The Glimmer of the Deep Beyond

Master Duel - Ghoti Banner

This Loaner Deck is a great way to learn the strengths of the Fish-type monsters. The archetype of this Deck is heavily focused on the Ghoti archetype and their penchant for Special Summoning themselves the turn after they were banished from the game.

A "Ghoti" Deck that takes advantage of banishing.
The Level 2 "Ghoti" Tuner Monster has an effect that Special Summons itself to its own field at a specific timing, if it was banished.
Prepare your field during your turn, and use the effects such as that of "Paces, Light of the Ghoti" to Synchro Sumon a Fish-type Synchro Monster on your opponent's turn. If you can Special Summon "Ghoti of the Deep Beyond," you can banish all of the cards on the field!
