Nordic Beast

The Nordic Beasts known as Polar Star Beast in the OCG and the Japanese anime, are a sub-Archetype for the "Nordic" series which consists of Beast-Type monsters; these monsters are used by Dragan. It is currently the largest "Nordic" sub-Archetype. Most of the effects of the "Nordic Beasts" have something to do with Special Summoning like "Tanngrisnir of the Nordic Beasts" in which can Special Summon Tokens; "Tanngnjóstr of the Nordic Beasts" which Special Summons the other "Nordics", while "Guldfaxe of the Nordic Beasts" can be Special Summoned if you control no monsters and your opponent controls a Synchro Monster. However, unlike it's partners, "Garmr of the Nordic Beasts" has a Bouncing effect that returns monsters to the hand.

The Nordic Beasts are connected to the Norse Mythology God Thor. The two tokens Summoned by "Tanngrisnir" are Tanngnjóstr and Tanngrisnir himself; those beasts are the two goats that pull Thor's chariot. Gullfaxi is a sacred horse in Norse Mythology ; Thor gave it to his son Magni as a reward for helping him in a fight against the Giants. Garm is a dog associated to Ragnarok, and it guards the Underworld.

Play Style
The focus of a Nordic Beasts Deck is to Synchro Summon its best monster, "Thor, Lord of the Aesir". As such, the Deck focuses on quickly Summoning a combination of non-Tuner monsters so that their combined Levels equal 6, then Summoning "Guldfaxe of the Nordic Beasts" to Synchro Summon. As such, a large amount of Level 3 Monsters that can easily be Special Summoned are used, such as "Monoceros". In addition, a combination of Level 4 and Level 2 monsters can be used.

Since the Nordic Beasts are Beasts, other Beast support is recommended, such as "Super-Nimble Mega Hamster", which can search most of the Nordic Beasts and "Ryko, Lightsworn Hunter" (Super-Nimble Mega Hamster and Ryko's combined Levels equal 6). "Giant Rat" can also be used to search for Nordic Beasts, as most of the Nordic Beasts are also EARTH. "Summoner Monk" can search "Guldfaxe".

If only Beast monsters are used, "Naturia Pineapple" can be used as a Level 2 monster that quickly can be Summoned to the field, or "Solidarity" to boost your monsters' ATK, except for Thor. However, these two cards cannot be used together.
