Phoenix Military - Elemental masters and their dueling yojimbos ... it's about to get real! 

Stronghold - Shiro Shiba

Sensei - None

Apparently nobody expects Phoenix dueling since this deck has yet to lose in our limited playtesting. This deck is full of murder with five kill duel strategies, a brutal weapon package and the stronghold action. Throw in the amazing Duel of Champions and every battle is a guaranteed bloodbath.
