For many fans of the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG, Eldlich will be a familiar name when it comes to control decks. The main objective with an Eldlich deck is to stop your opponent from building their board by eliminating the use of monster effect combos. Chaining through trap and spell card will allow you to build a strong offensive board yourself.
Here's a video displaying some of the combos using the cards listed below.
Here's a look at some of the staple cards featured in any Eldlich deck:
