Analysis:

In case you did read my previous post on Riviere + Pacifica build, this will be a huge copy pasta.


Anyway, like what I've wrote in my recent post, (cue copypasta) the main feature for Bermuda △ is the bouncing ability, in which you get to have a unit returned to your hand due to an unit's ability. By returning the unit to your hand, you probably will gain more hand size, from the bounced back unit's ability or the unit itself.

To utilize this deck to its fullest extent, you'd need to know how control your opponent hand size and attacker. By applying the correct tactics and right timing on ability execution, the deck is pressurizing deck to fight against.

Starting with the triggers, we are playing with balanced triggers, which allows decent drawing power and unpredictability in drive checking. This also means, when you have 5 units or full field, you should hit with either one Rearguard, then hit with the Vanguard and finally, the other Rearguard.

If you realize, the triggers have a combo, in which Bubblin gains 3k power if Ressac is on the stage; Ressac gains 3k power if Flows is on the stage; Flows gains 3k power if Shuplu is on the stage; Shuplu gains 3k power if Bubblin is on the stage; and so on. Of course, you're not going to do this combo, unless you're in a desperate situation.

Moving on, let's talk about Top Idol, Pacifica. Pacifica is a 13k Vanguard when attacking, if you have 4 or more Rearguards, and this makes her a headache for opponent who field 11k Vanguards. Wait, this is not even the best part, we have her Megablast, which allows her to call 3 Rearguards from deck to different Rearguard circles if she does hit the opponent's Vanguard. This sounds fun when you have tons of soul to burn with Counter Blast intact.

Missed riding Pacifica, we have Bermuda Princess, Lena! Lena has the same ability with Pacifica for her first ability. And to recoup the lost of being able to Soul Charge and Mega Blast, she is able to bounce all Bermuda △ unit when ride on Vanguard circle, a copy of OTT's Sakuya's ability. With Rio, Miltoa and Felucca on the stage, you're steering a profit charge or draw.

Back to Grade 1's, nothing much to say on Sedna and Ellie, and you can just copy paste what I've said about 8k vanillas and null guards from my previous posts onto here.

What we'll be talking about are Miltoa and Felucca. Miltoa is a replica of Dark Cat of OTT, which allows both players, you and your opponent to draw a card. Sounds like a loss? No, not at all, when you need extra hand cards and you able to force your opponent into throwing hand cards. Of course, it's all depending on situation. Aside from her abilities, she is a decent booster, having 7k in power. After Miltoa, we have Felucca the watermelon boobs, no, I mean the Soul Charger. Her role in the deck is to "Profit Charge" and fill the soul to feed Flores.

Since I mentioned Flores, let's talk about her. Flores fills up the last 2 slots for Grade 3's. Flores is a pretty good Rearguard, since she is able to pressure your opponent into guarding when you have another Rearguard with good CIP (come in play) ability, and a good Rearguard, I meant Felucca, Miltoa and especially, Rio. Rio's ability is pretty awesome, if you manage to bounce her from the stage, you may Soul Charge *1 and draw a card. With Flores on the field, you be pressuring your opponent into guarding, and combined with Riviere's Persona Blast in early game, you'll be looking at a formidable combo which will not only reduce your opponent's hand card, increasing your hand size at the same time, and inflicting damage on your opponent.

Finally, Top Idol, Aqua. Nothing much to say about her, you may refer to my previous posts on 10k vanillas.

This is my take on the Pacifica - Lena build. Any comments, suggestion or questions? You can post them all in the comment box below. Thanks for reading!
