Forum:It's Electric: Thunder's v.DozBate

Like many other's I have been tempted by the new Thunder (archetype) cards that are being released in the OCG sometime soon. MY build focuses pretty much purely on quick Rank 4 XYZ summon's, through the effects of OToThunder, OKaThunder and Summoner Monk. To support these monsters I have found that using 1 each of Mystic Tomato and Shining Angel to be most useful for summoning the 3 main monster's of the deck. Also 2 Thunder Seahorse and 3 Pot of Duality give me more excellent searching option's, especially in Turn 1 where I can use Duality, Seahorse and set one of my floater's to set up my big play next turn. Thunderking Rai-Oh is main decked for me, unlike other build's I have seen for a couple of reasons, firstly is it's 2nd effect of negating summon's, which is an under-rated use for Rai-Oh, secondly, it is easy to play around his effect to stop adding cards from deck to hand, either by using the search before his summon, or after XYZ into a Rank 4. Finally 2 other cards to mention before the decklist are Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning and Spirit Conversion Device. The former is a great card for Mid to Late game, and thanks to the Summoner Monk and Mystic Tomato, I rarely find myself without a Dark in grave, even though they are the only Dark's I run. The latter is an amazing card. It allows Additional XYZ Materials to be added to your XYZ monster's and when it is sent from field to grave you can add 2 Levl 4 Thunder Monster's with the same name from your grave to your hand, which acts as a Recycling Batteries in addition to it's main effect. Anyway enough Rambling, here is the decklist I currently use:
