RA Invoked(in progress)

[Klueade]

RA Invoked
I've been trying to build something original but functional that includes Invoked. This is as close as I've gotten so far, I feel it has promise. At this stage however I would like some insight from more dedicated and experienced players, in hopes I can improve my vision of RA Invoked.

Why only one of each "power card" like Ash and Imperm?

I’m just trying to wrap my mind how this works other the basic Aleister combo.

I did some "research" and contemplated on feedback and test hands and such and made some minor changes. I think there is further improvements needed/possible, hopefully with some assistance I can identify solutions faster.

Why only one of each "power card" like Ash and Imperm?

I wanted to save space, and have a more dynamic approach instead of drawing 2 copies of ash. "Infinite Impermanence" is good at 3, but I felt it may be redundant if I'm playing 3 The Winged Dragon of Ra - Sphere Mode" for example.

I also wanted at least 1 card of each attribute for "Aleister The Invoker" and also given there is already a Divine Attribute. Also, it would be cool if there was an Invoked fusion that required a Divine Monster...Just sayin.

I’m just trying to wrap my mind how this works other the basic Aleister combo.

"Lord Of The Heavenly Prison" is used for searching various cards whether it's another searcher, "Soul Crossing", or "Witch's Strike" for a future pseudo negate or response to. All while ideally adding beneficial counters to "Powersink Stone" the same turn. Not to mention being decent enough backrow protection. "Powersink Stone" just feels like a fun card, similar to "Witch's Strike" but could be used to my advantage by dropping a hand trap on my opponents turn. To be honest the concept of this deck is high hopes with potential, and low expectations with preparation.

OTK with "The Winged Dragon Of Ra" is obviously one win condition I'm going for. I also thought "Egyptian God Slime" be paired with "Aleister the Invoker" could boost it to enough to attack for game. I've also considered using "Garura, Wings of Resonant Life", obviously "Invoked Purgatrio" and now "Starving Venom Fusion Dragon" for the same purpose. I recently added "Millennium Revelation" and "Monster Reborn" to maybe help these win conditions become more likely.

I also put this together because I like how many of the cards are unaffected by negates or can't be responded to in time. I know it's quite lack luster compared to more efficient/known builds, but I felt like I came up with this overall strategy myself with "Lord Of The Heavenly Prison" tactics and combining Invoked with Ra. Which is probably not the case, but I like these cards being combined aesthetically so I want to make the best of it.

Well it has been about a year or so, so I figured I'd leave an update on the uh, "progress"... I decided to throw in all the God cards. I realized it's going to be bricky either way. I came across multiple barriers in the design process. I wanted to play certain cards together and make the best of it without cutting a lot of bricks to 0... So this is where it's at, at the moment minus 1 extra deck monster.

I just like to tinker around and build things, so I am aware this is far from meta but at least now is casually acceptable imo. I mean it has it's moments. There are certain ratios or cards I just didn't like and it cramped the "style" i was going for or was too "net-deck" for my taste. Though I have ignored those factors if it made the deck a serious undeniable competitive threat, otherwise I can't help but throw in my own spice. It can OTK and stuff though, Especially if you think ahead well enough. For example, you may want to keep certain cards on your and/or opponents field so you can later remove them with the Horus nobody plays. So the true sun god doesn't stop you from attacking.

I have grown fond of the composition and feels very thematic in my mind, even though a lot of cards don't have to do with one another. Even if I do likely lose, Aleister got normal summoned and kaiju's came down, the Horus engine came through, and for the grand finale the Egyptian Gods appear. I mean, Idk... I just think that's cool. This is the only deck I will routinely consider altering, it has helped me become more acquainted with Yu-Gi-Oh! card pool.
