What good would the Trunks Saga be without a deck featuring Trunks as your Main Personality. Sadly, there is no Mastery with this deck, but we will fully take advantage of those amazing Trunks Named cards. Trunks Sword position 3 and 4, and Trunks Draws Steel are a must, along with Trunks Energy Sphere, which helps stop a lot of those damaging Combat cards, that you can't stop any other way. Trunks' power is a physical attack that your opponent must have 2 blocking cards to stop, but it has to be used as your first attack. Just think, this isn't even half of the deck!
Besides all of those Trunks Named cards, we've got a ton of amazing attacks. Trunks Sword Position 4, Red Shattering Leap, Black Overpowering Attack, Black Defensive Burst, Blue Round, and Throw Tien Stands Ready are some of the most powerful physical attacks in the game, most of them doing +4 or more stages of damage, in addition to being a physical attack. We also have a pretty good amount of energy attacks to finish off the damage portion of our deck. Trunks Sword Position 3 is a normal energy attack, but if it is successful, you can choose a card from your discard pile and put it on top of your deck. This guy is amazing!
Since the majority of this deck is physical attacks, we've got 3 Orange Joint Restraint Drill which makes all of your physical attacks do +4 power stages of damage. We've also got 3 Vegeta's Quickness Drill to help recycle our attacks, and 3 Breakthrough Drill to help fight decks that end Combat, so that we can get our attacks in.
We don't have too many blocking cards, because we are playing with a lot of versatile cards that do more than just attack. Trunks Cuts Down is a physical attack, or it stops a physical attack. Black Defensive Burst is a physical attack that, if successful, stops your opponent from performing physical attacks for the remainder of Combat. Black Energy Web is just the opposite, being an energy attack that stops your opponent from performing energy attacks. These cards combined with Nappa's Physical Resistance, Nappa's Energy Aura, Time Is A Warrior's Tool, and Chiaotzu's Psychic Halt make sure that you will have plenty of blocking cards to withstand your opponent's assaults.
