Okay sure, you have a whole field with DA. Only you suddenly don’t have a field due to a decent player using a disruption ability such as counter destruction or resting. These days, the best offense has an answer for such tactics. Thunder Empire, Chaos, and even Deity Dragon Tribe all have that. Linkdragon Order doesn’t.

And that is precisely their main weakness. They can gain an incredible amount of life, leading to amazing defense while also having an amazing amount of attacks. But it doesn’t change the fact that as soon as someone throws a wrench into the gears, the whole thing comes tumbling down. Basically, any opponent that lets you gain 32 life in one turn deserves to lose.

Also, to be fair, counter removal needs a comeback after being thoroughly nerfed throughout X thanks to Athora, Batzz, and Chaos.
