depends if tokens created by lair of darkness counts as owned by the opponent. I could see a turbo of this in conjonction with Lo D.
In unrelated news, holy shit assault modes are now good to the point of being almost retarded. I could almost shit two stardust assault modes on the first turn in a dedicated assault mode deck rather than just 1 most of the time in a deidcated turbo stardust build.
I probably need to refine this more than just 10 minutes but I could see the deck be a pretty legitimate rogue deck, it has a scary amount of negations and wipes. Maybe with one more assault mode and maybe another piece of support.

The ace of the next Structure Deck is a Pendulum. Konami likes synergy so I'm wondering if the next booster set will be Pendulum-focused after all.
Brenner's Wolves Fight Again
Cyberse Pendulum Dragon incoming!
Where there's life, there's hope.
The Unknown
Speaking of Pendulums, we got a Pendulum Boss Monster for Spell Counter decks.
The i. one.
So I've been playing around with Evil Eye, and I severely under-appreciated how good the Selene equip is. The protection it offers is immense, and your ATK racks up really damn quick when your chaining all your EE effects. Running Null Nun is pretty much mandatory though, since it'll also be draining your LP faster than Trickster burn ever could. Well not really, but god help you if that's what you're up against.
Seems to be pretty grindy overall, I almost never find a good time to link summon anything, not even their boss monster. Giving up three of my monsters, one of them being a massive beatstick that can snipe SS'd monsters, for a version that admittedly has a better snipe effect, but now has to start with lower ATK? Perhaps future monsters will mitigate the setup required to make it viable, but right now it feels safer to just have Regular Serziel and Medusa out.
The i. one.
Malefics have a searcher
! ...Which is basically useless unless they're getting a fuckton of new support that's usable.

Malefics also have a card that removes their biggest restrictions. Plus it searches and protects Malefic World as bonuses.

I find it hilarious that they have to make a card that straight up admits every single original restriction of that archtype was bullshit, buuuut this IS a very good piece of support for them.
"when you stare too long into the abyss, Xehanort takes advantage of the distraction to break into your house and steal all your shit."
Like reflections in the glass!
Golly, its as if making archtypes filled with boss monsters with restrictions that make it impossible to use in a pure deck was a mistake 
.
Role Model
Incidentally, Kaiju aren't bad for the game, now that I'm using them in a deck.
#BanAllDanger, though.
The sad, REAL American dichotomy
The i. one.
The more I play Evil Eye, the more I feel like a bully. To the point that I'm apparently
◊ some sort
◊ of hacker
◊. Somehow that's not the first time I've been accused of that because of protection effects.
C'mon randomers, a single MST can kill the deck's momentum right now. Or Timelords. Timelords work too.
Role Model
What card would MST need to negate?
The sad, REAL American dichotomy
The i. one.
Evil Eye of Selene. Without it, monsters lose their disruption and the spell/traps lose most or all of their power.
Could also let someone spam Evil Eye effects while it's equipped and watch their LP plummet. That happens a lot.
So I'm not the only one amused by Malefic Territory being the next B.E.F. Zelos.
The i. one.
Card reveals for SAST. There's a new Danger! Also some sort of... anti-kaiju kaiju. New TCG archetype and more Valkyrie stuff.
Like reflections in the glass!
Okay, who in the YGOrg staff plays Fire Emblem Heroes?
The Unknown
New banlist is up. Lots of hits to Dark Warrior combo decks and Thunder Dragons.
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?
Well I'm off to weep for my Six Samurai.
All I want is to play without thinking too hard.
Role Model
And by "lots of hits", you mean "Gold Sarc is limited". At least, that's the only card in my deck that changes, and even then, I guess it just opens up deck space for Frayleigh/Thunderclap Monk.
Cyber-Stein is Limited, and no longer forbidden? Huh.
Snow is forbidden. I don't like to view cards as "degenerate", but still... good riddance.

Snow was a Thunder Dragon card.
Role Model
Snow is a miscellaneous card, a reuseable Book of Moon, also I didn't run any in my deck.

And for a nice convenient list~
TCG 2019 January 28th
- Forbidden:
- Fairy Tail – Snow
- Grinder Golem
- Topologic Gumblar Dragon
- Number 42: Galaxy Tomahawk
- Number 86: Heroic Champion – Rhongomyniad
- Soul Charge
- Limited:
- Chaos Emperor Dragon – Envoy of the End
- Cyber Stein
- Dark Grepher
- Shurit, Strategist of the Nekroz
- El Shaddoll Construct
- Brilliant Fusion
- Gold Sarcophagus
- Magical Mid-Breaker Field
- Scapegoat
- Slash Draw
- Semi-Limited:
- [no changes]
- No Longer on List:
- Inzektor Hornet
- Nekroz of Brionac
- Evilswarm Exciton Knight
- Interruped Kaiju Slumber
- The Monarchs Stormforth
- Eradicator Epidemmic Virus
- Infernity Barrier
- Wind-Up Magician
- T.G. Hyper Librarian
- Limiter Removal
Not a bad list. Not a fan of Barrier, Stormforth, and Slumber moving up. I would've limited Grass in return for Snow's ban, but my guess is they know Grass will be a bit much with Danger, so it isn't worth the chance. My current True Draco build will love the Stormforths though. I can also use it with my Succubus Knight deck, as it doesn't have to ED summon every turn to win. Though the lack of Gofu, Level Eater, and Dandylion really hurts its potential. I would've only kept Gofu around(till Needlefiber is in the TCG, anyway). Also, some of these unlimits feel "about time", bar Barrier and Limiter Removal.
Brenner's Wolves Fight Again
I would trade those 2 Stormforths for 1 more Pantheism.
3 Eradicators is nice for Lair.
Gotta start removing those Soul Charges now.
Wish Dandy goes back to 1 and Level Eater becomes once per turn

Where there's life, there's hope.
Funny thing is I wonder if a hard opt would fix Dandylion at this point.
Level Eater I'd allow up to 3 times per turn, so it's useful as a triple tribute. But yeah, a hard opt is probably better. Plus, I like seeing the word Thrice.
BLUE EYES FINAL DRAGON - At any point in this duel, you can reveal this card in your deck or hand to you win the duel.
RED EYES FINAL DRAGON - Reveal this card to lose the duel and cause your parents to divorce and your sister to go blind.
