Banished Fish

Ok so I'm here now to discuss this deck type that has been much discussed.  Before people had really scene it in action, this was just about the most overhyped deck ever.  Even I jumped on board and wrote up the lolwiki page (here).  Then people begun to test this deck and realized just how flawed it was.  They could swarm the field decently, but once you had done that, there was nothing else you could do and your field was stuck with a bunch of weak monsters.  I feel there is a reason that they should now be discussed again. Photon Shockwave.

Photon Shockwave release many new things, including new support for Watts, Naturias and more.  It also released a brand new element to the game. Xyz monsters (just call them exceeds in your head for simplicity).  These are relatively strong monsters that you can easily get out in a Banished Fish deck.  Simply overlay two level 3 monsters (which most of the monsters are) and take your pick of all the Rank 3 xyzs you have in your extra deck.

Now, I haven't tested this deck yet because Dueling Network (the online website to play Yu-Gi-Oh) has yet to update with xyzs, but I have found them to be relatively strong and with the help of Deepsea Diva, I can get out synchro monsters instead.  The spell and trap support is also rather good.  Fish and Kicks is good for later in the game, while the traps can either swarm the field (Fish Rain) or stop your opponent (Oh F!sh).

As for a decklist, I will post that later including reasoning for each card as well as a short piece about overall strategy.  Bye for now, thanks for reading!
