Not a big fan of this Blue Wave package myself. You only have 4 RG Blue Wave options once you've ridden Tetra Drive, with only 3 if you also rode Beragios on Turn 1. Plus you'd need to both be in a situation where you want to use Flood hazard & meet the conditions for it's restand which makes it too conditional for my liking. You could use Tetra-Boil who doesn't need a Blue Wave RG to battle but it's a lot weaker sadly and it really needs G Valeos to be viable. I think Aqua Force on the whole needs to run a few resist units as well (admittedly most are basically vanillas 99% of the time). Ladder is nice, but any interactive deck (Narukami, Granblue, DI, etc..) will still wreck AqF the non Ladder turns. Personally I'd remove the 2 Tetra Drives for 1 V Thavas & either 1 Supreme Ruler Thavas (mainly for giving resist) or 1 V Hydro Hurricane Dragon. V Thavas & Hydro also provides more proactive removal and stops people pairing Honoly with Dizmel against us. All 3 of these also double as effective RGs. If you're not as worried about G3s doubling as RGs there's also Fort Vessel Dragon which gives you a Accel and a nice -5k debuff. If you add a V Thavas, it makes running Progenitor Dragon of Deep Sea, Balanerena viable which also pairs really nicely with the Saber Flow package, giving her more uses. As Balanerena doesn't CB, it gives you a play when under Honoly making up for dropping Flood Hazard & Tetra Drive.
Very well thought out and explained. Thank you for taking the time for your feedback. Yes, there's a part of me that wishes we didn't have to rely on a BW RG. The Tetra-boil is a great alternative without having to worry so much about it, but it is weaker like you said. Yep that's the other generic alternative G3s that can help as RGs or VG use cases. Outside of BAL turns, we are still susceptible to disruptive plays. The one alternative is to go wider to be less susceptible to it. I've considered Ruler Thavas as a permanent heart on Turn 4+. Although, we'll be limited to 2 Accel circles (unless we go into Furiargus). Perhaps we can still lean on that and make our Alexandros turns much more impactful. Such as having a 2nd Unseenable Dragon to flip G Zone cards faster. Or Stoicheia cards like Ideal Far Away, Nectar, Lyuoka, etc.
@@CommanderJaime It depends on what I have available. As a minimum, I will have 1 unit to re-stand due to Genovious call skill. Usually, I try to have a Repress strike so I can give all triggers to him. Combining that with a few Pursuits/Coral/Nerissa should be enough to win assuming your opponent doesn´t honoly or something like that. Having Miltiadis in hand assures me that I can draw as much as I want to defend myself and then have something to counterattack. (pray that your opponent doesn´t OT)
@@TheLiamBris thanks for sharing. Yeah I feel that is the best case scenario. Coral Assault and Pursuit also shine more on that turn. It's like a mini Furiargus turn too.

@@Kiryu414 hi there! Looks pretty good and it really takes the style of V Thavas/V Lambros overall. This is another direction that players can still rely on. I do have some thoughts/suggestions. 1. Is Algos the D series or V series? I'm assuming D series since it's a better ride target and great for ride down plays. 2. Do you run into bricking with having enough RGs to rest? If so, I'd recommend the Stoicheia G2 Prodpollen. 3. Have you considered the Stoicheia Order called Frozen Resentment? It can help with consistency on finding combo pieces early on, especially if you need Resters on your Turn 3. 4. Have you considered the new G1 promo, Unseenable Dragon? It can even help defensively if you do Ride down plays too.
@@PYMTCGgoodness yep revival cards are always welcomed in AqF. To an extent, the Sea Strike Enlargluv is a "revival" card too. Just goes to hand, which you can then call the card. Keep me posted.
@@CommanderJaime I agree and I wanna run more enlargluv since I’m into High Synergy cards and high synergy situations. 1 spiritual condensation, habitat or Diantha then Call enlargluv, SB1 call a different G2/3. 1 card makes 2 attackers is just amazing.
@@PYMTCGgoodness yep absolutely agree! Any form of +1 in AqF can make a difference! Especially reusing combo pieces we need for the specific scenario. 💪
You can if you like to. I mainly rely on Beragios since eventually you'll see him. You can also use the 2nd copy of Tetra too as a RG. Sea Strike and retrieve the 2nd Tetra as well. It's more of an optional play if you have it. Feel free to tweak it to your preference.
Phenomenal deck profile as always my friend
I appreciate the kind words amigo! Thanks for watching!

I am more of a Miltiadis/Genovious enjoyer (precisely to have a kill turn while avoiding deckout), but I like the idea of running Tetra-Drive.
@@TheLiamBris yep that's a good pair to have as well! What does your Legion turn typically look like if you don't mind sharing?

Tbh I would want to promote and use order cards like spiritual condensation.
Also Diantha. I’ll build up a deck and let you know

i think if your deck is not running as many blue wave cards just use tetra boil
