Strategy: Surprise your opponent by summoning basic EARTH and WARRIOR/BEAST-WARRIOR monsters, then boosting them to incredible power with Invigorations, Stim-Packs, and Sogen, PLUS Ultimate Offering to summon monsters faster. Example: First turn, you get: Battle Ox, Kojikocy, Invigoration, Sogen, Stim-Pack, Ultimate Offering. You can play UO to summon Koji and Battle Ox. Then, use invig on BO and stim-pack on Koji, play Sogen, and boom! Koji has 2400 attack, BO has 2300 attack. FIRST TURN. If you fill your deck to the brim with earth-elemental cards, you can do the unimaginable. I beat my friend's Dark Magician and Blue Eyes in one turn with Hane-Hane by using the flip effect on BEWD, then using Invig x3, Stim-Pack, and Reinforcements, increasing his attack to 2850. With a 'Forest' field card, Hane-Hane could've beaten BEWD! Also, using the right cards on Gaia can give him up to 5600 ATTACK!!! (Any element will work with this strategy, such as Salamandra for FIRE monsters and Power of Kaishin for WATER. But Sala is too rare, and WATER monsters are small in numbers and weak.)
Good cards for this strategy:
Battle Ox
Kojikocy
Gaia the Fierce Knight
Judge Man
Lava Battleguard
Swamp Battleguard
Beaver Warrior
Invigoration
Stim-Pack
Giant Soldier of Stone + Sword & Shield
