Mastering Witchcraft: Unlocking the Secrets of Witchcrafter Golem Arurii

By admin

Witchcrafter Golem Aruru is a powerful monster card in the Yu-Gi-Oh trading card game. It belongs to the Witchcrafter archetype, which focuses on spellcasting and spell recovery. Golem Aruru is one of the key cards in this archetype and is often used for its high attack and defense points. This monster has a level of eight, making it a high-level card that requires two tributes to be summoned. Its attack and defense points are both 2600, making it a formidable opponent on the field. Its effect allows you to discard a spell card from your hand to negate the activation of a spell or trap card and destroy it.


Banish Pittore to draw a card. This is a straight increase in resources since the discarded Witchcrafter Spell can recover itself during the End Phase.

Its effect allows you to discard a spell card from your hand to negate the activation of a spell or trap card and destroy it. This effect can be valuable in disrupting your opponent's strategies and protecting your own cards. One of the unique features of Witchcrafter Golem Aruru is its synergy with other Witchcrafter cards.

Witchcrafter: deck recipe [July 25]

Madame Verre is your main boss monster and your strategy is to get her on the field as quickly as possible. She can be easily Special Summoned from your deck by other Witchcrafter monsters, Special Summoned from the hand with Unveiling, and revived with Holiday.

With the Witchcrafter Spells' ability to retrieve themselves, Madame Verre's ATK boost will consistently get your Witchcrafter monsters above most monsters. But be mindful of how many Spells you use or set. Generally, you should keep at least 2 differently named Spells on hand, or 3 when facing HERO and other high-power decks.

Because of Madame Verre's high DEF, Concentrating Current can be used to further boost her ATK if you don't have enough Spells on hand or just want to push damage.

Lastly, the mass monster effect negation is what differentiates Madame Verre from any other beater. By just discarding 1 Spell you get a temporary equivalent to Destiny HERO - Plasma's effect that can be used in response to your opponent's effect activation. This is good for stopping combo pieces (i.e. Crystron Citree) and search-on-summon monsters (i.e. Vision HERO Faris), usually forcing your opponent to end their turn. The negation can also get rid of protection effects (i.e. Archfiend Zombie-Skull and Red-Eyes Slash Dragon) and remove inherent stats boosts (i.e. Shiranui Shogunsaga and Invoked Purgatrio), and overall just be a very versatile form of disruption. However Madame Verre cannot stop monster effects activated from the graveyard or hand, so floating effects and hand traps will go through.

Ideally you should summon Madame Verre in defense position and have another Witchcrafter onboard to do the actual fighting while being boosted by Madame Verre.

Witchcrafter Monsters

These monsters are used to fast track you into Madame Verre. Normal Summon them then tribute to Special Summon Madame Verre from the deck. Being a Quick Effect makes these effects more potent because you can chain them to cards your opponent activates upon their summoning, dodging Floodgate Trap Hole.

For the discard cost, it is best to discard Unveiling since you'll already be putting Madame Verre on the field. During the End Phase, you can retrieve the Spell you discarded with its own effect.

After being tributed, you can then use Schmeitta and Pittore's graveyard effect to get more Witchcrafter Spells. Use this to get Spells that you don't have a copy onhand to help fuel Madame Verre's effects.


Witchcrafter Schmietta
FIRE Spellcaster ★4
ATK 1800 / DEF 1600
Witchs Sorcery [UR]
During the Main Phase (Quick Effect): You can Tribute this card, then discard 1 Spell; Special Summon 1 "Witchcrafter" monster from your Deck, except "Witchcrafter Schmietta". You can banish this card from your GY; send 1 "Witchcrafter" card from your Deck to the GY, except "Witchcrafter Schmietta". You can only use each effect of "Witchcrafter Schmietta" once per turn.

Banish Schmietta and mill a Witchcrafter Spell to the graveyard. You can then recover that Spell with its own effect during the End Phase.

After getting Madame Verre onboard, you should try to summon a Schmietta. This Schmeitta will be your primary attacker and serve as a backup in case your first Madame Verre gets removed.


Witchcrafter Pittore
WATER Spellcaster ★3
ATK 1000 / DEF 1500
Witchs Sorcery [SR]
During the Main Phase (Quick Effect): You can Tribute this card, then discard 1 Spell; Special Summon 1 "Witchcrafter" monster from your Deck, except "Witchcrafter Pittore". You can banish this card from your GY; draw 1 card, then send 1 "Witchcrafter" card from your hand to the GY, or, if you have none, banish your entire hand. You can only use each effect of "Witchcrafter Pittore" once per turn.

Banish Pittore to draw a card. This is a straight increase in resources since the discarded Witchcrafter Spell can recover itself during the End Phase.

You can use Schmietta to mill Pitorre to the graveyard and activate her draw effect. Likewise, you can discard Schmietta with Pitorre's effect to use her mill effect.


Witchcrafter Genni
WIND Spellcaster ★1
ATK 300 / DEF 500
Tea Gardner (DSOD) Unlock Event [UR]
During the Main Phase (Quick Effect): You can Tribute this card and discard 1 Spell; Special Summon 1 "Witchcrafter" monster from your Deck, except "Witchcrafter Genni". You can banish this card and 1 "Witchcrafter" Spell from your GY; this effect becomes that Spell's effect when that card is activated. You can only use each effect of "Witchcrafter Genni" once per turn.

Waiting for the Witchcrafter Spells to recover themselves can sometimes be too slow. For this reason you might want to use Genni's graveyard effect to make use of the effect of a Witchcrafter Spell in your graveyard. This also allows you to make use of Holiday twice to swarm your field.

The trade-off is the Witchcrafter Spell you imitate will be banished and this deck doesn't have any interaction with the banish zone.

Witchcrafter Spells & Traps

All Witchcrafter Spells have a unique primary effect and a common recycle effect. The recycling effect is free making it great for maintaining resources and, more importantly, the constant supply of Spells keeps both of Madame Verre's effects fueled.

However, there is some nuance on how to best make use of these Spells since they do have some restrictions. Firstly you cannot recyle a Witchcrafter Spell the turn you activate it. Keep this in mind so you have enough Spells for Madame Verre's effect. Second, even if you don't activate the Spell, you can only recycle one copy of each Spell per turn. Keep this in mind when discarding and milling with Pitorre and Schmietta.


Witchcrafter Holiday
Normal Spell
Witchs Sorcery [R]
Target 1 "Witchcrafter" monster in your GY; Special Summon it. During your End Phase, if you control a "Witchcrafter" monster, while this card is in your GY: You can add this card to your hand. You can only use 1 "Witchcrafter Holiday" effect per turn, and only once that turn.

Revive the Witchcrafter you tributed, so you will have a backup Madame Verre summoning. You can also use this to revive a Madame Verre sent to the graveyard by your opponent.

When you activate a Witchcrafter's effect to Special Summon Madame Verre, your opponent can chain something like Raigeki Break to disrupt it. In this case, you can revive the Witchrafter monster and retry Special Summoning Madame Verre.

Holiday is also useful to bring back monsters so you can synchro or XYZ summon easier.


Witchcrafter Collaboration
Normal Spell
Witchs Sorcery [R]
Target 1 "Witchcrafter" monster you control; it can make a second attack during each Battle Phase this turn, also, if it attacks this turn, your opponent cannot activate Spell/Trap Cards until the end of the Damage Step. During your End Phase, if you control a "Witchcrafter" monster, while this card is in your GY: You can add this card to your hand. You can only use 1 "Witchcrafter Collaboration" effect per turn, and only once that turn.

Collaboration is an OTK enabler you should only use on the monster you boost wit Madame Verre boosted. With the ATK boost you would be dealing a ton of damage. You might not even need the second attack if you add Concentrating Current to this combo. Additionally it prevents your opponent from using Spell/Trap cards during battle, letting you attack safely without worrying about battle traps.


Witchcrafter Unveiling
Quick Spell
Witchs Sorcery [R]
Special Summon 1 "Witchcrafter" monster from your hand, and if you do, your opponent cannot activate cards or effects in response to the activation of your Spellcaster monster effects for the rest of this turn. During your End Phase, if you control a "Witchcrafter" monster, while this card is in your GY: You can add this card to your hand. You can only use 1 "Witchcrafter Unveiling" effect per turn, and only once that turn.

When you open with only Madame Verre and a bunch of Spell cards, Unveiling lets you get that Madame Verre onboard. You can even do this during your opponent's turn so that Madame Verre is protected from negation for that turn.

You can make a good board by Special Summoning Madame Verre in defense position with Unveiling. And then Normal Summoning a Witchcrafter for Madame Verre to boost. The low-leveled Witchcrafter can later turn into a back-up Madame Verre.


Witchcrafter Patronus
Continuous Trap
Tea Gardner (DSOD) Unlock Event [SR]
You can target 1 of your Spellcaster monsters that is banished or in your GY; shuffle it into the Deck, and if you do, add 1 "Witchcrafter" Spell from your Deck to your hand. If this card is in your GY, except the turn it was sent there: You can banish this card, then target any number of your banished "Witchcrafter" Spells with different names; add them to your hand. You can only use each effect of "Witchcrafter Patronus" once per turn.

Patronus can fetch a Spell card every turn while also recovering your Witchcrafter monsters making it a great source of resources.

Later on, you'll want to get rid of Patronus with something like Storm. Then recover all your banished Witchcrafter Spell cards. Occasionally, the amount of resources you get from doing this is enough for an OTK play.


Witchcrafter Masterpiece
Normal Trap
Tea Gardner (DSOD) Lvl 3, 14, and 25 [R]
If you control a "Witchcrafter" monster: Target 1 Spell in either GY; add 1 card with the same name from your Deck to your hand. During either player's turn, except the turn this card was sent to the GY: You can banish this card and any number of Spells from your GY; Special Summon 1 "Witchcrafter" monster from your Deck whose Level equals the number of Spells banished to activate this effect. You can only use each effect of "Witchcrafter Masterpiece" once per turn.

Masterpiece is a one-card combo into Madame Verre. Activate Masterpiece to search a Spell. Banish Masterpiece and a Spell in your graveyard to Special Summon Genni. Tribute Genni and discard the Spell you searched to Special Summon Madame Verre.

Alternatively, you can simply use Masterpiece for its search effect.

Neos Fusion Engine

Neos Fusion essentially puts Brave Neos on the field for free if all your materials came from the Deck. The best part is milling the fusion material including Elemental HERO Neos, which is a somewhat versatile graveyard setup. Meanwhile Brave Neos simply an easy to summon beater. The first effect is only marginally helpful, letting Brave Neos start with 2600 because Neos will be in the graveyard.


Elemental HERO Neos
LIGHT Warrior ★7
ATK 2500 / DEF 2000
Jaden Yuki [UR]
Special Pack Vol. 02 [UR]
KC Grand Tournament Celebration Campaign [UR Glossy]
A new Elemental HERO has arrived from Neo-Space! When he initiates a Contact Fusion with a Neo-Spacian, his unknown powers are unleashed.

Elemental HERO Brave Neos
LIGHT Warrior ★7
ATK 2500 / DEF 2000
Neos Fusion [UR]
"Elemental HERO Neos" + 1 Level 4 or lower Effect Monster
Must be Fusion Summoned. Gains 100 ATK for each “Neo-Spacian” and “HERO” monster in your GY. When this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle: You can add 1 Spell/Trap from your Deck to your hand that specifically lists the card “Elemental HERO Neos” in its text.

Neos Fusion
Normal Spell
Neos Fusion [SR]
Special Summon 1 Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck that lists exactly 2 monsters as material, including “Elemental HERO Neos”, by sending those monsters from your hand, Deck, or field, ignoring its Summoning conditions. For the rest of this turn after this card resolves, you cannot Special Summon monsters. If a Fusion Monster(s) you control that lists “Elemental HERO Neos” as material would be destroyed by battle or card effect, or shuffled into the Extra Deck by its own effect, you can banish this card from your GY instead.

Techs

Because Madame Verre already does a great job at stopping monster effects, the tech options in this deck are fully devoted to backrow disruption or others combo.


Metalfoes Fusion
Normal Spell
Maximum Gustav [R]
Fusion Summon 1 "Metalfoes" Fusion Monster from your Extra Deck, using monsters from your hand or field as Fusion Materials. If this card is in your Graveyard: You can shuffle it into the Deck, then draw 1 card. You can only use this effect of "Metalfoes Fusion" once per turn.

Free Discard Options for activating disruption cards like Madame Verre or Karma Cut. After using it, you can use it in the grave right away for a card draw.


Karma Cut
Normal Trap
Arena of Sanctuary [SR]
Selection Box Vol. 02 Mini [SR]
Discard 1 card, then target 1 face-up monster your opponent controls; banish that target, then banish all cards with the same name as that monster from your opponent's Graveyard.

A pretty good monster removal that also has an added benefit of removing multiple copies of them if they're also in the graveyard. Great against the mirror match, or other decks that uses same name monsters, but good in general too.

Rank 8


Number 15: Gimmick Puppet Giant Grinder
DARK Machine ★8
ATK 1500 / DEF 2500
Darkness Gimmick [UR]
2 Level 8 monsters
Up to twice per turn, during your Main Phase 1: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then target 1 Special Summoned monster your opponent controls; destroy it, then if it was an Xyz Monster, inflict damage to your opponent equal half to its original ATK.

A rank 8 Gimmick Puppet XYZ that simply destroy monsters then inflict Damage equal to half of their original ATK and you can use this effect twice.

However, keep in mind that this destruction effect has a restriction where it can only destroy special summoned monsters and its low attack can be bad if you have no protection or a follow-up.


Hieratic Sun Dragon Overlord of Heliopolis
LIGHT Dragon ★8
ATK 3000 / DEF 2500
Infinite Ray [UR]
2 Level 8 monsters
Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; Tribute any number of monsters from your hand and/or your side of the field (minimum 1), then destroy an equal number of cards on the field.

Summonable by using 2 Madame Verres. Situationally useful if your Madame Verres is negatively affected by your opponent's cards. Going into Heliopolis can help clear up space, and you can activate its effect by sending a Madame Verre to the graveyard, then you can special summon it back by using Witchcrafter Holiday.

Rank 4


Abyss Dweller
WATER Sea Serpent ★4
ATK 1700 / DEF 1400
Photons of Galaxy [UR]
Selection Box Vol.03 Mini [UR] [UR]
2 Level 4 monsters
While this card has an Xyz Material attached that was originally WATER, all WATER monsters you control gain 500 ATK. Once per turn, during either player's turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card; any card effects that activate in your opponent's Graveyard cannot be activated this turn.

Abyss Dweller is an anti-Graveyard interaction tech, intended to hinder Decks that activate a ton of effects from the graveyard. It's best to activate this at the start of the opponent's turn, so make sure to toggle Chain to "ON" and activate Abyss Dweller's effect during the opponent's Draw Phase.


Number 70: Malevolent Sin
DARK Insect ★4
ATK 2400 / DEF 1200
Photons of Galaxy [SR]
2 Level 4 monsters
Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then target 1 monster your opponent controls; banish it until your opponent's next Standby Phase. At the end of the Damage Step, if this card attacked: You can make this card gain 300 ATK, and if you do, increase its Rank by 3.

Malevolent Sin's effect only temporarily banishes your opponent's monster, but it can help win games if your opponent uses plenty of resources to focus on their 1 boss monster. Together with Schmietta, it's already enough to deal over 4000 damage.

Rank 3


Number 47: Nightmare Shark
WATER Fish ★3
ATK 2000 / DEF 2000
Reginald Kastle Unlock Event [UR]
2 Level 3 monsters
When this card is Special Summoned: You can attach 1 Level 3 WATER monster from your hand or your side of the field to this card as an Xyz Material. Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then target 1 WATER monster you control; this turn, that monster can attack your opponent directly, also other monsters cannot attack.

Ranks 3s are summonable by using Pittores. Nightmare Shark helps when going against Big Boss Monster.


The Phantom Knights of Break Sword
DARK Warrior ★3
ATK 2000 / DEF 1000
Phantom of Rebellion [SR]
2 Level 3 monsters
Once per turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card, then target 1 card you control and 1 card your opponent controls; destroy them. If this Xyz Summoned card is destroyed: You can target 2 "The Phantom Knights" monsters with the same Level in your Graveyard; Special Summon them and increase their Levels by 1, also you cannot Special Summon monsters for the rest of this turn, except DARK monsters.

A 1 for 1 card removal that works like Diamond Dire Wolf, except this lets you use any other card on your field to destroy. Since some of the cards have effects in the grave or can be recovered during the end phase, you can somewhat freely use them as the cost for its effect.
