Hey, Kiddos. I have been messing around with a variety of decks recently on the Dueling Network website and have decided to share with you my opinion on some decks that try to enable the Exxodia win condition.
Managing to get five useless cards from the deck to your hand is much harder than it sounds, considering you have to run 35 floaters to get there. There are a variety of decks out there that attempt to accomplish that win condition with different engines but largely it is considered the most practical to have a Exxodia deck that can win on its first turn instead of needing some set up, so that eliminates some variants using cards like Appropriate or Heart of the Underdog.
In my few experiences against Exxodia decks, I found that largely the most consistent variants of a deck built around an inconsistent win condition, were Dragon Draw Exxodia and Dark World Exodia. Dragon Draw uses cards like Super Rejuvenation, Cards of Consonance, Trade-in, Future Fusion, The White Stone of Legend and Blue Eyes White Dragon as fillers. The deck is capable of large card advantage compared to the Dark World Variant but tends to be less consistent in that it can dead draw quite easily due to its high monster count, or not running into the draw card for a particular monster in hand.
The Dark World Ex variant on the other hand tends to be very consistent in being able to get at least through 20 cards on a given turn, but unlike Dragon Draw cannot rack up a whole lot of card advantage necessary for good Magical Mallet or Card Destruction plays. Yet, I prefer the Dark World Variant as I find it less cloggy, offering more outs to potential side deck cards, as well as feeling like you still have a chance if you do get a cloggy hand. Without further ado, here is my personal decklist I came up with after a small amount of testing.
Monsters: 17
5 Exodia pieces
3 Snoww, Unlight of Dark World
3 Grappha, Dragon Lord of Dark World
3 Thunder Dragon
2 Broww, Huntsman of Dark World
1 Blue-Eyes Toon Dragon
Spells: 23
3 One Day of Peace
3 Upstart Goblin
3 Trade-in
3 The Gates of Dark World
3 Dark World Dealings
3 Toon Table of Contents
1 Pot of Duality
1 Card Destruction
1 Allure of Darkness
1 Magical Mallet
1 Pot of Avarice
Side would generally consist of MST's, Heavy Storm, or Dimensional Alchemist if they remove from play an Exxodia Piece.
Yea, it is not gonna win you a YCS. Yea, it is not gonna always be fun to play cause your opponent is a male genitalia. Yea, you will lose mostly to the male genitalias of the world.
But then, it is Exodia and you are gonna Troll when you show them your hand with all five pieces.
