Wassup guys, In this article imma explain X-Sabers my personal favorite deck and imma include every card and some support cards imma also teach ppl some techniques with X-Sabers. So as most people know X-Sabers are taking over tournaments. These monsters are a series of Earth monsters Which are mostly Warriors, or Beast-warriors These cards use their effects to swarm the field. These cards were introduced in the Duel Terminal Pack. X-Sabers were the first Duel Terminal Archetype to gain Spell or Trap support.
1. X-Saber Airbellum
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Probably the most known x-saber in the world he is used a lot with "Rescue Cat" Airbellum also makes your opponent discard 1 card whenever he deals dmg direct. i would recommend 2 min
2. XX-Saber Boggart Knight
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
My favorite X-saber card out there he Came out in The Shining Darkness and he instantly became X-Sabers beat stick with 1900 attack and when he is summoned he can special summon a lvl 4 or lower x-saber card. Recommend 2 min
3. XX-Saber Darksoul
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
The Best Searcher for x-sabers whenever it is destroyed you can add any x-saber to your hand no matter of attack or lvl. Recommend 3
4. XX-saber Faultroll
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Faultroll is kinda like the heart of an X-saber deck when there is 2 on the field he is Special summoned. and he can special summon one x-saber monster from the graveyard per turn. Recommend 3
5. XX-Saber Emmersblade
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
The best known X-saber Searcher before darksoul came out this card was ran at 3 but now he is ran at 2 this searcher doesn't get a monster to the hand it special summons a card lvl 4 or lower. Recommend 2
6. XX-Saber Ragigura
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Ragigura is the one x-saber that returns from the grave when he is summoned he is used with many combos which i will explain later =] for combos id use 2 other than that only use 1
7. XX-Saber Fulhelmknight
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Fulhelmknight has one of the greatest effects ever he can stop one monster from attacking and if he destroys a defense position monster u can special summon one lvl 4 or lower x-saber i Recommend 2
8. X-Saber Pashuul
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
This card is good if you need a steady defense but it comes with a price he cannot be destroyed but you must pay 1000 lp for each of your opponents Stand-by phases. Recommend 1
9. XX-Saber Gottoms
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Strongest synchro card in the deck he has a sweeping 3100 attack points and you can tribute other x-saber monsters to make your opponent discard from their hand this effect is used in the Ragigura loop.
10. XX-Saber Hyunlei
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Hyunlei has the Greatest synchro effect when he is summoned you can destroy 3 spell or trap cards on your opponents side of the field this is a game changing card in my opinion.
Combos:
Airbellum:This card can be searched via "XX-Saber Darksoul", "XX-Saber Garsem", "Sphere of Chaos", "Rescue Cat", and "Flamvell Poun".You can equip this card with "Shooting Star Bow - Ceal" to attack directly and make your opponent discard.
Emmersblade:This card provides easy access to "XX-Saber Hyunlei", by tuning it with the "X-Saber" Tuners ("XX-Saber Fulhelmknight" and "X-Saber Airbellum").Special summon "XX-Saber Ragigura" with this card and you can return this card to your hand. This makes it easy to use "XX-Saber Faultroll".
This card works well with "Gottoms' Emergency Call" since it helps maintain field presence. Also works with "Saber Hole" since it also requires a face up "X-Saber" monster.If you control this card and an "X-Saber Axel", you could suicide this card into your opponent's monsters to summon another "XX-Saber Emmersblade", and repeat to draw overall three cards.
Darksoul:Special Summon this card and "X-Saber Airbellum" with "Rescue Cat" for an instant Synchro Summon of "XX-Saber Hyunlei", or any other Level 6 Synchro Monster, and the ability to search at the end of the turn.Since this card's effect activates in the Graveyard and has 100 ATK, it can be used with "Debris Dragon".This card makes the "Faultroll Loop" easier to perform because it can search out any of the required monsters to your hand.
Faultroll: (Get rdy for a read xD)A powerful combo can be made with this card and "Rescue Cat". First, Special Summon two copies of "X-Saber Airbellum" with "Rescue Cat". Then, Special Summon this card. Use this card's effect to Special Summon a Monster that was sent to the Graveyard in a previous turn. Then, you can tune this card and one "X-Saber Airbellum" together to Synchro Summon "XX-Saber Gottoms" (whose effect would allow you to force your opponent to discard two cards, but that would deprive you with monsters to perform a Synchro summon), and make a second Synchro Summon using the other "Airbellum" and the card summoned with this card.If you have this card, any X-Saber in your hand, "Gottoms' Emergency Call" set, and three or more "X-Sabers" in the graveyard, you can swarm the field with five monsters. (1) Summon the "X-Saber"; (2) activate "Gottoms' Emergency Call"; (3) Special Summon this monster; and (4) Special Summon another monster from the Graveyard with its effect.Another tactic is to summon 2 "X-Saber Airbellum" using "Rescue Cat", and then bring out 3 copies of this card from your hand. Synchro Summon 2 "XX-Saber Gottoms" and activate this card's effect to summon "X-Saber Airbellums" from your graveyard, and summon another "XX-Saber Gottoms".Combo with "Card of Safe Return". (Usable only in Traditional Format at this point.)If you have three copies of this card on the field, have a party with "Mass Driver". Two other "X-Sabers" are required to summon this monster, so if you have those two and three "Faultrolls", you can inflict 800 damage by tributing the two, then one by one, summon an "X-Saber" from the grave and tribute three times for 1200 damage. Then you can inflict another 1200 each turn, until you want to inflict 2400 by also tributing the three "Faultrolls".Use this card to Summon "XX-Saber Ragigura" for his effect.
It would be wise not to use this card for the Synchro Summon of "XX-Saber Gottoms" with "X-Saber Airbellum", unless there is a monster with more than 2400 ATK and less than 3100 ATK that only "XX-Saber Gottoms" can kill unassisted. If you have the opportunity to attack directly, keep the two monsters separate, you can inflict 4000 points of damage (instead of 3100) and force your opponent to discard a card due to "Airbellum"'s effect.You can tribute a "XX-Saber Faultroll" for "Spiritual Earth Art - Kurogane"'s effect to summon an "XX-Saber Ragigura", which will allow you to add "XX-Saber Faultroll" to your hand, and since you probably had the summoning requirements for "XX-Saber Faultroll" on the field in the first place, you can probably summon him again (which will allow you to bring back another X-Saber monster due to "XX-Saber Faultroll"'s effect). This combo gives you an extra monster ("Card of Safe Return" can allow you to draw another card, too).This card has 2 controlled loops involving "XX-Saber Ragigura" with 1 copy of this card on the field (special summoned by having two "X-Sabers" on your field) and 1 in your graveyard. The 1st one makes your opponent lose their entire hand by using "XX-Saber Gottoms". The other is an OTK with "Mass Driver". In both cases you tribute "XX-Saber Faultroll" after you use its effect to special summon "XX-Saber Ragigura" to get the "XX-Saber Faultroll" in your graveyard back into your hand. Then you tribute the "XX-Saber Faultroll" on the field and "XX-Saber Ragigura", and special summon the "XX-Saber Faultroll" you put in your hand to special summon "XX-Saber Ragigura" to get the "XX-Saber Faultroll" in your graveyard back into your hand only to tribute again and repeat ad nauseam.Use "Double Summon" to play two X-Sabers then "Special Summon" it.Use "Phantom of Chaos" to copy another "XX-Saber Faultroll" in your grayard to summon a second "X-Saber" monster then summon this card.
Fulhelmknight:A good strategy would be to destroy a monster by battle with "XX-Saber Fulhelmknight" and then select another "XX-Saber Fulhelmknight" to special summon, and attack and destroy another monster of your opponents with the newly summoned monster, allowing you to special summon another "Fulhelmknight" or a "XX-Saber Ragigura" to add "XX-Saber Faultroll" to your hand with its effect, followed by summoning the "Faultroll" and using his effect to special summon another monster. That's 3-4 monsters with 1 card.One way to ensure there are defense monsters on the opponent's field is to use "Windstorm of Etaqua" , "Enemy Controller"or "Zero Gravity".Special Summon a Level 3 "X-Saber" to instant Synchro Summon "XX-Saber Hyunlei".Use "Jutte Fighter" or "Block Attack" to switch your opponent's monsters to defense position.
Ragigura:Some X-Saber support cards can reuse this card's effect over and over, such as "Gottoms' Emergency Call" and "XX-Saber Faultroll", which allows you to recycle a lot of the other X-Saber monster's effects.This card can be Special Summoned using "One for One", enabling you to summon the Monster you recover with its effect on the same turn. You can even use its effect to recover the Monster that you discarded to pay the cost for "One for One" if that Monster is an X-Saber.You can play "Spiritual Earth Art - Kurogane" to tribute this card while it's being attacked for "XX-Saber Fulhelmknight" (which has to be in your graveyard beforehand), and then you can negate that attack using "Fulhelmknight"'s effect.You can tribute an "XX-Saber Faultroll" for "Spiritual Earth Art - Kurogane"'s effect to summon a "XX-Saber Ragigura", which will allow you to add "XX-Saber Faultroll" to your hand, and since you probably had the summoning requirements for "XX-Saber Faultroll" on the field in the first place, you can probably summon him again (which will allow you to bring back another X-Saber monster due to "XX-Saber Faultroll"'s effect). This combo gives you an extra monster.
Boggart Knight:This card can be searched via "XX-Saber Emmersblade" and "XX-Saber Darksoul".When this card is Normal Summoned, for an easy Synchro Summon, you can do one of the following:Special Summon an "X-Saber Palomuro" from your hand and tune it with this card to get "X-Saber Wayne".Special Summon an "X-Saber Pashuul" from your hand and tune it with this card to get "XX-Saber Hyunlei".Special Summon an "X-Saber Airbellum"/"XX-Saber Fulhelmknight" from your hand and tune it with this card to get "X-Saber Urbellum".This card easily fulfills the requirements for "XX-Saber Faultroll".You can Normal Summon this card and Special Summon an "X-Saber Airbellum" from your Hand using its effect, which while you control two or more "X-Saber" monsters, you can Special Summon an "XX-Saber Faultroll". You can tune your Level 3 "X-Saber Airbellum" with your Level 6 "XX-Saber Faultroll" to Synchro Summon a Level 9 "XX-Saber Gottoms". Then, you can Tribute your "XX-Saber Boggart Knight" for "XX-Saber Gottoms"'s effect to discard 1 random card in your opponent's hand.Special Summon "XX-Saber Ragigura" with this card for an easy recycle without having to summon the vulnerable "Ragigura" alone
Pashuul:Use this card with "Prime Material Dragon", to gain 1000 Life Points during each Standby Phase.If you don't have "Prime Material Dragon" you can use "Des Wombat" to negate the Damage.Or use "Spell of Pain" to inflict it to your opponent, instead.Use this card with "Spirit Barrier", in case your opponent uses monsters that have a Piercing effect.This card can be special summoned from your deck via "Reinforce Truth". Do this during your opponent's turn to avoid its negative effect.
