Master Duel Extra Zero Festival
The sixth Master Duel event is currently underway and features a special restriction that prohibits the Extra Deck. This article will showcase some decks that are finetuned for the Extra Zero Festival.
Extra Zero Festival
The Extra Zero Festival prohibits the Extra Deck by having all Fusion, Synchro, Xyz and Link Monsters forbidden. While you would not be able to add any cards to the Extra Deck during deck construction, the Extra Deck is still available during duels for Pendulum Monsters.
Floowandereeze is the deck to beat in this event. Floowandereeze still has consistency issues since it could not run Pot of Prosperity and Pot of Extravagance without an Extra Deck, and have to rely solely on Pot of Duality. Twin Twisters is a key tech card for this format as it could be played during the Draw Phase or Standby Phase to take out Floowandereeze and the Magnificent Map and Floowandereeze and the Dreaming Town in the mirror match. Twin Twisters is also useful for taking out Zombie World and Skill Drain.
Eldlich is another strong contender, especially with Zombie World teched in against Floowandereeze. Floowandereeze could arrange the chain block to play around Solemn Strike by having the Floowandereeze with the on summon effect on Chain 1 and the Floowandereeze that is returning from banished on Chain 2, hence Solemn Warning is preferred for being able to negate the summon directly.
Ben Kei is also another popular choice for its fast games.
Wanghu is the anti meta choice for this event, being able to shutdown Floowandereeze. Armed Samurai – Ben Kei and Mataza the Zapper are within the range of King Tiger Wanghu is an added bonus.
Endymion could have been a strong contender, but it was pre-emptively hit with additional restriction. Servant of Endymion, Spell Power Mastery and Chicken Game have been limited, severely affecting Endymion’s consistency.
Overall, the Extra Zero Festival is poorly timed, similar to the Fusion Festival. Adventurer and Floowandereeze are a common sight in the Standard format and it is wearying to be facing them again in the Extra Zero Festival.

Can you post these event articles before the events are over? The article itself is great, but there is no point of reading when the event has ended already
This site is getting outdated. Please can you keep ontop of posting the meta game summaries for each month for Master Duel like you do the OCG? June’s Metagame breakdown is still nowhere to be seen.
Please post metagame breakdown for season 6 (June 2022) and Season 7 (July 2022) of Master Duel, thank you beforehand
