Destroy Portalcraft Deck - How to Play

Play Followers and Prepare Cards You Can Destroy Later

In the early game, play followers like Lovestruck Puppeteer and Puppet Lancer while setting up cards you can destroy later with Devastating Soprano or Wasteland of Destruction.

Dig Through Your Deck Using Draw Engines

As you add more followers to the field, use World of Games and Wasteland of Destruction to draw cards and look for important cards like Lishenna, Imari, and Axia.. World of Games is especially strong because destroying your own followers lets you skip the countdown and draw right away, so don’t hesitate to sacrifice your own cards

Play White Psalm / Black Psalm

From the mid‑game onward, use Lishenna’s Evolution or Devastating Soprano to place three copies of White Psalm / Black Psalm onto the field. Playing Imari lets you search for a Spell,, which makes it easier to find Devastating Soprano when you need it

Use Devastating Soprano on Puppets or Amulets

Using Devastating Soprano on a normal follower loses you a lot of tempo, but you can avoid this by using it on Puppets or on Amulets with Last Words.

Clear the Field and Buy Time

From the mid to late game, use cards like Imari and Congregant of Destruction to remove your opponent’s followers and buy time. By slowing the game down, your Amulets will trigger more Last Words effects, helping you gradually pull ahead in terms of defense points (DP).

Use Axia to Deal Big Damage

Once your Super‑Evolution turn arrives, destroy your own cards with Axia to deal huge damage. Against opponents with little healing, keep playing Axia and Odin to burn them down. Against opponents with strong healing, aim for a burst finish after playing Beelzebub.

Chip away at enemy defense with Beelzebub's leader effect

At 9 PP, Beelzebub greatly increases the damage your Amulets deal. Finish the game by destroying your Amulets after applying Beelzebub’s effect.

Use Axia for a Quick Finish

Axia becomes extremely strong after Beelzebub. With three Black Psalms on the field, you can deal:

• 6 damage from three Black Psalms through Axia’s Super‑Evolution
• Up to 5 damage from Axia’s own effect
• 2 extra blast damage for a total of 13 damage

Combine this with other damage sources like Odin or Sweetness of Voracity to finish the opponent.

Finish with Orchis, Newfound Heart

In a Destroy Portalcraft deck, Orchis, Newfound Heart gives you another way to close out the game.After playing Beelzebub, Supreme King, you can even set up an OTK (One‑Turn Kill),letting you catch opponents off guard, especially those who assume you’re just using a standard Destroy Portalcraft deck.

Turning Psalms into Imari’s Little Buddies with Sincerity of the Dewdrop

While Destroy Portalcraft usually wins through damage from White Psalm, New Revelation and Black Psalm, New Revelation, this particular deck variant can take a different approach. Using Sincerity of the Dewdrop to transform your own Psalms into Imari’s Little Buddies is a strong option. This helps you put more useful units on the field and creates the space you need to play Orchis’s Puppets.

If you already have World of Games, Lovestruck Puppeteer, or Puppet Lancer, it’s a good idea to keep Wasteland of Destruction or Devastating Soprano so you can destroy World of Games or your Puppets.

How to Counter the Destroy Portalcraft

Keep Your Team on the Field

When fighting Destroy Portalcraft, always make sure you have followers out on the field. Your opponent will likely evolve Imari, Dewdrop to take them down. If you use cards that hit the whole enemy team for 3 damage, like Salefa or Izmir, you can turn the fight in your favor very quickly.

Don't Let Odin Attack You Directly

Filling up your side of the field is also very important right before your opponent can play Odin. Since Odin’s banishing power only hits one target, summoning several small followers is better than playing one big one. This way, your followers act as a shield and prevent Odin from hitting your leader.

Make it Tough for Them to Play Devastating Soprano

If your opponent plays Devastating Soprano without having Imari ready, they often leave themselves wide open because it is hard for them to clear your team at the same time. If you keep your side of the field full, your opponent will be forced to spend their resources clearing your followers instead of setting up their big plays.

Build a Team That Lishenna Can't Handle

Try to summon a group of followers that Lishenna can't get rid of easily. At 4 Play Points, Lishenna can only clear one follower and even if they plan to use her with Melodious Monody at 5 Play Points, you can make things very difficult for her by playing a few small followers alongside one tough follower with 5 or more health.

Banish White/Black Psalm with Sincerity of the Dewdrop or Odin, Twilit Fate

Using cards like Sincerity of the Dewdrop or Odin to "Banish" their White or Black Psalms is a great trick. Doing this stops them from healing or hurting you, which buys you more time to find your own lethal window while slowing them down.

Summon 3 or More Followers Before Beelzebub Arrives

Try to have at least 3 followers on your side of the field before the turn your opponent plays Beelzebub. If you can force them to use a Super-Evolution on him, it becomes much harder for them to deal massive damage with Axia later on. Also, if you have a follower with 10 or more health, Beelzebub won't be able to clear it!

If You Can't Keep a Team, Look for Your Own Lethal

For decks that don't usually keep many followers on the field, such as Rhinoceroach or Loot Sword, your best bet is to aim for lethal yourself. If you lower their health before they can play Beelzebub, they will be forced to focus on healing themselves instead of attacking you.
