurus to Volcasaurus. Next up Found Angineer to Tiras, and Alucard to Bram. Rank 4s next; Gagaga Cowbot to Gaunlet Launcher seemed to good to pass on for field wipes or a potential 3200 damage (800 burn then 2400 direct attack after clearing monsters). Chose Photon Papilloperative over other options like #39 to go into Strike Bounzer and then realized Divine Dragon Knight Felgrand is just another step up from there and Astral Force can come back to me so why not try for it.
After all that, this is what I ended with-
This is obviously not meant for anything but casual play. Haven't had a chance to try it yet either, but any thoughts on it would be nice to see.
