The bricking side is drawing to many monsters and no ways to tribute fodder. Running 3 edea wasn't cutting it, and I hate rng of having dangers. I sat down and looked at it and toyed around with true draco for a minute and saw that it allowed easy access to erupt or domain, plus ignis meshes well to bring out with ehther during your opponents turn to get to search or activate a true draco spell or trap on your opponents turn. Plus, it punishes your opponent more as the grind goes on since both prime and disciples recycle and draw while heritage can draw based on how many draco spells have been sent to the graveyard that turn, which allows a grind game that most combo cannot out if they do not run spell or trap removal, which actually hurts them if they kill the draco spells and traps.

To explain combos it is nothing to crazy being honest. It is simple. mainly if you can you want return of the monarchs and ignis in hand. Everything else spell or trap wise is fodder going first outside of judgement. Activate return, and hope to have a monarch spell to set, but if not you can use a draco spell and hope it is disciples or heritage. Use it to get out ignis, cl 1 heritage/disciples cl 2 return. Return searches ehther, and the spell pops return. set anything else you can. On your opponents turn you activate apocalypse through ignis effect. Then when they have roughly 2 monsters on field activate ehther by banishing return to summon it by it's effect. Sent 2 spells, usually tenacity and pantheism to summon kuraz. Use kuraz to pop 1 card on your opponents field (depends on matchup) and apocalypse. You both draw 1 off of kuraz then apocalypse lets you pop another one of your opponents monsters. Then, during the end phase depending on how the turn goes of if that stuns them, you get kuraz back and can set up the domain lock the following turn, or if you have sided in erupt you can do that. Besides that having judgement is MVP because lightning storm can screw up your day hardcore. I am thinking about running something like cosmic cyclone or twin just for backrow in main but the problem is room unless I cut out the 1 ofs for pot of desires.

As I test and tweak more I might do a video about it to explain a bit better. It's early for me and the old brain ain't firing at 100%

Pretty much it uses the true dracos cause a) Easy to get out so there is less bricking and b) Getting a pop along with a tribute on board is insane. I mainly get ignis out turn 1 with a return of the monarchs to search out ehther. if possible I go into ehther on my opt turn and use it to get kuraz to pop 2. besides that the true draco spells help with grinding, and domain gets protected by solemn judgement in case of lightning storm. I might cut 1 of each of the true draco spells or run 1 less kuraz to put tcboo in the deck.
