With the september ban list released, how do you think it will impact gladiator beasts? I got my deck out last night and playtested under new format and it did exceptional. The loss of heavy storm has allowed for ample backfield protection. I'd like to here everyone else's opinion on the matter. Do you think glads will be played more now?

I didn't want to run too many traps since I was running Jinzo and would hate to run into a dead scenario in which he hurts more than he helps. I like running Thestalos in this build because stripping hand advantage while possibly removing an important monster from play really hurts a lot of deck types. Cyber Valley really lets me speed the deck up, and protect myself. Also, I can use his second effect to remove my scout planes from play and get them back, while drawing 2 cards.

(Plus if I mind control, then use his second effect it really can ruin an opponents gameplans)

Just let me know what you think, and if you have any adjustments or suggestions.

It's a different idea, and I haven't tested it yet, but it was fun to build.
